Comment:
Seriously one of my best professors. She gives awesome lectures and explains everything well. All tests are open note, so it is hard to make below a 90. A few writing assignments, but they're graded easily. She also gives extra credit, and records her lectures so you can participate in them later if you don't feel like going.

It is an easy class as long as you study well. She made great examples in class but wasn't my favorite professor. She didn't have much sympathy for students and didn't really care if you came to her asking for ways to do better in the class. The class was easy though as long as you pay attention in class and at least look over the textbook.

Really lecture-heavy and textbook-heavy, but generally manageable! Dr. Bernard moves really fast in her lectures, but she's SUPER knowledgeable and really takes her time with questions/concerns from students. The reading was... a lot. But the textbook is provided and tests aren't overly difficult. Definitely a fair assessment of the material.

Prof. Bernard was so nice. She did not give extra credit, but you get credit for simply participating in In-class activities and quizzes are pass-fail so its very easy to build your grade with those. She's funny and does a very good job of explaining psych concepts in a way that people who aren't psych majors can easily understand. YOU MUST STUDY!

Comment:
Professor Bernard is an amazing choice! She has a few assignments along with three tests. The assignments are fairly simple, as long as you do them well it should be fine. The tests are difficult. They are more conceptual and you have to know the material. She does go fairly fast in her lectures and the textbook is hefty, but all doable.

Though this class is not easy, she is a pretty solid teacher. Her tests are hard, but she gives quite a few opportunities to make good grades on homework and quizzes. She makes her lectures interesting, and answers every students questions thoroughly. She does move really fast in lectures though, so it can be hard to keep up if you are not focused.

Dr. Bernard is a great prof. I had to work for my A and it was a pretty close deal. Exams are pretty hard, I got low Bs on all of them and it was tough because that's where most of the points for the course come from. Do the online quizzes and go to class for clickers since those are the only freebie points. Also the studies are fun

Dr. Bernard herself was a pretty good teacher. She was very passionate about lectures. Easy quizzes. However, the tests were extremely difficult. She put way too many topics on each exam. Her test composed of lecture AND textbook material, which included over 400 pages for each test. She made this class way harder than it needed to be.

To get an A in this class you really have to study and read the textbook (with any professor), but Dr. Bernard was my favorite professor this semester. She makes class fly by and is constantly cracking jokes and making her lectures interesting. She is very helpful and clear on her expectations. Great choice.

Comment:
Dr Bernard is undeniably very nice. But, I strongly recommend you only take this class if you are a Psyc major. Tons of content is crammed into 3 units and there's a lot of outside reading you have to do if you want to perform well. This class ends up being more trouble than it's worth for an intro class/elective.

The exams are insanely difficult and the averages are atrocious. She is very generous with the way she grades homework and quizzes, but beware of the extremely challenging exams. The reviews will not fully prepare you for any of them.

She was a good teacher and I learned a lot during class and lectures. I enjoyed her projects, and quizzes weren't bad at all. However, when it came to the tests, it didn't matter how you much you studied, you were going to fail. I ended up having to drop the class because she overbooked herself and didn't give back our test til weeks later.

If you can take another professor she tries to fit way too many different topics into one semester. She is very passionate about psychology and that fact that it IS A SCIENCE, but do yourself a favor and go with another professor. All of my friends in other classes made A's while my friends and I in my class struggled. Exams are difficult for sure.

Dr. Bernard is so passionate about psychology! I would recommend taking her if you want to truly learn!! You do have to read the textbook & there are a lot of lecture slides. She drops several homework/clicker scores!! I would definitely take again!

Very nice professor that makes lectures entertaining and connects lecture material with examples that make it easy to remember. Attendance is taken by iClicker participation in class. Drops a lot of homework/iClicker points at the end. Non-cumulative final. One group project that is not hard but is tedious - start ahead of time. Homework is not bad

Dr. Bernard is really cool! She drops some low grades at the end of the semester so you'll probably get bumped up a little grade wise. There are homeworks but they're all online and not too hard. You'll have to use the textbook to study for tests, but overall tests aren't too hard.

She is the best! She's no nice and so good at teaching her subject. She also gives the perfect amount of work and her final is not cumulative. Participate and do your homework and you should finish with a high grade.

She was a solid prof. Attendance was need because you did get IClicker participation grades every week. Her lectures are very organized and she posts them on ECampus after she has gone over them. InQuizitive assignments twice a week. Easy A if you do all the assignments because she does drop quite a bit of stuff.

She is a very nice and intelligent professor, but her exams are extremely difficult. She tries to cram everything she teaches you into the exams so she rarely leaves anything out. Her lectures are fairly dry but she tries. Her papers aren't too bad, just show her you are putting in a good amount of effort. Don't take if you don't have to.
