Very nice and extremely organized. Teaches like a pro!
She's awesome, she hooks you up with powerpoint notes so you actually have everything you need.
Dr. Whisenhunt is knowledgable, helpful, and makes classes enjoyable. I would recommend her any day, but don't expect it to be easy!
Dr. Whisenhunt is a **** hottie. Oh yeah, she's a good teacher, too.
She puts powerpoint pres. on blackboard like 2 minutes before class, not helpful. All she does is go through the slides during class. Tests have basically nothing to do with what she teaches in class. Take someone else!!
She is definately NOT hot first of all. Everyday, I have to fight to stay awake in class. There is really no point in going because all she does is read powerpoint notes to you in lecture. Basically, she sucks.
No not hot at all. Pretty fun teacher, though she doesn occasionally get boring. Dont really need to go to class all that often.
She is a good teacher. She makes class fun and isnt afraid to laugh all during class. She's young and fun!
Mrs. Whisenhunt is a very cool teacher. She laughs all the time in class which is fun. Class is easy but tests are sometimes hard. She offers extra credit which is cool.
She is a teacher that incorpates everyday things into her teachings. She gives examples that makes PSY easy to understand. It was a class that was fun to got to, but it's also a class that you can't slack off in.
good teacher. knows what she's doing. Makes class fun.
Most boring teacher EVER! I hated this class, she's not helpful! The powerpoints are available online, so lecture is pointless. If you do take her, bring a good novel to read!!!
She is not flexible with your schedule at all!!!!!! I had to be out of town and she made me take the very first test of the semester on dead day. I was willing to come in the week before or the week after.
Her tests are pretty hard but I love her. Shes funny and keeps things going...i've seen better though
Tests are rough, she is a nice person though. Class is super boring, I never skipped class until i took this one-blah!
Dr. WhisenChump is awesome!!! The best teacher I ever had. If you like Sandy the Squirrel (Spongebob's friend), you'll love her!
she means well but has a horrible schedule in respect to teaching. she trys to fit 10 pounds of**** in a five pound bag every class period. then right before a test she tells you to read to catch up. even though i will end up with a B i wouldnt recommend her.
This class was not easy by any means. You have to read AND go to class. Dr. Whisenhunt makes it an interesting class period though and she's closer to our age so she can relate better. Do the online quizzes even though they aren't mandatory, they are on the tests. And read, it helps!
NIGHTMARE !!!!
I loved Dr. Whisenhunt! Even though class consists only of lectures, her stories are always interesting, as is the material. Tests are hard, and your grade consists only of 4 tests and a big paper, but in the end most people pulled through with at least a C, and A's are definitely possible.
First of all, there is a lot of lecture and a lot of studying. The tests are not easy at all, but they are passable if you study. She is closer to our age, which helps I think, and she has a sense of humor. Oh yeah, did I mention she is totally hot!
This class is very difficult, especially if psychology is not a strong subject. her tests are hard, but there isnt much work besides studying and tests. Do not recommend.
Easy class if you take the online quizes (they're the same as the exams) Sometimes the class lectures don't cover the stuff on the exam, so some reading is required. Whisenhunt gives some demonstrations that make the lectures interesting. Gives extra credit for perfect attendance, extra research credit,etc. don't take it @ 8am-you'll fall asleep!
Grade consists of only 4 tests and a paper, but don't let the paper scare you-it is broken up into short sections. Whisenhunt is energetic & has the best stories! You have to go to class and read, but you won't want to skip class once you get hooked! Take this class with her if you can. It was my favorite, plus I got all A's without TOO much work!
memorize the quizzes and you'll be fine
Whisenhunt in my opinion was not a very professional when it came to her class. the entire semester she had been posting my grade wrong, when i thought i had a B i had been getting a D. All she did was give me an apology. Her class is also very uninteresting, and she speaks very monotone. Do Not Recommend
Class was very boring. Had to try my hardest to stay awake. Some of her test questions are taken from the online quizes but the other ones are from the reading that she did not cover in class. I suggest to take someone else if at all possible!!!!!
The things in her powerpoints and the text in the book had little relation to her test alot of it came form the online quizzes which made studing a little easier.
This class was the worst! Your grade was based on tests only and one paper. On the paper I turned it in to two teaches on gave me a B, but she gave me a D and wrote more on my paper than I did. It was like I should have read her mind. She is nice, but she it too new and trying to prove a point.
whisenhunt, has awesome stories,and uses them so one can relate to the point she is making.if your looking for a free ride this class is not for you,if your serious, then you can't find a better teacher then whisenhunt.she may be a hottie,but her wisdom is whats hot!!!!!as I see it , the one's that leave a bad comments are the one's not serious.
whisenhunt,has an awesome teaching style,she use's humor,stories,and her wisdom to help you learn. if your serious to learn psy, then whisenhunt is one of the best, but, if your looking for a easy grade then you should look elsewhere. she is young so she can relate to us,she is the top of the line as teachers go!!she is awesome!!!!!
I dont recommend this teacher. She is pretty nice. I don't mind going to her class. Her tests are really hard. I have a C in her class and I am an A&B student. There are online quizzes where 50% of test Q's come from but the rest is worded way different and are hard. She is an ok teacher!
Abnormal psych...Brooke is a great and intersting teacher. Her tests can be hard. You MUST plan on reading the chapters and not missing class and you'll be fine. She is also always available to help you study before a test if you just ask. Great stories as well!! Definitely take her class!
Brooke is an amazing teacher! Do the online quizzes and you WILL make at least a B. She's fun and young and makes the class laugh. Attendance is not mandontory, but the lectures are fun.
Her test are difficult, but if you study the study guide you will do fine. Her powerpoint are very good notes, but you need to read the book to completely understand. Online quizzes( not required) help you prepare for exams. Half of her exams questions come from online quizzes. Fun instructor, keeps it interesting
The tests are hard. To me it seemed that the more I studied the worse I did. The online quizzes help. Attendence is not manditory but she sends a radom attendence sheet around sometimes (she did 2 times in my class). I once went to her office for a meeting w/ her and all she did was give me the answer sheet to go over my test while she did email :(
She has great past clinical experience which helps you really understand the subject matter. She is fun and teaches class very well. If you just go to class and listen to lectures (which aren't bad at all) then you will do okay. There were people in class who didn't ever come and they complained ALL the time, their fault though.
CONTROL FREAK!! not cool.
dont sit in front - attendance is taken maybee 5 times per semester - study fo tests
She was very unorganized and it took her forever to get things done.
Black and white thinker, judgmental, narrow minded, self-centered, to be avoided. Lousy teacher.
Horrible teacher! Very un-willing to help. YOU MUST Read the book to understand anything out of her class. Grade is based on 4 tests and a paper, horrible at reviewing for tests. Would NOT reccomend to anyone!
The subject matter being difficult, the exams of course are to an extent. Study the book, don't be lazy. As for Dr. Whisenhunt personally, her smile, her eyes, her hair, the sweetness, the grace, the glow that is her every move in class. The feeling in ones chest as she talks, talks of anything! People she is a doll, a spring flower, true love?
Very bad teacher...she seems really nice, but she is unwilling to help. The tests are over the book...her lectures are interesting but not on the test.
She is a fun teacher. You DO have to read the book but come on people you are in college get use to it. She is fun and if you ask for help you got it. She has a lot of fun stories too :D
Dr. Whisenhunt is great! She really tries to get the class involved in discussions and relates discussions to the real world of psychology. Take good notes from the PPT's and read the chapters....what a concept...She tries to relate the tests to theories you learn in class, which really is helpful in understanding the illnesses discussed. Very help
Dr. Whisenhunt was an amazing teacher. She knows what she is talking about and is very good at getting her point across. She makes things very easy to understand. Her tests are half questions she makes up and half from online quizzes. She uses questions from them word for word. Plus, she has a great personality which is always nice.
This class is extremely boring. If you read the book and print out her powerpoints you could probably get away with not going to class. She just reads from her powerpoints anyway. DO TAKE THE ONLINE QUIZZES!! half of the exams are from these. They really help. She takes attendance when hardly anyone shows up so go when you really think its a waste.
She is very unwilling to help. I tried to contact her several times to make an appointment for help on studying and she ignored all of my emails. The tests are extremely hard. I don't recommend this class.
wouldnt reccomend to anyone! tests are awful! she doesn't work with responding to anyone in a timely manner at all! it seemed like the more i studied for a test, the worse i did. her power points have nothing to do w the test, it's all textbook material. attendence is useless, basically! don't take if you don't have to!
She is a very good teacher. Not boring to listen to at all. The final is VERY important...it is worth 200pts out of a total of 550pts. It is possible to get an A just do all the extra credit and online quizzes (which make up 50% of each test)
This class is probably the most pointless class ever. You don't need to show up at all because attendance isn't mandatory and she teaches straight from the text book. She even has the powerpoints up that are made by the author of the text book. find a teacher where you'll actually learn something.
Attendance isn't mandatory, but it definetely helps to go because she does a great job of explaining the material. Tests can be hard, but she takes half of the questions from online quizzes. She also allows you to get a total of 15 points extra credit. I would recommend this teacher.
Very HARD class. She started the class out by telling everyone the grade average is usually is 65%...uh ok. She is really nice though and knows what she is talking about. Tries to make discussions. All tests are 50/50...so half are her questions, and other half from online quizzes.
Pretty good professor. Her tests are pretty easy out of 50 questions 25 are from online quizzes so I suggest you take them!! She likes to use examples so make sure you actually understand the material! I would definitely suggest her!
Very good professor. She teaches well, holds interest during lectures, and is organized in her speaking. Her tests are a good balance: it's not hard to get an A, but you do actually learn.
She is an excellent professor. She's really funny and wants you to learn the information. A lot of students didn't do as well as they'd like in my class because their attendance was pretty poor and they never opened their text book. What do you expect? We are in college.
Without a doubt the worst class ever. Four tests and a paper. People beware, at first glance she seems nice and willing to help. Nope, she is unwilling to help understand material and don't even bother to try to e-mail her. Complete waste of time and money.
She offered plenty of extra credit opportunities and she gives you a site with online quizzes for each chapter and every test has almost exactly the same questions.
VERY interesting class. the tests aren't too hard if you study. the first test is the hardest. I made the mistake of not studying as hard for the first, which is why I received a B in the class. Be sure to do the book website quizzes. Thats where many of her questions come from!
Very good teacher. She doesn't hold your hand through the class (nor should she) but she's very nice & helpful if you just ask.
Dr.Whisenhunt is a good lecturer. She makes it fun and works the the tedious stuff in a humorous manor. She assigned alot of reading but she then lectured about everything in the reading next class so there was no use in reading. WORD OF CAUTION: She did say the class would change alot starting next semester. So beware of more work.
This class was very hard. None of her test were from her powerpoints and there is no study guide. Online quizzes were great but only helped you on 50% of the test questions. She is really funny and made class fun and interesting tests just weren't easy to study for.
Really great professor. Tests require some studying, but the online quizzes are really helpful. She made class very interesting.
I didn't actually have her class, but she filled in for my teacher a few times. I found myself constantly laughing when she was our teacher.
This class was horrible! I am a graduate student and I spent more of my time on work for this class than my graduate classes. There are up to 5 different due dates and times you have to keep track of in any given week, so if you are not checking blackboard daily you are sure to miss something. The material itself is not hard, just the class setup.
I mean, she seems like a nice person. But that's just it. There was absolutely NO Teacher- Student relationship whatsoever. I feel like she doesn't even know my first name and that I am merely a number to her and with such a challenging class, that isn't good. Also the incorporation of the e-book and online assignments with the class was terrible.
I had a very hard time with the blended class. She sent you home with several different deadlines and so much homework. The online portion of the class wa very difficult. Most of the questions were hard to understand due to the wording, which makes it very hard to study for. She did have great communication and understanding with me.
She is a very nice lady who makes class extremely fun. The blended section of the course was a lot of work and at times overbearing. Had something due almost every single day and the program had some issues that she was willing to work with. Good for someone majoring in PSY but just overwhelming for a gen ed. I'd recommend her but not the course.
Dr. Whisenhunt's class wasn't necessarily the easiest, but it was one of the more interesting ones. She clearly knows her stuff, and is super friendly towards everyone. A definite go-to for psych majors or just anyone else interested in abnormal.
This wasn't as easy of a class as expected. You have to really study for the tests. She lectures well and made class interesting. You'll need the book for the mypsychlab quizes. She also uses a clicker in class, which was new for me, but I found it to be an effective teaching method. I am glad I took her class.
She definitely knows her stuff and she makes class very interesting. The tests are a bit difficult, but if you do the quizzes and read the textbook you will be fine. I would recommend Dr. Whisenhunt
There was hardly any coursework, other than what's required for GEP. She was very easy-going and had good group discussions. Some of the stuff we talked about in class got monotonous, but other than that, she's super sweet and friendly and I would recommend her.
Really good professor! Very passionate about the material! Lectures are really interesting and keeps class engaged in what she is saying!
Dr. Whisenhunt is a wonderful professor. She is very funny, using examples from her own clinical work, and bending over backward to help you. If you understand the book, you WILL do well. Going to class will most likely help you get a letter grade higher because you narrow down what to study. Take her if you can!
She is really helpful. Pretty easy class and she is super hot
BROOKE WHISENHUNT IS A NICE LADY!
In a class of over 300 she has made me feel as though she cares of me and my grade individually, she has met with me on her own time outside of office hours and is super helpful. Great teacher
She is a great professor. She loves teaching and want you to know the material.
Dr. Whisenhunt was my favorite teacher this year. She is really enthusiastic about psychology and seems to love teaching the class. She was always willing to answer your questions even though she had so many students. I loved this class; it really stimulated my interest. You do have to study and read the material, but if you do you'll be fine.
This was my first big lecture hall class. Half of it is online, so you are responsible for your own learning. The lectures are helpful, but don't rely on them alone to learn the material. If you're willing to work, this class should be easy. If not, you're going to have a more difficult time.
I enjoyed the topics of Abnormal Psychology, so I did not mind the reading, however if it is not something you are particularly interested in, I do not think that it would be a good choice to take this course online. You read a chapter a week and have to do a lot of coursework associated with it.
I love Dr. Whisenhunt. If i could take her for every class I would. There is a lot of reading, but if you enjoy abnormal psychology you wont mind. Study the chapter guides. I had a couple times where i needed extensions and she genuinely extended assignments. This is why I love professors like her, truly understanding and caring.
You complete one chapter per week, which encompasses: 50 homework questions, 5 video quiz questions, and 25 exam questions. The answers to all of these questions are on Quizlet. I got essentially a 100% on these HW questions (large portion of grade). Final exam was cumulative & proctored. I failed the final; still got A in the class.
She's a great professor who is very knowledgeable on the subject. The assignments are pretty easy and the tests definitely require a good bit of studying on your part if you want to do well.
Super cool teacher. Her and her assistant are really chill and very understanding and helpful. I had a family trauma, and they were super kind and cool about it and really tried hard to help me do what i need done, not only in that class but my other classes as well.
She's really sweet. To do well in this class, you'll need to do the readings and take notes before the lecture. She offers extra credit so take advantage. She is really sweet and knows what she's talking about. Go to class for participation points (5 points per class). This isn't a hard class if you put in the work. The tests are general.
Loved her class! She's made me consider becoming a psychologist. Go to class, she gives great lectures to help understand complicated material. Recommend reading all chapters assigned, taking detailed notes, studying hard. Tests cover a lot of material, but are very easy if you complete online homework and take quality notes from book/lecture.
Despite the weekly MyPsychLab assignments, there is no homework. The MyPsychLab assignments are extremely easy but very time-consuming. The tests were hard for me. The lectures were fun and easy to follow though! I really enjoyed having Professor Whisenhunt!
She makes lecture interesting and always keeps us engaged through creative ways.
Tough! Took this class online. SO MUCH WORK!! The final is comprehensive and by her last email nearly everyone did a poor job on it. That should tell her something! I wouldn't recommend taking her online classes. Don't know about seated classes.
I loved her! Her class was hard no doubt. I learned early on that reading the textbook and taking detailed notes helped alot. Her lectures are amazing and she keeps you engaged. She is very smart and knows what she is talking about. I recommend taking her class, the workload is manageable but just pay attention and study and you will be fine.
Great teacher that gives you lots of resources to make the grade- loved her class!
I love Dr. Whisenhunt! She is funny and definitely knows what she is talking about. You do have to do a lot of reading to actually do good on the tests but it is very possible to get an A. Make sure you're putting in an effort. Also was a blended class so we only met on Tuesdays!
This class is amazing. I took the blended version of this class, so I had to learn a lot of the material outside of class. She creates the lessons based off what students struggle on from the online assignments. If you come to class, you will get participation points! Overall, if you do the MyPsych quizzes and bonus, then you will pass with an A!!
Even though the class and tests are somewhat difficult she does a great job with lectures and is so much fun. There is one weekly assignment that is easy to do. Can receive up to 5% worth of extra credit. As long as you study the notes or book you will be fine.
Brooke Whisenhunt is one of my favorite professors! She makes lectures very interesting and is hilarious. The tests are the same across the department regardless of the teacher, but she prepares you for the tests. I highly recommend her, she was a blast to learn from.
Dr. Whisenhunt does such a great job at making psychology interesting. Usually big lecture classes are so difficult to follow along in, but she is great at appealing to all the different learning types. You have to study for tests, but it's not a class you'll be up all night studying for. Just pay attention in class. I never even read the book
Wisenhunt was a great professor! her lectures were easy to listen to. clicker questions were easy padding for grade as well as other aspects of the class. read the book and you'll do fine on the tests!
Psychology isn't very easy in general, but she did an awesome job at giving us information, we just had to put in a little work. clicker points every class, she's really funny and so nice
Whisenhunt is an excellent teacher. She makes psychology easy to understand and truly does everything she can to help her students succeed. Its really important to read the chapters though, if you don't do the work outside of class you probably wont pass, but that is just how the class is structured, and so it should be.
I absolutely love Dr. Whisenhunt! She is an amazing professor! My current section is a blended course. Attendance is mandatory to pass and this class requires a lot of studying/note-taking, but you usually only meet once a week on Tuesdays. It can be difficult or those who are not Psych majors, but she makes it very interesting for everyone!
My favorite professor I've ever had. Brooke is so funny and charismatic and you can tell she really cares about what she's teaching. Her lectures are interesting and her homework is useful and not just busy work. Each week you have a chapter review online from the textbook but they are very easy and really good studying materials.
Loved this class!! By far one of the best teachers I've had. The test are difficult but if you keep up on the readings you'll do fine
I LOVE DR. WHISENHUNT!! She is so caring and sweet, very mom-like. She makes her lectures interesting and is very good and keep you engaged. Blended course, so you meet once a week so it's a good idea to go to class. Reading is also pretty important, because her tests are lengthy and cover stuff from the text. Overall amazing lady love her!!!
FAVORITE PROFESSOR!! She is such a sweet person and gives amazing lectures that help your understanding of the material with real life examples and activities. Tests are very book heavy, you do one chapter a week and a test after 3 chapters. Read the book, study the post tests, and attend lectures and you will be golden.
Dr. Whisenhunt is super sweet and very knowledgeable. I definitely had to work in her class; you can't just slough off and expect to pass. She really cares about her class for sure and wants you to succeed. Definitely not an easy class (unless you're a psych major) but she is definitely a good professor to take! She is also super funny!
Dr. Whisenhunt is my favorite professor. She uses real life examples from her job as a therapist to help students understand psychological concepts. She has an amazing mom personality and cares about her students greatly. Although, you MUST read the book. The tests are really easy if you read the book.
I absolutely LOVE her! She is one of my favorite professors and one the sweetest people I've ever met. I always left her classes feeling like I've learned something. The class overall is very challenging. It's also test heavy and structured around the book, so make sure to read each chapter and study! I ended up changing my major b/c of PSY 121! :)
Dr. Whisenhunt is seriously great! I would highly suggest reading the chapter before class that way you already know whats going on. Also super important to read for tests and use MyPsychLab. Her lectures help a lot and are pretty interesting. The class isn't hard just do your part outside of class to study and know the material and you'll do great
Dr. Whisenhunt is one the sweetest and most caring professors you'll ever have! I highly recommend taking PSY121 with her. The course itself is rather difficult but it really helps to do the chapter readings before the lectures and stay on top of assignments. There are a lot of extra credit opportunities in this class but attendance in mandatory.
Makes lectures fun. She has a passion for psychology and makes it very clear what you need to study and do to receive a good grade. All of the online quizzes are on quizlet but you should actually know the information. With the extra credit and all of the online quizzes you can average a B on the exams and still get an A in the class.
You will most likely be put in a huge class for psychology. My class had 350 students in it, so we had several helpers for the teacher in the room so we could ask questions. Professor Whisenhunt is so nice and funny and easy to pay attention to. She doesn't take attendance, but she puts questions on the board and you have to answer them for points
I really enjoyed her. Always quick to respond to emails and answer questions when needed. Do all of the assignments and glance over the information for the final and you will get an A. The class material is also interesting!
She is the best professor I hav had in college so far. Very funny and engaging. She plans a lot of activities to help us understand the material. Prepares you for the exams very well. Textbook is a essential however, if you do not read it, you will not pass
OH MY GOD! The hardest class I ever took. The work load isnt too bad, just do a chapter a week. But the test were so much harder then they needed to be, and there was nothing except the book to help you over it, and each test was 4 chapters. In class you get points for showing up, but the class is pointless. Literally did nothing to help me
Loved this professor! She's a great teacher and clearly passionate about her lectures. Class isn't that hard as long as you show up to class and study your notes.
Dr. Whisenhunt was great at working with us ULAs and the PSY 121 students throughout this crazy time. We had a lot of technical issues but she always got them figured out and helped us if we had any problems. One time I accidentally slept in and missed our Zoom class, but she was very understanding and helped me get caught up.
This class is primarily online, but it is technically a hybrid class. I attended all of the lectures, and while they were helpful, they are not necessary. Dr. Whisenhunt is very knowledgeable, and I found it super cool that she co-wrote the book that is used for the course. The book is online, and it is interactive, which is a great resource.
I took this class online, so I might have a different perspective, but she was a great teacher. Had everything released, and worked with me when I had a lot due for other classes. She had quite a few quizzes for each chapter, but super easy to do. Easy to follow, with a few discussion questions that took no time at all. She set me up for success.
Great professor. The online layout was very organized & easy to manage. Everything is provided early too so you can go at your own pace. Each chapter had a lecture quiz, that went along with a lecture video, and an exam. Lecture videos provided were very helpful & well taught. Overall the material is very interesting too.
Dr. Whisenhunt was a good professor, I just didn't like how there is little to none 1 on 1 time. Even with the ULA's it was like taking an online class and then coming to in person class to talk about what we already did.
These test beat you up if you dont devote hours to studying.
There is a chapter to read every week that can be time consuming but that is the only assignment. She only holds class once a week. The test are a little harder and require study time but she requires a study session before each test that helps to know what to study for.
There is a chapter to read each week, and questions to follow which can be very time consuming especially if you don't stay up to date with it. Honestly, I didn't get a lot out of the lectures and pretty much all of my learning was from the textbook. Despite that, I still received an A and I don't think the class was too difficult if you study.
This professor wasn't able to teach all of the content of the chapter in one lecture so it felt like I was teaching myself the entire time. I would spend about 3-4 hours doing the chapters and homework before coming to class.
Professor Whisenhunt is the professor that I got to know the least well out of all my professors in the fall of 2022. She is very kind and tries to make the lectures interactive, but the class is all about reading the book. You need to read all of the chapters carefully if you want to get an A. She just guides you along and keeps you on track.
I took this class online, and it was a good amount of work. Each chapter contains Revel assignments, a lecture quiz, and an exam. All the answers are on Quizlet; however, the final exam is cumulative and has to be taken in the Testing Center in the library. As an online professor, she is not good at ALL. She does not answer emails ever which sucks.
Requires an in-person, proctored final, which defeats the purpose of it being an online class. The class was well-organized and policies are clear. The professor is polite but communication is basically nonexistent after the first 2 weeks. Just be careful about timing your work because everything is due at 5pm.
She is super nice and tries to make class fun. The chapters can be long and annoying to read but overall not a ton of work. The tests are the majority of the grade so studying is important.
She is an amazing professor, I would take her again without a doubt. The readings were a lot and the homework, but overall I enjoyed her class. People who say she is a bad professor are because they don't try hard in her class and don't get good grades. As long as you pay attention, study, and do your readings you will do just fine in this class.
As a person, Dr. Whisenhunt was very interesting to listen to and was very knowledgeable. Although, the reading is excessive and very time consuming. There's lots of homework, exams are difficult and stressful because the study sessions rarely have content that encompasses the exams. For a gen ED its ridiculously hard.
Dr. Whisenhunt is a fair teacher that expects you to apply yourself and learn. If you do not keep up with the reading material and lectures, you will fall behind. While there is a lot of material to retain for this class, the structure of it makes sense and there is no busy work. Overall, I enjoyed this class.
Teacher and class was fun. Biggest issue was heavy load of online reading and note-taking, but can do well in class and barely ever read. Check quizlets online.
Pretty easy class. As long as you actually read the revel assignments the tests should be pretty easy. Big classes, over 300 in mine.
She cannot teach even if she tried really hard. In fact she just gives us online work and thinks she did a good thing. Her lectures never actually cover what was in the revel assignment and none of the revel assignments are ever on the test. If you can avoid her please do so, shes not great nor is she available. Its her ta's answering emails.
Professor Whisenhunt's class is engaging, but requires consistent effort. While the reading load is heavy, using resources like the textbook and unstuck AI helped me stay on top of the material. Overall, a challenging yet rewarding course.
Blended class, meets one day a week in a large lecture hall. You'll be teaching yourself the whole class from the online textbook. If you can do that you'll do great but my ADHD ass was struggling hard. Professor herself is sweet and knowledgeable and I enjoyed the lectures, but I hated the structure of the class.
As long as you read the text book the class is a breeze. The tests are fairly easy and the teacher is amazing!!!
Whisenhunt's online course was interesting, with expectations laid out clearly, and offers small, but engaging, lecture videos in conjunction with the Revel work that is provided. However, there is an over abundance of course material, which makes it difficult to pinpoint what to focus on, and the professor is almost impossible to get ahold of.
Lots of reading stay on top of it and you will do fine
LOVE Dr. Whisenhunt!!!! She is so funny and genuinely cares about you as an individual. As far as 424 goes, it is a decent amount of work but it is mostly crammed around exam times. If you plan things out nicely then it is super easy. I learned so much from this experience and wish I had time next year to do it again.
Honestly not a bad professor she dose do extra credit, participation points and makes class interesting however the assignment's are basically online and she ruses through the martial, she also doesn't prepare you for the exams and studying for the exams are frustrating because there seems to always be something on the exam I don't know.
The class was not bad, although it is heavily online with lots of reading and 90% of the material on the tests was from what was online. She didn't cover much of the material when in person, so if you want to do good in the class focus primarily on the Revel work online. She counted attendance towards our grade; she did offer extra credit.
