Comment:
Terrible professor. Tough grader. Has a rubric for each assignment but always finds something wrong to not give full credit. Most difficult online class i have taken because of her harsh grading . Take with another professor to save yourself the aggravation. Even some of Revel answers were difficult to find, answers were in different chapters.

Comment:
Most disorganized professor ever. This is an online class and she went a month without emailing the class. She's rude, tries to intimidate, and condescending to students. Her assignments are confusing and virtually impossible to complete to her level of expectations. Why be a professor when you treat the class and students so carelessly?

Comment:
Currently taking the course. It is one of the WORST I have ever taken. It's organized for the most part but her expectations aren't clearly laid out, she doesn't post grades regularly, and she is extremely, EXTREMELY, picky about APA citation - I'd say more so than she is about what she's actually teaching. Be ready to work for hours.

Professor Watson is very unorganized and forgetful. The slides take forever to review and non of the informaion ties together. I can't say unorganization enough.....

Yes. This teacher did miss a week of class and didn't let anyone know in advance. But she is straight forward and does not sugarcoat any of the material! If you go to class every week, read the book, listen, and are not afraid of teaching in front of others then there's no excuse for not doing well.

Comment:
Cancelled class with NO notice to finish a research grant proposal, that we had already readjusted classtime to give her time to work on. I pay tuition to be taught! A professor's job is to teach first, and fit in the time for other things around classes. Her lack of time-management isn't her students' problem!Unprofessional and inconsiderate.

Comment:
She is very staight forward, and extremely knowledgeable. Some students do not like because she teaches you things the way they are SUPPOSED to be done, not the way many districts cut corners. Pay attention and start early. She is very understanding though if you are having trouble.
