Comment:

Very organized with her teaching. Quite a bit of activities are required outside of the classroom, but it's not hard to do (just time consuming). Class can be boring, but she tries to make it entertaining. Material is easy to learn, tests aren't hard as long as you've paid attention in class.

Love this lady. Not much to say except class is great and she really cares about you learning the material. Most chill old lady ever. Do the homework! Got 3 tests, final, few out of class requirements, & 2 tiny projects. Really easy class if you understand the material and can apply it. I learned SO much. Would take her again and again.

Comment:

I think the people who teach future elementary school teachers should have taught at some point in order to better relate. She hasn't. If she had I think this class would have actually been helpful. Her as a professor though? Good. Not good at math and I got an A. Woo.

Hilarious and fun Calc professor. Deborah Crocker will help you with math and any problems you are having outside of class; she's as kind as a grandmother. The class is hard if you aren't very good at math but she will do her best to make sure you do well. She teaches everything you need to know plus she gives candy during tests!

Comment:

Dr. Crocker is an excellent instructor! She explains the material very well and is more than willing to work with you after class. The grades in this course consist mostly of exams (we had 3) and projects/activities. Do the work and put the effort into the class and you'll do fine! Sure, she can be a bit eccentric, but that's what makes it fun!

Comment:

The first test was hard. Sometimes in class she would not explain herself well. On one question she went around the way to do it for an hour. Then she said or you could do it this way and showed us how to do it in 15 seconds. She is nice if you get to know her. I didn't always understand the way she taught but she ended up being a favorite.

Dr. Crock was tough, but I learned a lot from her, and if I had to take another math class, I would take her again. She was a big help to me last semester, often going the extra mile. I like her, and I think she's a d@mned good teacher.

Comment:

If your not good at math I wouldn't reccomend this teacher. She is a tough grader and gives her students no slack at all. She also has a really dry sense of humor. I also consider her pretty mean and dosn't really give a crap if all her students fail or not.

Comment:

I am no good at math in the first place, so having Dr. Crocker as a professor made math a little harder for me. She was moody and was a hard grader, but I did learn just a little more than I knew before I came to her class. I wouldn't reccomend her if you can't take lots of sarcasm or a dry-humored personality

Comment:

This woman is too freakin moody! She'll be nice and joking one minute and then flipping out at us the next. No one knows how to act around her because she could go off at any moment. The class is easy and so its not a big deal to take. I really just wanted to rant and this is a good place to do it

Comment:

This class was pretty easy. You have to do write ups in lab & a portfolio, but that is because the class has a writing designator (you'd do it in any MAT 1010). She was very helpful and would answer any questions you have. Tests are straight forward from problems done in class.
