Reviews of professor Henry Cowles

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
quirky guy and the lectures are very abstract, but the class is easy enough! small group collaborations each week with other students on zoom. cowles is strange, but cares for his students and makes it pretty straight forward. Wouldn't say this is a typical psych class though if that is what you are used to.

I would agree with the last comment and most comments already on here. I want to note tho that sometimes I dose off when he lectures and he can sometimes go in circles. Other than that I would highly recommend!

Prof Cowles is great! He made the most engaging recorded lectures I've encountered since the pandemic started. He's clearly very passionate and knowledgable. He asked for (anonymous) student feedback multiple times throughout the semester and actually made changes to the course to reflect it. He's quirky and makes dad jokes, but that's a good thing

I really loved this class. The lectures were really interesting and he would make adjustments to them if people asked him to. He's pretty funny and him and the GSIs made the class really interesting. They graded through participation and 3 essays so you have to make sure you put in the work to get an A but its not meant to be your hardest class.

HIST265 was the best class I have ever taken at Michigan.  he is so interesting and is so passionate about everything he teaches. He is very cognizant of what students need and want and has made numerous changes to grading policies because students have asked/ to make things easier. discussion is not super hard, just participate and do the work.

Professor Cowles is INCREDIBLE! The workload is manageable and he continuously got students' feedback in order to improve the course
