Comment:
Dawn does a great job explaining things... almost too great. Class is really boring, especially if you read the textbook beforehand. The class is difficult, especially the recitations required and tests. Dawn is into experimental learning where you are asked about, and graded on, the material before you learn it in lecture.

Very clear, uses visuals. You need to attend class and keep up with readings to do well, but passing is possible!

Thinks her new way of teaching chemistry is more effective and insists on using it but it sucks no one except maybe 5 kids in front row can follow her lecture

Comment:
Not helpful, not understanding and can't think outside the box. She seems like a bitter woman who has never had life outside academia and can't think outside the box. She should stick to research and not be allowed to supervise undergrads.

Comment:
Terrible professor. She doesn't make sense when she is lecturing and she treats you like you are in kindergarten. Watching a cartoon sing the periodic table was not my idea of learning college chemistry. Her tests are really hard because she does a terrible job at teaching the information.

Rickey is a good professor. Her lectures are clear and to the point. She does example problems and doesn't move too fast. CHEM 111 is a challenging course but it isn't impossible. Prof. Rickey teaches it well and her student's scores are typically higher than the other CHEM 111 class.

Comment:
Her "new and improved" method of teaching is the most innane, contrived and convoluted thing I have ever seen practiced in an academic setting. Perhaps if she could hold someone's attention longer than 1 s, she might have something useful to say about chemistry. She is proof that a Harvard education is not always credible.

She makes everything more complicated than it needs to be, but she's willing to take the time to help you understand it. Overall, she's pretty good.

She didn't seem to like her job, at all. The tests were hard and the averages on them were in the 50's most of the time.

She will just read you the book in short form and you will feel like you're in kindergarten again. Believe me, this is not a good thing.
