Class was okay. Digital forum postings every week that were turned in with works cited. One issue I had was that a specific TA was critical when grading work going so far as to mark off a half point on a 10-point assignment for a missing period in a citation. She takes attendance by passing around a piece of paper that often went missing etc.

lecture slides were disorganized and lengthy, but got by with taking basic notes and skimming readings. she does require academic writing responses every week but if you listen to the t/a feedback you'll be ok. final was lengthy but she gave us the prompts a week in advance which helped a ton. overall i really enjoyed this class

It wasn't that bad just one writing assignment a week and a final. The lectures were disorganized, but the readings were the most helpful. honestly just do the readings and it should be okay

Not a very good lecturer, she jumps around timelines and never goes in chronological order. She also just says too much stuff that its really hard to follow. However, if you are looking for an easy A I do recommend this class just don't expect to learn much. My TA Meridith was very helpful and a lot better at teaching then her.

Her lecture slides are somewhat disorganized but it isn't too bad. She is really sweet and always eager to talk to students, plus she responds to emails pretty quickly. One (very small) writing assignment per week about the material, no midterm, and an online final. Despite what most people are saying, this class is really easy and I recommend it.

The way she organized her slides was very out of order, jumped around a ton. I think she also speaks a lot about things other than what we are currently learning and thinks we're all dance majors which is confusing. Besides the actual learning, she is very nice, wants to see us do well, and likes to take input from the students which I appreciate.
