She is very nice and always willing to help or answer a question.  Test questions, while multiple choice, give situational assessments rather than just factual information. Strongly recommend taking 311 with her, she made it interesting, yet not too difficult.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/813369","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":2.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:12:45.614779+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTE3NjgzOTI1","source_instructor_id":"rmp:813369","instructor_name":"Patricia Coffey","course_label":"PSYCH311","course_id":"PSYCH 311","course_uid":"course_15ee6ce38efe5ef07c9e910f","review_date":"2010-10-22 17:39:57 +0000 UTC","comment":"She is super nice and so helpful. Always willing to take questions and talk after class. If you're at all interested in criminal justice/forensic psychology, definitely take this class! No textbook, only two books and some articles. Take home exams are interesting and make you think about important issues (like "not guilty by reason of insanity").","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/813369","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":1.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:12:45.614779+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTE3NjgzNjEw","source_instructor_id":"rmp:813369","instructor_name":"Patricia Coffey","course_label":"PSYCH311","course_id":"PSYCH 311","course_uid":"course_15ee6ce38efe5ef07c9e910f","review_date":"2010-10-22 16:00:16 +0000 UTC","comment":"Very interesting material and awesome professor!","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/813369","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":1.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:12:45.614779+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTE3NTM2NTQ5","source_instructor_id":"rmp:813369","instructor_name":"Patricia Coffey","course_label":"PSYCH311","course_id":"PSYCH 311","course_uid":"course_15ee6ce38efe5ef07c9e910f","review_date":"2010-08-22 14:42:06 +0000 UTC","comment":"Excellent prof, tell stories of her extensive experience to make points clear.

He is so nice and really genuinely cares about his students learning and he is so approachable. Professor Pollak is one of the best professors at UW-Madison!

I highly recommend anything that he teaches!","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/176712","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":1.0}]
