excellent in all ways

Really enthusiastic about the class. Her tests are a little hard even when she goes over what will be on them. Most of the class was averaging C's or D's. If you study hard or this stuff comes easy to you, you can receive an A or B. Good luck.

Hard tests, trick questions.

She is truly awesome and cares about her students. I recommend taking more thank one class with her. Way to go Anni!

This instructor is from Danmark. She is very nice but sometimes hard to understand. She loves to talk like a highschooler. Overall her class tests are hard, since she likes to use both the book, her own course reader and the notes(provided).

Although the tests are somewhat challenging, overall the class is very informative and interesting. She is very good at relating the material to experiences that the students are likely to relate to.

This teaher is one to experience. She is from Europe and brings in a worldly view to every issue. She is someone that will invoke great classroom disussion, and will make you think. The tests are somewhat hard, but she does offer a paper that is an easy A, plus some extra credit. Mostly B's.

Great teacher. very kind. hard tests but if you're there all the time, you're good.

Really great! Made the class interesting and she kept me awake(which is a hard thing to do)! Tests are a bit challenging but the information is all there in the class.

She's such a cute lady, her accent too. Her personality makes you excited about the class. She is very helpful and gives test reviews during her office hours. She's a great professor!

Best teacher ever! If you go to class,(which isn't hard b/c she makes it so fun) and GO TO TEST REVIEW before class on test day, guaranteed A or B on the test. Wish I could take her for a third time. Her accent is awesome and she really cares about the student. if you don't get an easy B in the class something is wrong with you. She kicks ass!

What a joy! I've taken a number of classes with this prof. and would highly reccommend all of them. She's Danish and her discussions of Denmark's sociological and governmental phenomena were so enthrawling that I actually visited the country last summer.

awww i loved this lady she was a wonderful teacher...cares about her students...cute denmark accent...very fair grader too, not a hard class as long as you go and do the work....don't remember there being a lot of work either

Anni Is the best! She was my favorite teacher at ASU! Take her class, you won't be disappointed.

She's so cute and sweet but can be demanding. Overall fair though.

awesome!!

Great professor, has an accent but she's so enthusiastic about what she teaches, you can't help but be happy to learn. I took her SOC 101 class, and it was fun and easy. She's highly educated and when we have class discussions (almost every class), she's very knowledgable in all fields. Highly recommended!

She is the best professor. Test answers come straight from her notes and she gives you exact questions from the exams a week before you take it. Go to class! Lots of people thought they could pass the class by reading the book but that's not the case she takes everything from her lecture notes and movies. An easy A if you show up!

She's adorable, taking her class helped me decide on changing my major to sociology. She's very interesting, educated and fun.

I freekin loved her. She was my favorite teacher after the first week!!!

I agree with everyone else: Anni is awesome. Nice lady, cares about her students, is enthusiastic about the material, talks about drinking and smoking doobies all the time. I took her for 466 and not gonna lie, it wasn't the easiest class. Go to every class and make sure you know the overheads for tests. Don't buy the book- we never used it

took her Sociology of Adolescence class, and loved it. I went to class every day and enjoyed the lectures and material. It was interesting and she knew her stuff but was also just so funny in her class discussions.

AMAZING! I attended every lecture, couldn't miss it because of how interesting it was! Make sure to not miss out on the study guides! The exams will be the exact same thing!

is tough, but fair. She makes the lectures interesting & actually has a sense of humor. Cares about you s a person & student when you see her during office hrs. Will gladly re-explain topics you don't understand in class.

She is a very kind and caring professor. Her tests are a bit tricky, but the amount of extra credit she gives makes up for it. Extra credit is in the form of in-class quizzes testing you on material discussed just a few minutes before. She truly cares about her students and understands if you have issues with time or materials. Excellent Professor!

Anni is an awsome teacher. She makes her lectures fun and interesting (like everyone else said, she talks about doobies a lot). Her tests can be hard at times but she gives you a oral study guide in which she reads off the test. She is very helpful, smart, and kind.

interesting topics that she picks. she's really nice but kinda hard to understand cause she's from another country. dont be afraid to ask questions or anything.

she is the best teacher that I have had at ASU. Totally inspired me. If you go to class the test wont be too hard.

Anni is a wonderful professor! I've taken her a few times. This class was very difficult. It was a lot to remember, but Anni is always there to help when needed. She doesn't require a book for this class, theres not much reading involved. Make SURE you show up for class to take ALL the quizes and use flash cards for the tests, then you'll do fine.

good class

I took three classes from Anni because she is one of the best prof.s at ASU! Makes class discussions intersting and entertaining! She is hilarious and wants her students to questing society. I will miss her!

for soc of adolescence it was an interesting topic & learned a lot towards my psychology major. i recommend tho NOT BUYING ANY BOOKS for this class never used em. all the slides & notes for tests & hw R in class or online. i wasnt there half the time & still gotta 'B'. oh & sit close so u can understand her european accent lol nice lady tho

Damgaard is awesome! Know the study guides inside and out, go to her office for study sessions before the test and you can get a 100 percent on every test! The class is interesting and great class discussions.

This professor is amazing. She is funny and very entertaining. I had no interest in this topic but it turned out to be my favorite class. Go to her office hours! She is very helpful

She is so fun! I think she has a bright, enjoyable personality. I was worried at first because of her very thick accent, but I got past it. She truly enjoys what she's doing, which makes me want to learn the information as well. I'm doing well on the exams so far after making lots of flash cards. She likes to engage the class in discussions.

She is nice and fun. She gives out 3 tests which are kinda easy but tricky, and 3 papers. You can't get any extra points so do the extra credit. We also watch lots of movies and she always asks everyone for their opinion - kinda annoying. overall this class is easy if you show up and do good on the tests and you'll learn alot of interesting facts.

I had Anni for soc 312 (Sociology of Adolescence) and Soc 101 (Introductory Sociology) and I just adore her! She's easy to talk to and her review sessions are taken straight from the exam. She's the bees knees.

The class is good to take if you need credit-hours and can't handle classwork. It could be summarized as "European Socialist Worldview" instead of sociology. It was boring, and Extra credit is plentiful and the tests are easy. Word of advice: don't bother buying the textbook if you intend on attending the lectures. It'd be a waste of money.

She's very friendly and interesting to listen to in class. The lectures aren't boring although they could be considering the material. The in class discussions are interesting. Just go over the notes before class and you'll be fine on the quizzes.

Anni was a wonderful teacher. She highly encouraged class discussion and would have great review sessions before tests. You dont really need the books, so save yourself some money at the bookstore! I'm taking SOC 483 with her next semester and hope it was as good as this!

Daamgard is highly educated in several fields (Psychology, Sociology, and Medicine) and is very enthusiastic about what she teaches. Warm, fun, and tells great, illustrative stories. A few tests and short papers on a couple movies. Most test questions are from lecture. Fascinating class (had her for soc of adolescence) and I recommend her fully!

Personally, best professor at ASU to date! Though challenging with her lectures, quizzes/test are a breeze if you at least go to class & review some notes. She's sincerely passionate about what she teaches & will be one of those classes you remember for years to come!

GREATTTTT PROFESSOR! She's amazing and helpful! Her accent and grooviness and doobies.

Easiest class ever. I went for the first 5 weeks and never showed up again. The quizzes were still easy. Never opened the book either. Just learn what the different theories are on the broadest level.

I took the online class. There is a lot of reading to do, and theres a quiz every week. The quizes are the majority of your grade, and are pretty detailed questions. You have to read the chapters (which are each about 30 pages long) in order to get a good grade on the quiz.

I was not completely satisfied with this professor. Damgaard considered "outlines" to be lectures & the quizzes were kind of difficult. I received a B in FAS 431 so her class was maintainable but in my opinion, there just wasn't enough interesting material. The class was based on 1 dry textbook & 1 discussion board post.

She is the best professor ever! Most free spirited lady and very passionate!!! You will love her class and her!!!!

I took this class in Fall 2008 as a night class. Usually the first half of class was lecture, and the second half was a movie. There's a lot of reading involved. She would tell you exactly what you needed to know for the exams-read directly off of the exam-the class before the exam. Pretty easy class.

She's a pretty good teacher. She knows the material very well and is fairly good at making it interesting. Some of the questions on the quizzes were worded in a way that made the answer unclear, but other than that, the class was easy. She also offers a ton of extra credit and is definitely willing to help you out if you ask for it.

WARNING: Do NOT take her class if you are conservative! Her quizzes often reflect her opinion and she is very liberal! I enjoyed her class, she really knew her stuff. She tries to get people to participate through group discussions but it's usually the same people every time. The videos are interesting, by the end of the course you should have an a

Sociology of Adolecence with Damgaard is hands down one of the best classes I took at ASU. The environment was equal, and she really did a great job with the material. The class was three hours long, but I WANTED to go and stay the whole time. Take her, even if you aren't a Soc major/minor. Shes amazing and so intelligent!

Very interesting class. Quizes are way too hard. If you think you got 100 percent on a quiz you probably got 50 percent. Quizes are based on lectures, not lecture notes. So pretty much whatever you remembered or wrote down anything that she said. Socialist and very opionated. Likes to put down America in comparison to Scandenavia.

I don't understand why so many students are surprised that they have to READ THE BOOK. Isn't that generally an expectation? Great teacher, class is easy if you read the material and put effort into the quizzes.

Such an awesome class! I took it online! quiz every week thats it!!! Super easy bc she gives you a study guide! She even helped me get into an Honors society! AKD I love this woman and class and am taking again!

Was truly engaging in the discussion. No doubts about her mastery of the subject. Made me much more interested in the material with her enthusiasm. A+ doobie-talk

people complain way too much about having to actually crack open their books and read. what is the point in goign to college if you aren't going to read the material?!?!? people seem to be getting lazier and lazier with high expectations every year. THIS IS NOT HIGH SCHOOL, BUCK UP

This class is so interesting. She has a think accent, but she posts slides on the screen so it is easy to take notes. One lecture day a week, and the other is a movie day. Only grades are weekly quizzes online. Sometimes the quizzes can be tricky, but the class is overall fairly easy, and extremely interesting.

I love Anni, and Im a LAZY STUDENT, But I got an A! You will have to read a little bit but she gives you a study guide so you will at least know what to read. No tests, No papers just a little quiz over the weeks reading and they are EASY! easy A and she is really smart!

Grade is based off 15, 15-question on-line quizzes that she releases on thursdays, attendance is not mandatory but she goes over some of the stuff on the quiz on thursdays. She is energetic, loves her subject and is very clear and engaging, despite her accent. Got a 104% and you can too if you go to class, refer to the book and take decent notes.

She has a pretty heavy accent but she is a nice lady and the class is really easy. Its just 1 quiz a week, no final and whatever you do do not buy the book you wont need it

I don't understand people,Damgaard is one of my favorite professors.She is so sweet and you can tell she's passionate about the subject.1 quiz a week which was NOT hard and going to her office hours,she will gladly help you get an A.Just print out the lecture notes and GO to lecture;not that hard.

Damgaard is a very passionate teacher. SOC483 is her favorite class to teach and to which I don't doubt -- interesting topics. Go to class, she's worth it. Only quizzes, no hw assignments and all exams are easy if you read all handouts and attend class. She has made me want to take all of her classes. Her accent is hilarious, very intelligent aswel

She is an amazing teacher. She has a light accent. her quizes are extremely easy, she gave us 96 hours to do them. She does go on tangents, but they are extremely relvent to the topic at hand. the most important thing to remember is karl marks model. the only time i got anything wrong on my quizes is when i came into class late.she stresses theory.

She is a great teacher and loves the subject. Grade is made up of quizzes taken online which are pretty easy as long as you attend lecture. Would definitely take this course again!

Awesome professor!! So funny and interesting. Really loves her students and she is so smart. I look forward to this class every week.

The lectures may seem dull at time but show up to understand the quiz topics. Her quizzes are very easy if you pay attention and take good notes when she gives out "hints" at the end of her classes.

She is a complete socialist and finds ways to make conservative capitalists look evil, but the class is very easy and she is "groovy" (you will understand if you take the class). Things to know: Dont buy any of the books cus if you go to every class, you will never need them and she watches movies alot! Easy class and teacher.

She is a communist. Kind of annoying to listen to her hate on America, but class is all online quizzes once a week. And you watch movies

Pretty easy class if you go to class you should be able to get an a or a b. She plays a lot of movies which arent to bad. Its hard to understand her accent at first but after a little bit it isnt to bad. You dont need the book if you go to class but if you dont want to go to class just read the chapter. Only grade is 15 online quizzes.

I took the class online, and the grade was based on 15 lecture quizzes. The book is obviously mandatory. The quizzes were pretty easy, if one actually engages in the reading. With that being said the quizzes did and did not really follow along with the correlating chapters.

The class i was in was a M/W format. Mon. was the lecture and Wed. was a movie. There was no reason to go on Mon. and most often I didn't, she lectured right off the powerpoints and is not the best speaker. It is worth your while to go on Wed. though because the quiz is mostly on the movies and at the end she hints about the quiz.

Amazing teacher, would definitely have again. No communication problem at all, at least give her a chance. Brilliant teacher.

15 online quizes with 15 multiple choices questions. First day of lecture in the week is notes, second day is a video and at the end she gives sample questions- WRITE THEM DOWN! The questions she gives are always on the quiz. Super easy! Extra credit quiz at the end to gain back the few points you loose for weird wording on other quizzes. GROOVY!

Although she is a fun teacher that has an awesome accent sometimes she starts getting off task. She doesn't explain things that well and sometimes the quiz questions can be really confusing. The whole class is based on 15 quizzes so if you screw up a few times your grade drops. The second day of lecture you always watch a movie, sometimes good.

Shes one of the best professors @ ASU! Shes extremely smart funny & her lectures are interesting. I learned so much in her class, its changed my life. I took SOC483 as a first year & got an A. The exams were hard but if u study theres no way u cant get an A on the tests. Ppl who say shes a bad professor probably didnt study & did bad in the class.

Super fun teacher that has an awesome accent sometimes. She is the THEORY QUEEN so know the theories she gives and you will do fine! The quiz questions can be really confusing! The class is based on 15 online quizzes. No final. The first day of lecture is a lecture and the second day you always watch a movie. GREAT PROFESSOR. TAKE HER CLASS! :)

She's a sweet lady and very straightforward about the curriculum and what will be on the quizzes. It definitely pays to attend lectures even if they are not mandatory because in them she says nearly everything that you will be quizzed on.

Class starts off super easy but picks up quickly so don't skip class! If you fall behind, office hours definitely helps! Plus Damgaard is interesting, intelligent, and fun to talk to. She will try to get to know you as a person, which can lead to some great discussions. I learned as much, if not more from those as I did from class itself.

Very easy class as long as you understand the main theories. One day is a lecture going over a certain topic and how each theory pertains to it, the other is a video that reinforces the lesson. Attendance not mandatory, but will help. No textbook. Extra credit offered. Would recommend if you need an easy class for GPA boosting or as a requirement.

LOVE HER!!! There are 15 quizzes total, one per week. They are based partly on her lectures and partly on the videos related to the lectures. She gives you two chances to earn 5 points extra credit. The lectures are kind of boring at times, but she's so cute and funny so it's okay. She talks about doobies daily. I loved her!!

Says doobies and groovy more than any other words. All lectures are posted online and the 15 quizzes are online. Work in a study group to take the quizzes. Take notes whenever she talks about the theories and when she goes over quiz questions after the movie. Extra credit offered The class is boring but if you can endure it, it is an easy A class.

The instructor is clear about expectations for class. Book is extremely boring; chapters are approx. 30pgs per chapter. Content in chapters covers topics from multiple angles resulting in many contradictions against purported evidence. Tests are near impossible to get 100% on. Take this class only if absolutely needed.

Anni is my favorite professor of all time! She is clear and friendly. Her class is insightful and intriguing. She is the reason I took on Sociology as a second major. We've stayed good friends following her class. A class which, btw, teaches you more about yourself then you might expect. Take a class with this professor.

One of the best professors at ASU

My wife, my brother, and I all had classes with Professor Damgaard and to this day a lot of her lessons still stick with us. She taught me one of the most important lessons in studying sociology: "Who benefits?" She was so great for SOC101 that we all took multiple classes with her.
