Comment:

Shelley's voice is very engaging in class. Her midterm is 40% and finals 60%. Finals are a bit tough therefore get ready. Technological devices are not allowed in her classes, neither does she post slides so you have to go to class in order to get notes

Comment:

She seems to be unapproachable, however she is very kind and her lectures are interesting. She is funny and makes jokes which makes her lectures not feel so long. Midterms and quizzes are pretty easy, and you just need to show up to take good notes and you should be fine.

Comment:

I loved this course. Prof Rabinovitch gives interesting, if a little rambling, lectures and explains the material really well. The reading covers anything left out in class, so do that. Exams were super easy. Remember to bring a notebook, because she doesn't allow electronics!

Comment:

I'm surprised people thought this class was difficult, I am by no means a straight A student but this class was so easy. There is only one midterm (40 M/C 40% of final grade) and the exam (60 M/C 60% of final) but as long as you attend you'll do fine (I never even opened the textbooks)

Comment:

A very interesting person with lots of stories to tell. Teaches class content like she is telling a story, which made it very easy to remember. Absolutely no electronics are allowed, but there were never more than 15 important terms to remember from each course. Readings were not on the midterm much, but made up a good part of the final exam.

Comment:

EASYY CLASS! She is a no no for electronics. Take notes by hand. i liked the course material so i could sit for 3 hours without loosing conscious, but it could be boring for a lot of students. Tests and midterms are multiple choice, super easy do the reading and listen to her you'll get a good mark.

Considering over 400 kids were paying 800 each for this course I would of hoped she could attend class in anything else but levi's jeans and collection of cereal box t shirts. She was often rude and grumpy. This course was interesting just did not like the prof personally.

Comment:

She's an engaging lecturer which almost makes up for the fact on how strict she is about phones and how she doesn't use a power point. Key word being almost. You need to pay attention and take good notes.

Comment:

I've never seen a prof more simple than Shelley, she's very clear and precise about what she wants. You can tell she's been in the field for a while since she knows what she's talking about. Her biggest pet peeve seems to be electronics and trust me if she somehow sees your using any sort of electronic in her class she will point you out !!!

She's an amazing crazy prof that loves what she's teaching and does not take anyone's bs. No electronics so you have to write by hand, but its not bad at all. I learnt tons about different things and did in a way that was pretty fun. She only has a midterm and final and they're both multiple choice. If you go to class, do your readings, youre good

This class was really easy if you listen to her lectures &take decent notes on lectures and on readings. The readings ARE on the tests so you should do them but you can easily skim through. She's pretty clear on what you should WRITE down (no electronics at all). Know the content pretty well & you'll be fine. Her 100 (total) questions aren't hard.

She is very entertaining and the class will not be a bore! The questions on the MC/TF midterms and finals were a little abiguise making them difficult. Over the entire year there is only 100 questions between the midterm and final so you really have to know your stuff. People say it is an easy A but be sure you know your stuff.

Comment:

Shelley is probably one of my favourite professors. She doesn't allow technology AT ALL which is a great strategy to get a great mark. The midterm and test is all MC/TF and there are no assignments. She makes hilarious comments and jokes so be prepared to laugh. & her lectures are so interesting! Show up to class if you want to be entertained

Easy A. Go to every class, participate when she asks questions, read the books, easy A+. Take it in the fall session so you get to wear a costume if its halloween for a bonus exam mark. There are 2 videos. Burning times, and Nazi occult conspiracy. both on youtube. take notes by hand, no electronics allowed. Great to raise GPA.

This teacher is so hilarious, make 7pm to 10pm classes interesting and actually makes you want to go to class. If you don't want to go well you probably won't do as well on the exams because there are NO notes on blackboard. Yeah theres lots to read but its pretty interesting stuff. Opens up your way of seeing and thinking.

Comment:

She is funny and her class isn't boring, but unfortunately it isn't well organized. She was almost always late (even to the midterm) and mostly had us watch youtube videos. I basically had to teach myself the course bc her lectures were so off-topic. It's too bad because she seems like a nice person.
