Professor Segura was a very nice lady, but her class was a complete disaster. It ended up being online, which made things even worse rather then easier. We would get assignments back 5 weeks after we turned it in. It was just really bad. She is very passionate on the topic but the structure needs a lot of fixing. Also the TA was a HARD grader.

Awful Professor that expects you to recall everything she says during lecture and wants you to quote them in the assignments. Lectures aren't in the least bit interesting and are quite repetitive. You essentially have to brown nose her by frequently speaking in class in hopes that she raises your grade at the end.

Professor goes on random tangents throughout her lectures and is passive aggressive when asked questions. Her TA grades extremely harshly and nitpicks on little details. I tried my hardest to follow his critiques but given that there are only 3 assignments, I couldn't improve by much. Short story: don't take the class. It is awful in every regard.

This is the second course I have taken with her, that was a mistake. She is disorganized and disinterested based on her tangental side lectures and preference to make her TA's do all the work. Her finals and reflections are extremely limiting in that she expects students to note down every word a peer says and incorporate it weeks later!

This professor during her lectures was all over the place, not focused and was always going off topic. Her homework was easy but make sure you turn it in on time because she is very strict on deadlines and she does not work with students on late assignments. Professor needs time management skills. Her TA was also not helpful and was also not clear

Amazing teacher, super easy to understand, when it came to the midterms and papers she often tells you specifically where to look in order to be able to pass the class. She is caring and open with her class and often engages in conversation but overall super sweet professor.

Avoid this professor! Disorganized class and would not recommend. The final and midterm were hard and you are expected to learn on your own. I did not learn anything from this class and i would avoid this class at all costs.

Unorganized class. Sometimes lectures were posted late (understandable). Not very considerate of students. Midterm, final paper, and final exam. The midterm and final exam were difficult. You need to do the readings (some are long) in order to take the exams. Gave extra credit opportunities though.

Segura is an engaging and challenging professor. She's charismatic, is vulnerable with her class, and consistently finding humor. While doing so, she is also extremely passionate about her teachings and opens your eyes to readings and lessons that are impactful. The more you put into the course, the more you get out of it.

All based on the readings. Her power points were confusing and provided no help. Goes on tangents all throughout class yet still expects you to know and understand the material she did not go over. You are left to learn and understand the course by yourself.

Her class felt all over the place and disorganized. She gives a ton of reading and almost exclusively tests you on the readings but wont give you titles, shell refer to them by their last name but theres over 15 different authors. She would go on tangents in lectures and then make us learn the material on our own.

this class was actually pretty hard.. she goes off on a lot of tangents so I felt kind of lost. grades really harshly. No midterm but there are group discussions, quizzes, and one book review. Final was in class short essays. She takes attendance

Extremely biased, one-sided arguments presented in this class. Makes a class about the roles of women in society into a class about racial inequality, totally ridiculous and not what the course description says. Attendance is MANDATORY - grade drops 1/2 of a letter for EACH unexcused absence. Ridiculous 15 min in class assignments every so often.

two book several online articles, lots of reading, her study questions are alittle confusing. Good teacher but hard grader.

- LOTS OF READING - MIDTERM + FINAL + LONG PAPER - I LIKED HER, ISSUES ARE FROM PESENT TIME - INTERESTING - GOOD

Denise is a wonderful teacher. Her lectures are interesting and so are her readings. The 3 week summer session went incredibly fast, but she still managed to get everything in there, she also showed striking influential documentaries. Two thumbs up! :)

This class was a waste of time, the way the teacher taught her class did not promote critical thinking, but rather all we did was memorize and regurgitate facts. She claims expertise in education, yet she fails to give any insight beyond already common knowledge. The class is an easy A, but it's not worth it. She is NOT a good Chicana role model

Excellent Chicana role model. I love her lectures and is very articulate in her presentation of the course material. A great personality and a must for all those who seek a balanced view of social life. Unbiased teaching and well rounded.
