If you already have decent writing skills, this is a good class to get a GER out of the way with--several assignments, but pretty easy. Otherwise, don't take it. Lectures are pointless and impossible to follow. Wants students to bring books to every single class to read from aloud--again, pointless. Helpful if you're having problems, though.

She is a great writing professor, but she not a kind and caring person. Time is time for her. If you are late for the turning in paper for 3 minutes, then you're gonna lose some points. Be careful with you papers. Even single period, comma, and space could ruin your grade. Otherwise, her extra credit tasks are very helpful.

You need to work hard and don't procrastinate if you want an A in this class. Not a really nice professor. When I asked her to meet outside of office hours for help on an assignment because I had another class during her office hours, she was not willing to meet with me. Really strict about assignments. Total of 8 assignments plus 3 extra credit.

There is one big assignment (like a midterm) out of five but each assignment is explain very clearly on how the professor would like them and you just have to follow them to get 100%. There was also e.c. offered at the end. Easy class with plenty of time but so structured that there's little creativity. The final is 2 easy assign. out of the 5.

Five assignments all semester that were relatively easy with plenty of time to do them. She's clear with what she wants and gives examples for a couple assignments. I liked the topics. Easy extra credit. Graded quickly. Would definitely take another class by her again.

The textbooks were all online, so you don't have to buy one. I liked this class, and I recommend you take Andersen if you can get a seat. She is super nice and helpful. I took the class online. There is no busywork, and the assignment instructions are very clear. It's a good class.

The syllabus has a clear schedule on when things are due, she does not accept late work. Mostly independent busy work. 2-4 readings per week, but they are pretty easy. Only 5 assignments and 2 extra credit opportunities before class began. The assignments were very easy as long as you put in the effort and do not procrastinate.

I loved this class. Professor Andersen's class is really easy to follow with straight forward assignments. It was really nice to do an assignment about my career. And the paper examples were really helpful. I would take another class from her if I needed one. She is great.

Easiest class Ive ever taken. Gives two 50 point extra credit options. Have always earned perfect scores on assignments. Not very time consuming and decently interesting. Great filler class for a busy schedule.

I really can't complain, her class was easyyyyy. Complete the assignments on-time and you'll probably get full points. She definitely grades off completion. The first assignment is like 20 pages so be ready, the rest is smooth sailing.

Professor Andersen's class is structured and fair. The assignments are clearly outlined with examples to follow. I found the topics engaging and the workload manageable. For study prep, I used unstuckstudy alongside the course materials - a helpful combo.

This class was very easy with only 5 assignments. You could realistically finish this class in 1-2 weeks if you really focus on it. If you follow the rubric and what is in the readings, you should ace this class. There are two extra credit opportunities 50 pts each. Each assignment is 200 pts. I recommend this class!
