Comment:

I was recommended this class for my last science credit because it was supposed to be an easy A. The weekly work is pretty easy, but the amount of work she gives makes it seem like she thinks this is the only class everyone's taking. The material is simple- climate change bad, environment ruined, etc. Take it with someone else who gives less work!!

I have her online and she is very tough. The test are nothing from the book or notes, she is a super heavy grader, and she takes almost a whole day to answer a email and still does not answer a question. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS IF YOU DO NOT HAVE TO! It will ruin your gpa! Dont do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This teacher was the worst science teach that I have ever had. She was just terrible. Her class is designed for you to fail and she will state that. She is not very helpful outside of class or in class. She tries to confuse you on purpose. The tests are 4 essay questions and she expects you to know material not covered. Not recommended.

DO NOT TAKE HER ANTH 201 CLASS!!!!!!!! There is not a textbook. You only get two nonfiction books to read that you have to take quizzes on. Her lectures do not match the vocab quizzes or tests. The only easy thing in this class is the discussion posts and getting horrible grades. You never have enough time to take the tests or timed quizzes either.

Fantastic teacher! Her lessons were always funny, and insightful. She can be tough on grading, though. So remember to study! Must show up for the lectures - show up for class and you should be able to get 85% of the information you need to pass.

Her quizzes are ridiculous. Ive done the reading that was required and spent hours researching terms etc. and STILL fail her quizzes. Her questions are so out there and have nothing to do with the PowerPoints that she provides. Worst class Ive EVER taken.

Lots of Bunny trails, she has a hard time staying on topic, talks a lot about personal life, I think she cares for her students but was kinda mean to a few choice people cause they were annoying. Ended up with an A in the class cause I did the assignments. ask for study guides they help.

Comment:

Mrs. Broadus came to class prepared with slides and ready to have fun with the subject. I really enjoyed her hands-on projects and explanataions. Also, she was very helpful outside of class to council you or give tutoring sessions. She is 100% invested in her students.
