OMG do not take Dr. Woods. She literally told us she likes to manipulate students and is good at it. I learned absolutely nothing in this class and attendance is mandatory. Reading articles takes forever and the material is super repetitive. Super easy class though for transfer students and a good GPA booster, but really unorganized class though.

She is very nice and I appreciate how helpful she in is office hours.

laughed at me when i went to office hours to ask a question. thats it.

This class was extremely easy and amazing for getting comfortable with classes at UCSB! You work in groups and get to meet new people and learn how to read research articles and discuss them. Woods is a great professor and really knows what she is talking about.

This class is ALL busy work. Most of my exams/assignments weren't graded going into finals week. She makes the course seem like it will be a breeze but it all creeps up on you. Only did well in this class because I knew most of the content from previous classes. She's super nice in OH though

Dr. Woods is okay as a professor. I found her lectures frustrating because her slides are messy and lecture explanations are all over the place, her hand drawn diagrams are very sloppy and no explanation really felt concrete to me. I did a lot of self study outside of class. She is a nice person though and welcomes questions and conversation.
