No complaints about Nan, solid instructor and interesting lectures. This course has a short, non formal writing assignment due every other week based on class material. There is a group paper which consists of 12-15 pages, so I would suggest you start early so you have little to do at the end and since it is the largest portion of your grade.

Nan is an amazing person who cares for her students. Class consisted of 3 small papers, an online midterm and a group final paper(12-15 pgs). The midterm was a tougher/more in-depth than expected but she curved it. Group paper could be tough but go to office hours and she will help! Overall, pretty easy course and super relevant content!

i took her small group communication class expecting it to be more interactive and focused on group activities. she is a nice professor, but a lot of the class time is spent in long lectures or tangents, which made the class feel less engaging and a bit misleading based on the course title. it felt more like lectures with brief group meetings.

Each week we were assigned readings, had to respond to a discussion prompt & then respond to another classmate, and then a short 10 question open note/book quiz. I learned a lot from this class and a lot of the material was really engaging, even the pre-recorded lecture videos as they were quite short. Super easy A and wasn't much work at all

I really enjoyed professor Wilkenfeld and the content of the class, it was very interesting. The class consisted of a weekly discussion post and quiz, with one paper.
