I really enjoyed this course. I was nervous about the final paper at first, but the assignments throughout the quarter were extremely helpful in piecing my draft together. Also we had group quizzes and open note/book independent quizzes. I would definitely take another course with Professor Woods again!

This class had a lot of busy work that in the end didn't really help with the final assignment. Her lectures were not very easy to follow but you can access them online afterwards. She does use location based iclicker for attendance

Woods was a very good professor. The lectures were mandatory but if you paid attention the exams were manageable. Exams were open note, open book as well. The research paper felt daunting in the beginning but there were many assignments along the way to help build it. There is lots of busy work in the beginning that lightens up towards the end.

This class is very unorganized and the lectures are all over the place. Most of the content reviewed in lecture wasn't helpful for the final paper that is worth 35% of the grade. The final paper was very confusing and time-consuming.

SO MUCH BUSY WORK and you get no feedback. not a lot of clear criteria about the research proposal so it has been difficult writing it. the individual exams are also very difficult but she is a great professor.
