Comment:
Didn't really learn that much because it wasn't what i was into, but she's a really sweet professor, very into what she does. As said before, her tests are really easy if you do the study guides, the big project isn't that hard either if you get a good group, just make sure it's a good group.

Comment:
Turner is a total academic (PhD from Carnegie Mellon) and really enjoys research, so be prepared to do some. 1 big group project, 3 tests, no homework. Tests are straight from the supplied study guide so if you study well, you can pull an A easy. Not a hard A, but not necessarily easy (especially if you don't ace the first two tests).

Easy class to get a good grade in. The exam questions are straight off the study guide and her project isn't very extensive. There are periodic due dates for the project, and the final product is only a presentation. I only showed up to class half the time, but I did the study guide prior to exams and did well on the project, so she gave me an A.

Comment:
Doesn't teach test material. You need a book to study for the exams. We put a lot of effort into our project but she gave us a low score anyways. And she tends to get frustrated when talking to the class. She seems like she can be a bit nutty.

Prof. Turner is awesome. About 50% of your grade is the group project, so get into a good group. Make your topic fun and informative and you're guaranteed to get a good grade. Don't do something boring. Don't forget to review her PPTs before a test! She tests A LOT off them. That's how I got an A :)

She is a very nice lady, subject is pretty boring. Some quizes, drops lowest, 1 midt, final. Lets u use a notecard for exams. 1 group project, pretty easy. It is not about the topic of project, but about working in groups, so don't worry too much, just pick an easy topic. The class is easy to pass, but A is not so easy.

Comment:
Teacher is fairly easy. Lecture is unimportant, tests are only on the book. There is one large project in the class which there is almost no guidance for. No previous examples are given making it hard to tell how much work to put in. Class is very easy to pass, hard to get an A.

Comment:
In your face grammatical errors her way is a constant, pull you down. The class is a huge 100+ students discussion about the class title. Midterm is a lot of material pool, don't do it, don't take this one. There are professionals, and there are professors, this one is an instructor. Screams at everyone, then pops that innocent harmless shy look.

There's a whole lot of reading that you have to do for this class, but other than that, it's not so bad. Turner is a fair teacher and gives a study guide with all possible questions for the midterm, so it's not so bad. Group project is important, so make sure to get a good group together and you'll pass no problem.

Nice and caring prof. Yells to get class attention which is inappropriate for students close to front, hurts ears. Horrible group member search format. Never had problems with groups before this class. Method is flawed (pick skills over personality). HW easy, tough on grammar, spelling. Group project throughout semester w/ presentation. Exams fair

Marlene is a great instructor. Lectures are clear and concise, and reading workload can be heavy. She is very fair though, and willing to help you understand and succeed. Excellent experience, would recommend her course to anyone!

Good teacher, but lots of homework. She doesn't care if you are full time student or have a busy schedule. Classes are loaded with stuff to do, not easy passing... Tests are multiple choice and confusing, lots of material to study..
