Comment:

One of the best classes I've taken online so far. One discussion and one content review are due every week that you need the book for but they're not hard. No tests, your final is a paper that you write once you choose from the prompts available. She even let me make up a few assignments that I missed! I highly recommend this prof & class

Professor Laura is a caring person. I toke her for online. She was always able to answer my questions through email. The only difficult thing for me was not having the textbook in hand because the assignments came from the chapter. But lucky i had students who would send me pics of the pages. Other than that her class was really easy. I recommend

I took the online course. TAKE THIS CLASS! No tests! Extremely generous grader. Assignments consisted of modules and discussions each week (not hard at all), and 3 written assignments. One of which counted as the final. I rarely used the book, and didn't do one assignment and one paper and still passed the class with a B.

She was awesome, gave me great feed back, and even asked for ideas of future content. I loved her. She made my first online experience the best.

I have never really had a better professor throughout my Valencia years. Professor Stevens is clear about what she wants, as well as a very lenient grader. She won't punish you for your mistakes, and she gives great feedback for the assignments. I definitely suggest this professor.

I took this 6-week class over summer and it was great. You definitely need the textbook for your assignments but they aren't too hard, just a bit of reading. This was my first time taking a 6-week class so I was stressed but this class was not overbearing. 10/10 recommend!!!!!

It was a fun class. Lots of reading and writing though. The professor is very helpful, just email her (I took online class). I definitely recommend.

TAKE THIS CLASS! I got 100%% on every assignment. No tests! Not a tough grader on modules or discussions. The modules can sometimes be a little hard but not impossible and like I said before, 100% on all assignments. I got the book but you don't really need it she provides slides with plenty of info on the chapters. Responds back to emails quick.

Comment:

Not an easy A, you will actually have to learn things and apply it to short response questions with specific rules to answering them. If you want to just glide through Myth then find someone else, and if you can't just settle for her and google the myths and paraphrase.

Comment:

No tests. You participate in discussions and answer questions about the reading. You MUST read the book. Sometimes the book isn't very clear either and may times you discuss the same topics. Professor is a fair grader, but not get involved in discussions. Do not email, only use blackboard or it'll take forever to get a response. Regardless easy A.

Comment:

Dr. Stevens is pretty cool and fun. With her, mythology was interesting and fun. Decent amount of writing for each module between chapter reviews and discussions but not bad. She has feedback on everything. Fair grader. Really into the material and helps you get into it as well.

Comment:

Whatever you do, do NOT take this class. The teacher assigns Module's that consist of three chapters in them. The assignment will take you about 15 hours to complete. I have cried from the work. The class is more like an upper level analysis of stories, that are boring. I have 3.9 GPA and am in my last semester, so trust me & do NOT take this class

Comment:

I generally do alright with online classes and in fact I have a high grade in this class, however it is incredibly boring and I imagine that it would be better on campus. Half the time I have no idea what she is looking for in the assignments and I just wings it (usually successfully). The class is not particularly hard but there is a lot to read.

Comment:

3 papers, one regular and then one is the final and the other is the midterm. You have to do chapter summaries and discussions for each module, can't work ahead. Responds to messages at 1am, so don't expect quick help, some instructions were unclear, but overall an easy A. Got a 98% with barely any effort to be honest. (ONLINE MYTHOLOGY)

Comment:

(Mythology) It was pretty easy just A LOT of busy work. I guess thats how it is for all online classes though. She really only grades for completion, except essays. And there are three. She takes FOREVER to reply to emails. She is pretty laid back and will accept late work. Like i said easy, but you'll end up putting A TON of hours into this class.

Comment:

As far as this online class goes, I find her to be lazy. She grades very slowly and her tests are basically 4 page research papers that require you to spend a lot of precious time reading extra chapters in the book. Meanwhile, we also have a research paper due. Her weekly discussion topics come right from her textbook are sometimes confounding.

Comment:

So far, this professor is not great. There are no clear expectations for assignments, she does not really help move discussions along. Her ppts are copypaste from the textbook. And you can't work ahead on the chapters, only the lengthy essays. You will need the textbook and be prepared to teach yourself. And watch strange videos for the discussion

Dr, Stevens is awesome! Don't worry too much if you missed an assignment because you were busy. She'll usually allow you to make it up. I learned a lot in her class and highly recommend her!

Comment:

Dr. Stevens is a fantastic communicator. I took her online and am going to take her again for mythology. Do the assignments, which are not difficult and you will pass. She likes to hear YOUR opinion, not just a repetition of the facts.
