She is unorganized and often forgets what she has said. She will need a e mail reminder but you will learn in her class and that is important. she honestly wants you the student to be successful.

Dr. Hodges is hard but good. She knows her stuff about history. I do like her, just stick to what she says on her assignments.

.... this class was the most difficult class ever. I had to take this class for the honors credit and its an 8AM... i struggle getting up but thats not the hard part. She teaches only by talking. No PowerPoint, no bullet points of important topics, etc. She doesnt use canvas so its hard trying to learn material if you learn visually.

If you are a student athlete, Dr. Hodges will go easy on you, basically a guaranteed A. For everyone else she grades unreasonably hard. Her lectures are interesting and she will review a bit before tests. There is usually one group project so pick a partner wisely! I have had her for two different classes and would NEVER take her class again.

unclear instructions says one thing and does another. I have respectfully failed a class. I give credit where credit is do. I had an emergency that cause me to not come to her final and she never answered a single E mail for feedback on what I should do about the final or a second option. I now have a 69.5% and am sure it may equal a F to her

She gave instructions, I tried my best to follow them and she still gave the lowest grade possible. I had an emergency and could not take her final . I asked for a second option and she gave none. I have a 69.5% my grade on canvas is a F I do not have a final grade. I have made an F before and actual drooped the ball did not try F. This was not me

A nice person, but not the best professor. Make sure to read all of the primary sources she gives you because they will show up on the final. Assignments (news journals, map quizzes, powerpoint presentation) are pretty easy. There's a content quiz that you can use your notes on but it's still pretty hard, and the final is brutal.

Not clear on instructions. She made all of my homework assignments 0 all because the sources weren't in the right place. Makes you look up topics in under an hour during class or you won't be graded. I feel like I haven't learned anything while taking her. Will be withdrawing from her class. I would never take her again.

She is a great person! I personally did not find her class hard, it was just making sure I did the homework on time. There was not a detailed syllabus, so be wary of that. Easy class !

Great lectures! I loved going to class to hear the next chapter of history. Everything is told as a story and it is so interesting.

Hodges is the sweetest lady, but you HAVE to pay attention in class to do well. Take good notes. She tells stories; REMEMBER them. Read the handouts as they will appear on the final. Easy map quizzes and powerpoint project. She will bring you candy, cookies, and donuts throughout the semester. Overall, easy fun class if you study and pay attention!

I took Dr. Hodges over Summer 1, it was fast paced and work was done everyday in class. She knows A LOT about history and does her best to prepare pre-service teachers for the TExES exam. She expects you to listen, contribute, and do your work the way she directs you to. Show up to class, take good notes, be respectful, and the A will be easy!

Have to admit that I was a bit intimidated by all of these reviews on here, but I was proven wrong! No book; everything is verbal or handouts. She also reviews before tests to let you know what to expect. Best advice is to come to class focused and really pay attention. If you have to do a project follow the guidelines and be creative. Great class!

Dr. Hodges is a tough professor, but I would absolutely take her again. I took her for a May-Mester so my class was probably different than a regular semester class. She gave a lot of homework. 3 map quizzes that are easy if you study. Final exam was very lecture heavy. She is very reasonable and does care about her students.

Very disorganized and brings cheesy things to class to show you. She spends more time talking about these things than what we really need to know. Take notes and organized it because her final is fill in the blank ie. list who was in charge of this trading company. No study guide. instead of map quizzes she should do quizzes over her lessons.

Dr. Hodges is a sweet lady, and is passionate about history. But she is terrible at teaching it. Please study for this class. There are 3 map quizzes (easy grades if you study) and pop quizzes (very hard) over content covered in class. She assigns a ton of homework (terms, content, and homework). Follow her instructions, and you might do okay.

Avoid taking Social Studies with Dr. Hodges at all costs. She is so unclear about instructions for assignments and told us our first content quiz would be over the content assignments, but they were over the lectures so everyone failed it. I am so frustrated with this class, I don't feel like I am learning at all and I am stressing out. AVOID!

Better check Blackboard frequently. She forgot to mention to the class that she was assigning homework and come class day over half the class wasn't even aware she assigned anything. She just said, "I thought I told everyone." The people who did it said they only knew as they seen her post it on BB but only left it open for 3 days. Worst class ever

So she counted off on my first set of terms I turned in saying they weren't cited how she wanted. She didn't even tell the class how she wanted them cited until AFTER we turned them in. When a student made her aware of that in class she just said, "Well going forward just do how I asked." Ummm how bout you go back & fix everyone's grade you docked.

Figure out a way to take another class. She grades too hard on criteria that she makes up and forgets to give directions that are important for your grade. If you don't follow her unclear directions to a T, then you fail the assignment. Not worth the stress for a class that can be taken elsewhere online or at a community college. WORST CLASS EVER!!
