Comment:

She is an awesome professor, helpful and understanding. Her Art 104 class is great, she gives a lot of feedback on assignments and if you follow her instructions, you will get an A. I will highly recommend you to take her class; at the end of you will leave her class with a lot of knowledge about Art. :)?

Comment:

Most insecure teacher I know!!It is desperating how boring she is, and only base her lecture on slides. If you have to take her, don't take it in the morning because you are most probably going to fall asleep.

Comment:

Professor Gaffney is a really helpful teacher and her lectures/powerpoints are quite interesting. what i like the most is that she is quick to respond to emails and really up to date on test scores. The tests are fairly easy and most of the questions are from the lectures so make sure u come to class. I definetely give this class a thumbs up! :)

Took class fast track and online, reading is really important as well as actively participating in discussion boards. Their was only one essay required and it was pretty easy, she tells you exactly what you need to research, exams were fairly easy. Make sure you do all of the text readings as well as take notes on powerpoint presentations.

She is awesome! Her class is an easy A. She allows notes on all of her tests including the final! Take really good notes and that's all you need. You will enjoy her class very much, I highly recommend her.

Comment:

Despite many problems with Blackboard, many hiccups along the route, this teacher was good. She made me like art more than I did before and the fact we had to write a paper on specific art, do discussion boards on certain eras of art, made this worthwhile. Read the book, you have to.

She is a very good teacher. She is VERY CLEAR. Very good class if you are interested in art. She is also full of other information related to the topic she talks about in class. EASY A! No book required. She has slides to last for days.

Class is very early so it/'s difficult to pay attention, but an easy class. Prof is a bit distracted and doesn/'t answer questions clearly (not enough coffee?). She tries hard, often seem frustrated with student/'s questons

she is the best teacher ever, all you have to do is come to class and take good notes and never read the book and you will pass the class with "A". even though her classes starts early in the morning is hard to focus coz ar is been boring all along and all you have to do is slides after slides, so i would recomend you to take her class she is easy.

This class is really easy. If you have a question on the test she practically gives you the answer. But she's really anal about attendance and being to class in time. And if she hears you talking she'll be like. "excuse me does anyone have a question?"

I enjoyed her class. Very nice and helpful lady. Pretty easy class if you go to class and take notes. Tests are ok, should read and review notes though.
