Comment:

Oh her online course is total torture. We're expected to take tests every week and a half and many of the questions that she addresses aren't described clearly on her lectures. We have no textbook to study from, which makes it even harder. I could search for the answer online, but the websites have different versions of the answers.

Comment:

DO NOT TAKE HER ONLINE COURSE. She assigns papers due every week-week & a half and expects them to be very long. I've submitted 14 page papers and received below a 90 on them. She isn't clear on what's expected, and even if you answer a question detailed and correctly takes off points if you don't "reference" prior assignments enough.

Comment:

She is a nice teacher,but she give A LOT of work for a summer course and she is very unorganized with what she expects from her students. She gives 6 page assignments (at least!) within a 1 week period. I would only recommend taking this class online if you have nothing else going on, because you won't have the time for anything but writing papers

Great professor to take in the classroom, such a sweet lady and an easy A she will go outof her way to help you. Online though she struggles to maintain the structure of the class. Definitely has some trouble in working on the computer and making sure that everything is up to date but she is understanding if you are having trouble.

Took her online course and all you had to do was an assignment every week and half. Love her in class, but online she totally forgot the class existed.

Dr. McManus is awesome!!! This is such an easy class, she sort of picks favorites, but doesn't dislike anyone. And the textbook is actually interesting, probably the only readings for a class that I've ever read! Take her, you won't regret it!

Definitely take Prof. McManus if you can!!! She is so sweet and really cares about teaching. She makes jokes during class and is really fun to listen to. She has a lot of experience and shares it with the class. Best class and teacher at Pace! Hardly any hw, fair tests (only 3) and is very understanding. The only thing, absence matters! great prof!
