Structural Geology is rough, but you will do well if you put the time in. It's a lot of work, just take your time with the labs. Don't be afraid to ask questions, if you don't understand.

This class was lecture heavy, something I am not personally fond of. We did have a lab maybe once a month. There are very little assignments to be graded on. The textbook is used for online assignments and you have to purchase the iclicker app which is an extra $15.

Dr. Campbell is a nice lady she really does care for her students and rocks. Geology was one of those dumb liberals I had to take and I thought this class would be a breeze. So obviously I didnt take it seriously... I got As and high Bs on all of the assignments but the tests were awful. 3 tests and I got an 80 76 and 70. And I might Get a c now..

Tests were extremely difficult. The essay questions were graded unfairly (some people received more points than others for some reason). Information overload, so everything becomes confusing. Only take this class if you have to. One exam was four days (lecture time) long because it had so many parts.

Comment:

Fall 2016 for physical geology. Biggest complain: boring. However, I understand it is difficult to make geology interesting, especially to non majors. Lectures were mostly from PowerPoint and ALL homework was online through McGraw Hill Connect, a dastardly invention if you ask me. Yet, she was willing to change my grade for a late assignment.

Comment:

This class was one of the hardest things I've ever taken. Her tests are impossible, all she cares about during class is getting the smart board to work because she's technologically challenged. I studied for hours before the test just to get C's. This 100 level class should not be this difficult. She's not easy to approach, and hard to listen to.

Most of her class is just power points and her lecturing. She gives online homework assignments and quizzes but they aren't that hard because you can use any sources to help. She then gives big tests but you take it as an individual and then as a group and you can use notes and books so you get two grades. The individual one is 75% and the other 25

Another strange professor but very kind. It is a lecture class, so she won't know who you are but she does try to make an effort for students to do well. Attendance is 15% of the grade and the Connect mods are 10% (which is why the book is necessary). So 25% of our grade is just showing that we can show up to class and do some online b.s. work.

Not a bad teacher, but the class is insanely boring if you don't care about rocks, because she assumes everyone cares about them as much as she does. Lots of online quizzes. Would recommend, but prepare to doze off every class.

Does her best to make the material easy to understand for non-science oriented students. Online quizzes for every chapter, graded group activities, and pyramid-style tests consist of your grade. Lecture is boring and so are the videos, but try to stay awake because the information in the videos will show up on the test. Final is cumulative.

Class was incredibly boring, perhaps that's because geology is not interesting to me. Anyways, class is pretty easy. Not much homework, online quizzes, and some movies are shown during class. Not much else to say, was what I expected: Boring class but easy A.

One of the best professors you can ask for. Repeats everything several different ways, several different times to make sure everything is clear. Shows a few movies in class (pertaining to the class). Very, very nice, always energetic. The book isn't really necessary except for an assignment or two, just go to class. Would take her again!

I recommend Campbell to anyone who just wants to get an easy lab out of the way. There are quizzes before every lab but they are really easy if you study the bold text in that weeks chapter. Labs can take a bit of time but she & the TA are more than willing to go around and lead you to the correct answer so don't be afraid to ask for help.

This class is boring, she speaks so monotone and when she lectures and puts on movies half the class falls asleep from boredom. Tests are difficult. I spent 4 hours studying and recieved a final grade of 68%. The class average was only 70%. I would sugguest avoiding.

Easy class if you pay attention. I recommend printing on the power point slides because she flashes through them pretty fast in class. Offers online quizes almost every chapter and exams are 75% self and 25% group.

Comment:

Easy class. On one test Dr. Campbell put questions on blackboard that could be on the test. About 90% of the test's questions came from blackboard and the class average was only a 78. This is ridiculous because Dr. Campbell does whatever she can to help you. Students do not take their education seriously. Read the chapters and you will do well.
