MCDB112 . Montell D J A Month Ago

She's not the best lecturer, but she clearly wants you to remember the content long-term, which means her tests are pretty fair, surface level, and thinking-based. Curves based on avg. of top scores, clearly wants as many students as possible to get A's. Very doable class.

Bro used Claude to make her slides and told us to use AI for homework. Cool class but bruh, the tests were weird, probably cause Claude made them.

Professor Montell is knowledgeable and made a subject that could easily be boring into something exciting. I loved the guest lectures and was so thankful for her recording lectures. I have seen feedback on here that her lectures are disorganized, I disagree. Sometimes her slides can be a bit redundant, but that just drives her point home.

Entire course disorganized. Seems like she didn't prepare for lectures or know what she was going to talk about. Slides crammed with little information. Doesn't respond to emails, has others do it for her.

Denise is a great professor and chooses topics that are very prevalent and interesting. Exams are entirely lecture based, so if you know the lectures you will be fine. I thought the class was graded very fairly and found it super interesting. I am sad I can't take it again.

She's nice, but her lectures are so hard to get through. It seems like she starts every sentence without knowing what she wants to say so she's constantly pausing to reword things or repeating herself. Her slides also don't have a clear relationship to the previous ones, so it's hard to understand her train of thought and connect different ideas.
