Very interesting class. Everything she talks about is important, reading is required bt helpful. Only five worksheets and five two page articles due each unit. Tests are all multiple choice fifty questions. VERY interesting class & she will help you with any question. Take the lab at the same time, it's easier.

Pretty easy class. As long as you go to class and pay attention you'll do fine. Used the book once but not necessary. She's very helpful and easy to understand, would take a class with her again!

Her multiple choice tests are so tricky because it always ends up with 2 answers seeming to be right. Also, she concentrates on the really really small stuff. Sweet lady tho.

This class is easy. The only reason to do bad in this class is lack of effort.

I don't understand why people say this class is so tough. A lot of different material is covered, but she doen't try to trick people o n the test. She is very helpful and willing to do whatever it takes to make sure you undertand. Yes you have to study for the test -- buy hey this is college.

Very clear, and organized. Will bend over backwards to help you. Will make exceptions for special needs. Doesn't use the book. Need to go to every class. Sudy notes for test. Will review previous days notes, will test you over everything. The first test is hard, but it gets easier from then on out.

Life cont & change is of course easy...she's probably ok to take for that class, but I would try to avoid her for GBII, since she confuses herself in lecture (I wonder what would happen if she couldn't rely on her notes & the teacher's manual?) Borin

Very nice lady, make sure to go to class, attendance counts for 20/140 points on every test, only homework is a study guide b4 each test, and an article review which each just help to improve your grade---the tests aren't too bad either--just go to class!

She was a great teacher. Class is easy, but I learned quite a bit. 6 tests, attendance points, worksheets and essay reviews make up the grade and all of those are extremely easy. Highly recommend for life continuity and change

Terrible prof. Confusing. Mixes up her own material, can't get it straight herself. Why does she try to teach it if she doesn't even know? AVOID HER!!! This class is tough!

The class is hard, but she is the sweetest lady ever! I wish she was my grandma. The only homework you have is a study guide before each test, which are pretty easy, and a short 1 page paper about a disease. Don't listen to the ppl who say she is bad!

Boring Class, Difficult tests, tends to make others consider changing their major. Horrible teacher. Doesn't even understand her own teaching. AVOID THIS PROF AT ALL COSTS!
