CollegeUnclear instructions on what was expected. Harsh grader. If you want a writing class to get A-2 out of the way and boost your GPA, this is not it. Not much learning, more-so building your portfolio if you wanted to do the professional writing minor. You never really knew what the grading would look like or how on or off track you were.
Coklin was very understanding and caring when it came to class. She met personally with students and helped me develop my writing skills. While the assignments can be a lot, they all benefited me and taught me new ways of writing. I would recommend taking this class because it will be worthwhile.
Wow. I've never had a professor like her. She made me fall in love with writing and our projects have a creative multimedia aspect to them. Definitely looking to explore more classes with her in the future. She always goes around to each individual student and asks about their project and if they need any help. She truly cares!!!
She's the BEST! Super nice and understanding if you have problems submitting on time, gives detailed feedback on every assignment and really tries to engage w students. Made the course very creative. the grade is four main assignments and a biweekly "journal" writing assignment, but honestly not too much work if you don't hate writing!
