I really enjoyed Language Development with Childers. Lectures and class discussions are fun and engaging. Most assignments are easy, but you need to read/memorize the textbook and understand the articles to do well on exams.

Dr. Childers is an okay professor- not the best, not the worst. Her classes are interesting but they aren't very engaging. She can be all over the place at times and monotone. The tests are HARD. If you don't read the articles and take good notes on the lecture, you won't pass. Study a lot and make sure you know the articles back and forth.

Language Development with Dr. Childers was an awesome class. Shes passionate about her subject and her lectures, so listening to her talk is a breeze. Theres a lot to read, but as long as you can participate some, youll be fine. Shes also a great listener and does respond to feedback about her class.

Talks to you like a child because she works with kids. The exams are easy if you know what the studies were about but the multiple choice were oddly specific. She grades papers kind of hard.

Took both development class with her and really loved her. Great professor who really knows her stuff. Tests are mainly on lecture but articles are extremely important as well. Not difficult to do well if you put in effort, she's really not out to get you.

Dr. Childers really wants people to do well. If you take good notes in class and know a summary of each article she gives you, you will do well on the tests. She is a generous grader on exams and curves once in a while. I recommend taking her classes.

Comment:
She really grew on me. the first time i had her i thought she was okay, but the second time i found her very informative. when she is talking about subject matter she really knows she is very clear, organized, and even funny. Its easy to follow along and the readings are usually good. the tests seem daunting but she is a pretty generous grader.

Comment:
I really liked Dr. Childers. She does talk to you like you are a child but what can you expect from someone who works with children a lot of the time? Her tests are essay tests that come mostly from information you learn in articles. It was sometimes intimidating to have discussions but I liked the class.

Comment:
Childers is alright. I'm being generous even then. Her lectures are tangental, most of class is student-directed, and she is EXTREMELY ambiguous as to what she wants on tests/assignment. Then during the test she wants the most miniscule details of everything covered in class despite "only having to cover main ideas." Ambiguity thy name is Childers.

Comment:
The lectures are a joke. Everything is based on the experiment readings that you do outside of class (or you're supposed to do). She is so nice and means well, but she talks to you like you're 3. All tests are essay and can be intense, if you don't read.

She is often available if you need her. The thing that helped the most to ace the class is her class lecture notes, more so than anything else.

You have to take good notes...the things she says aren't always consistent with the book and her multiple choice questions are sometimes unclear.

She's such a nice person once you get to know her. She really likes helping the students. 3 tests, 3 papers, most of which you can just BS. Good professor to take classes with if you're a psych major

Learning basics at the begining of the term is really really boring, but once the class starts up, it gets intruiging. Childers loves giving individual help. Attendance counts. She smiles constantly...in a creepy way, but she's really understanding and accomodating.
