Comment:
A very nice professor! Although attendance isn't mandatory, she will most definitely notice that you don't show up to class, and she values participation. You NEED to have the textbook, as you will write rxn papers every week to the readings. I recommend sitting at the front, she sometimes talks lower.

Has done a lot of work in the subject and knows what she's talking about. The class shed light on important topics our culture seems to sweep under the rug. She did a good job at promoting classroom discussion.

At first she said no serious with grammar, she looking for an ideas. After that she sent me to revised grammar at writing center. Then she thought I was copied and paste from someone else paper. I told her to go search in internet. At last she thought I was hiring someone else to do my paper. olo Finally I got only B.

Genuine person and can be a talker, especially about the environment. Cannot seem to stay awake in her class no matter what I do. If you can listen to her speak for an 1:30, and use logic on her weekly quizzes, take her.

Comment:
Nancy Jackson was by the best professor I've taken at NJIT. She's incredibly competent and intelligent to boot. There was no textbook for the class, no midterm, no final. It was not incredibly difficult. There was a good amount of reading, but the assignments really aren't vbery hard. She's a good choice for anyone who actually wants to learn.

Not a hard teacher at all, she does most of the talking in class so there can be little participation. Essays aren't too hard, and quizzes and tests are pretty cool as well.

Lectures are boring. Download and read her slides that she posts on webCT and you'll do fine on the weekly quizzes. Bring a pillow to class.

The topic isn't exactly entrancing, but she does a good job and I definitely came out of the class knowing more than when I went into it. It's not so bad overall, she's fairly easy to work with.

Class is very boring. Especially do not take her for the night class, a guaranteed sleep session. She thinks she knows everything because she's wrote some published research.

Although this class was somewhat interesting, the amount of reading you need to do was too much. It really takes some time to get used to. The weekly quizzes are can be ridiculous. Everyone has to take it, so be glad it's only once.

It is kind of hard to know what she is looking for, but she is nice and knows that if everyone gets something wrong than it shouldn't count so much against the class. Very lecture oriented. Class itself is interesting if you are into it.
