Comment:
Overall, a great professor. Make sure you keep up with assignments and don't forget about them. 322 has assignments that are not due every week so double check your timelines. Does not give much feedback. There is a major paper due for 209 and 322, do not wait until the last minute. I would recommend taking her.

Comment:
This class was ridiculous - 2 450 word discussion posts a week and a 450 word reply, a case study to read each week, a chapter or two to read each week, and a quiz every week. She provides absolutely 0 feedback and will knock off a point here and there with no information on why. It's almost impossible to get a 100% on anything - with no reasoning.

Comment:
Dr. Walters doesn't do much in this class. Instead she assigns weekly discussion board posts and quizzes that do not stimulate learning. She then expects a group of 12+ online students to collaborate for two group projects, where if one aspect is late, you lose a letter grade - even if you need someone's paper to post who was lame themselves.

Comment:
It's an easy class, if you like communication and are self driven. However, being online, it's not interesting unless you want to learn it. Walters gives 0 feedback on any assignments. Half the course is graded by an online platform, the other half she grades but doesn't give feedback on why you did or didn't do well.

The class is really monotonous. She never provides any feedback on your work, so you don't have anything to go off. I would suggest taking this class sit down.

Great instructor. She starts the class out with interesting facts you'd never think of. Tests are easy, just study the handouts. In class arguments are boring at the beginning but get more interesting at the end. I would recommend her to anyone I meet.

Heather is very nice and very understanding. She'll answer any questions you have, and is very prompt to reply to her emails. She's also very knowledgeable about what she teaches. The assignments are easy but you still learn a lot from them, and the tests come straight from the notes. She's very funny, and a great professor. Definitely take her!

She was definitely a fun teacher. She made comments that left you shaking your head, yet smiling! Listen and take notes and her tests are SUPER easy. You do a lot of debates but preparation is easy and overall the class can be an easy A if you put in the right amount of effort. There is always something fun added to her lectures.

These people are crazy! Heather is hilarious. She says the most random funny things. She is a good professor and will always helf you if you need it. Sometimes vague, but she will clear up your questions. She has extremely easy test and speech topics are really open and flexible.

You can see where she is a great debater, I think she is one of the coach's. She knows her stuff but if God took her to Disney Land on a magic carpet she could still bore you to death trying to talk abou it.

I think she has to be the least interesting teacher I've ever had. She is boring and shows no interest in the topics she is teaching. She is monotone and teaches unneccesary things when other topics would be more useful to up and coming speech/theatre teachers

She might seem vague at times, but that's because she really doesn't mind unique projects. Lots of debates/arguments, but that's what the class is for; and they're always easy. You have choices on the topics to discuss too.
