Most Helpful Review
Spring 2022 - THIS IS A REVIEW FOR EDUCATION 128: EDUCATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY. This course was one of my favorite education courses I ever took here at UCLA because our lectures were always so engaging and fun! This professor is so kind and tries very hard to make her teaching effective, engaging, and enjoyable! I liked the balance we had in this class between group work, individual assessment, and class discussions. It was so fun to stop to do quick activities during lectures, like pausing to watch short video clips or test our own memories, in accordance with what material we were learning in class. The professor was constantly trying to adjust her curriculum and teaching to figure out what worked best and to help each student succeed to the best of their abilities. This was so appreciated. I loved the assessments in this class. She designed the course in a way to minimize student stress while also creating activities that were effective in improving our learning and measuring our understanding. The professor would positively curve the test to accommodate for questions that were unclear or ones that most of the class got wrong. It was so understanding, reasonable, and kind of her. It allowed for students to enjoy the class for what it was and not have to stress and worry so much about the grade aspect. Our group work was reasonable and actually pretty fun. The 3 quizzam (3 smaller quiz/exams instead of a bigger midterm and final) format was AMAZING. I have nothing but good things to say about this class and the professor. This class was very accommodating to health, personal, and COVID-related needs. They were flexible in having Zoom as an option for any of these needs. The due dates were reasonable. They broke up our big group project into smaller assignments, which also helped! I formed closer peer connections in this class than I was able to in any of my other classes here at UCLA. Something about the environment and atmosphere that this professor created made it such a great space for students to participate, meet others, and get engaged with one another and the material. We had these teams that we stuck with the whole quarter which I really liked because it was a lot easier to meet a few people and get close with them throughout the quarter as opposed to switching groups multiple times, which would have made it harder to form closer connections. Would absolutely recommend this fun, engaging, and informative class to others. I had a fantastic time and learned a lot.
