CollegeSuper caring/accessible professor. (was a new professor this year). Tests are based on lecture material, discussion section, end-of-week quizzes, preview questions (just watch lectures (are recorded) to get an A) Really good at explaining material/helping you understand, breaks material further down during office hours. AN ABSOLUTE GODSEND!!!
My favorite professor here thus far. Lectures are engaging and you can tell she is passionate about what she teaches. Accessible outside of class if you need her. The tests are straightforward and fair, and there is a greater emphasis on learning rather than test taking. I cannot speak highly enough of her, take her class!
LOVE HER! Her lectures are super informative. If you don't understand, she breaks the content down even more during office hours. Her class is also structured very nicely, and her assignments are straightforward. You are going to have a group project, but you're graded individually. Just meet the deadlines and show effort in your work - easy A.
Such an interesting class, and Prof. James is amazing! Assignments are very straightforward and anything brought up in exams is explained in lecture several times, so you never feel blindsided. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone looking for an easy, interesting class - even if you don't know how to surf.
Hands down one of the best professors you can find. She goes out of her way to make sure that you understand all of the course material and is super available to answer questions! She's also very understanding during the Coronavirus pandemic, making the class less stressful overall. I would 100 percent recommend this professor to anyone.
Shay is the sweetest. She was always available to talk and help (even gives put her phone number and offers to FaceTime students). She gives good and thorough feedback on papers. She really cares about her students and even let us out early once because everyone was dead from midterms. Also a fair grader. Not hard to please, just put in effort.
