Most Helpful Review
This class seems very difficult but in reality isn't. The class is basically concerned with all sorts of scientific studies pertaining to what our bodies/motion convey to others (both lectures and readings). You will learn about each study - hypothesis, method and findings - and be tested on them. You actually have to do the readings for this class because they will be covered on the exam. While there seems to be a lot of material, and the exams seem to be difficult, she curves very VERY generously. I thought some of the studies that we covered in class were pretty interesting. Others were okay. She also posts her powerpoints online, which is helpful. There are three exams; you get to drop the lowest one. There is also a paper in which you summarize a scientific study.
