Comment:

Ok prof but it is very hard to keep up with her notes as she goes through them really fast and they aren't anywhere online. Also, she refuses to answer questions on weekends even before a huge project ? She can also be saucy at times.

notes were all over the place and not available for download thus you have to go to class to write them and the book and atlas were without any related material to study from for the exam not that the teacher was helping

Comment:

Great woman, very friendly and clear speaking to the class. Her notes are vague and not online, but has them on a powerpoint and gives you plenty of time to copy them. Labs were VERY easy but took all three hours given to complete. Lectures can be dull, but classes are manditory.

I LOVE this prof! Karyn is great. Her biogeography course is by far one of the best courses offered at MUN. The labs are amazing.. I cant even stress how much fun they are. The course was very well organized and if you put in the time and effort you will be rewarded. Very smart woman and makes going to class for enjoyable. Highly recommend her!

One of the better profs in the department. She is extremely helpful and has sparked my interest in Biogeo. Her door is always open and is willing to help you until you fully understand. I would recommend this course taught by Karyn. Hey Karyn.. don't worry about the 1st years - you are great! Keep up the great teaching!!!!!

Comment:

Such a caring and kind prof. Takes the time to get to know students, and then takes the time to help us anytime we need. Lectures SEEM disorganized, probably because we don't have a text, but still easy to follow. This is my third course with Karyn, I didnt like her when I did 1050, but now I would pick her courses any day of the week.

Pretty good teacher, keeps things as interesting as can be for the topic at hand. Fairly helpful. Gives good examples and stuff. Notes were mainly powerpoints so not much note taking needed. Labs were a cake walk.
