Dr. Alves is an absolute gem. She really cares about her students. MAKE THE EFFORT TO GET TO KNOW HER. She tells a lot of funny stories which makes class really entertaining. She wants to see you be successful and pass her class. She is very accessible outside of class and responds to email promptly. She is the absolute best!!

She can get off topic but in a good way. All her lecture definitely do influence your grade based off of your notes. It is a very fast paced course but it can definitely be interesting and easy as long as you stay on top of your stuff. Quizzes are easy and honestly so are the exams. Plus she offers extra credit!

5 tests that are 50% of your grade. there's itnquizitives to do every week and a half. There is extra credit at the end of the semester which is easy. You have to show up because she does attendance randomly. Overall should be an easy A if you just show up to class.

Dr. Alves wants her students to not only succeed but understand what they are learning. She came in halfway through the semester after our other teacher was fired, told my group our design was worthless and helped us design our experiment. Her enthusiasm for the subject is apparent and I am taking her again for another class.

Dr. Alves brought a lot of energy to the class and was able to engage our Cognitive psych class well. Tough considering much of the class is about reading research and pop-quizes about metathinking. Participation is graded.

Very funny and personable professor. She is very direct about whats on the exams. Drops your lowest scores. Easy class if you pay attention
