Comment:
Anatomy is one of the hardest classes I've ever taken. Dodenhoff gives so much information and its so hard to keep track of it all. Be organized, go to all lectures and labs, do the hw, and put in the effort and youll pass. I got A even though I did poorly on a test. She will prepare you if you're willing to work for it.

It was her first year doing a CSUB class and her instructions were all over the place. Her assignments were unclear and she would switch up often. She was okay because it's a really basic class, but now that this class is an actual grade instead of pass or fail I wouldn't want her.

Comment:
Dr. D exudes an amazing personality however her teaching methods are a little unorthodox. Very cluttered and rarely teaches any material rather has you take quizzes (non-graded) in both lecture and lab. Be prepared to spend hours understanding anatomy on your own time. At best, you can makeup most of your points from practicals. There is extra cred

Comment:
Currently taking her introduction to Biology and she goes off on tangents during her lectures. Shes very sarcastic and often makes you feel dumb when you ask her a question. Although, I already know a lot of what shes teaching, I believe I can learn more through her lectures but unfortunately, she does not teach it well.

Dr. Dodenhoff is a great professor but I feel her organization as far as Blackboard and the class as a whole feels scattered. There is SO MUCH information that is jammed into one semester that its hard to keep track of all of it. Her Blackboard is a mess with things she hasn't even looked at in years. She's great, but just needs to trim it down.

Amazing professor, she teaches very visual which i loved. The class is a lot of memorizing, you have to put in a lot of out of class time to pass. She gives what is necessary and you have to put in the work. There is alot of homework but it did help me throughout the course. All work was relevent. Tests are tough. She does give extra credit

Dr. Dodenhoff is a wonderful professor who aims to make the learning environment as fair as she can. She provides students with all the tools necessary to pass the class: recorded lectures, ppt notes, and homework assignments. Anatomy is a hard class, but she made it enjoyable with her stories!

She goes on tangents. You are better off teaching yourself because she talks to her students as if they are Bio majors, and I hate science so I don't understand her lectures.

Dr. Dodenhoff is a great professor, she is willing to help her students out if you go to her office hours. She records all her lectures which helps a lot when studying for lecture exams. STUDY, STUDY, STUDY and you will do fine!

Dr. D is one of the best professors here. She records all her lectures so you're able to listen to them later. This class is intense, but she gives about a lot of material to help- its up to you to learn. She's funny, and she's there to give additional help.

I received an A. Exams were challenging and required a good amount of studying. Some questions could be tricky but with some applied logic and determination, the answer can be teased out of the multiple choice. Lots of extra points to boost grades. She really supports the students with videos/recordings/exercises that help. She also provides hints.

Anatomy is difficult no matter who you are. Dr. D is a great professor, but you need to go to class AND re-listen to the lectures later simply because there is SOOO much information to learn. It's not rocket science, just a lot of information to retain. She is great in lab as well. Record her in lab. Use the study material on Blackboard.

Dodenhoff is an amazing professor dedicated to helping you pass the class! posts many videos of dissections/lectures that are extremely helpful if you re-watch them! If you don't go into the lab on your own time to study you will definitely not pass the class. lots and lots of memorization. Highly recommend Dodenhoff!

Dodenhoff is a great teacher. She is clear, will repeat herself if asked, tells you what is expected of the class and goes over details of upcoming tests. Anatomy is a self-taught class and she knows that but is willing to help with ways to really know and understand the material. You have to work hard in this class and study everyday. Get ready!

Comment:
During dissection, she'll help if you ask for help but it's your responsibility to dissect the cats yourself so you can learn more and be more prepared for the lab exams. She has a monotone voice. 3 tests and a final but offers A LOT of extra credit to work on and is offered on most of the exams.

It amazes me people get C's or worse in this class. The content is broken into 3 Exams + Final. Lab practical you have most control of: go in on the weekend, take pictures of everything, memorize with quizlet or flashcards and SPELL TEST yourself + video dissection walk-thrus. Lecture: Get Quizstar and rewatch the video, all answers are there.

She's fair. She literally only tests on what she says in lecture, so you can save money on a textbook. Plus there's TONS of extra credit. My only complaint is that she goes on tangent rants during lecture about public health when it's not really necessary for our understanding, so she was often behind on her slides and had to rush at the end.

Lecture is clear and all powerpoints can be found on blackboard. Buy quizstar! It helps alot. Some say she is moody in lab but i dont think so. She always helped and offers ALOT of extra credit as well as helpful links to help you study found on BB. If you pay attention, explore links on BB and study you will do fine in the class!
