CollegeFrustrating experience from her section. Class performance on the participation quizzes echos this, with a 50/50 distribution on the right and wrong answers. Instead of taking the time to clarify, she moves on to another topic. Plant bio was one of the toughest parts of the course, and her lack of care towards explaining anything made it harder.
Lectures are unclear and boring
She might know stuff but she doesn't care if you do. She is completely disinterested in helping students succeed in her class.
Since it was Her first time teaching I think she really wasn't sure on how to teach the class. The midterm was relatively workable and easy while the final was extremely hard and long. She isn't clear sometimes on the material and what you're going to be tested on. The Final was literally everything we learned,majority short answer
Uses powerpoint for her lectures. However, sometimes it's hard to be sure what is important or not. In Section, assigns a scientific paper to read and do a summary on, unless it's your turn to give a presentation on the paper. Is a pretty lenient grader. Lectures can kind of drag on, but a nice professor.
