Very easy A. At first I thought she would be hard cause of her nigerian accent... Her lectures were therefore worthless, but she does try. She had two tests over just a total of 4 chapters...all semester. Class ends soon if the class votes for it. Goes through notes too quickly, so read the material and learn it yourself.

Although the class can become tricky, to me, it can be more helpful to learn about America's government systems.

Professor Donn is an amazing professor. I am currently taking her for Intercession and although the 5 weeks can seem intense, especially with POLS, she assures that it is possible to do well. Lectures are summaries of the chapters in the textbook so they can be a little boring; however, she prepares you well for exams and is kind! HW is also easy!

I took her in Intersession. As far as I know, students need to pay attention in lectures and what's due. Also, be prepared to go in front of both the class for debates and for a City Halls meeting. The exam's are difficult if you don't read the textbook and the slide notes. She does give students confidence to pass her class.

she has a heavy accent and gets frustrated when you don't understand her. She slams her hands on the desk, and she talks very aggressively. She only accepts homework on mondays, (if you take the Monday & Wednesday course). So if you miss Monday, good luck on getting those points back. She expects you to read the syllabus, no reminders on anything

Good teacher with not a lot of work. Doesn't like to repeat herself so make sure you are aware of what's due and when. Easy grader with 2 quizzes, exams, one research paper, and weekly headline topics. Not hard to pass, just do your work and show up. Not stressful either, in my opinion.

She impressively managed to violate every Institutional Code of Ethics for Antelope Valley College faculty over the course of 2 classes. She is an astonishing liability to the College.

she is an amazing professor, doesn't give much hw but you do need to turn it in on time for full credit. She will remind you over and over what is due no excuse why to miss an assignment when she constantly reminding us about them. I recommend her to anyone looking for a good pols instructor. She is funny and makes what she teaches relatable to us.

She is horrible and you need to read the syllabus for everything but yet doesn't really explain anything. She responds to emails kind of aggressively. She likes you to turn in everything by email and halfway through semester sent out an email about not being able to grade quizzes bcs 44 students submitted to canvas instead of emailing them to her.

So many papers

Genuinely one of the worst classes I've ever had the misfortune of attending. Unbelievably rude and unprofessional. You learn absolutely nothing in this class. You write down news headlines and that's it. Of course, you're expected to take multiple exams and quizzes in a row on subjects she never taught you on. To everyone taking her, Good Luck!

When I took this class, it was really easy. All you had to do was submit 100 new headlines every Monday. You had to write the occasional essay and take the occasional quiz. My problem was that she refused to grade my final project because she couldn't find the link in my email. When I confronted her with proof, she ghosted me.

I feel like the class was really easy but she was extremely rude. Her feedback was always backhanded, and rarely responded well in emails. Every time I had a question she asked me to go to her syllabus, though it was vague and longer than 10 pages. It was hard to contact her and I felt like she was not helpful.

Good teacher, pretty much all the assignments were in essay format outside of the exams. If you know how to stay on top of your work this class works for you. Has a research project that involves attending and asking the city council a question so just keep that in mind if you're shy or very antisocial lol.

The syllabus holds all your work, quizzes, and testing info. Prof. Donn is available if you need her, but mostly hands-off. Read your chapters and do your work the class is an easy A. You must attend a city council meeting. I attended virtually. You do have to write a few one-page papers. They are in the syllabus so you can start anytime.

Professor Donn's POL101 class has mixed reviews. While some find the coursework straightforward, others report vague instructions and unhelpful feedback. Attendance is mandatory, and a textbook is typically required. Unstuckstudy AI can be a great study aid alongside regular class engagement.

The class itself was very easy. Most of the homework consisted of weekly news headlines. But the professor herself was very difficult to work with. Anytime I would email her she would respond very passive aggressively and would tell me I did an assignment incorrectly but would not direct me on how to correct it.

Rude, unprofessional, and unclear when giving instructions for assignments. I have never had a professor that was so passive aggressive and rude when all I was doing was asking for clear directions. Made me go through so much trouble just to tell me I didn't do the assignment right when she, DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO CLEARLY. GIVE. INSTRUCTIONS!

The teacher often seemed unprepared and disinterested. Lessons lacked structure, and we rarely explored the core concepts like power, sovereignty, or development in meaningful depth. Assessment feedback was vague and inconsistent, making it difficult to improve or understand where we stood.

This was an easy class that I took for gen ed. But I would not recommend her because she requires us to send her emails of our assignments rather than submit it under the post. Because of that, I received a 0 on my research because she said she couldn't open my pdf and I double checked it. Then it was too late to change my grade so I got a B.

The work from this professor was super easy for the most part. The research project is the longest assignment, but it's easy, just time-consuming. You basically just email her all your work. She does have a slight attitude in emails, but I think it's just because she uses few words. Otherwise, pretty solid professor.
