Pros: His lectures are thorough and he tests on what he lectures on. He uses the textbook as a supplement. He answers practically every question students in the class has and even sends out answers after class if he couldn't answer a question during lecture.
Cons: He moves through material quickly but is willing to go back to something to repeat the information
Dr. Penn is a great professor, especially for PSYC 101. He's animated and keeps the class interesting. He does test on some examples and videos shown in class, so as long as you go to class and take thorough notes, you'll do well on the exams. Also, the papers he assigns are fairly easy and straightforward.

Pros: Extremely well taught class, by a humorous and intellectual professor who does a great job at integrating the large class into his lectures.
Cons: Lecture can be very dry sometimes and if you've had a long day this will be probably be your time to catch up on some sleep.
Really easy, fun, interactive class. Just make sure you go to class because his demonstrations are always on the test. Also, take good notes in class; he goes slow and thoroughly exactly what he wants you to know plus a study guide before each exam. Barely any homework and you don't even have to read the book. Highly recommended to anybody who will just go to class and do the work for an A
