I found her tone pretty dull and quiet. However, the class material is really interesting and she assigned readings on an wide variety of topics. The movies we watched in class were engaging and eye-opening. The class is generally easy but the midterm and final exams were very long and tiring.
Great Lecturer, she repeats and emphasizes things that are important to remember. If you do all the readings and listen in class, you will not have a hard time in this class. I highly recommend Gordon she is a great professor and has some good books out too.
I really enjoyed Professor Gordon's class. It was all very insightful but you are required to participate since you have to grade yourself on that. Sometimes her lectures are a little bit boring but there not too bad. There was 8 briefs to do but she was not a tough grader. Overall I enjoyed her class!
Professor Gordon has good stage presence and is very knowledgeable. The topics she chooses are very relevant and fun to discuss. There are no papers for her class and attendance is not mandatory, but you should go because she says important things for the midterm and final. Midterm and final consist of short answer, t/f, multiple choice and essays
I entered SOC 1 very confused because her lectures are sometimes all over the place. The readings really help so make sure to go over the reading questions and key concepts often. I rewrote everything because there would be a new topic every single week which can be difficult to remember during the exam. Overall, I left the class more educated!
A lot of reading, but it is pretty interesting. Gordon is ok, a little dull but not bad. Very political. Tests are long and a bit of a pain but the quizzes are easy.
