COMM121 . 8 Months Ago

Class consists of 3 conflict journals (~1 page each) and a conflict reflection paper (~2 pages) but are kinda fun assignments. 2 pop quizzes (lowest score dropped), 5 in class activities (super easy), and a midterm and final (40 question MC and T/F). You don't need to read txtbk, just go to lecture and read your notes/study guide for the tests.

I lost a lot of respect for Prof myers. I truly enjoyed her class, but I went through a lot of difficult personal, family issues this quarter that caused me to not do well in this class. I explained to her what I was going through with proof and she was not understanding whatsoever. I was disappointed as I had really enjoyed her class until now

Meyers is incredibly kind. She took a topic that could easily be dull and made it genuinely interesting. The testing and assignment grading were very fair and the lectures were engaging and felt highly applicable to real-world scenarios. Test questions were nothing unexpected (she has a study guide). 3 discussion posts that were not bad.

My first time having Prof Myers and I loved her so much that I signed up for her two classes in Fall! Material is super digestible and applicable, so much so that lectures aren't too boring. Grade consists of 2 easy pop quizzes, 2 in-class activities, weekly discussion posts on PackBack, and a mc midterm and final. One of the best profs out there!

Karen is really caring, passionate, and knowledgeable about organizational comm! I found doing the textbook readings and thoroughly filling out the study guides and notes (not just filling in the blanks but adding extra details from lectures) will go far! Most of the grade is exam-based so early preparation and attending lectures greatly helped.
