Very disorganized. She canceled class a good amount, and sometimes while you were already there or on the way. She seems like a fine person, but I did not enjoy how she taught this course. Homework felt like busy work and had little to do with exams. The exams were online but also had questions that seemed to come from nowhere.

This class is super easy and interesting. Lectures are optional as she records and posts them, and she uses iClicker for extra credit. There is only a short weekly homework writing assignment, 3 online tests, and a final group project. She is a bit unorganized as she often would cancel in person lectures last minute, but it never bothered me much.

Absolutely phenomenal class and teacher. Always clear on the curriculum and grading criteria. Do what you're asked, you will get an A. Whenever I had any technical difficulties, she was incredibly responsive and understanding. If you have any interest at all in this subject, take this class.

I suck at science but this professor made it feel easy and actually interesting to learn about. Very great GE for science if you are not science oriented.

She is disorganized a little bit. However, she made up mistakes very timely! She is not bad!

I don't get this class. Cox said that every quiz questions would come directly from lectures, but there were so many questions I had to use Google for. She said the textbook is optional, which is complete B.S. Many quiz questions require reading the textbook religiously.

Let me tell the truth. This course relys heavily on recorded lectures, however, she did awful job on expressing, which makes easy contents confusing! For instance, she said:"xxxx, and xxxx, and xxxx, and xxxx." The word "and" is the only word she used, you will have big trouble in figuring out the logic of her sentences! She is an awful instructor!

super easy class- grading was based on weekly homework assignments, a few podcast reflections, short presentation, and an online multiple choice midterm and final. Prof. Cox was super sweet (definitely a bit disorganized at times but nothing too serious) and the class was really interesting and covered a lot of different topics

Class was very easy. Weekly quizzes with 3 attempts. Midterm and final online. Easy disaster project. TA helps a lot with questions. Was a bit disorganized with uploading lectures and getting material to students on time but would extend deadlines when she did mess up. Would recommend for a GE, very very easy and interesting class.

This class was extremely easy, all the tests were online and open note, you go over homework in section, and there is no textbook needed. This was her first year teaching the class which you could tell by some disorganization, but overall a fine class. A very easy GE.
