Volaitis was fairly disorganized for this cognition course and constantly switched her train of thought mid-sentence making her lectures nearly incomprehensible. She will ALWAYS drop 2-9 questions off each exam because they questions are terribly ambiguous (this is the reason I did well). Take Cognition with another professor and learn something.PSYC3466 2010-09-01 16:53:05 +0000 UTC

She's a sweetie. Not the most incredibly interesting but it's easy to do well and she really does cover a lot of important stuff for the Linguistics major.LIN464 2008-09-04 21:18:20 +0000 UTC
Very nice woman. Her lectures are Powerpoints which she puts on Blackboard. If you skim through the book to clarify, you're fine. A little boring, but she takes attendance randomly, so you might as well go. Her tests are pretty easy, very little homework.PSYU464 2008-04-03 12:30:36 +0000 UTC
Decent professor. She takes attendance randomly so if you want those points, show up. Make sure you read the book because nearly all of her powerpoints, which she posts on Blackboard, are directly from there. Exams are pretty straightforward and there is little homework. Pretty average class.PSY464 2008-03-16 11:40:49 +0000 UTC
