Good professor, she knows her stuff and her exams are based on the lectures. Study and you will get an A.
she gives extra credit assignment to boost up your test grade by 10 pts, so do them because her tests are not easy! read the chapters and skim through her power points. she is hard to get a hold of through email and otherwise so good luck to you.
Simply put, she is the best for this course!
Awesome teacher, clear, well spoken. made coming to class Beneficial, Uplifting, & Thoughtful. I was never bored at a lecture, she always had me captivated and never had a problem holding my attentions.
Heck of a teacher
Great professor. You got to study hard, and review the textbook throughly. She makes the material simple, so simple it looks stupidly easy at times. One of the best EAS professors at ccny
Shes great, gives alot of extra credit, wants you to learn and do well. Study the slides, understand the vocabulary words from the text, and do all hw, assignments and work she asks. And shes also very good looking.
Excellent teacher. She keeps the attention of the class, presents the work clearly, encourages participation, and creates very useful powerpoints.
She is my favorite professor
A complete waste of time. Cares little about students and their learning. Screws up and makes students pay for her mistakes. Unprepared and unprofessional. A total joke.
She is one of the best professors in ccny. she gives powerpoints which are extremely helpful/useful for weekly blackboard assignments. she only gives midterm and final. most of the questions are from the blackboard assignments. easy professsor! I recommend!
SHE IS THE BEST PROFESSOR!!! THE MIDTERM AND FINAL ARE WAY TOO EASY. ITS STRICTLY FROM THE BLACKBOARD ASSIGNMENTS. SO ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS MEMORIZE THE ANSWERS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!!!
Clear PowerPoints which she posts on Blackboard. Blackboard assignments every week which are relatively easy with the help of the powerpoint. One midterm and one final.
She is a very easy professor. The powerpoints are always posted on Blackboard(If its not, just remind her) The midterm and the final are all questions taken from the blackboard assignments. Easy A in this class.
This is a type easy class. There is a midterm & a final. She has extra credits, 2 of them are papers based on the movies she makes you watch & something to print out. Easy. The final/midterm are from the assignments. Plus, don't buy the book, its online and she barely uses it!
The class is not that difficult however i recommend you get a textbook (any textbook) to understand the material. There is a group project that you know about at the beginning of the semester and is due at the end. The wise thing to do is start early so your group is not a mess before finals week.
Anyone who needs a science course should definitely take this one! Very easy class, just make sure to pay attention to lectures. Regardless they are posted online, about 8-10 online BB quizzes on those lecture powerpoint slides. Only gives a midterm and final. HIGHLY Recommend she makes lectures interesting with her fun personality, and she's HOT!
This semester she was not an EASY A. Her midterm was barely on her midterm review guide. Labs were easy and lectures pretty interesting. She does give extra credit publicly and privately. The class was fair but the midterm and especially for an elective class, it was not! I recommend taking the class for the elective requirement, just be aware!
Lab instructor for Engr 106 Pretty chill, made us explore the lab for ourselves, if we needed help she was there. Shes clear, nice, good at teaching, her lab final was kind of challenging, lenient with grades. She is very HOT. Shes leaving tho, its Sad that the EAS Dept. chose Prof. Lampousis's research over her teaching
Lets you know how well you do in class. Tests are online; some can retake until get 100. Wish more feedback was provided on assignments, but she is not too harsh grading. Overall good professor. I recommend.
She's pretty approachable about questions about the material. read the power points, I cannot stress this enough. You will pass on that very strategy. She's pretty funny too. She one time made a joke of the way this one kid said a sentence. Very nice and made the topic interesting. Take her for sure
Office hours were useless because she does not know how to use the software that she wants us to learn. Sneaks in assignments within 48 hours of deadline without announcing them. Project and project proposal expectations were unclear, to the point where she confused herself of what to expect. And, her lecture slides are a swirling vortex of entopy
I took her for Perspectives of Global Warming and i thought that she was really good. The lectures were clear and not too long, if you can take notes than you're good. She also made her lectures entertaining with cool side stories and would ask for student opinions. Overall I'd take her again, but you can expect a moderate amount of work dude.
Only have a midterm and final exam, only homework is to read (simple enough), lets class out early most of the time, only difficult part is the lab portion of the class. She knows exactly what she is doing and makes it simple enough to understand, she does not expect much from students
Seriously if you can't pass her class then college isn't for you. Her presentations are A1, because they relate to the material found in labs/midterm/final. I took Persp. of Global Warming as an elective as a BA student and I found the concepts easy. Study the powerpoints. Also, she gives extra credit if needed. Did I mention she's hot...? :)
Dr. Padilla is an excellent professor. EAS 104 was also a really easy class. But while it was really easy, it was also really interesting. I learned a lot from her lectures coupled with my TA's labs.
Easy class. GPA saver. She's the friendliest professor ever too.
Dr. Padilla is awesome! She is a GREAT professor, keeps the class interested, she is funny, and clear in her lectures. She is one of the coolest professor in CCNY. I learned from her more than I have learned in any other class, EVER. Again, she keeps you interested in the material and relates it to current events. TAKE HER. You will love this class
Padilla is a very straight-forward professor. If you attend her lectures and complete all assignments, despite a few low grades, you will pass. She is funny and very intelligent in her work. Do not skip class or take her easy exams for granted. Do as much as you can and you will receive a good grade.
Very unclear about assignments, tests, or what's even happening in the class. Padilla is like a passive aggressive and I watched her give a lot of bad attitude to the students she doesn't like, I felt so bad for them. Woulda dropped the class if it weren't a requirement.
She is a great professor, doesn't like to lecture for more than an hour usually so always lets class out early, offers ample extra credit options. Go to class or have a friend give u the attendance code. All exams online, even midterm and final. Never used the textbooks, waste of money. Easy A! Anyone who failed, failed themselves.
She is pretty cool. She gives some online homework that you can find in the internet. Just attend class for the Tophat code she requires. Don't buy the book because you won't need it (she gives you slides that she uses). Also midterm and final are also online and you can take it twice. She also gives easy extra credits. She's a GPA saver!
Her class is extremely easy. Its insane if you get below a B+ in this class. All quizzes, exams, & HW are all online. Easy easy easy. Lab instructor Khan is the better choice along with this class. Good gpa booster.
Absent too often. Grading criteria was not clear enough. Lectures were extremely boring
Amazing professor! Even with a giant 200 student class, she makes it feel like she's talking to you personally. She gives cool hw assignments. EC is given and she understands that students have lives and other classes so she doesn't bombard you with work. She's funny and knows how to make lectures interesting for her students. Totally recommend!!
She's very chill with this class and does a great job of teaching, don't buy the textbook because her slides are on blackboard. You need to go to class to get the code for online attendance. Take Ashfaq Khan for your TA he's great and straightforward. This class is not really a difficult one it shouldn't be hard to get at least a B+
She's a chill professor. Lectures are interesting, and the work is very easy. It's an easy A class. Just show up to lecture because she uses a TopHat code. The slides are all on Blackboard so you won't need a textbook.
Easiest class ever. Barely any homework. Use an app, TopHat for attendance, PowerPoint and pop quizzes. Dont waste money on textbook. Everything is online, even the midterm and final. Lab is wild easy. Could be an online class honestly.
My friends slept in every single lecture and they got A+. Literally only show up for attendance.
sometimes she does pop quizzes, but u don't need to use a textbook but u do have to purchase a app for attendance and popquizes for 26$ I would def recommend her but u do need to attend lectures to get the attendance code an she does pop quizzes so u might wanna pay attention to the app during class time. the final an midterm an hw are all online.
show up get the attendance code an ur good, may have popquizes everything is online an open book lectures aRe boring this class is an easy A
Professor Padilla is a great professor. She clearly explains everything. Her EAS 104 class is an easy A. Take her!!
Amazing professor. Even though the lectures sometimes drag, she does her best to make it as interesting as possible. Shes very knowledgeable and engaging. Everything is open book all you have to do is put in the effort to search for the info and show up and its an easy A
This class is nearly impossible to fail. She gives a few in class quizzes that are based on the material she's just gone over, there is a midterm and a final that are both take home, and there are weekly labs that your TA grades. This class definitely depends on who your TA is but I think you would have to work to fail this class. So easy for EAS.
Professor Padilla is a great Professor. You will need Top Hat for the class because that's where she takes attendance and where your pop quizzes will be at. All exams are on blackboard as well as assignments so it's an easy class. It's pretty hard to fail this class to be honest. All grading criteria is very clear as well. Highly suggest taking her
Absolutely loved her. Basically a hs science class. She tries really hard to make lectures interesting and achieves that goal. Midterm and final are both online and open book.
This class is extremely easy to pass. Both the midterm and final are online. You also are to answer questions during class based off of the powerpoints providing using an app. If you get the attendance code, there's no need to stay in class as long as you're following along in case of a question. Labs are easy and straightforward. EC is given.
She is very unorganized. She is also unprofessional. She picks on students and makes them feel awkward. She also tries to make the lecture interesting by cracking jokes but shes always the only one laughing.
Shes unorganized but easy A. Uses Tophat app to take attendance and post questions. Dont have to go to lecture just get the code from someone. Midterm and final online. Labs are fun bc of your instructors. Take it if you want for GPA. But dont take if you actually want to learn.
This class is an easy A. She uses tophat in class for attendance and questions that count towards your grade almost every class. Super easy because the answers are usually right before the questions in her presentations, you just have to pay attention. Everything is online; midterm, final, hws, quizzes. Open book and at least a week to submit.
This class was easygoing. All the hw, quizzes, and exams were online on blackboard. She made lectures interesting, and she's funny. Gave lots of extra credit. You don't need a textbook because all her lectures are through powerpoint. Take her!
2ez. Just get tophat 4Head
She's a good teacher. She speaks slowly so we don't get lost while listening to the lectures. And she uses phenomena in our daily life as examples to explain the materials so it's easier for us to understand the science. So she knows how to teach. Moreover, exams, lab, and HW are easy and she gives extra credits, which are what you guys like.
If you are one of the many students taking Global Warming to avoid biology, then take this class. If your taking this class seriously, then don't take this class. she is very understanding and practical.
Her lectures are very entertaining, you won't be bored if you actually pay attention. The only downside to this course is the lab session that you have to go to on a weekly basis to be able to do your labs. There are weekly labs. Tests are online, there are a few assignments apart from the labs, and TOPHAT is used to mark attendance.
She is a good teach. she is not helpful. I had online classes and her lab instructions was soo bad that I don't think after in-person lab classes i really had a good lab class and she getting a bad grade and she for mindtap and that not help full at all. Not every one have internet all the time any she don' want to understand.
Tbh I dont usually pay attention to the class. She do have inclass questions using blackboard or tophat. Easy A class, and you just shows up and do your thing. Take her class for credit definetly. It seems imitating but how she make exams take home makes a lot of benifits and makes it an easy A.
This class was straightforward and easygoing. She makes lectures interesting and is very understanding. The few assignments, midterm, and final are all on Blackboard and open book. Questions during lecture were annoying but not difficult. No textbook just powerpoint slides. She also takes attendance. Great professor and a great experience!
I took her online this June online and she was really simplistic. She gives in class quizzes and maybe a homework once a week. Labs were easy for the most part and some lab quizzes she chose to give out some days. Midterm and final were open book and she gave extra credit optional. No textbook needed. She was really nice on grading, too.
I took her for EAS 10400 online this semester, it is split between her and another teacher. She is really nice, definitely cares about students. Attendance is highly recommended but if you are absent she makes presentations available. Overall she explains things really well, and doesn't pile on a lot of homework or make tests too difficult.
She doesn't give a lot of assignments, and her midterm is OpenBook. I would recommend taking her for eas 10400. But be aware that this class is split between two professors, with another professor named Jorge Corredor, who just started teaching at ccny.
Dr. Padilla is a very chill professor. FIQWS 10011 shouldn't be hard in general and she made sure that. She gives attendance code and some in class assignments throughout the semester. The major assignments are a group presentation and a paper. Her lectures are alright and she keeps things simple. Passing this class won't be hard.
Good class
She is a gem, take her. one of the best professors you will ever get, very nice, respectful, and understanding.
This class is an easy A if you aren't lazy. Her exams are open book. There are 8 labs, some quizzes based on the lectures and labs, and multiple-choice homework. Do the work and you'll pass. The assignments felt more like a task to get out the way. She doesn't teach the labs, a TA does. As long as you get a good TA, the labs should be easy.
Best class I took in the summer she gives you work with assignments on blackboard and couple assignments on homework one midterm and one final. The grade breakdown is as follows: 20% Homework, 20% In Class Assignments, 20%Lab (+ lab exam), 20% Midterm and 20% Final Exam.
She was the best! She made lectures to where students were engaged. She does give a lot of work in the summer that you have to keep track of but everything is open book so it is very easy. She gives opportunity for extra credit as well. EASY A for sure. She even allows makeups, just do everything.
One of best professors had in ccny. Could make the lessons more interesting. Barely get any homework. But do get a lot of class work. Quizzes are short and homework is easy. No way you can fail unless you don't turn in anything. Do wish had her for the lab
Dr. Padilla is a very funny and caring professor! She has clear expectations and takes the time to answer any questions. She presents her material in a way that is easy to understand! The work for this class is pretty easy. Her finals and midterms are all multiple choice without a time limit. I highly recommend her for this class!
If you keep up with work and go to her lectures it's an easy A! Her lectures are super easy to understand and always cover what will be on her exams. You get classwork so you must go to her lectures, which is what you're supposed to be doing anyway. Give in all your work and you will pass! Highly recommend.
The professor was very sweet and understanding in class and always made sure every student understood what was being asked of them. Definitely a class I enjoyed!
She answers every question you would ask relates to the class, sweet and supportive, I would love to take her class again.
I really enjoyed professor Padilla. Science is really not my favorite subject, but she made it digestible. I had her for the summer course, which had like 3-hour lectures, and she would give us constant 20-min breaks every class. With moderate studying, I was able to get an A+. She is not out to get you, which I really came to appreciate.
She is a fun professor and gives easy quizzes and tests, she knows students take her classes just for the credits, so she makes sure everybody is going to pass. Put your phone on silent, otherwise, she'll give pop quizzes if she hears a phone ringing.
Hmmmmmm.......................Oh, I got it! Professor rating.....
Professor Padilla provided engaging lectures and structured the course to give a lot of flexibility to us as students with extra credit and midterms. Her lectures are informative to where they alone have been enough to do well. Be sure to silence phones, that's her main rule and repeated disruptions can cause a paper pop quiz.
Very informative. She was well prepared for the class and the lectures. It showed that she cares about her students. Give us many chances to get a good grade. Honestly, I would love to have all professors like her
Good professor and makes it easy on students to do well. She's not out to get you. Gives plenty of opportunity to earn your grade. Just pay attention during lectures so you can do the quizzes. Attendance is really the only hard part.
She is a great professor, gives quizzes and tests that are easy, and wants everyone to pass her class. Just make sure to put your phone on silent and don't make any disruptions during class, or else it can cause a paper pop quiz
Makes class fun and entertaining. Makes the lesson easy to understand. Only thing is she give pop up quiz if any students phone rings so make sure your phones are silent lol.
She deserves rating beyond 5. Ratings below 5 are false. She is extremally caring and knowledgeable Professor. Her classes are fun & simple. Learned MATLAB in this class. She taught it like it was nothing. Easy final & 3 Extra credits. She is a diamond of City College. I'll always be gratefully to have her for any course possible. She is the best!
Dr. Padilla is AMAZING. Her class is the easiest A you could get. She makes everything so simple and stress-free. She knows the majority of students take her class for requirements, so she doesn't expect a lot from us. She is also very witty. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to her during her lectures. Very smart and kind professor.
Amazing professor. Gives out many opportunities for you to pass. She might seem intimidating at first but you won't regret taking her. Definitely take her for science requirements and/or earth science if you need to. Beware that if your device goes off in class she will give you a paper pop quiz.
This class and the teacher were okay, take this class online trust me it's easier to understand and this class has a lab with it, Lab is way worse
This class was great. She made the lecture very interesting. She gives online quizzes and occasionally paper pop quizzes. Assignments were online and manageable. I definitely would take it again.
I took this as a Science elective as a engr major. Lectures are generally boring but required for attendance and occasionally online quizzes. The labs are also boring and a lot of work. Generally an easy A but its just a boring course in general. She gives out a ton of extra credit for tests which is cool. Exams are multiple choice.
you will get a pop quiz if your devices ring during her lecture. Exams are online
her lectures are honestly interesting and easy to understand. sometimes she does get sidetracked and distracted but it is minimal. she follows a good schedule of lecture --> quiz --> tests so it is easy to be caught on that. only downside is having class on Friday lol.
I took this cause all the people in the rating saying how easy this class is but I truly feel gaslit. The final was a horror show! She does have favoritism towards EAS majors. Lectures are boring. Did not return any of my emails.. As someone who is not a great test taker.. she made me felt anxious every single test..
clear and understanding professor that allows for grade recovery after exams. generous extra credit, online homework with week-long duedate, and frequent pop quizzes when phone notifications go off -- all online with multiple attempts for 100%. key is to pay attention lecture and do well in lab
