Comment:

Professor Coplan very likable and has an amazing personality. She gives very insightful knowledge on Philosophy towards Cinema. However, my only complaint is that she heavily lacks organization. Doesn't grade papers on time. Doesn't keep up to date on grades, which can be extremely frustrating. She also would be late to class often.

I am a Film major and I took this class and loved it it really helps if you want to do critical studies in film. the material was interesting made you think about films in a different way. readings where a little challenging but overall worth it. mid-term, final, couple of pop quizes, and a group project. its a cumulative final.

Comment:

A nonstop source of brilliant insight and hilarious commentary! You can learn so much from her lectures, and the content we cover in class. She will go way above and beyond for anyone of her students. On top of that she is a bad ass feminist who loves TV and movies! She needs to start a podcast, to continue to entertain and educate the masses!

Comment:

Coplan is the sweetest professor I've had; she reminds me of Leslie Knope from Parks & Rec. She is so genuine & funny; I've learned so much from her I would take any class she teaches. Attendance isn't mandatory but she does give out quizzes randomly on readings. Her lectures are fun & there's only the midterm, final, and 1 3-5 page paper. Take her

Professor Coplan is my new favorite professor. She is so funny and makes the content so easy to understand and relatable. She really cares about her students and is willing to work with them. Two tests, one paper, and occasional quizzes on the readings. Lecture really prepares you for the exams! Very straightforward class. I learned so much!

Dr. Coplan is the most amazing college professor I've ever had! She possesses a very engaging teaching method that will make you look forward to her classes each week. Her lectures are among the very best I've heard on any subject, she has such a thorough understanding of the material. Class is easy, but she'll inspire you to work harder. Take her!

Comment:

Though Coplan has a funny personality she was very disorganized. I felt she was unreliable and flaky when it came to meeting for office hours. She grades things really late so it is uncertain to know what your grade is until far after the midterm. Her readings can be very long but you must read them to do at least okay.

Comment:

Coplan knew her subject better than any other professor I have seen. Her class was fun to show up to but make sure you read because she gives pop quizzes. Take notes on what she writes on the board and you should be fine. The only thing I would say she could work on is being a little more organized when it comes to grading.

She is a great professor. There is lots of opportunities to succeed. Take her assignments serious because she does quizzes next class. Everything in her class is divided by 20% each. There are a lot of quizzes but she accepts top 6. She has a midterm and cumulative final. She talks about her dogs and shes awesome take her.

Comment:

Coplan is very funny and extremely nice. She gives out a lot of extra credit and is very lenient when it comes to late assignments. There is a couple pop quizes that were very easy, an easy paper, and the midterm and the final. The book is mandotary because you have to do the reading for the quizes, but after the quizzes she goes over the material.

Dude shes dope, TAKE HER. she makes class and subjects interesting and you learn a lot. Class is structured well. If you go to class and take notes on what she says, than the two essay based tests are fairly easy. other than that just pop quizzes on the readings and she drops your lowest two. a few participation points too but thats it. DO IT!!

She is an amazing teacher! she takes the time out of her busy day to help any student pass the class. She is a funny professor and she knows her philosophy. She is very passionate about her subject and she's funny. Took her philosophy class during summer and it was amazing! She bought us all starbucks and she bought us donuts.

Amy is awesome. She's young, hot, and is really passionate about her subject. She is ridiculously smart and a breathe of fresh air to a rather dry subject. YOU HAVE TO READ (pop quizzes to figure out if you did or not). Course consisted of 2 tests (midterm and final), group presentation, and a couple of reviews for symposiums. Easy class.

I love her so much. If I could take every Philosophy class with her for my major, I would have no problem. She's one of the best professors I've ever had. Class if pretty much mandatory because there are little pop quizzes, but if you love philosophy, then you'll love going to class anyway. Who does have a love for knowledge ;)

Amazing professor whose knowledgeable in just about anything you'd want to ask her, or she'll tell you how to find the answer. If you visit office hours, she'll talk you through any problems with the course you might be having and she's very friendly with her students. Would highly recommend.

Literally she's the greatest philosophy teacher I ever expected. She's super funny and even made me consider minoring in philosophy. (Crazy right?) Take her for whatever class you can that she teaches. She knows how to lecture about complicated material and make it so her students can understand. My favorite class, I loved it a lot

Dr. Coplan is amazing! I hated Philosophy before taking her class. However she sparked my interest in it!She is super fun and energetic. She explains complex concepts very well. You have to do the readings since there are quizzes almost weekly.Go to the review sessions they are very helpful. if you want to learn a lot in a fun environment take her!
