If you want to teach as a profession, ignore everything she says. She lives in an ivory tower and has no conception of how schools today actually work.

Comment:

Lyn's not great, but really, what do you expect? There's really not much point in having an education program that doesn't offer licensure, so taking ed classes at DU is pretty pointless.

I find it ironic that someone with so many--and so loudly voiced--opinions on how teachers should teach is herself one of the worst teachers I have ever encountered.

Dr. Robertson is pretty bad, but if you keep your mouth shut and agree w/everything she says you'll get an A.

I went through the Denison education program some years ago. Upon entering the teaching field I had to "unlearn" everything I had learned from Dr. Robertson in order to be effective. Avoid her.

She is the most closed minded professor at Denison, which is what you would hope for in a professor training teachers, is it not!!

Comment:

Dr. Robertson is pretty mediocre. She doesn't make the material interesting and class discussions are a definite bore with her as the professor. I felt like whenever I was speaking in class she thought my point was irrelevent or stupid. She also gives papers without giving you any direction on them

I thought Lyn was great until I actually started teaching. Then I realized I'd learned NOTHING I needed to know. She's awful.

Comment:

Incredibly intelligent. Cares about her students and students everywhere. She has studied this area for many years, and while she is openminded, she's not going to agree with some innanely stupid comment just to make you feel better about yourself.
