Comment:
Linda Gooding is the worst teacher that I've ever had. She treats students at CSU as if they are at Harvard. She tries to weed out students and she offers no help. When you meet with her, she gives vague answers. Avoid her. She is the pits. I enjoy classes that are challenging, but she doesn't give a rip about her students or their future.

Comment:
Absolutely horrible! I had her class freshman year 1st semester BIGGEST MISTAKE! Her introducing line when the class started was "look around the room 60% of you will fail or withdraw before your final" Sad but so true. AVOID if at all possible. She gives you extra credit assignements and then fails you on them so they don't even count. DROP NOW!!

Comment:
I don't recommend her at all. All of my grades have been A's and B's, but I received an F in her class. Her tests are from the textbook (very fair) and from irrelevant "readings". She is also a Bible thumper.

Comment:
This class was kind of dry, lots of videos on overseas issues. I learned a lot though. Note of caution- keep your movie notes brief because 4 pages of notes for a question that appears once on a test is not worth it. And listen for the word dropping. Eisnehower's policy was iso.........the class looks around......lationist. She does that often.

Comment:
This was the hardest class I have ever taken. I like history but she made it boring. Hard to tell what would be on the test. Just talked and talked while you try to write down everything she says because it is all testable material, even the smallest details. If you can avoid taking her class, I would recommend it.

She rambled, the notes never had anything to do with what was on the test. She jumps from one subject to the next. She needs to give it up

Very professional, uses the entire period to lecture or show movies, gives a straight forward syllabus at the beginning of the semester that helps you follow along, if you attend class, take notes and do the extra credit you will do fine.

Comment:
Mrs. Gooding gives a lot of information at once, but it is manageable. She gives extra credit on test. Develop a good memorization method and you'll do good. Good Educator, I hope she doesn't let bad students and CSU soften her up into giving weaker test to lazy students. Keep up the good work.

I had always heard really negative things about her, and i'm terrible at history, but her lectures are extremely organized and easy to understand. Also, her tests are not nearly as bad as I expected them to be, and she give extra credit on every one. She really knows what she's talking about.

Good grief. The woman comes in, rambles so fast, and expects you to remember it all. Difficult class.

Please take notes! Without the note, you will not survive. The world's first human history book! Just study and don't forget to take those notes.

She's not that bad, just take notes and read the stuff she says to. Provides opportunity for extra credit. Shows LOTS of videos. You can survive, its not that bad, especially if you like history.

She isn't as bad as everyone says! I got a B in her class very easily. Just take good notes and you'll be fine. The only thing is her lectures are boring. Other than that, she's a good professor.

She enters lecturing and exits lecturing, but as long as you take good notes and study you will pass.
