This is not a difficult class to pass and the amount of work is fair. If you find the material is even mildly interesting you can easily do well. The feedback is substantive and helpful, the workload is consistent and the professor is very nice, and always willing to help. I loved this class.

She was a tough grader The class was ok. she do gives feedback but sometimes some of the topics was really stuff that I would not find interesting so I guess it made me not too motivated to write those papers. I wouldn't mind taking her again. she drop two of the lowest test scores which can harm or help your grade,

There is an online textbook with videos and "knowledge check points" which made the reading more engaging for me! I thought she was very nice and personable. She would message the class in canvas every week and it was always positive. She seemed to care about us and wished us well for the holidays. Her grading was clear, and she gave good feedback.

Sociology is a difficult course. The feedback from the teacher helped a lot, she pointed out the mistakes very carefully. I tried hard and this served as an incentive for me to try even better. Minuses: too strict requirements for citations and sources, as well as obtaining ratings takes a long time. I'm glad I chose her to study this course

I enjoyed this class. The instructor is friendly and straightforward. Total grade is weighted more in discussion posts than quizzes or tests to show that you understand the material. There is a lot of writing, but isn't bad since the material is interesting. There's 50 pt total extra credit and you can turn in assignment a day late for half credit.

It opens your mind to view social problems from different perspectives. Nice extra credit opportunities and turn in work a day late for 1/2 credit. One makeup assignment.

She is a great professor if you keep up with the work every week, read the assigned stuff then you will get a good grade in the class. assignments are easy to understand. She does grade based on the quality of the work so if you write a few sentences she will give you a lower grade than if you took the the time to write a well written response.

Gayle was great! A heads up is there is A LOT of reading and notes required and the class is pretty extensive so if you want an easy A this is NOT the class you want to take, but if you actually want to learn and gain a ton of knowledge it's a great class and she's pretty clear on everything she asks. no gray areas which is nice.

Professor D'Andrea was one of the best professors I have had so far. I enjoyed this class. Constructive criticism I give is to limit the required words in DBs because, with the kind of learner I am, I feel I can better answer the prompt with quality instead of quantity; I felt that sometimes I was using fillers which in turn lowered my scores.

This Professor does have a textbook for class, but no need to purchase as she provides everything you need with each module. There is a good amount of reading, great lectures, and extra resources, and the amount of homework per week is definitely manageable if you stay on top of it, and its easier to get it done earlier in the week if your able to.

Gayle was an amazing teacher, her class was very simple. The only thing I'll say is that the lectures take the entire class, most of the time it was just her lecturing for an hour and a half. She was very kind and understanding :)

I took Professor D'Andrea's 7-week accelerated class. Because this was an accelerated class, there were quite a few assignments, however, late assignments were accepted throughout the entire semester for every single mandatory assignment that was due. Flexible. Respectful.Inclusive.Highly educated.Encouraged group discussion.Informative.

I had a wonderful time in her class this is my first course that i've taken at any community college and my first year at Reynolds and professor Gayle is a great teacher to start off with. When you need helps she offers assistance on how you could improve providing understanding of the assignment and this class was fairly easy to keep track with.

She gives very detailed feedback on papers you write, several comments and critiques, grades them in a nitpicky way, but doesn't deduct an insane number of points for this. Large writing assignments weekly w/ several detailed questions on the reading, not just repeating what you learned, time consuming, but it does help the student actually learn.

Professor Gayle is an awesome Sociology teacher. You will do a lot of work, so be careful if you are taking the 7-week class instead of the 15-week class. I should have taken the 15 week version to avoid two chapters, two quizzes, and heavy writing each week. I would give this advice for almost any class though tbh. Take 15 week classes.

Professor Gayle D'Andrea syllabus is straight forward. She is easy to reach out. I took a 7 week course so the class was rapid. There was a lot of reading, but this was manageable if you stay consistent with the work. There are sort quizzes after reading each module. Which reflect on what you have read. Overall, I enjoy this course.

A wonderful prof. Provides great & critical feedback. I wouldn't say she's an easy grader but she's fair. Clear course outline, expectations & deadlines. It's a 10 module course, but does not require completion of all 10. She keeps 4 reflections you did well & 2 of 3 assignments. If you do well through the semester, she may not require a final.
