nice teacher...a bit unorganized but it was her first semester at FC and she got tossed into one of the bungalows to teach.

I thought she was a terrible teacher. She is very knowledgable on the subject she is teaching but not a good teacher...I thought going to her class was completely pointless because she doesn't even test on the stuff she lectures on. The whole class is only out of 100 points so any point you miss is a percent taken off...her clarity was lousy

It's true her class is an easy A, but if you want to learn something about history, than spare your sanity and take someone better! She jumped around from random topics, and was very unorganized when it came to assigning the presentations and delivering class lectures.

I took Mande for 112 Honors, and while she's a very nice person, I didn't care much for her class. Unorganized, lost our grade book, and felt pointless attending lectures. That pretty much sums up her class. Easy tests, 1 presentation, 1 paper, 1 midterm. Def an easy A class, but lacked the fire/structure that is expected from a Prof. Your choice.

Online 113 is a writing-intensive course, so be prepared to be writing A-LOT! I would only suggest taking this class, if you like writing and/or do not mind writing so many papers. Class is out of 100 points only, so EVERY point counts. DO NOT buy the textbook, all of your papers references have to be from outside sources. So save your money!

If you're taking her online course, you have the option of finishing the class early. 5 discussion, 4 quizzes, and two small writing assignments. Did not get a single piece of feedback.
