CollegeJennifer Gibbs has a dead behind the eyes look. I would not recommend her class. Lecturers were boring. Unclear and challenging test questions. Lack of awareness for her cis, white women privilege is unbearable unfortunately that's the only POV you will get in this class.
To be honest, I don't know if the comm department cracked down on her or something, or even if it's because she hasn't taught this class, but comm122 this quarter has been TERRIBLE. Boring lectures at 9am twice a week, strictly graded papers, and two very hard exams. Professor Gibbs is nice but this has been a bad class.
1 major group project, 2 papers, a midterm exam, and a video project. This class is not for the weak. Concepts learned in the class were very interesting and Prof Gibbs is a great lecturer but if you want an easy class to take this is not it. Papers were graded leniently. Midterm was pretty good because of how helpful the study guide provided was!
Dr. Gibbs is very smart and kind and lectures on contemporary topics that are very interesting. I wish the writing assignment instructions were a bit clearer. Also, I'm not a huge fan of group work, and a large portion of the grade is a big group research project. The course structure wasn't my favorite but the class is interesting and manageable!
I enjoyed taking this class in S22! I always looked forward to coming to lectures. Grading consisted of a topic video project (15%), two writing assignments (15% ea.), a midterm (20%), and a group research project (35%). You worked on the group project throughout the quarter so it wasn't difficult. I would recommend this class & professor!
Prof Gibbs is a very caring and intelligent lady. The lectures are engaging and inspiring. Papers and tests are graded generously as long as you work. Easy A!
