Comment:
Although this class was online and had no in-person class sessions, Professor McGowan was very lenient with deadlines and extensions. The whole course is reading and watching videos, but is very interesting. You really have to read to do the homework which take about 2 hours to do. Tests and quizzes are easy, all based on the hw and open book!

Prof. McGowan also teaches at NCC. He is an outstanding prof. We had 4 exams total. He assigned 2 extra credit assignments, 1 library assignment and then a final 5 page research paper. He doesn't speed. He wants everyone to learn and understand. I hope he can teach other psy classes. You will def. learn. He is easy to talk to.

Prof. McGowan is a wonderful teacher. He doesn't give a lot of homework, just about 5 to 6 assignments throughout the semester. Two take home test. Plus, as long as you buy the book and take notes in class you are good for the midterm and final. JUST TAKE THE CLASS AND YOU WILL SEE. GREAT PROFESSOR

AMazing Professor! Forsure take if you have the opportunity. He is nice, very interesting, and you learn way more than you think you are. He gives only essays and home assignments which take time to do but are very interesting. I would recommend him VERY HIGHLY!

He is the BEST professor ever!! I took 2 classes with him and really enjoyed his online classes...he's funny. He just wastes some time in the beginning of class so we get dismissed later but still earlier than the time we should be getting dismissed. He's an easy A.

Comment:
Spring 2007. This is his first semester at NEIU and I highly reccomend him. He is clear with course expectations and grading. I had no trouble understanding his lectures. His best quality is keeping the class involved and putting the time to try and relate the course to what us students will see in the workfield later.
