Dr. Ferretti was one of the most understanding and caring professors I have ever had. Enjoyed going to his class and he showed great videos! Class isn't mandatory, but tests are straight from the lectures with a few questions from the book. Course is 3 exams, 2 papers, and extra credit opportunities. Exams are easy if you study! 10/10 recommend!

Dr. Ferretti is awesome! Attendance isn't mandatory but if you don't show up, you won't get the notes. There are 3 exams, all straight-forward and only needed minimal studying. There are 2 papers which are also easy and straight-forward. There's an opportunity for 10 points of EC which is awesome even though the class is already easy! Recommend!

Really an incredible teacher! Go to class everyday, take notes, & study just a couple days before the exams and you'll do great! The tests kind of can be tricky but it's all covered in his lectures so there should be no surprises. He gives a lot of extra credit & he's so sweet & passionate about teaching

Amazing teacher! This is one of my favorite education classes I've taken so far. He really cares about everyone doing well and he is extremely knowledgable. 3 Exams, 2 papers and 2 field placements. Tests are straightforward and easy if you study and take notes from his lectures. Papers were easy to write and field placements were very interesting.

He is a great professor. He really cares about how his students do in the class. He's always willing to help with any questions or concerns. The test are kind of hard but if you study you'll be fine. The book is not worth buying. He has a lot of side comments that add to his lectures and you can tell he really enjoys teaching.

Ferretti is one of the absolute best teachers I have had at UD. He's very clear and knows his info. Book is only used for about 2 questions on each exam. Not worth buying when exam is primarily on notes taken in class. Class is not mandatory but if you want to pass the exam without buying the text you need to go. TAKE HIM!

He is VERY passionate about the class. I started to dread going to class after a while though because it was simply an hour and a half straight note taking.

This teacher was amazing, if you're interested in Special Education he's a great professor. Very intelligent, and knows what he's talking about. You can tell when he lectures that he really cares about what he's teaching. Powerpoints for everything, but doesn't send them out. It really helped me in making my decision to teach special ed. Great guy!

Comment:
This class was so easy. If you go to class and copy the notes down, you should do well in this class. The multiple choice tests he gives are straight from the notes you copy down. It'd probably be more interesting with Dr. Allison though since all you do in Ferretti's class is copy notes...no discussion at all.

He thinks we're in kindergarten, i swear. Literally takes 15 minutes to go over how to fill out a scantron for the test. The tests are straight from the notes, couldn't be any clearer. He reviews everything 100 times, you have to be stupid or absent to do poorly in this class.

The tests were tough - tricky M.C., but the papers helped my grade and the TA's study guides helped a lot. Is a little weird, but once you realize that he cares about the students,the class gets easier. If u want a challenge, take him. I got an A-. Cool T
