Comment:
I've taken her before, thought she would be an easy class second time. After 3 years apart in classes, she hasn't changed. We were supposed to get to chapter 14, we only got through chapter 4 in a 15 week class. We barely used our text book which was version 7, she used version 6 text book notes. She is a "at your own risk" professor.

Extremely informed on current events. Tries her hardest to make sure students succeed. Able to relate to easily. Some times rambles a little but never lost interest in what she was saying.

Unorganized. All over the place. Learned more about her son who still lives at home with her than I did any of the material. Every lecture got off topic for the entire 50 minutes. Pure laziness in many aspects. Blames sick days on her hip replacement from 5 years ago? Its a mess and just don't do it. Tests were awful and the class average was a 5

Great woman but a not so great professor. She rambles when she lectures. Her test questions and answers, are paragraphs long. So if you misread one word you're in trouble. My suggestion is do the extra credit, try to read, and do no miss class.

Comment:
Gives exams on notes given in class very scatter brained. Knowledgeable but cannot pass it on in any way shape or form. If you get a good grade consider yourself lucky or a very good reader/ independent student that can learn by themselves. Test are designed to confuse, not test retention. Offers extra credit that's the only plus.

Comment:
She is a nice professor but I really struggle in this class. The lectures are just long and boring. The one thing that I really hate is the way she creates her tests, its multiple choice but each choice is like a paragraph long. I'm not really interested in politics either so that could be the case. She is a kind woman though. I suggest not taking.

Comment:
An eccentric, unorganized professor. Her courses are entirely lecture-based but much of the lecture is dedicated to her belaboring the point on things that do not matter, and when she does talk about things that are essential, she speeds through them. Seems somewhat resentful of some students but is so hard to take seriously that it doesn't matter.

Dr. Jeffery cares about her students and it shows. Her class is interesting and entertaining while challenging you to learn. She relates theory to real-world scenarios and helps students to understand the implications of various concepts.

Comment:
She is the worst professor I have had in my 4 years at Edinboro. I learned practically nothing in this class. Her lectures have no structure or substance. She literally rambles for 50 minutes. She was frequently late to class and would always go over the time. DO NOT TAKE HER UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED TO.

Comment:
Some students struggle with Dr. Jeffery rambling, but I thought she was funny. She's very knowledgeable and has a lot of life experience, which I thought was helpful to hear about while listening to her lectures. When she saw that we were struggling (her tests are difficult, but I studied a lot and did well), she offered extra credit for each exam.

Rambles all the time. Learnt more about her politics and college life than american government. Also likes to yell at people for talking...when no one is talking. I feel like she treats other students opinions or beliefs as lesser or completely stupid if it goes against hers.

Comment:
Well, I will first start off by saying she RAMBLES on and on and when I say rambles, I mean talks really fast and does not have a clear thought process. DO NOT TAKE her! The only reason I went to class was to get the attendance points. I couldnt focus on a word she said. I got the book (highly recommended) and just read the book. Hard tests too!

If you can avoid taking a class with her I highly recommend you do so. She rambles on and throws a ton of info at you without any sense to it. Don't take her class. Also, she asks for classroom participation than acts like everyone's opinion is moronic.

Do not take her! She rambles! When you receive a test it is on things we have not even learned. I regret taking the course.

DO NOT TAKE THE CLASS! She is very random and rants constantly about her life. Off topic constantly and you will have to ready your whole book for the test which are difficult! Also if you don't speak in class she deducts you points.

The class was all over the place. I did not learn too much but when she realized our class was struggling she really did her best to help us pass and get the best grade possible with extra credit. It was her 1st time teaching this class and it was obvious.
