Comment:
8-wk course. Assigned weekly: read chap sections given, chap quiz, and submit case discussion w/response per chap. Easy if you read and submit solid discussions w/text reference and provide examples to show understanding. Avg discussion w/response was 4-8 pages based on number of case questions-one para per question. Allow 48 hr email response.

Comment:
She isn't bad in my opinion, the material is just confusing and often times a little boring/unmotivating. Yeah, it takes awhile to grade because she has to read so many discussion posts. The class consists of two quizzes, discussions, and responses per week as it was an 8 week course. As long as you read, it really isn't hard. Quizlet is no help!

Comment:
Don't take her class. She's the worst professor that I've ever experienced: No office hours, no notes or lectures, slow response times, and an extremely harsh grader. She wrote her quizzes weird with a few misspelled words, so you'll miss questions even if you read all the material. It's evident to me she should not be in the field of teaching.

The online class is basically a quiz, a discussion post, and a response to someone else's discussion post. You have to really grasp the concepts in each chapter. It's not just a "look up the answer" type class. Understanding the text is important. All quizzes are multiple choice. The discussions have to have the chapter's theorists' ideas involved.

You wont hear from her at all really during the semester. the reading is a little difficult to understand, but it is the same thing every week, quiz & discussion board. Will grade discussion postings months later. Not a terribly hard class! Don't bother emailing her, she will not respond and if she does it will be a month or so later!

Comment:
I do not understand the horrible ratings for this class. It did take her some time to get grades/feedback to us, but just for the summer she had to read through at least 60 posts each week. There was a delay in her grading for us, but she helped us out in the end. It was a somewhat difficult class with the reading and you will need to put time in.

This is just a different type of online class. You read, take a quiz each week and do a discussion board over a case. The reading can be difficult as it is philosophy but just power through. The instructor is caring and will accommodate when necessary with reason. Ex. Dropped the last four instead of two discussions due to her delay.

Instructor doesn't respond timely to emails and doesn't grade or give feedback timely. This class is very hard and quiz questions aren't always clear. By far the worst class I've taken at WSU!

Instructor seems to be a grad. assistant at KU and is just teaching this class on the side. She would not grade simple discussion assignments until about 3 months after they were due. There was no clear grading criteria on these discussion assignments. She seemed to just read them, give the student 8/10 and that was all. There was not any feedback.

Does not grade appropriately and seems to not care about teaching. She is lazy with grading and sloppy with her quizzes and feedback. If you have to take this class, do not take it with her.

Comment:
It appears that Pine is a graduate teaching assistant at University of Kansas and only teaching PHIL 306 online at WSU for extra income. She has absolutely unclear grading scale, and did not grade assignments from three months ago. Although she gave plenty of feedback for our assignment from August, we did not receive those feedback until November.
