Anne-Marie is very passionate and knows her stuff. Very clear in her lectures and easily approachable. She is not very consistent updating Bblearn with summary slides or marks however. But overall a fun and easy course to take, provided you study and have real interest in it.

Comment:

Nit picky, unclear, does not post readings, does not post complete slides, does not provide clear definitions for terms in class, assigns things in-class and never mentions them again or online, is unclear about what mini activities are to be handed in, takes off marks for silly reasons, speaks to students like children, overall terrible instructor

EXCELLENT Professor. If you're taking a geography class and she's an option, take her section, she's helpful and communicates well. She gets to know the individual student and makes the class interesting!

Amazing professor. One of the few that genuinely cares about her students. She is always willing to help, and wants to see you succeed. She gave us chocolate at our exams, which is always a good sign!

Best Prof I've had at dal, always went out of her way to help me, even with material that was not related to her class. On more than one ocasion I've gone out of my way to take courses that she has taught.

Comment:

What an unbelievable waste of everybody's time. This class was essentially like somebody dumping the contents of a filing cabinet on the ground and calling it a course, except the filing cabinet was full of useless superficial buzz words with no real content. Poor clarity and organisation. Ridiculous final exam. Not science. An utter failure.

The best professor in the History of Dalhousie Earth Sciences. There should be an award named after her. She will make you love geology. God Bless Anne-Marie. Yeah she's hot-tempered at times, but you can actually feel her love. Students should takes as many of her courses as possible. GO ANNE-MARIE!!

She's so amazing! I went into the class with no interest in geology, and left wanting to be a geologist! She tricked me into liking rocks, it turns out I'm only interested in geology when she's teaching it! So nice and caring. There will never be a prof as great as she is!
