I took her online course, she provides a million power point slides for every chapter that are difficult to follow and understand. She is a tough grader and does not provide any positive or constructive feedback. I would even say a bit rude and sarcastic. If you don't have to take her, keep away. The course text is very interesting.

She's very funny, has an accent but she's understandable. The class involves 7 papers throughout the semester only 2 pages long about an article that you have to read. It's fairly easy and articles can be interesting. Then there are 3 exams and optional final. It drops your lowest test grade. She's cool overall. It's a fun class
