Comment:
Dr. Harvey is easily one of the top 5 teachers in my entire academic career. Funny, respectful toward his students, and understanding. He's just a cool guy that wants to help you pass his class. We had 4 tests (12 multiple choice - 2 math) and one two page paper. Completely manageable. If you show up and participate you'll do well.

I'm going to miss watching him pace the room for over an hour lol. He is a very animated talker and loves it when the class participates. I dreaded this class but it isn't actually math heavy and prof Harvey makes it interesting. He is always willing to answer any questions and seems to genuinely care. 10/10 would recommend.

Dr. Harvey is super funny and always makes class interesting. Go to class take notes and ask questions and you'll do pretty good on his 3 exams. For the Labs/essays ask questions he always answers and don't procrastinate.

He is a very engaging teacher. If you take notes in class then you have everything you need to study for the 3 exams. He also gives thorough study guides for each exam. No textbooks and minimal reading assignments.

I loved Dr Harvey. He is very organized and a clear teacher. Very easy to meet up with outside of class, and encourages students to contact him with any questions. That being said, I found his tests to be hard and the research proposal was long and extensive. Even though the work was tough, hes a really nice guy and a great teacher.

Dr. Harvey was hilarious in class! I took his 8 a.m. class and he made most of my mornings really enjoyable. Even though most of the time I almost fell asleep (because I am not a morning person), he always finds a way to make the stuff we are learning more fun.

Dr. Harvey was the *first* person that made stats click with me, and thats after STAT185 and RMI. His instruction leaves for zero grey area/confusion, as he if very thorough and makes sure 100% of his classroom is understanding everything. This means that if you have a question, don't be afraid to pipe up! He's wonderful professor, TAKE HIS CLASS!!

Best math teacher I have ever had BY FAR (even though the class is research methods). Really knows how to help his students understand stats concepts. The class isn't difficult, but he doesn't just spoon feed you either. I loved the class and looked forward to it (even at 8:15am!) The best teacher I've had at UNCA so far.

A very enjoyable teacher to have. Really funny and engaging. Research Methods 2 is a pretty dull subject, but he brought a lot of spice to the subject; used a lot of relevant yet funny analogies, explained everything clearly, went over everything multiple times. I didn't buy the book. I took the 8am and it wasn't a hard class to stay awake in.

Harvey was a good professor, very helpful outside of class. I had the flu and was out for a week and he worked with me individually to make up work. you have to come to class because you do a lot of labs that you must be there to gather the info. I have to say that near the end of class he began to make semi per*erted and obscene jokes.

He's one of the best professors I've had at UNCA. He's really nice, explains the material well, and very helpful. If you keep up with the class (read, study, do homework), it's easy. If you slack a bit, it's more difficult.

He IS high energy but that is exactly how a professor should be when teaching a course that some can find less than exciting. He is very easy to talk to and makes himself available for extra help. I'm taking him again for another course and totally recommend him to prospective students.

Took in the morning. DO NOT do that if you are not a morning person. He is very high energy, but explains the material thoroughly and makes clear what is on the test. Managed to bomb the final for god knows what reason so I was left with a bad taste. The rest of the class was a lot of fun but much harder than Psyc 201 with Dr. Brown.

He's hilarious and makes research methods fun, somehow. He's also a really great teacher. Do homework, study, and as long as you're not awful at math you'll do well.

He's awesome. As long as you do your homework you'll be great. I don't think he's spacey at all, and he sticks to the text book so it's easy to study for tests.

Nice guy. A little too all over the place. The class is really hard. He wants to help, but he is so high-strung and spacey and not very good at explaining things. He was SO understanding, though, when I was having trouble and needed extra help several times a week! Always willing to meet you outside of class if you need help which is a plus!
