Comment:

Dr. Menager genuinely cares for her students, so much so that it translates into an online class. She is responsive to your questions. The class has several writing assignments ranging from 500-1800 word minimums. The assignments are a bit time consuming but not difficult at all. I got an A with minimal effort.

Comment:

Great professor, not too many papers but they get longer as the quarter goes on. open book exams, but they can get tricky, you need the textbook! she opens the final paper a month in advance. Extra credit opportunity in the beginning of the term. Take her! She's the best

Comment:

Gives assignments ahead of time which is good. Some are extremeley tedious. Exams get HARDER as the quarter progresses. Def have the textbook handy during them. If looking for an easy A, I thought this would be, but definitely not "easy." I got an A. exams were ridiculous though.925

Comment:

Easy on-line course as long as you do well on the exams which are open book, multiple choice and not timed. Had a couple of papers; not too hard. Nice prof. There are no discussion questions like other on-line classes I've had.

Comment:

took psych 40 online with her. the reason that i gave 4 out of 5 for easiest is the last biography, it has to be 5 pages single space perfect or maybe she graded me wrong anyways Definitely easy B grade. Open book quiz and exam.

Comment:

Lectures are scattered and disorganized. Assignment due dates were unclear. She claims to be flexible about making arrangements for take home exams if you have to work or travel all weekend, but this is false. Reading the book helps more than listening to lectures. Her analysis of cases tend to be surface level, lacking depth. But she means well.

Comment:

i felt like this class was going to be interesting, and then that changed. there are a lot of papers, and she missed 2 weeks of class due to her being sick, without changing the work load. Then class became more like a therapy session then actual learning,.. thats not what i paid for..

I took her online developmental psych class she is really great. She is very understanding and even teaches this class online during the summer sometimes too. Her classes fill up very quickly so sign up with her before it gets too late!

Comment:

I received full credit on all the writing assignments and writing is not my forte. I was on vacation most of the time because the class was online, and I took it during the summer. I managed to get 536 points out of a total of 540. I'm not psychology major!

Comment:

Dr. Menager is very old-school in her teaching style. She has mandatory attendance(up to 3 abscences) because she grades on "participation," basically attendance. Other than that though, shes great! Really interesting and knows a ton of info. I was in a hybrid online/on campus class and her assignments are straightforward.So she is a solid teacher.

Comment:

Easiest teacher ever. Don't need to pay attention in class or understand the materials very clearly, just hand in the assignments on time and fulfill the requirements. Four take home exams in total and all open-book. Final paper is a bit trickier so make sure you have a textbook to refer to. Highly recommended for easy A, but don't expect to learn.

Comment:

Took the online class and let me just say- she and her TA never log in which can be very frustrating. & there's SO much reading. Since it's a 5 week course I had no time to read an entire textbook (no lectures, just reading). Easy A because the tests have no time limit. Didn't really learn anything though, which sucks because I'm a psych major.

Comment:

Super easy class. All tests are take home open book, papers are little more than copying words out of the book. I would have liked to see more critical thought in the class, but it was still interesting. She is very disorganized, but it's a fun class.

Comment:

Took human development online. I liked the class. It's very flexible, and the workload is reasonable. A LOT of reading, but that's made up for by not too much else to worry about. The papers are relatively brief, and the exams are not too difficult. (There were a few lame questions that made no sense, but she gave us credit for those.)

Comment:

Dr. Menager? Who's that? She demands that you sign onto the site @ least 2x a week, yet she is M.I.A for WEEKS. She has a TA, but she's MIA as well. The "questions" forum is always active with students searching for the professor. Students became concerned at one point and she didnt even bother to respond to the post. I dont recmd this class online

Comment:

DO NOT LIKE THIS TEACHER!! 1) she is appearantly a "doctor" yet refers to individuals with mental illness as "crazy". She is not respectful and tends to tell A LOT of personal stories that are inappropiate and should probably be more confidentical, if not at least don't SMILE AND LAUGH when telling the story, as if mental illness and severe distres

Comment:

I took the online class two quarters ago.The class is easy but u pretty much teach yourself. She didn't do any teaching. We had NO online lectures, only reading assignments and test which are copied straight from the book. Someone tried contacting her and she replied a week later claiming she was sorry but was busy writing a book. WTF?Easy A though
