Professor Scacci was an amazing Intro to Psychology teacher. He inspired me to reflect on what it means to be human, how we come to have the personalities that we do and why we behave as we do. His gifts for teaching are in presenting information in an interesting and pertinent variety of multimodal ways, assigning homework that calls forth reflection and critical thinking, teaching students how to understand rather than memorize, and eliciting consideration of the very fabric of what makes us who we are thereby creating an incredibly solid foundation for further psychological study. I am very grateful to have been one of your students.
