The class had one or two time consuming projects. The homework for this class was not very hard just required a lot of research/ reading. Her tests were usually online /open book and with lots of time to prepare. Overall, she is a very nice and empathetic teacher.

Dr. Dooley is one of the most genuinely kind, enthusiastic individuals I've encountered in my career as a student. Please do yourself a favor and take as many courses as possible while she's still teaching.

She's a very caring teacher! She gives you plenty of time to absorb and discuss material before she ever tests you on it. Even if you write the wrong answer on the test, she'll give you partial (or almost full) credit for your answer as long as it's detailed and well thought out.

LOVED HER!!! One of the best professors I have ever had at WSU. I took two classes from her last semester and she was great. She is tough but in a good way. Make sure you are prepared for class everyday if you take her class

lots of fun, gives extra credit to students who show up to class on days class size is small. engaging material. you have to put effort into it, but she's an easy grader and just cares about gaining your interest. loved her! all exams take-home. two essay questions each exam, pretty easy. powerpoints fun. doesn't stick to syllabus, though.

Comment:

Engage your brain during this class. The information actually becomes helpful in the real world. Her assignments are easy and doable for the busy student (about 2-3 chapters per section of study and there are 3 or 4 sections). The readings helped me with understanding but aren't necessary. Just attend class and be engaged in the discussion.

Dr. Dooley is awesome. She is a fantastic professor who really knows her stuff. It can take a while to get used to her absentmindedness, but once you get past that, she is really funny and extremely helpful. If you give her a chance, you will love her and her classes!

Excellent teacher - bad ratings are from bad students for her - she goes on tangents sometimes, but that's life.

I loved Dooley! Certainly one of the most fun teachers I've had. She's very friendly and makes class fun. Her power points are always nifty and extremely useful. Mostly importantly, she cares about her students. Seriously.

Overall a really good teacher. If you listen to her lectures and take down notes you seldom have to refrence the book. She can't opperate a computer for the life of her, but it makes the class fun. Space Cadet Dooley was our nic. for her :-)

Comment:

Ms. Dooley is an expert in her field who deserves better students than she often gets. I agree; people are just mad that she makes them work. She sometimes appears nervous, but that doesn't mean she sucks. She's always willing to help out after class.
