Comment:
If you apply yourself and do the homework assignments, you will succeed. Foos takes time to ensure that all students understand the concept prior to quizzing. Some strategies may not apply to all students but he does his best to try explaining from all angles.

Comment:
HORRIBLE!He got annoyed by any Q's that he thought we shld know, he was not willing to help and was very unapproachable. Once the semester ended I emailed him, hoping to stop by his office and discuss my grade. He told me he wldnt be in for the next few days. Well I walked by and he WAS IN THERE! He is very rude and doesn't care about his students.

Great professor.He does give a little bit of extra credit-so make sure you do it! A few small projects throughout, they are not bad at all. He doesn't grade them very harshly. The tests can be tricky, it is imperative that you go to class, take notes and read the book! The "My Development Kit" that goes along with the book is very helpful.Take him!

Comment:
I really wanted to like this class. Dr. Foos is not a good teacher. He is very vague, he is not clear and his test are very deceiving. He is famous for putting two correct answers down for one question w/o the double choice option. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOU GPA up. Not a hard class but his test kill it.

Research Methods 2 with Dr. Foos was the most frustrating class I've ever taken; he was unclear with all instructions, completely changed the syllabus to eliminate the final exam without giving an opportunity to earn that grade in another way; no guidelines for research paper

trusted the ratings for Foos and it was the BIGGEST mistake of my LIFE! Hate him, can't teach, isn't clear on directions, tests, papers. He tells you one thing and grades another. Save yourself and take RM2 with someone else. HORRIBLE PROFESSOR.

Great guy, funny. Even in a 3hr class he manages to keep you as interested as possible. Went into the class thinking it'd be boring, but it's turned out really interesting.Tests are medium-hard. As long as you study and go to class you should at least get a high B or A.

When they say "He wrote the book"... he really did. Wasn't too interested in the subject, but needed a psych credit.. he makes it SO interesting and he is really funny. Go to class! His tests are mostly from the lecture.

Dr. Foos is a great professor! He's willing to help, cares about students, & simplifies confusing material. Reviews the material & answers questions until u understand. Not an easy class, but if u go to class, keep up with notes, read the book, ask ?, and get any help u need with paper's, u will do fine! Highly recommend! Comical, too! :)

Great class and Dr. Foos is equally great. You're never to young to start learning about how you age and how you can help your loved ones as they age.

He wrote the textbook for the class so he knows everything about the topics without looking it up. The 3 hour version is too long and boring but it would not be bad with the usual 50 minute class. If you read and pay attention you will get atleast a B.
