Professor Goodwin is great! 4 exams and a cumulative final, which are all doable if you complete the recommended hw problems and the review. We only met via Zoom on Mon & Wed, then she'd usually post a video or quiz for Fri. Don't be afraid to ask questions and don't worry if you've never taken calc before!

Took this class via Zoom and wow! professor Goodwin was so kind and caring. I genuinely felt like she wanted me to succeed throughout the semester. The exams and quizzes were very fair and no surprises as it should be. She teaches VERY fast, but also very clearly. Dont be afraid to ask questions because she will answer all of them! 10/10 recommend

She cares about her students and the material they're learning. If you've done algebra and some basic math before college, then this class won't be hard. Otherwise though, she explains the material very well, and often lets you out of class early if you get done with the lecture. 4 tests and a final, not hard.

Super chill professor and a very easy class. She only takes attendance the first couple days and makes a lot of the quizzes take home. The tests are almost identical to the study guide and if you show up to class and do the worksheets they will be very easy for you.

Goodwin is great. Business Analysis is definitely easier if you've already taken calculus, but her teaching allows for success even if you haven't. If you skip class, you'll miss a lesson & probably feel behind, but if you pay attention while you're there, you'll be good. Review packet prepares you for tests. Sit close to the front! She's quiet!

Goodwin is a good professor and seems to enjoy interacting with her students and helping them out. The only negative about the class is that Goodwin tends to FLY and I MEAN FlY through her lessons so you have to ask her to slow down. It is important to go to class because it's easy to fall behind. 4 Tests, a few quizzes online quizzes and 1 final.

Patient & helpful. Does take attendance, but important to attend in order to keep up. Quiz and test questions come from the test reviews and homework. The very first test will be REALLY easy. But keep study habits consistent. The lessons get way harder. 4 tests overall. Class average after each test (by memory) : 93 - 78 - 72 - 76.

Colleen is so nice and laid back. Once the class starts getting hard, she starts giving take home quizzes just to give you extra points. The tests can be hard, but as long as you do the homework and the review packet she provides then they are much easier. Definitely the best BUSN114 professor.

She is so chill! She is really understanding about busy times, especially game nights. She often makes quizzes take home, and then gives us all 100% anyway. The homework is optional, but a good idea to do. Weekly quizzes, and bi-weekly tests. She doesn't take attendance, but she covers a new topic every class, so I would go if I were you.

I LOVE Colleen! This class is really one where you get by as a result of your own knowledge and hard work as it is only determined by quizzes and tests. However, quizzes and tests are fairly easy if you take the time to master the skills and study. Goodwin is awesome and super funny. You'll love her and her cute dog

Does take home quizzes which are graded as 100%. Do not need to do homework as it is not checked and not very helpful. Provides study guides for tests and final. Easier than when I took stats in high school. Brought her puppy to class! If that is not a good enough reason to take her class I don't know how to help you.

Goodwin was a great prof to take for a required math class! It was pretty easy and she drops the lowest test score which is great. Also a majority of the quizzes were take home. She's so cute and sweet and I would totally recommend her. Love her!

Best math teacher ever. I'm not a math person, and she made stats super easy and is always accessible and helpful outside of class. She's very understanding of the fact that we're busy college kids and all the homework is optional and she drops your lowest quiz score at the end. She also brought her puppy to class one day and tells funny stories!

Colleen is the best. The content of the class was somewhat difficult for me, but she gives a review before the test which is extremely helpful. There are only 4 tests (and she dropped my lowest test grade), a few quizzes (which she often didn't even grade), and a final. The homework is completely optional too

Nightly homework but completely optional. If you want to do well, you show up to class and do the homework. Weekly quizzes, four tests and a final. She drops your lowest couple of quizzes and is an angel during office hours, very willing to help and very understanding!

Colleen teaching of Introductory Statistics is clear, simple and understandable. She assigns optional homework every night for extra practice, her tests are exactly like the review packets she gives and she's a big fan of take-home tests. Not only are her lectures short and to the point, she's really funny too!
