CollegeSection heavy, I had Jack and Jess as my section leader and it was cool. Got uncomfortable because they make you talk, but its not too bad. Lecture attendance is a huge part of your grade so free points if you just show up and same with section. Overall chill course and pretty cool if you're a transfer.
The class was an absolute joke. The professor's job is pointless, she has a guest speaker in every lecture that rambles nonsense. Class doesn't teach you anything nor prepare you for anything and the section is like kindergarten with icebreakers every class. You receive an A if you show up and if you don't you won't.
2 homework every week and 2 activities reflection essays. Easy homework
attendance is mandatory but as long as you show up you basically get an A. easiest class on campus. super awesome. assignments are very easy. idk why she is rated so low it makes no sense to me.
Easy class, no exams, definitely worth taking if you need an A. Not being a transfer student herself, Dr. Parker lacks the skills needed to empathize with transfer students. Although she seems willing, she does she not like making accommodations for students. The concept of the course is great, but a different professor is needed.
I don't know why her rating is so bad. Lecture can be boring sometimes this was by far my favorite class because of the section. This class was so chill and you actually get to socialize with people. I was hesitant to take it because of Professor Parker's bad reviews, but take this class, you will not regret it.
