Comment:

Sandie demands work every week. You cannot slack. She is strict with deadlines. Her tests are hard. It is easier to get a B than an A. But she will work with you if you need help and she answers questions really fast.

Comment:

Sandie's class was tough. But she always makes it easy in the end. And this one demanded a worksheet a week (where you had it while you were reading), three tests, and a project. She was willing to drop a test when most people bombed the first one. And the project was a two minute video summary. She answered every question I asked in an hour.

Hard grader. Excessive assignments for an online class and it requires a lot of detail from multiple novels and videos at a time. So much reading and writing papers for exams.

Comment:

This class made me msierable this semester. I feel like I didn't learn anything and I'm in my major classes and found myself alotting so much more time to this which is annoying. She is strict about late work and doesn't drop any low grades. I would work for a week on a really good paper and get it back and recieve a legitamate failing grade. NO!!!

I took REL 1010 online and it was one of the hardest classes I had and I was only taking this class for a literally study credit. This class sucked to only be a Gen Ed... Extremely hard grader, hard test, and sometimes the weekly work can be super difficult.

Comment:

Dr. Gravett is NOT a good professor. She expects entirely too much for a GenEd course. At the end of the semester we had two quizzes, a test, and a project due within a week of each other (and no we could not do it ahead of time). These assignments were worth 400 points. She grades VERY harshly. I would not recommend her to anyone.

I have taken REL 1010 and REL 1100. REL 1100 is not nearly as hard as her other online class, REL 1010. She is a great lady but the material in REL 1010 is extremely hard to understand!!!!

Comment:

REL1010 with Sandie Gravett has been the hardest class I have ever taken. The material she teaches is SO difficult to understand because she doesn't explain how things are related to religion. Her tests are all essay tests and are extremely difficult. She is also a hard grader, and it is very difficult to get a 100 on any assignment in her class.

Comment:

She is very reachable through email and response fairly fast. But judging as a Gen Ed, the work she wants you to do was . Lots of writings and quizzes (very tricky) due each week and the grading was quite harsh considering it's only 1000 level.

Proffesor Gravett is great. She is ALWAYS available through email and answers within minutes. She is also always willing to help. The class is consistent, a discussion post due on Wednesday, a response post due on Saturday and then a quiz due Saturday and thats it. There are two bigger projects. The class is super organized and easy to keep with.

Summer is fast, but she had the course organized by week and it was easy to follow. She grades tough, but I had heard that she gives you some breaks at the end and she does. I liked the movies and the discussion.

Comment:

Took it as an online course. She is a very tough grader, the avg grade you will get is around a B if you work hard. Considered it'a GenEd, I have spent way too much time on this course as compared to others. So I ended up dropping it. There are more valuable things to do in the summer than working so hard and get a B. I would not recommend her.

Comment:

This is a GenEd class and in my opinion, there is WAY too much pressure. There's a lot of reading and the quizzes are nearly impossible. The discussion boards, are also graded so harshly, and it doesn't matter how much work you put in, it's likely that you'll still get a B- or below. She's a nice person, but she should really lighten up on grading.

Comment:

Sandie was an average professor. I felt there was way too much work for this gen Ed online class. No matter how much work I put in the highest grade I recieved was an 83. Tests are extremely hard with the matching section almost impossible. Always rep sounds to questions/ e-mails within 30 minutes. Make you work for your grade.

Comment:

Class online is clearly laid out with consistent deadlines. She has high expectations, but answers any question within minutes and keeps up with grading so you always know where you stand. She read every draft of any assignment I sent and gave good feedback. And she worked with me when I had a family emergency.

The online class was fairly organized but very hard. I worked very hard on every assignment and got at or below average grades. She's very interested in the material so it makes it kind of interesting.

Comment:

I took this class online and there are a ton of reading assignments on top of a mandatory discussion each week, which wasn't bad but she is a very strict grader. No matter how much work I put in, she gave me and 82 or below on every discussion. VERY TOUGH GRADER.

Comment:

Sandie's class is very organized and is very easy to progress through. She grades pretty tough and criteria is not very specific. Exams are RIDICULOUSLY tough, made from scratch, and come from the book. Lessons are an hour a week & about 1-3 chapters of reading a week. Drops grades to help in the end. Makes you work for the value of your education.

Comment:

You have to follow directions. If you do, you get good grades. Tests are brutal, but once you figure what she wants, it gets easier. Always emails back within an hour. Third class with her. l learned a ton and schedule never changes so you know when to get things done. Always gives breaks at the end you do not expect.
