I loved Dr. Morgan. One of my favorite professors and her class was a breeze as long as you show up. There are quizzes every class but they were open note and you could ask the people around you. All of the exams were online and you don't have to buy a textbook.

I LOVE Dr. Morgan! Her lectures are amazing and hilarious! She wears fun astronomy tshirts every day that have to do with the day's topic. There are in class quizzes almost everyday, so definitely go to class! If you're there, she'll give you the answers! Homework and tests are tough but she is extremely helpful, and there is a ton of extra credit.

Dr Morgan makes this class very easy, and has a lot of extra credit opportunities. The textbook is online, so you don't have to buy one. Tests are online too. She is very clear with the homework, and gives you the formulas to use on it. She is also very helpful, and wants you to succeed.

Comment:

Dr. Morgan was a very quirky professor. There are a few tests, in-class quizzes, and a couple small papers. It is easy to get a good grade if you attend the lectures, because participation points outweigh test points. I took this class in Fall of 2013 and really enjoyed it. She offers a lot of extra credit and always wears fun tshirts.

Convinced Dr. Morgan teaches the easiest class at UNI. All material is online & so are her tests and quizzes. Gives a lot of extra credit, probably too much. Tests can be difficult, but they aren't that hard. Go to class, & dont forget about quizzes and tests. Easy A. 4 papers due, observatory visit, gives inclass quizzes, & 2 constellation tests.

Not the easiest class but still a good class. I failed all four tests and still managed a B in the class. She gives her students a lot of opportunity to get a good grade. Funny professor too.

Love her!! She is hilarious! Really great professor who cares about what she's teaching, also very knowledgeable. No textbook because it's all online. Tests all online and so are quizzes (except two). The tests are kind of hard but her points system make it easy to bomb all the tests and still manage an A. Interesting class. Highly recommended!

I took this class with the lab. I would recommend taking this teacher!! I don't know how I did it, but I PASSED that class with an A- AND I'm pretty sure I FAILED every single exam. (I know I definitely didn't get higher than a D on any!)

Tests and homework are difficult. Thankfully, she gives lots of other oppurtunities to keep your grade up away from those. There is a study session for homework. Going to class helps your grade. She keeps class interesting and fun. Got an A, even with averaging C's on my tests. Even though it was hard, great teacher!

Morgan is a great teacher, she will make the class fun and interesting, but if your looking for some crap bird class maybe college isn't for you, this class can be hard at times but she would help you @ 6 am if you really needed it. Would sugest not online b/c class is fun. few test just study like normal and most ppl are fine.

Comment:

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS ONLINE! It is my hardest class of my college experience, & I'm a senior. It's extremely time consuming, confusing, & frustrating. The tests are impossible. The HW takes a lot of time & effort. This class is NOT worth the work it takes. Unless you know you're good at/like astronomy, you'll hate it!

I took the online course. This class wasn't easy, and you have to stay on top of things in order to do well. I got an A but that was due to a lot of help from friends. First test was hard, other then that the class is not too bad. Her jokes in the notes are classic.

This professor is amazing. Not only does she keep astronomy amazing, but all tests are online, as well as homework. Her tests are impossible but even scoring roughly 30 out of 40 every time I ended up with an A in the class, even without taking the final test. She is witty, silly, and by far the best professor I have had here at UNI. She is als

Amazing professor, class is one of the most fun I've ever taken. Powerpoints in class everyday, online "text" (it's really just her explaining the stuff on her website), and tests on Web CT. I would highly recommend taking the lab along with it, it is awesome! Ignore all the negative comments on her, Siobahn rocks it!

This is one of the easiest classes I've taken in college yet. All of the tests are online so you can use all of your notes. Ms. Morgan is extremely funny as she busts out random sexual innuendos and comments about alcohol all the time. I'd also recommend taking the lab with this class due to its easiness. Most likely better than a chem lab.

She is really easy. All the tests are over web CT so if you use your notes and her online "text book" of notes you will do fine. She gives radom quizes that aren't hard, mostly based on attendence. Good professor
