Took a tally one class. She said the phrase are you wit me? 41 times within a 50-minute period. Truly excruciatingly terrible class.

Most pointless class I've ever taken, even though it's one of my major courses. Nothing we did pertained to instructional technology. I hated waking up for this class every Tuesday and Thursday. Like someone else said, take online if possible!!

Are you with me? Get ready to hear that a thousand times. Dr. Anand is a sweet lady but very scattered. She can be difficult to understand sometimes. Have to ask her for clarification multiple times for things to make sense. Her handouts and study guides are really all you need to get a good grade though. Lectures are a snooze, but mandatory.

TAKE THIS ONLINE IF YOU CAN. I didn't at all enjoy her class. She is unclear, hard to listen to, and doesn't seem to understand how to teach. Her assignments, tests, and reading materials are seemingly unrelated to anything that one would incorporate tech wise into a classroom. Her tests are random material (make sure you know who did what).

If you have to take a class with Dr. Anand, I would change professors immediately. She is very hard to get a hold of (I had to email her at least twice to get a response) and she is ridiculously unclear in what she wants regarding assignments & projects. Most students in my class had no clue what was going on for the better part of the semester.

This class is a requirement. So get over it, you are stuck. She is a very nice lady but she can be so dry. Memorization is key here, not into teaching concepts. Study the handouts, all test materials come from here. Does make you do a few group projects on subject matter that she then includes on the test. Get the assessment info from your peers.

If you can't get an A in this class, you shouldn't be in college. The exams are the straight off the handouts, so simple and straight forward. Yeah it's boring but it's an easy A. She seems pretty nice and helpful.

She's one of the kindest professors at slippery rock. I loved her class although it was boring at times, I enjoyed most of the material. She is extremely helpful and extremely smart. Definitely take her!

She is a nice person, but her class is very boring. No book required, you print notes from online. You have to sign attendance. Avoid the night class, too much all at once! Tests come straight from her notes, nothing extra. Do the study guide and you will ace the tests. Easy class. I got an A, but I couldn't tell you what I learned.

Comment:
Her teaching style is outdated. She wants you to be able to regurgitate information back to her instead of actually learning it. Extremely boring class. I tried listening everyday and failed miserably. She repeats herself constantly and gets caught up on information that isn't relevant. Go over the study guides religiously if you want a good grade.

WHAT A TERRIBLE PROFESSOR. This is the most boring class ever. It is very easy but ridiculously boring. Just study the study guide and you will do fine on the tests. Make sure you go to class because she always takes attendance but bring something to do.

Sorry, but this is a class that all education majors are required to take. It does not make any sense why she permitted to be teaching teachers. I've never seen any worse. If you just show up, you will NOT do well, but If you like the regurgitation system of education, then this class is for you. Hard to understand and hard to stay focused.

Not hard to understand or anything, but the class literally bores me to tears. SOOO BORING. Sorry Ed majors, at the time shes the only one teaching this class. Just study the night before the tests and you'll do fine. Attendence is unfortunatly required....good for getting zzzzzs

This class was so boring. Everything was on handouts and powerpoints, so that was alright! I couldn't pay attention in class for the life of me. Some of the stuff she wrote on the board didn't make sense. Her stories didn't pertain to class at al(babysitter doing pushups?!!) Worst class ever!!!

Comment:
Ok, the vulgarity in some of the reviews is not necessary. Dr. Anand seems like she is a nice enough person, and that she would make a great clinical psychologist but, her teaching skills suck. I couldn't not understand her, ever. She repeated herself over and over, and you could never tell what she was looking for on her tests. Wait on this class
