Extremely straightforward class. GO TO CLASS. Homework and quizzes are done online so if you follow the powerpoints you should have no problem getting perfect grades on those. They put the exams online as well for practice so if you spend an hour doing the practice exams you should have no problem getting an A. Theyre smart funny and interesting

I absolutely love Professor Baski. Very intelligent, into her work and personable to those who actually want to be helped. Exactly what I expect from a college professor. Anyone giving her negative remarks should go back to high school if they want to be babied, plus Energy! is a very easy course which I recommend :-)

Comment:

Anybody with an IQ above 80 should get an A in this class. I got a 100 on the midterm and the final. Skipped 2 homeworks and a quiz and still got a 97 in the course. It gets kinda boring though if you have it for longer than 50 minutes.

Comment:

This has got to be the EASIEST class at VCU despite who's teaching you. I highly recommend if you need a GPA booster. I very rarely went to class (its a clicker class & attendance is a part of the grade), did not do all of the assignments, and even skipped an online test and still walked away with a high B. TAKE THIS!!!

Comment:

Thought this class was going to be boring and easy. I found it very interesting and all though i chose the method of clickers so attendance was sometimes a pain, an A is so easy. Towards end the material gets more rigorous so do not slack off then! Overall, I loved it, I would suggest to anyone, do the clicker method i think, you learn a lot more

treats her students like crap under her feet. Rude for absolutely no reason. Needs people skills if she wants to be a professor.

works with prof hunnicut. this class is really easy if you take notes and get clicker questions right. only thing is, they dont give you enough time for the questions and tend to contradict themselves in the hw. but overall it's an OK class

Comment:

Very intelligent and definitely knows what she is talking about. The class is set up so anyone can learn the material. You learn a lot of very interesting and useful things that you can apply outside of the classroom. She tends to talk down to students, which I don't think she realizes she does, but after a while it can get old. Good class though.

Great and clear teacher. Teaches to the lowest level student in the class, making her extremely easy to follow and learn from. I literally did nothing but play Solitare and click in answer this semester, and I have an A.

Comment:

Even though I personally found her to be a bit annoying and often felt she was talking down to the class, she made the material easy enough to understand. Did not leave me with an undying love for Physics, but was not too hard to get through either. Do all the homework, journals, and quizzes, and you will be perfectly fine.

Dr. Baski is very interesting and has the philosophy that anything she teaches she should be able to explain to a 5th grader, making her very easy to understand. She has a good sense of humor and answers questions thoughtfully.

Comment:

Really great teacher. She isn't afraid to do her own thing. Once she climbed on top of a desk to demonstrate what to do during a lightning storm, class is generally entertaining. Really easy class, just make sure you do the homework and weekly journals, she does grade them.

Comment:

She's awesome! I absolutely love her. It's easy to do well, if you try. Do all the homework, and come to all the classes, and you'll at least get a B. She has an interesting personality, and she's a little short sometimes, but overall, she's really cool. She's a great physics teacher; she's brilliant. I recommend her class very highly!

Very smart professor with good examples and metaphors to help you learn the concepts. Gives you every opportunity to get an A, but you have to earn it.

Baski is good. She can be very blunt, and kinda scares people but i think she does it so you pay attention and it tends to work.
