Prof Nield was knowledgeable about the subject matter, but his lectures would be much more helpful if he used powerpoint & Moodle.

Comment:
He's boring, old fashioned where he does not use technology, only 2 exams (midterm and final) dry lectures, nice guy though, and you HAVE to understand all of the examples in the textbook because the biggest and longest examples will appear, Good luck!

Worst Professor I've had at York. Boring Lectures, unclear, and does not explain concepts. The first exam was ridiculously hard, most people failed. However, the final was much easier!

Exams were difficult in the sense that questions felt extra jargon sensitive with some MC questions lacking clarity--Be sure to be 'a parrot of the textbook' for his class.'

Comment:
The course, book and the exams are really tough. He does not use powerpoint during his lecture or never upload any material online. It is really hard to hear what he is teaching so hard to take nots. You only can rely on the book which is the hardest book ever I have read. There are only 2 tests 45 and 50 worth each. I ended up C :((

Comment:
No need to go to class,extremely boring and doesn't cover much material-no slides, seems very unorganized. Not a good lecturer. Just read textbook and you will do fine, but unfortunately he packs in way too many chapters (2 per week) and he doesn't use moodle.

Comment:
Although the professor is a nice guy overall, he isn't necessarily a good lecturer. His lectures were basically pointless, he didn't post anything online or even have a powerpoint in class, he just rambles on and writes random key words on the board. The exams were alright though. As long as you study the textbook on your own, you should be fine.

This was not a bad course but so far my least fave psych course. Everything you need to know is in the textbook. I didn't take notes in his lectures cause it was impossible. That being said tho Dr. Nield is really nice and funny, but his lectures made no sense. VERY hard exams... class average was around 50%. thank goodness for the bell-curve.

Comment:
Very boring lectures-unorganized, lack of flow, gets off topic then looks through notes again-hard to stay awake! Could be better if he focused on more interesting details & planned better. Too much material for each exam & he does exams in a way that makes it complicated for himself rather than the standard way. Doesn't post on moodle.

Comment:
Although the material of the book is tough, he can't do anything to make it easier. I personally can't understand his lectures because of his tone. We only have two exams (mid,final) with too many material to understand for each exam, almost 7 chapter in each. It would be helpful to understand book if we could be tested in four exam, instead.

Personally: nice, laid-back. In class: contextualizes material with examples from life. Things are written on the board or projected for a reason-will be on test. Lectures explain/expand on text; attend (no ppt), & read closely. When studying: get major studies (names, findings) DOWN, and relate them to theories- be precise, MCs are tight.

This course is tough for a 3 credit. He is a wonderful person, i just wish the lectures weren't 3, hours. The material is boring, but i think he does his best. The exam was tough but i was shocked at how well i did, A+. If you want something easy, don't take it, but if you are willing to work it shouldn't be a problem for you.

Comment:
Very friendly guy who seemed to enjoy talking to students. Explained clearly with lots of real-life examples, and usually interesting ones. Occasionally, he would go off on tangents, but they were usually entertaining. Easily enough material for a full-year course though, so a lot of reading each week. Tests were not too bad, if you know the book

Very interesting professor who knows what he is talking about. Explains things quite clearly, with lots of real-life examples, although he does have a tendency to go off on (generally interesting) tangents. Tries to cover too much in only one semester though, with 2 chapters assigned each week. Exams are tough, but fair. Seems very approachable.

Professor Nield is a nice guy and from his lectures and the text you would think you would be able to get a good mark. Unfortunately he gives you only 2 tests worth 45 and 55% and his tests are very DIFFICULT. For a students used to getting A's and A+'s you can expect about a C+ (if you're lucky). The average mark in my class was an D.
