Comment:
prof. Brotzen is one of my favorite professors I have had, she is a very sweet woman, and she is very passionate about psychology. she does not make class mandatory but it is very good to go to class because he breaks down the module even more. there are quizzes every week, 4 core assignments and 4 test, if you study the material you can pass easy.

She was so difficult to get in touch with, and she gave weekly quizzes that you only had 5 minutes to complete. She showed up on the first day and told us that we wouldnt have a syllabus for the class bc she didnt feel like making one over the summer. Her exams werent extremely difficult, but you HAVE to study for this class.

Comment:
Took it as a hybrid class, unlike most professors, when you actually attended class it did not help at all. Assignments and lecture notes wouldn't be posted until Wednesday but everything due that following Sunday. Also, the quizzes are 5 questions but based heavily on the videos in the notes, but focused on the most insignificant details. poor com

Professor Brotzen is all right you will pass the class but on the core assignments she grade pretty hard. Her test is what she says in class and on her modules so if you pay attention to them you be fine. I didnt really need the book but it is helpful.

Brotzen is a great professor that is very down to earth and honest with her students. She uses examples and videos to make theories easier to grasp. Attendance is taken on the occasion but make sure to be there when she does take it. Your grade in the class depends on your grades on the tests, so studying is a must and all tests are online.

Dr. Brotzen is a great teacher, she may seem a bit scary at first but she is a very nice person and a good professor she is very funny. She goes over a lot of material in the class time, I would show up to all the classes. You need the textbook, a lot of her test comes from the book. All the test are online.

Julie Brotzen was one of my favorite professors! She is very funny and makes class very interesting with all of her stories! This class has 4 tests, which you take by yourself in the computer lab on test day. Attendance was not mandatory in the beginning of the semester, but was a grade later in the semester. Loved it and would take again!

Brotzen is a really cool professor, she knows what she is talking about and enjoys what she teaches. Her class can be really lecture heavy, so it is real hard to take notes and you never know when you have to read out of the textbook, but she does let you know a week before the test what to expect. The tests are online which is amazing!

Comment:
Brotzen is super easy. 4 online exams, extra credit paper if you want to do it, and a small attendance grade. This class shouldve been more interesting than it was; however, it was dull and more than half the class stopped coming 1/4 of the way through. She can be quite monotone, but if you stick with it and take good notes, its an easy A.

This class was pretty easy, you don't have to show up every day. You will have to put in a little extra effort if you want an A. Study your lecture notes and read the parts of the textbook she goes over in class.

Easy going professor and easy going class. No homework and no quizzes. You only have 4 tests, 12 R points (research points you receive by participating in online studies), and one essay towards the end of the semester.

Professor Brotzen doesn't give out homework. You're given four or five tests (I don't remember) and they're all graded evenly so you don't have to worry about the "midterm" and "final" being weighted more than any other test. Even though attendance is taken in class I suggest it as Prof Brotzen goes over topics that are going to be on tests.

Good teacher that doesn't really care. She teaches to those who want to be taught. Book is not a must but a really good idea if you don't really pay attention.

One of my favorite professors. Super knowledgeable on every topic she teaches. Lecture can be boring but you must pay attention in order to pass. She's to short and to the point. Four test, all online.

She is very nice and passionate about her subject, but her lectures are the worst thing I've ever attended. Her tests are pretty tough, but they are all online so it's do-able. At the end of the semester, there is an essay due, but it's only over one thing you learned during her course. Easy A if you care and read a lot.
