CollegeTook 120L: Dr. Baham is nice enough but it was not good. Lectures are irrelevant to the research project that is the entire point of the class. Every week, there is an individual Eli review assignment, eli review peer review, in-lab group assignment and in-lab individual assignment. ELI assigned Thurs night due Fri night. TAs nice but unhelpful.
Dr. Baham is very sweet but her lecture style does not adequately prepare you for the exams. The homework and labs are graded harshly. I have studied alot for this class and put effort into the assignments; however, her lectures are rushed and do not connect to the material to the standard at which her exams are testing us.
She explains concepts oddly. She doesn't do a great job of connecting ideas from previous lectures, and I sometimes feel like she doesn't even know what she is teaching. She is ALWAYS late. She is late to lecture, late for posting grades, late for everything. Overall, an ok class. Nothing crazy, just not for me.
Professor Baham is truly so kind. Make sure to study for the midterm well. Exams are 70% of your grade being one midterm and one final. I recommend finding good study techniques like creating a question per slide/important term to ensure you understand the meaning/applicability. There are three reflection papers and they are graded easily.
I loved Baham, she is such a great lecturer and person all around. Pretty fair class despite having no study outline, just make sure to study everything since there is a lot of info, although mostly common sense. She loves what she does which makes it all better. Assignments and exams are all fair and not unfair at all. Take her classes if you can!
Baham is one of my favorite professors so far here. She's so passionate about what she's teaching, and she makes a lecture heavy class feel so exciting and interesting. Her exams are not difficult as long as you paid attention in class and reviewed each of the lecture slides (didn't need the book that much). Going to miss this course w/ her!
