Comment:
This professor will not give you the grade you deserve; plan on spending massive amounts of time on assignments of which she will nitpick over very minor issues. She will make it close to near impossible for an A, even if you put in the work which is very frustrating. Though, I will say she is a nice woman and genuinely cares about her job.

Comment:
Initially, I was content with her overall teaching strategy and feedback she gave me following the usual irregular mini class speeches. However, you will learn that she is not against harsh grading penalizations for trivial mistakes. The course material does not in any regard match the level of seriousness she takes of either the class or herself

Prof Roeder is a very caring professor and outlines her requirements very well. If you do not show up for class it's very hard to pass but you do everything she assigns you'll be set. She has a quick response times to emails and is willing to meet with you if need be. Overall a great professor!

Not terrible, just average professor. 2 Exams( both are relatively hard SO YOU NEED THE TEXTBOOK). 1 project that is a little fun, and journal assignments. Don't do the journals last minute or she WILL know and give a bad grade. Honestly will have to work hard for A but class is within B- to B+ range for average students. If all else fails she ok

Roeder is a good choice for 202. She is very honest, direct, and competent. she genuinely has a passion for the material in 202 and wants to see her students do well. Lectures are interesting and worth going to. USE THE WILEY PLUS SOFTWARE THAT COMES WITH YOUR TEXTBOOK as it was super helpful for the tests!!!!

She is one of the most challenging but wonderful professors I've come across. She is very responsive with e-mails & ready to help you outside class as well. 3 Exams; Group PPT i.e. 150 pts (Choose your own group), Agenda/Minutes, other activity.. That's all there is to this class really. You get to learn a lot & improve your interpersonal skills.

Prof. Roeder makes the tests harder than they need to be. She is also very precise on grading. The class seems easy, but her tests cause you to study more than you should have to for the class.

Nice lady, but I feel like her lectures are inconsistent with test questions. 2 test (50 mc each, each worth 20%) & no final. Group project (20%), participation (20%) easy money, 2 journal article assignments 10%, & mini-presentation. Would recommend, but make sure you understand stuff very well before taking exams.

Take Ms. Roeder for 202! Class consists of 3 tests, participation and a group project (worth a lot of your grade). Very clear grading criteria! She genuinely cares about her students and wants them to do well. She is very personable and approachable outside of class! Love her and I hope to have her again as a teacher in the future.

Roeder is extremely nice and wants her students to do well. She makes her grading criteria very simple and there is not much work involved in the class at all. Tests are all multiple choice and once group presentation. Easy A-, she knows a lot also so you learn a lot.

Comment:
Unnecessarily harsh grader, she takes one of the few GPA boosting classes for COB and makes it extremely difficult to get an A. Lectures are air filled and don't prepare you for the tests. I completely believe I put in enough effort to earn an A and I got stuck with a B. Would avoid if a better option is available.

This class seems easy and to an extent it is, but she does not make it easy at all. All the course work is simple but she makes things so much harder than they should be. She grades so harshly, and when you go to office hours, she refrains from giving you the information you need to succeed. Participation is a big part of your grade.

This class, although very easy, is extremely frustrating. The grading works against you to make it very easy to get a B but hard to get an A. She's not clear on what she wants for the major assignments and yet takes points off for the smallest details. If you want an A, stay on top of everything for the whole semester.

Roeder is a good professor, and shes a nice person. She tends to downplay her tests and projects though, so they're a lot harder than expected. She also doesnt give specific directions for the final project that makes it confusing. You have to show up to class and participate in order to do well, participation is huge. Overall, not a bad class.

The easiness rating is misleading. You MUST have a good work ethic and participate to do well in this class. She can be stubborn and pick favorites, but she wants this class to be taken seriously. Study for the quizzes and have some guts to PARTICIPATE. Participation is huge. Group project sucks, so just do it. Ask for help too! She loves that

Getting a B can be done with minimal work, but if you want anything higher, its going to require a lot of work. 9 quizzes that aren't easy if you don't read, grades the group presentation pretty hard. But always looked forward to class cause she's a pretty chill person.

Comment:
She takes this class way too seriously, when it is basically GCOM. The class itself is not very challenging but she wont let anyone get an A. She has weekly quizzes that are kind of challenging if you don't read and she makes papers and assignments due on the day of the quizzes. A lot of busy work, boring lectures.

Professor Roeder is a great COB 202 teacher! She tells you exactly what she wants from every assignment (there is only three and then 9 quizzes). She makes class short and sweet. Lets you leave early all the time! She really cares about her students and it makes a world of difference. Honestly best COB 202 teacher! Great person to know at JMU

Professor Roeder is an excellent professor. It's for sure not an easy A, but if you put in the work you're good to go. Her lectures are interesting and relevant. A lot of work, but I would take her again.
