CollegeDunbar is clearly super knowledgeable about her subjects which is super cool to learn from. She uses a menu grading system which is confusing but nice once you get a hang of it. you basically choose what assignments you want to do.
Taken online. weekly discussion posts and quizzes (easy). final paper (super easy). My type of class.
Professor Dunbar is a really fair professor in the comm department. I thought her lectures were concise and made the class content easy to follow.
Norah is a good lecturer and she is available for office hours if needed but she is not a very empathetic person. Also, she does not do any lecture about the book which I really don't understand why. The online course is very organized but I would not take the class if you want a motivational and inspirational course.
I really LOVED this class. Very straightforward. Only Dr. Dunbar could make an online course just as fulfilling -if not more fulfilling- than an in-person class and I usually hate online classes. I also took Deception with her and both classes were amazing. She keeps lectures short and doesn't simply restate what we read in the textbook. Take it!!
The best comm professor ever taken! Highly recommended!
