Comment:

Her instructions for assignments are generally confusing and ambiguous. She expects you to do everything exactly how she wants, but she doesnt tell you what she wants. She was also very unreasonable and difficult to work with on things. Definitely avoid her if possible.

Comment:

Assingnments were straight forward and if you had questions, emailing her was the best way to get a quick response. Make sure to write or call her Dr. in all emails and assignments, part of your grade is on your professionalism when communicating with her through emails. You can be makred off for small things so pay attention to details in papers

Comment:

I've always had horrible experiences with online classes and then when I took this class I got scared because it was an accelerated online class. However, this class was a lot of fun, I got to pick what I wanted to read, and Dr. H was so helpful. There was a lot of work in a little amount of time, but it never felt like everything was due at once.

Comment:

This is a really easy class. If you're a night-before-it's-due worker like I am, you will go weeks with literally nothing to do. Follow the provided example for a paper and it's plug and play. "Handbook of Technical Writing" required.

Overall a fun class. For a level 300 i felt that the class was spot on with difficulty. She likes for you to think VERY analytical. Buy the books, read them, do what you are supposed to do and you can pull an A.

She is an amazing teacher! I learned a lot in my Tech Writing Class. As long as you do the work, show up, and follow her instructions, you will get a good grade.

If she asks you what you think on a test question or paper, just tell her what she tells you to think in class, otherwise great teacher.

Brit Lit II was awesome. She is a very fair professor and expects a lot but the expectations are not unreachable. Will always find time to help with class work and is understanding of outside emergencies. Must attend class to get a good grade.

Comment:

Though I didn't feel like I learned anything new when it came to filmmaking, I loved her lectures. Don't censor yourself on essay tests. A friend of mine in the class would take an exam hungover, but would still get high grades because she put whatever she felt like down.

Comment:

The class is a lot of work, but she grades very easy. I should say work, it's just time consuming. She's an easy A if you put effort into it and do her extra credit (Which is a lot). She's a great teacher for this class.

Comment:

Uncertain how she determines grades...syllabus is long-winded and unclear. Needs to better define methods for grading students. Seems like she takes a personal slant in who gets the A's
