Textbook reading and quiz on the reading every week. No final, just a normal chapter exam. One group project, requires minimal work with group outside of class. Likes to ask students about relevant experiences with the subject, so it's good to participate in discussions.

Professor Burwell is my favorite professor I've ever had. She is so funny and makes the material interesting. As long as you write down all the notes she talks about in class then you will be fine. I actually did not mind attending her class, it wasn't a hassle at all.

I love Professor Burwell, shes super sweet and really cares about her students. I took Theories of Counseling with her and she made the class so enjoyable and interesting. There was an online quiz and video activity for each chapter, 4 tests and one paper. I highly suggest taking her for any class that you can.

Burwell is awesome! Ive taken Buddhist Psych and Adolescent dev with her and both were super easy. For Ad Dev theres online quizzes every week that you get 3 tries at and she drops the 2 lowest quiz grades. Tests are pretty much exact questions from the quizzes. Basically an easy A with a super great Professor

I love Professor Burwell, she is passionate and excited to teach the information making it so much easier to stay focused. I wouldn't recommend skipping class because the information she teaches is all on the exam. She is the first professor that I enjoy going to her class. Definitely, recommend! Just study and you will do fine!

Comment:
Had her for theories of counseling and she is the sweetest, funniest teacher ever. She keeps her lectured entertaining often including clips and jokes, and also keeps you involved through participation, but never makes you speak unless you want to. Her tests are fairly easy if you know the material and gives options for open responses.

Taking her for Buddhist Psych online and she's amazing. Seems so sweet and understanding, would love to take more classes with her. A lot of reading and work is due almost everyday but it's so easy to follow along and do assignments. She also gives tons of free passes on work so you don't have to do every single assignment. Overall great prof!

Professor Burwell to me was very difficult and she helped the whole way through via email and in class. One paper, Group presentation and four exams excepted. Be prepared to study because most of exam stuff all from the book. NOOOOO EXTRA CREDIT. unless you show super positive effort through the semester. Very caring and motivates students.

She is a wonderful teacher. She really cares about your success. However, she will not chase you to do your work. If you need help ask for it she is an understanding women. The class is really interesting and she values class participation.

NO respect for students with accomodations. Focuses way too much on participation rather than that you understand the content. Hard to meet with for office hours.

I have taken Burwell two semesters in a row and plan to take her again next semester. Four exams, theory worksheets, one paper, and participation matters. She's a great professor and cares about her students success. You can tell she loves what she's teaching. The tests aren't bad, as long as you study for them!

Dr. Burwell is considerate and knows what she is talking about. She has command over the classroom so that it is not chaos without being too intimidating. She grades assignments fairly and makes class enjoyable! Would take again!!

I absolutely loved Rebecca Burwell! The class can be a challenge at times, she moves quickly over material, but shes enthusiastic about the material. Four exams, a paper, and a classroom discussion based on an article she provides is the only grades for the semester along with attendance and participation. Highly recommend taking a class with her!
