Comment:
Unfortunately, everyone needs to take her class, and it's terrible that she's our first look at the ed program here. Her methods are outdated and she doesn't know the latest stuff. Slow on grading, not good with technology, hardly in her office. I barely learned anything. Wish she'd retire so we can learn something about education. Easy class.

Always unprepared. Lacks knowledge in her own field and preaches one thing while doing another. Bumbling fool!

Comment:
She's a perfectly nice lady but doesn't have much teaching experience. Her advice seems to be all theory-based without much real world knowledge to back it up. Good at getting the basics across. Very boring though, and terrible with anything technological. Expect delays whenever she tries to use PowerPoint or show a video.

Comment:
extremely knowledgeable supportive of her students, expects them to act like responsible adults. The "children" at UC expect to be coddled and can be quite rude. Not all classes need to be "fun" you will walk away knowing your stuff. I have been teaching for 6 years now, and know that I still apply what she taught me. She is wonderful!

Comment:
It's odd that the worst teachers on campus are education teachers. She has no idea how to teach, and the fact she is one of the heads of the division is rediculous. She is a cold hearted professor who is even worse at advising.

Comment:
This woman is ridiculous. First she was my advisor and signed me up for a program I wasn't qualified for, then I had her for class and she is so unprepared and unhelpful. When you ask for clarification, she can't give it to you. If you ask her something, she will give you a different answer every time. I will never take another class with her.

Comment:
Never prepared, she just cons other people into giving talks to her students on topics she obviously knows nothing about except from reading. Ironic for someone preparing teachers that she has none of the skills she thinks she is developing. "Utterly incompetent" would really be an understatement in describing this pathetic excuse for a professor.

Comment:
I think that some of the comments about Prof. Dorow are a little unfair. I had her for Children's Literature, and I think that she is a very nice lady who makes classes interesting. At times she talks slowly, but that doesn't mean that she is unprepared or "incompetent." She has had a lot of experience in the teaching profession, and I respect her.

Whoever rated this woman for "EDU 000" was obviously Dr. Dorow herself--or someone who confused her with a real professor! She is NEVER ready and NOT AT ALL HELPFUL.

A bumbler; never quite ready, not sure what she is doing--and always covering her a** because she just doesn't bother getting anything ready for her classes. Then she does the SAME thing over again--and again!

Utterly incompetent and NEVER prepared. Cons other people into doing all her classes for her. Provides misinformation and then claims she didn't. Never gives a clear answer and clearly despises minority students.

I've had better, I've had worse, but the only ones worse I've had are some of her co-conspirators in the autocracy of the UC edu department.
