Comment:

I cannot believe the good reviews she's received. I am in awe that she was able to get a PhD. Taught the class in a fluffy, high school style. Made a major in COMS seem like a joke, and those that majored in COMS based on her 201 class thinking it would be an MTV-style free ride, probably got what they deserved and flunked out of university.

I really liked this class. Being a first-year course, I thought it was a great way to get into the swing of university. It was definitely an easy course. I enjoyed the multimedia segments at the end of class... it helped me look forward to the class

I'll admit her class was really easy, but I haven't retained anything. She liked to use video clips and stuff to "illustrate" her concepts - entertaining but lacking.

Comment:

Very upbeat and enthusiastic, but felt like the class needed more discussions rather than presentations of movie clips. Was actually bored by this class because it was so unstimulating. Barely showed up and got an A.

Big flake, did not deal well with students’ one on one in the introduction class, relied too much on technology, but did not know how to use it correctly. Bottom line, very over the top, left to personal taste, ok for intro course.
