COKLIN L
Great professor, but HARD grading. You definitely need to put in work in this class. There are so many papers and reports. My final report was 32 pages. It is not as bad as it sounds. Kind of. She is helpful with meetings and answering questions, but I think asking her questions makes me more confused. Dont take this for an easy elective.
Professor was a fine. She gives awful, I mean AWFUL criticism of your work. As for WRIT107G, if you have an intense course load, DO NOT take this class. It has nothing to do with global careers. Assignments are hours and hours of writing papers papers (due the Sundays before midterms). Not difficult, but a ginormous slop-bucket of menial busywork.
Professor Coklin is so sweet and she is really fun to talk to. Her lectures and slides are a little unorganized but her Canvas module is super in depth. She is a tough grader for sure and really cares about being punctual.
Ljiljana is a great professor and makes the material accessible to non-writing majors. Weekly readings, responses, and three papers. I found that she graded quite leniently as long as you put in the effort. I really liked the readings and the course overall. A lot of opportunities to get help and advice on assignments. Would recommend.
I love this professor. She is interesting and engaging, she gives lots of good feedback on your work and cares a lot. Her energy is cool and calm and she also wears good outfits which is inconsequential but still great. Love her, love this course, highly recommend.
Unclear instructions on what was expected. Harsh grader. If you want a writing class to get A-2 out of the way and boost your GPA, this is not it. Not much learning, more-so building your portfolio if you wanted to do the professional writing minor. You never really knew what the grading would look like or how on or off track you were.
I love Professor Coklin. She is extremely sweet, approachable, and caring. She leaves solid feedback on every writing assignment and also gives you the opportunity to resubmit one assignment. The class material is extremely helpful as well. I would 100% recommend taking this class with Professor Coklin.
Coklin was very understanding and caring when it came to class. She met personally with students and helped me develop my writing skills. While the assignments can be a lot, they all benefited me and taught me new ways of writing. I would recommend taking this class because it will be worthwhile.
Wow. I've never had a professor like her. She made me fall in love with writing and our projects have a creative multimedia aspect to them. Definitely looking to explore more classes with her in the future. She always goes around to each individual student and asks about their project and if they need any help. She truly cares!!!
She's the BEST! Super nice and understanding if you have problems submitting on time, gives detailed feedback on every assignment and really tries to engage w students. Made the course very creative. the grade is four main assignments and a biweekly "journal" writing assignment, but honestly not too much work if you don't hate writing!
Prof. Coklin is a great professor and assigns interesting and thought-provoking projects. I took this class online and she handled the situation really well and was always available and transparent about expectations and assignments. There were four major assignments and she gives a timeline to get everything done. Great class for writers!
She is by far the best professor I have had at UCSB. Her teaching method is clear, direct, and to the point. Assigned readings are useful and have a connection to the writing assignments. All assignments build nicely off of each other in culmination to the final project. You will gain practical skills and feel accomplished!
