Comment:

Professor Nickoli is a wonderful professor! The course was interesting, and she created discussion boards/assignments that tied in very well with the course content. There is a semester-long project, but it is very manageable and easy to complete. She cares about the success of her students and is very nice. Definitely recommend her to anyone!

SHE IS AMAZING. I am so sad she is not teaching anymore, but glad I got to have her during her last semester of teaching. I wish I could take her again. She is hilarious and really caught my attention especially for it being an 8am. All homework assignments revolve around watching a video, but all the videos are amazing documentaries!

Comment:

Shes one of the greatest professors at ball state in my mind. She truly loves her job and will do whatever it takes for her students to succeed. When she talks your attention is always on her because she is so passionate in what she teaches. It is obvious she spends a lot of time out of class prepare supplemental information for her students.

Best professor I ever had. Even switched to her as my academic advisor after my first class with her. She can be very blunt, but she only wants the absolute best for her students. Participate in class, share opinions, and work hard. you'll have her respect forever if you do so. Some say she is gruff but she has a big heart if you need it.

Good class. The workload is kind of heavy, but it doesn't take forever. The assignments are graded somewhat tough but the feedback given makes it easy to improve. Overall, good professor.

Nickoli is hilarious. Yes, she makes you work for your grade, but she makes the subject interesting for everyone. I always loved going to her lectures. The book is essential to passing, so you have to read the chapters. She acts super intimidating when you talk to her, but if you try hard in her class and SHOW UP each day, she will respect you.

Comment:

She can be extremely blunt and rude when answering questions. She describes herself as a b*tch which is funny until you realize shes serious. I have had her for a few classes and she's a great professor, just don't get offended easily. The tests are cake if you study. I got a 103% in the class because she gave so much extra credit.

She is an amazing professor! One of my absolute favorites. As long as you attend class and read what she tells you to read in the book, you'll do fine. Keep up and don't get behind! She may originally seem standoffish, but she is always willing to help if you just ask!

Comment:

Nickoli is hilarious and the class is really fun to go to because she makes it interesting. You definitely need to read the book during the chapters you're going over. Also check blackboard and her syllabus because she has everything on there. Her tests are easy as long as you study, attendance is for credit but she takes it with iclickers.

Comment:

She does lectures, but you always watch a lot of videos too. She's HILARIOUS, but is not a go-to kind of professor. Kind of rude and blunt when you have individual meetings with her. But she knows her stuff. The tests can be hard, so MAKE SURE YOU READ THE TEXT. And attend study sessions. Make sure to get the materials she requires. you WILL need.

She is hilarious and makes the class enjoyable. Learned a lot from this class but the exams cover a lot of material. Study for the exams and use your textbook. One of the funniest professors I've had here. She made the class awesome

Funny in lectures, terrifying in person. Mostly tests fairly easy remember & recycle business. She sets simulations, like flash games. Do not hit save on these until you have a perfect score. Just pray you don't have to go to her office for anything.

Tests are HARD. Go to class, read the material. You should be fine. She's abrasive. Participate in class and she'll like you. Even if you have a different opinion. She respects that you voice it and participate.
