Comment:

Boring lectures but she gives study guides and posts all the power points online which are put directly on her tests. Every test is comprehensive (test 2 has questions from test 1, test 3 had questions from test 1 and 2)

Comment:

Professor Fearn tries really hard to make lectures interesting. She did group work a lot and tried to make it all fun.. She gives little quizzes and grades so it's not all based on tests. Study for her tests though, you can't wing them. Meetings aren't required but they are helpful to your grade.

Comment:

This is my second time taking her and I like how she lectures. It is a lecture class so if you are easily distracted and can't take good notes than don't take her but she knows her stuff. She is a wonderful professor. Her tests are hard if you don't study but the review before the test is very helpful. DO THE STUDY GUIDES!

Dr. Fearn's class was okay it was pretty easy, but if you don't like group work avoid the team based class.

Comment:

She is a great professor but the team learning based class is garbage. 50% of my grade counts from my team preforming well. Most of them either didn't show up for activities or test, or participated in the activities. If it changes from that would be good class. Study for test and pay attention how the questions are worded. She will trick you

She's a nice lady and her tests are easy when you study. Just go to class and take notes and you should be fine.

Comment:

Teaches with great enthusiasm and clearly loves her subject. If she does the team learning thing again I would not take her class as some of her grading on group projects was more than questionable. Great lecture teacher though. Tests were easy. The quizzes were difficult because she gave vague details in lecture and expected specifics on quizzes.

Comment:

This past fall semester Professor Fearn did an experiment for the first time with team based learning/lecture in a class of 90 people. 4/5 major group projects. DON'T BUY THE TEXTBOOK!!I also questioned her way of grading. If you enjoy a lot of group based things then take her, but you've been warned.

Easy class to take. A quiz is given about once every two weeks, attendence is a grade there are about 4 group proects throughout the semester. Mrs. Fearn is very helpful if you have any questions. I would recommend this class, you just have to attend.

Comment:

The textbook is barely ever used because all of her lectures are on powerpoint and that's what's on the test. She makes material available on her website. She's a very easy teacher and she actually made the class interesting. I highly recommend her!

Comment:

She enjoys what she teaches and has passion for geo. Class is pretty easy if you show up, on tests she asks many trick questions and words them difficultly so be prepared. I recommend severely studying the study guides she gives for best test results. Classes are pretty boring and she is monotone even though she tries not to be. I would recommend.

Comment:

Very straightforward class. No book needed since all the information comes from slides that you print out prior to each class. No quizzes during spring or fall semesters, only tests and attendance count towards your grade. She gives study guides and a whole class period dedicated to studying the guide. As long as you attend class, you're good!
