She is so awesome!! She teaches from powerpoints and doesn't just race through lecture. She takes her time and makes sure you understand. She really enjoys the subject and she makes it easy to enjoy.
Requires some effort for an A. Always gets the point across, but seems biased towards gays and blacks. I learn best from lectures instead of reading, and most of the test comes from her speaking. She does require that you read the book because there are 16 multiple choice terms on each test. She'll drop your lowest test grade as well.
She is the best! She makes her lectures very interesting and easy to remember. I would highly recommend her class to everyone!
Very good teacher. Class is fun. Take notes on lectures and read the assigned chapters and you'll get an A. She's also smokin hot.
she is awesome! i loved her class. you need to pay attention to her lectures because her essay test questions come from her essay. check out the website for the multiple choice test questions. she is my favorite teacher so far!!
I love this class. She is very engaging and gets you passionate. Drops lowest test grade and tests are over book terms and in class discussion, so you need to go to class and get the book. SheGrading is a bit weird - not average of grades, just points that accumulate to 100. I want to take more of her classes - fantastic teacher! And she is hot!
she is awesome best teacher ever makes everything so interesting take her if you want an A:)
Ms. Wiggins is really cool! Her lectures are very interesting and she teaches well. As long as you study and take notes you will make a good grade. I finished with an A. She had different political views as me, but she does not force anything on you. She was a very fun and cute person and I really enjoyed coming to her class!
She is a very organized person. Also, she is fair, and clear about grades. Some people probably don't get A in her class, but it is not her fault. If you go to her class and do homework, you easily get A on her tests. You have to read the text book and take notes to get A.
Ok teacher. easy as long as you keep up. Got a B in the course without doing much.
Dr. Wiggins is the best prof. at GPC. Helpful, understanding, incredibly nice, and incredibly intelligent. Has a mastery over her subject that is unparalleled by almost any other prof. at GPC! Recommended to all!
I would definitely recommend Ms. Wiggins :) Her lectures are very interesting and her tests are always straightforward. She tells you what you need to do to get an "A" and if you do your part, I promise you will not be disappointed.
SHE IS GREAT! AND FUNNY
She was really funny and made the topics interesting. Part of her tests are multiple choice straight from the vocab in the book and the other part are short essays.
Took class online. Dr. Wiggins is great. 4 essays and some quizzes and class discussions. Final is cumulative. Take her you will not be sorry she really gets involved with the online students.
Do not take this teacher. Quizzes, 1 exam, a final exam, and 4 papers. No extra credit and no curving the exams.
This class is an easy A as long as you got to class, read the chapters, and learn the bold words in the text. Miss Wiggins is so nice too.
The Best
I took this class online. The reason that I took this class is because I wanted to know American History. My biggest complaint were the test. In my opinion they are setup to make you fail. The multiple choice answers on the test are setup in a way that at least two of the answers could be correct. Example: red or orangy-red
Dr. Dana simply the BEST TEACHER EVER! I hated history and now I LOVE it! She knows how to make the information interesting and has a passion for history. Loved her and going to her class. There are 4 tests(one is dropped) + the final. There are also about 4-5 written assignments not hard at all. Please please take her. Got an "A" in her class.
Hands down Dr. Wiggins is the best history teacher I have ever had. I wish I could take more of her classes. She makes the lecture fun, and if you've read the book and taken good lecture notes the tests are fine. No major papers either, just essays thru the semester+she drops one test grade. I have no idea where the negative people are coming from?
Dr. Wiggins is AWESOME! Make sure you go to class to get the participation points and to get the information she covers in lecture because IT WILL BE ON YOUR TEST! For the tests, know the lecture notes and bold terms in the book and you get an A! She loves giving extra credit and is very generous and friendly! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

THE BEST AT GPC! Should be teaching all hist classes!
Best teacher hands down!!!! I hated history, now I wish the class was not over. I loved to hear her speak. She makes it fun too. You just got to show up to class, notes will be on the test!!!!
You will write 10 essays on weird topics, no extra credits, no late assignments.
took this class online. Weekly assignments on textbook are easy but there are 4 essays on very stupid topics (that's 40% of final grade).
Wow! This teacher is AWESOME! Don't want to leave out very cute! Anyhow..she is not the type to read from the book which is great...lectures are always fun= I didn't want to leave even when class was over..swear.. Take notes from the lectures because they will definitely be on the tests so attendance is important! You still have to read the book!
Dr. Wiggins is an amazing teacher! She made me love U.S. history amazing and fun! EVERYONE NEEDS TO TAKE HER!
wow she is a amazing teacher i took her for this summer we onl had two essays tests which i thought i failed but i didnt just try and she want fail you at all
Dr. Wiggins is probably the best history teacher I have ever had. Do your homework, the reading assignments, attend class and study... and you will get a good grade. I wish her class was longer. And it doesn't hurt that she is insanely attractive. It's my first semester at gpc and her class alone made it worth my money.
She is the best hist teacher ever! Her class is super easy if you pay attention and do what you're supposed to. Easy A if you attend class and study. Everyone should take her, you will not regret it.
GREAT TEACHER!! Highly recomend her! Test are straight from the book! Read the book and you'll be fine. Attend class everyday, she uses lectures from class for the test. Besides that she is an awesome teacher!
LOVE Ms. Wiggins! I have never enjoyed History, but she made every bit of it fun. Her assignments are straight forward and she's not picky, and her tests are straight forward too. You only need the book for chronology, so borrow one instead of buying it. The rest of the test is from lecture so attend class. She is funny too! Love her stories.
Dr. Wiggins is by far the most interesting professor! She is always engaging in her lectures and makes it fun to learn about history. I use to dislike history until I took her class! I look forward to it! On a side note, she's a fashionista. Love her!
Great teacher!!!! Makes history fun and easy. Most of the test comes from what she goes over in class so show up everyday easy A.
Absolute best professor for this course.
THE BEST HISTORY TEACHER I EVER HAD AND I HATE HISTORY SHE'S SO GOOD THAT I ACTUALLY ENJOYED HER CLASS AND AM SURE ILL REMEMBER THE INFORMATION FOREVER
Prof. Wiggins is awesome! History is not my best subject yet I used to count the hours to go to her class. Her tests are pretty easy the first test is the hardest and then from the second test to the last, keeps getting easy. For the tests, for the multiples choice study the terms in the book. For fill in the blank, study lecture notes!
She was the best history teacher I ever had. That was three years ago, this is long overdue. I wish she well and happy.
She is such a great teacher! Even if you're not into history, she is so passionate about what she's talking about that it's impossible not be interested. Attendance isn't mandatory, but I recommend going, it will always be entertaining! If you just do the few assignments, take notes, and go over the book before tests you will
What can I say about Professor Wiggins. She is the best history teacher one can ever have. You may absolutely hate history but she will make you fall in love with it all over again. Her tests are super easy. Multiple choice is from the bolded words in the chapter. The short answer is from her class notes. She even bumbs your grade.
The class was easy, but you really have to know your stuff and READ the assignments every week! Dont forget to do that or else, you'll fail. I took her online so thats why the interesting rating is low.
Took her online class this past semester. Her writing assignments are very strict and it is graded more for grammatical errors rather than the actual guidelines. I felt that all my assignments met her requirements but they did not. The class itself is not that hard. Just make sure you check the class each day.
Great motivated teacher who is fair on all levels - I highly recommend taking her class - you will learn something while haveing a great time - one of the best professors I have had at GPC in the last 2 years
100% recommend - great overall experience with Dr. Wiggins - she is fair and teaches with passion! I would take her for every class if I could..
Fantastic teacher! Funny, smart, helpful, and she really cares about her classes. We always had great discussions, and she uses fun videos, etc. to teach class.
I don't know if everyone else had a different teacher than me or something but she was awful. Her quizzes are open-ended and could have multiple possible correct answers, she doesn't grade papers until literally 2 months later, and I have emailed her 3 times starting 3 months ago and still have yet to receive a response. DO NOT TAKE HER!
she is great!she is very fun and loves teaching history.i have taken her class twice and both classes have been awesome.The hybrid class is a bit more challenging because of all the writing assignments and she is a bit more strict when grading this material.Overall,she is amazing and so very helpful!! I think everyone should take her class..Bam!
How is it possible to score 90-100% on every assignment, meet all of her guidelines for the 2 written assignments & she scores them 65% & below?? Slow to respond or update grades. Her online grading scale isn't designed to reflect an overall grade that measures the student's knowledge. You can ACE your quizzes & participation still make a D.
never again
Took this is onlinr-4 week summer session. It is a lot of reading and writing (2 major papers and 2 smaller discussions each week). Tests are difficult and pick out small details that, if you aren't paying attention while reading, you can over look. One of the hardest classes (and I have my BS already).
Taking her class at Dunwoody. Write alot on her homework, should be fine. Her test tho where hard. And they are what really matters in your grade, there is like 4 or 5. IDK how I ended up getting all A's in her test, but I did while everyone else got high F's. Drops your lowest test tho. Don't take if you arent good at history. But good at teaching
I took this at the Dunwoody Campus, and loved the class. I hate history, but Dr. Wiggins made it so interesting. Her lectures and reading the books chronology get you A's on tests. Participation assignments are not tough, and please show up to class! I loved it so much I am taking another class of hers next semester! Take this class!!!!!!!!!!
Dr. Wiggins class is the type of class where if you attend every week, and keep up with the topics discussed in class, an A is easily obtainable. in class discussionslectures are often funny, interesting and very informative. Test are easy as long as you review study material and info from class discussions. Attendance is a must (participation)
Dr. Wiggins is a phenomenal professor! I took the US history hybrid class and it was the easiest A I've earned. Her essays are easy, but watch your grammar. Would definitely take her class again!
Dr. Wiggins is the coolest, most awesome, and fantastic that I have ever met. She is easy going. You only need to do things that she explains on icollege, you can get A easily. Only 4 tests and participation grade. You only to listen and work on the in class lecture. If you struggle, you can always ask her anything and she would definitely help ya!
Dr. Wiggins is great. If you come to class, you'll pass. Her lectures are fun and entertaining because she allows for discussion amongst the class. She drops a test grade. She's easy to talk to and contact. She was my absolute favorite professor in my time at GPC. Would 100% take her again if I could!
Dr. Wiggins is BY FAR the best professor at GPC! She is very enthusiastic and fun. Her lectures are very interesting and she will keep you entertained. She is absolutely wonderful and easy going. I would definitely recommend taking her course! If you pay attention and take notes, you'll do just fine.
do the chronology and take notes and you will pass with an A. she is an amazing professor and it sucks I wont be there next semester to take another class from her. she makes boring history interesting. a few homework's are assigned and not much else. one of my favorite professors.
Dr. Wiggins is a fantastic professor! She drops one test and she gives study guides. Very interesting class lectures about social structures and how history shaped them.
In a time when most teachers can't be bothered. Dr. Wiggins takes the time to impart real knowledge and understanding to people that aren't nearly as excited by history as she is. Her approach forces students to do work outside the classroom, but also sets them up for success in the class. She will make you laugh, but she will make work.
Dr. Wiggins was great! For her first time teaching a summer three week course she did great! Highly recommend that if you are looking to take a US history class that you take Dr. Wiggins. She's nice, keeps class interesting, and makes material easy to learn! Do the readings and pay attention in lecture and you'll succeed in the class.
If you are taking this course online, I highly recommend you get another teacher. Professor Wiggins gives bs weekly quizzes on the readings that are very difficult, and there are many essays and short answer assignments that are given out. If you love reading and writing, take her. If you are just looking ot get an easy A, do not.
She was amazing! I don't personally like history but it was fun when she taught it and I was excited to go into class. Her lectures are fun. You will have to write some papers but she's an easy greater. Her test come half from your notes and half from the book chronology. You wont have memorize specific dates. TAKE HER class!! You won't regret it!
Here is the deal with Dr. Dana, she is really amazing, smart and caring. You have to attend her class and take the lecture notes for the exam. she is really simple and fun. Remember though take notes or copy the notes from a classmate or else you end up getting less than C. I love Dr. Dana she was really smart,friendly and beautifull.
She is an amazing professor. You will learn so much from her. You absolutely have to be in class for the lectures for her exams and you have to know definitions but it's an easy A. When I say if i failed her class it is literally my fault, she will give you chance after chance. If i could take her again I would. Her lectures are amazing.
She was a great teacher, I loved her class. her lectures were amazing. also, the test was not made to trick me but to see my knowledge of the subject. I took this class on the Dunwoody campus and I was extremely happy with this professor. I would recommend to anyone wanting to take American History class with her.
Heavy lecture. You have to take notes every single class to do good on the test as well as final. She is an easy grader, also gives extra credit. You will feel overwhelmed at first but after 3 or 4 weeks, it will be fine.
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER. She is hilarious and makes the class very fun and exciting. I would take her again if I could. Highly recommend her.
So hard professor.
LOVED THIS CLASS! She is so supportive, funny & passionate . We took trips to different museums and went to dinner after! She's amazing and the class is very interesting, you'll learn a lot and it's eye opening. Make sure you take notes because most of the notes are going to be on the test. The study guide is basically the test.
best teacher
She is amazing! I love the classes so much and I enjoyed every single class! She is telling a lot of interesting stories and the PPT are clear. It wasnt an easy A for me since the English is not my first language, but every grade I earn is worth it, I felt I learn so much from her! Take her class.
Worst teacher you ask for help and she threats you with failing you for the entire class
Worst professor you email her with questions and she replies being disrespectful and even if you pass her final she will still fail you and will not drop your lowest grade as most of the professor in GSU do.
Professor Wiggins is amazing. The poor reviews are only from people who cheated or didn't do any of the work. She is a fair professor. I took Women's and Gender studies and loved every moment. You know from the very beginning what she expects. Her tests are fair. She is also an amazing woman who has a huge heart. Please take her !
She is a great professor. I had her twice a week and 1 day was lecture the other day was an assignment to do online once a week. She does take a while to post your grade but if you dont agree with your grade she will listen and give good feedback. She is definitely on your side and I would take her again if I need too.
Funny history teacher barely any homework only a few simple writing assignments and no annoying quizzes at all! Tests aren't too difficult.
I did not like U.S history before her class, but she made it so enjoyable. I love her lectures and I rarely ever say that. I actually looked forward to hearing them. She is really easy on tests, they are not long, and as long as you study the lecture notes you should be fine.
Awesome teacher! History is one of my weakness but she made history pretty easy! Chill professor! Love her!
DR. WIGGINS IS AN AMAZING PROFESSOR!!!! Take her if you can.
Professor Wiggins is great! She does her best to engage students in the material. Just be prepared to actually read an entire textbook. There is a LOT of reading and semi-difficult questions on those readings as homework. Keep up with the homework and you'll do fine. You'll learn things about America that they either never taught you or covered up.
I adored classes with Dr Wiggins. Her lectures are super interesting, easy to follow and engaging. She's super nice, approachable, provides study guides for tests (if not you can just ask) & drops the lowest test grade. Lectures are not necessarily mandatory, but around half the questions on each test are based on lectures so go! She's the best!
This professor encourages great conversations in class.
I took her class as a summer half semester, and it wasn't bad. We were expected to read pretty much the entire textbook, but there were no tests, only writing. We had to write a lot but then again, no exams, tests, or quizzes. Also, a few discussions that were easy.
Professor: -Actually cares, if you need help...just ask! -Grades fast, max one/two weeks to get grades Classwork ): -ONLY writing assignments -Pretty time consuming so DON'T PROCRASTINATE ! -Free textbook -Grades easy (literally ended the class with a 100%), always CITE! -The final was one writing assignment k good luck:)))))))))))))))))))))))
TAKE HER! One of the best professors. Her content is so easy to follow in lectures. The textbook is provided, and she includes study guides for tests. The tests are the same as the study guide, with one or two questions from her lectures. VERY EASY A IF YOU DO WHAT YOUR SUPPOSED TO DO!!!!
Content we are learning is interesting however takes a super long time to grade assignments, grades super harsh for no reason, if your answer isn't long enough, she is going to mark it wrong completely, I honestly wouldn't take her class again.
PLEASE TAKE DR.WIGGINS FOR ANY CLASS SHE OFFERS!! I took her WGSS class. She is the best professor I've ever had. Tests and assignments are easy. I love the content of the class and looked forward to going to class every day. She is very caring and understanding. She is also hilarious. Truly and awesome professor and down to earth person :)
Great class and teacher! Make sure you participate in the discussions as it's often the best part of the class. Do the work. Come to class. You'll be fine
