Very helpful in TA sections but not so much in lectures because it's difficult to be specific in philosophy with 300+ people in a room.

Comment:
Professor Woody explains concepts in more than one way so everyone can understand. She is enthusiastic about the subject, which makes lectures engaging. The TAs do most of the grading, but she is there at her office hours for extra help or clarification. This was by far my favorite class of the quarter.

About this class: turned out to be really interesting, although readings are long, they're interesting to read. Not a hard class, reasonable amount of work, do consider if you're in need of W credit. About Woody: It's easy to see how passionate she is. Although she is slow at explaining concepts, she is indeed knowledgeable. Her TA's are amazing

Comment:
Dr. Woody genuinely cares if students are learning or not. This class was so interesting and really broadened my interest not only in philosophy but also in the performing arts, she also gives great essay feedback. I feel lucky to have been able to learn with her and would highly recommend her to anyone who wants a teacher who genuinely cares.

Comment:
Professor Woody seemed very passionate about the subject and I had no doubts about her knowledge level. She was enthusiastic and answered questions well during lecture. She posted the slides online which was very helpful if you ever missed a class. Only thing I didn't like was that lectures were very long and not much interaction with audience.

Woody is overall a great professor; she always came well prepared, her lectures were pretty interesting, and she was eager to hear student's input. She is definitely one of the few professors that really want her students to learn something, and is very helpful. I would highly recommend her!

My favorite prof at UW, well-prepared and enthusiastic for lectures, and foster student's own thoughts a lot. Easy-going on hw deadlines and very helpful at office hours; sets up online discussion boards and attend conversation frequently; She would be perfect if it is easier to get a good grade on her courses..

Andrea Woody is one of the best professors I've had. Super knowledgeable and teaches effectively. Even if you're intimidated by the sciences, this class will give you interesting insights. Best of all, she really cares about her students and philosophy of science. Go to office hours, she is also a great mentor!

Excellent lecturer, but I did sometimes fell a little lost. The readings are only moderately hard, but I recommend doing them if you want to get anything out of the class, plus there is not too much. Grading was fair and she is incredible at office hours.

Intensive, but very interesting. I wasn't able to put as much effort into it as I wish I could have, and that's a sign to me that it's a good class. She certainly knows what she is talking about.

Interesting class, but not one that a student with a non-science background should take. Too much reading to complete in one quarter and nowhere near enough time for assignments.
