CollegeDr. D was a great professor and I loved her class this past quarter! We were mainly graded on attendance and participation in class, but mainly just show up and pay attention and you'll get a good grade. The TA's were amazing as well, and Diana made sure everyone felt welcome and safe in the classroom. I would 100% recommend taking her class!
Very nice professor and a fun class. The only thing I had to adjust to was not using Canvas for this class and not being able to see your grade until the last week. It is a time commitment because we go to an elementary school but it was a low stress class
She was so understanding and kind and made sure her classroom was a safe space. I enjoyed her so much you all wont regret taking a course with her. She wants to see her students succeed. We just had bi-weekly discussions about our life struggles and about the injustice in our school's education system.
One of the most compassionate professors I have ever had. The course was taught when we switched to online classes and she constantly checked in on her students. Grade consisted of weekly blog posts and a group project which you get all quarter to work on. Interesting videos every week and not a lot of reading. Not a harsh grader at all.
