Comment:

At first glance, her syllabus in Canvas looks daunting. Once you figure out how to manage your time appropriately, this class is extremely easy. It's literally the same type of assignments every week. After the 3rd week, you get used to the pace of this class. The people who are saying it's hard are lazy. Took 1 hour for 10 assignments per week.

Very easy class. All you need to do is do the work and you will get an A. A good amount of quizzes but you have unlimited time and 3 tries. 800 points for assignments and quizzes, 100 points for final, and 100 points for the project.

Grades are calculated by a point system of 1,000. 800 of those points are through assignments, surveys, quizzes, exams. 100 points for the Fossil Project & 100 points for the semi cumulative final. She offers 100 additional extra credit points. All of the weeks are unlocked and you can breeze through if you want to stay ahead. Only solid grades.

Professor Berry was tough but fair. Always clear directions and great feedback. She always responds to questions in a timely manner, and she knows so much about the subject of anthropology. It was a pleasure to take her class and I learned so much from the experience. Would definitely recommend her to Everyone. A definite must while at De Anza!

Interface itself is daunting, but she is extremely organized for this online class. She has online office hours which you can chat with her on Catalyst, which is helpful for busy students who can't make it to campus. All weeks unlocked so you can truly study at your own pace. Awesome online course for your GE's, didn't buy the book

The class is super easy. Textbook is only optional. You can study ahead to finish the rest of assignment and quizzes only if you're taking online class. She give out a lot of extra credits, she is very generous. Exam and final exam are super easy, if you failed, you can it again for 3 try attempt. Same thing as quizzes. Overall the class is easy.

Incredibly easy online class, as long as you stay organized and put in the time. Having the book is essential because the quizzes and exams are all based off of the book (the questions are very specific!). She's very thorough and clear with her expectations, and always provides great feedback. Overall, a very interesting and easy class!

I didn't buy the textbook, and most the answer you can find online or through her lecture. If you did all the require work, you will guarantee to get an A.

So I took her hybrid class. This class was, by far, the most simple class I have taken in my life. 3 attempts for all quizzes AND THE FINAL and she reveals the answers in the end of the quizzes/final so you can attempt again! Easy A+ w/o trying. She's super nice and answers her emails quickly too. She'll be teaching online only now. Take her!

I took her online class for ICS 5. It was super easy. Weekly lessons, which are powerpoints online and weekly quizzes that you have 3 tries for, each. She also has random forums that you have to post on. The final exam is pretty easy as well. Do all of this with the extra credit, and you're golden. She is also a very lenient grader.

Easy class. Just really boring since I have no interest in Art. You do assignments in class have online forums to do but they're all really easy. Easy A, and lots of extra credit

I loooved this class! 4 hours flew by without me even noticing, light HW/reading, awesome assignments like simple take-home tests, visiting a cool little museum and making a project on your family history. Basically got an A for listening to her always interesting lectures, watching that crazy NatGeo Taboo show in class, and never leaving early.

She is hands down an awesome professor. She had to cover a lot of material and knew it was a lot for students to take in so she did a fine job breaking down key points in class and assisting students in focusing on some things over others. Clear and as helpful as can be. Had a varying assignments (essay, cross-word, etc) to keep it interesting.

Comment:

She was very easy, as long as you attend the class and do the homework, you will be fine. The midterm and final were a little bit hard because both of them had 100 questions. But most of them came directly from the book. Do all extra credits, they would help you a lot.
