Comment:
Her class is participation (mandatory attendance) 5%, homework 20%, Test 1 25%, Test 2 25%, Final 25%. The class is essentially all geometry proofs, and she only accepts them done a certain way so you need to show up just to see the specific way she wants it done. Most of class time is just spent socializing though.

Ms. Nickerson requires discussion to stimulate learning, and it works! If you want to be spoon fed, go back to pre-school. College coursework is just that... work. Slackers don't deserve to take her courses. She does a great job.

Comment:
Nice teacher but horible teaching style or maybe I should say "doesn't teach at all". Get in groups to discuss most of the time. I recommend take someone else for this class or other classes that she is teaching.

Comment:
Doesn't teach, unorganized, never return homeworks or tests on time (usually get hw back in 2-3 wks later). THe class is pointless. She hands out worksheets inclass and get in groups to solve it. THis class is more of a research type. Learning how kids solve math problems

This class is hard but Nickerson walks you though it. Go to her office hours if you are having trouble. Make sure to go to class. You discuss all homework in class.

This class is hard but she is pretty easy. go to her office hours before the tests and she will tell you what is on the tests. Just go and see her and she will give you an A. Homework is hard but won't affect your grade too much.

Comment:
Goes over problems for lengthy periods of time and presents multiple ways of solving them. However, she lets students solve their problem on the board and asks the other students if it's correct. She doesn't tell you right away if it's wrong or not.
