Very nice lady, has some issues with getting back to students. Overall, nice,hot, and helpful.
This class was so easy, I didn't buy the book and still got an A!
Tests come straight from the book. Homework is pretty easy. Her notes are a good summary of the chapters but they exclude some stuff. You only need to show up for class if you want extra credit.
Very good lecturer. However the tests were all from a test bank that came with the book. So the tests would have questions that were not talked about at all during class, and also would be maybe 2 sentences in the book. Also she has some issues getting back to people through email. Sent her 4 emails and received no responses to any of them.
This was the online version. Ms. Clark is an exceptional lecturer who knows her stuff and cares about her students. She makes every effort to ensure her students have every opportunity to succeed. Mankiw's textbook rocks. The APLIA online learning tool was fantastic. If you don't pass this class you didn't even try and should just leave school!
This was an online class. Mrs. Clark is great lecturer and follows the book to a T. Quizzes and homework are really easy if you read the book. She ended up giving everyone a second chance on most of the quizzes this semester. If you aren't required to take macro/micro but still need an economics class (i.e. CALS requirement), take AEB2014!
Online course. Answers 95% of quiz q's can be googled. APLIA HW comes straight from the book. Gave us a chance to retake the majority of the quizzes. Offers extra credit (good amount). I hate economics, but this class became easy once I got familiar with the quizzes/HW. definitely get an E Book, makes searching 4 quiz answers easier.
GREAT professor, very informative. 99% of the quizzes questions are online, however, APLIA sucks. she gave EC for it. overall, lovely...
SUPER easy class - read the few pages assigned, do the quick homework, watch the 30 min or less of lectures and take the open book quiz. I only spent ~3-4 hours on this class every week, skipped the last test and got a 96%. Lowest quiz grade is dropped and 2 lowest homework grades are dropped. Grade = 40% quizzes, 60% homework. SUPER easy.
VERY EASY CLASS! I took this course while taking 3 core science courses and a science elective. I would highly recommend this course to anyone that's planning on taking an overbearing semester. The material was easy, she lectured well, and what she didn't lecture on was easily Googled. You can drop 2 aplia assignments and 1 quiz. Easy A!
Very easy class. One hw and one quiz a week. Easy to read textbook and look up answers. Definitely recommend taking this.
This is a semi-easy class. All you have to do is watch the lecture notes and do the online quiz and online homework assignment. The key is to watch the lectures and skim the book. Quizzes are open book and you get an hour to do it. The concepts are easy and it is a good class
Easy class. Easy A. You don't need to watch lecture or read anything. Google "AEB2014 Easy A" for a guide on know how get an A on this class without lectures or anything.
Clark was wonderful and responded promptly to emails. I would def take her again. If you want a solid A here is what you need to do: Read the chapters, watch the lecture, and spend time on the hw. I did that then bombed the midterm and final (they are very hard) still made an A :)
This teacher lacks any effort nor knowledge. She teaches of a textbook and retrieves questions from a test bank. Probably why she is teaching a low level economics class (to match her low level economic class?). Easy class.
Excellent professor!! Crystal clear about what she expects and very well organized course! The final project is actually fun and interesting. work was graded on a timely manner... offers some extra credit but you really don't need it! :) Overall I was happy with the course and keep up the great work Professor Clark. She cares for her students .
This class is EXTREMELY frustrating! ZERO organization! This lady can't get her stuff together! She constantly moves around assignment open dates, deadlines, and sends (not exaggerating) at least 10 emails a day! She will drive you INSANE if you like to plan. It will be the most annoying A you ever get in your life if you take this class. UGH!
Ms. Clark is VERY slow at returning grades. Tests are very straight forward. MUST GO TO CLASS. Remember that you must study. You get a formula sheet.
She responds to questions pretty slow. The class is easy if you do your work and don't miss any deadline. The was no exams. I got an A and she gave work but it was very doable and easy.
This is an Easy A if you do your work and don't miss assignments. It is designed for you to do very well in. There are two quizzes, no final, most of the grades are discussion posts and writing assignments. I would take this class again in a heartbeat!
This course is easy to follow and do well in. I don't have much interest in economics, but did gain some after this class.
One of the worst classes I have ever taken. Professor Clark set up every exam differently from how she told us it would be. She would also not answer questions from students appropriately. All directions for most assignments are very unclear. Would ask students clicker questions that were for a grade that even the TAs did not know the answers to.
AEB2014 is the easiest class you will take at UF!! As long as you turn in the work on time it is impossible not to get an A. All the quiz answers can be copy and pasted straight into google and the answers will pop up.
I took this class online and it was one of the easiest classes I have ever taken. I do the assignments on the weekend before it is due and only takes me about 2-3 hours a week to complete. She gives tons of extra credit, so always take advantage of those.
I had to WORK for my A-. 3 assignments per week. Contrary to what others on here say, she doesn't give much extra credit. Organizational skills are terrible. Tries to make the information tricky by embedding core information in paragraphs of text. Obtainable A, but beware she will try to trick you. 100%s on everything is necessary for an A.
I didn't enjoy this class at all. It's not difficult but things are due at 6pm on random days so it's hard to keep track of. She doesn't teach. She gives a topic for the section and assigns "find an article that relates to it." The only things I've learned in this class are from finding news articles, not her. She also NEVER answers emails!
Terrible!!! Clark was late in releasing every module and she rarely responds to email. The TA almost never responded to inquires on the Chat because questions pertained to when (and if) the modules would be released or Clark's poor instructions. Currently, less than a week left of classes, and two modules (4 weeks worth) are yet to be released...
This class is not difficult pretty straightforward. Same thing every week. Assignments due at 6 PM which can be hard to keep track of. Don't expect replies. I've sent her 4 and no response. I sent one once and she didn't reply and then sent one to the entire class. If you have questions you're on your own. Emailing her just wastes your time.
It is the same routine every week: discussion board, quiz, assignment (usually a short paper). Super easy class as long as you do your work on time and follow directions. Easy grader, no exam, good lectures and readings (that you don't even have to look at since the assignments are easy and the quiz answers can be found on the internet).
She's very nice, and the class is pretty easy. There are 12 modules, each containing one homework and one quiz. Most of the quizzes can be found online. The homeworks are annoying and time consuming, but not hard. She grades SUPER slowly, but she's a pretty easy grader overall. Lots of powerpoint assignments, no papers. Take it for an easy A.
Very disorganized, never managed to post a single lecture after module 1. We had to teach ourselves and take quizzes based solely on readings. The class is essentially reading comprehension. Very slow grader, bad at responding to student questions. Never released modules, did not follow syllabus.
This professor is so specific on what she wants there is NO room for creativity or critical thinking. I felt like this was the college version of kindergarten where the teacher holds your hand through every sentence she wants you to write. Get ready for constant BUSY work on top of it; A never ending flow of tedious assignments. I do not recommend.
I hate that I have to take Dr. Clark for so many classes in my major. She is the most unorganized professor I've ever had (that's saying a lot) who doesn't follow the syllabus, doesn't know how to use Canvas, and posts assignments/quizzes last minute so if you have work or other classes to worry about you are out of luck. Easy class, bad professor.
Though Professor Clark is very lenient in grading and allows multiple drops for assignments, quizzes, and one exam, the online class is very unorganized. Honestly you just have to check Canvas early in the week and hope that at some point that week's material will become available. There is no option to work ahead.
I would never recommend this professor. She doesn't answer emails. There are 12 modules but she uploads assignments each week. Sometimes she uploades on Wednesday and assignments are due Monday. Sometimes she uploads them on Friday and due Monday. Would never take her again!
AEB2014 is a very easy class. You don't have to use your brain for this class. However, it is very hard to get in contact with Professor Clark. It would take days to get a response. Also, she releases the assignments pretty late in the week.
The class wasn't hard but she made it hard. VERY unorganized, never managed to post assignments on time or stick to course schedule. Even had syllabus for wrong course posted on Canvas, had to ask dept. for right one. Very slow grader and sometimes picky. Quizzes and assignments open book/Google. Did give one drop for lowest quiz/work grade.
Easy class but a lot of things due every week, one of each: quiz (do the practice quizzes before) based on readings, project, assignment, and discussion with two responses to classmate's discussion post. Each of these take some time to do because you have to read long and specific instructions (VERY important) to follow. Easier to manage over time
Not even finished with the semester yet and I am so fed up with her that I have to write a review. She takes FOREVER to grade assignments so you cannot get any feedback to improve your assignments. Simple assignments have multiple pages of instruction. She has discussion boards open for each assignment, but never replies to any questions. Avoid.
Honestly one of the easiest online professors thus far. Assignments are extremely straightforward and she's extremely fair with grading. All quizzes are open note and open google search, and the majority of the answers can be found on quizlet and coursehero. EASY A, just apply yourself!
Interesting and easy course. She gives you plenty of time to work on assignments. I usually could finish everything early. She was also very helpful during office hours. Extra credit opportunities and no exams!
The only thing I enjoyed about this class was that there was no final. However, Ms. Clarke's lectures were so long, boring, and the readings that were assigned were like full on novels. I do not like economics, but this class made econ so painful. I did not enjoy the class or the teaching style because it was so time consuming.
The class is about what you'd expect. There's a lot of reading/lecture-watching/work involved but assignments have VERY clear criteria and she's an easy grader. As long as you keep track of when things are due you should have no problem doing well.
AEB2014 was not a hard class but it requires a lot of work. Some nice things about it are there are no exams and work is only due every other week. With that being said, the assignments and HW are all SUPER time consuming and all assignments are due at 5PM not 11:59. If you are in CALS and need to take it, take it during a light semester if you can
AEB2014 was the easiest class I've taken at UF. People say it's a lot of work, and I genuinely have no idea what they're talking about. Each module takes about four hours to complete, I literally sat down and did work for this class once a month, finished the whole respective module, and forgot about it. Not just an easy A, this is an easy 97%.
This was such an easy class, but it is important to work ahead because it can get overwhelming if not (projects due at 5pm). TAs grade more on technicalities rather than the content itself. If you do everything she wants you to do format wise you should get an A.
Be prepared for a ton of assignments. However, it's all biweekly so very easy to manage with appropriate planning. The textbook helps for assignments and quizzes. Definitely time consuming but relatively easy.
Be prepared for a ton of assignments. They are all pretty easy content wise but it is definitely time consuming. All the assignments are due biweekly so you basically have 2 weeks to do everything but be prepared to write a lot for most assignments and discussions. Textbook is useful for the quizzes.
This class was the easiest class i've ever taken. The only reason i can see some people not doing well is because it has a lot of work associated with each module. Do each assignment as the instructions say and you will pass with a high A. Each module drops your lowest "category" of grade, so just stay on task and you will pass with a 98 honestly.
This class was a lot of work and all the due dates were consistent which made it pretty easy to stay on track. If you complete all the assignments and follow all the parameters an A is easy but you do have to put in the time and effort.
very tough grader. Her discussion post instructions are extremely unnecessarily lengthy, confusing and she is a super tough grader on them specifically. Doing her discussion posts take longer than the quizzes themselves. As a straight A student, I was surprised when I received a 73/100 on the first discussion post.
I cannot emphasis how stressful this professors disorganization is. Trying to figure out what information is crucial and what is not, just forget it. The descriptions for discussions, assignments or even announcements are very lengthy and unclear. I have to summarize and breakdown discussion questions so I can answer them, ridiculous.
This class is the most disorganized mess I have ever been through. I should have dropped it immediately during drop/add. It's unfortunate there isn't another prof that teaches it. Clark's attempt at organization are flawed, and ultimately result in confusion and stupid specific instructions that are so messy, you will have no idea what to do.
Your adviser will tell you this is an easy course that helps the department, for your own sake, ignore them and take micro. Her class is the biggest waste of time, spent hours just to do a discussion post . Her lectures are useless after module 1, as you can look up all the terms you need to know for homework and quizzes. The class is a joke.
Out of all the 5 classes I took this semester, this was the most tedious, annoying, pointless class I took. I didn't learn one thing in this class. she doesn't respond to emails and doesn't care how you are doing in the class. I would take this class with any other professor other than her.
Course assignments and discussions were unorganized; the directions would tell you to do one thing and then the rubric below would say something different. You're graded more on technicality than content so take that how you will. Unless this class is specifically required for your major, don't bother.
I wasn't a fan of this class. I felt the information to be pointless, you can look up most if not all of the infromation. I only took it because my advisor said I would get rid of taking macroeconomics and microeconomics. I dreaded every assignment I did in this class. Would not recommend, even though I got a good grade. It's a waste of time.
There is a lot of assignments but they are not hard. The grading criteria is described in great detail for every assignment with guidelines and if you follow the instructions you will get a 100 on almost everything. Quizzes are a little more difficult but they are open note. No exams.
No exams. Discussion, assignment or quiz twice a week with very clear directions. Follow directions and write something meaningful to get full credit. Interesting/easy if you like economics (micro & macro) and/or like agribusiness. TAs grade everything. Online lectures on economic principles that are useful for quizzes.
This class will feel like a lot of work if you wait until the last minute to do the weekly assignments. Stay on top of it and this class is an easy A. Clark's way of formatting doesn't make sense sometimes but follow the instructions exactly and you'll be good. You'll get used to it as the semester goes on
Never have I ever been so glad to be done with a class. If you want to be treated like a second grader for an entire semester, I highly suggest this teacher. Seriously, the formatting instructions for discussion posts and assignments were longer than the assignment itself.
Anyone looking for an easy A look no further. The grades are not determined by the substance of your work, but by how well you can follow her seemingly arbitrary formatting instructions. The class doesnt seem to have been updated since 2012, and she doesnt answer emails. Im so glad I paid $1000s for this class!!! :)
You will most likely have zero interaction with Professor Clark while taking AEB2014. There is also so much homework in the class that is due each week. If you don't follow the format of the discussion posts or assignments she requests (which are oddly specific), then you will lose the majority of your points. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE ON SUBMITTING!!!!
This class is honestly a joke. I was told it is a required elective for transfer students entering the CALS program. She is more stringent about what you bold, how you source, and what "defines a paragraph" than the ideas you convey. You can sail through this class with half a brain cell as long as you follow the knit-picky instructions.
The class is not hard to get an A in. You just need to be willing to put in a ton of work. Every module (6 total) consists of the lessons, homework, quiz, discussion post with two responses to classmates, and an activity. Her instructions for every assignment are super specific and detailed. This makes clear what she wants but can be annoying
Class is a lot of work but very manageable. Easy A if you do your work correctly and on time. Reach out to the TA if you have any problems and they will report back to Professor Clark for clarification. Interaction with her was really nice!
This class was extremely easy. If you can follow directions, you will make an A. I wouldn't say you get much out of it, but it is required for CALS.
Dr. Clark had zero involvement in my course. Her assignments were repetitive and tedious, and added nothing beneficial to the course past the first assignment set. Most of the answers to hw and quizzes are on quizlet so its not hard to do well, but her meticulous format instructions make the work much more difficult than it should be.
First I would like to say this class is easy but she has the MOST tedious instructions for her assignments. The instructions span pages. It takes me an hour to finish a discussion post but half the time is spent reading her instructions. Unless you really like this subject I say look elsewhere there are easier classes with less frustration.
The other reviews that talk about the annoying instructions are true. If you want an easy A this class is NOT worth it. She is not involved and makes her students and TAs grade everything. In my opinion, it wasn't worth the tuition money. I say find another class you are interested in.
I did not expect the amount of work load that I would have with the class. The work is relatively easy, but the amount of it is insane. Make sure to look at your assignments, usually there are multiple parts to one assignment. You can meet with Clark and Ta's to review your assignments to get feedback before submitting. Willing to help you learn!
There are no exams. There are 6 open note quizzes (internet search allowed). There are also 6 discussions, projects, and online homeworks. It is INCREDIBLY REPETITIVE AND TIME CONSUMING. It feels like busy work and honestly a huge waste of time. The instructions are really clear and as long as you follow them perfectly, you will get a good grade.
No. Too many lengthy assignments to the point it's hard to keep track. The assignments have annoying instructions as well. If this class is not required, dont take it.
There were about two assignments per week and some of them were rather time consuming, but the quizzes were all open book, open note, and open internet, and there were no exams or a final. The due dates were always 5pm, so that added a bit of stress, but if you need an economics credit and you don't mind doing a little extra work, take this class.
As long as you follow instructions carefully you will do well, but she lays everything out, (like how to use Canvas) so it gets exhausting. The work is easy enough, all open note quizzes and the project builds upon itself all semester. Pay attention to deadlines since many discussions and assignments are multi-part. Good for STEM major freshmen.
THIS CLASS IS THE MOST FRUSTRATING CLASS EVER. OVERALL, ASSIGNMENTS ARE EASY, BUT HER INSTRUCTIONS ARE SOOO LONG AND COMPLICATED FOR EVEN THE MOST SIMPLE TASKS. IT WILL BE AN EASY A, BUT THE AMOUNT OF FRUSTRATION IS NOT WORTH IT.
I did not interact with the professor in any way throughout the course. AEB2014 is online asynchronous, so I was expecting to watch recorded lectures. Instead, Clark put in 0 effort and did not create a single material used in the course - it was all from the textbook. This was sincerely the worst experience of my life and I learned nothing.
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. The instructions for each assignment is like two pages long and there are way too many assignments in one week for a summer class. No lectures.Since shes not doing lectures you would think the professor would have plenty of time for grading, but I guess not because it is the last week and I have one grade in the grade book.
If you value your time and sanity, don't take this class. The syllabus contradicted itself repeatedly, she never responded to emails despite saying she would, she put in 4 grades out of 19 with three days left in the class, and 3 of the assignments were literally to just copy and paste sentences from an old assignment, just in a different format.
Looking at the other reviews I expected worse, but the class wasn't that bad. The instructions are lengthy and hard to comprehend sometimes, but as long as you do the work assigned and semi pay attention you'll get an A. She's also really nice, and very willing to work with you if something comes up.
This class is run by the students and not in a good way. She never answers her emails and every assignment has a dissertation of instructions that takes you an hour to read. She takes off petty points and overall, the class is run like a middle school english class. We grade each others work so she doesn't have to do the work. I don't recommend her
I highly do not recommend this class. The professor is nearly impossible to contact. Emails from the beginning of the semester have not been answered. She does not show up to her own office hours. The assignments take like 4 hours each, and it is way too much work and unnecessary stress. Take a different professor, or a different econ class.
Class was very simple, 6 modules each with discussions, homeworks, and quizzes, there was some extra credit and assignments were overall pretty simple.
The assignments weren't challenging at all but they were very time-consuming. The instructions for all the assignments were very tedious but the grading wasn't that bad so you can definitely end up with an A as long as you follow all the instructions. The professor was bad at responding to emails but if you just join office hours she will help you.
Don't let the reviews scare you the class is not that bad. Their is a lot of instructions but as long as you do everything for an assignment you will get a good grade. No exams and quizzes are open note. You have to do two discussion post a week or a bunch of story book assignments, they switch off each week. I think I will end up with an A.
A great professor and has been more available this semester for help. You have about 20 things due a week. Not hard assignments just a very time consuming class. No exams though, so overall I rather do the extra work and know I get an A then take the other economic classes where exams are the only thing your grade consist of.
The class was straightforward with open-note assignments. However, it can be time-consuming. The professor made the class difficult by assigning assignments late, which left limited time to complete them alongside other classes. The professor doesn't respond to emails, so attend office hours or ask a TA for help. Easy class but bad professor.
Absolutely awful professor. She gives out way too much work, and at least for the semester I had her, she would release the module with about 15 assignments every week the week it was due. You have no time to breathe, and if you want to get it done while being a busy student, you have to cheat and not actually learn the material.
Very understanding, set expectations and met them throughout the course. Assignments built on each other throughout the semester so there wasn't busy work. Would highly recommend the Quest 2 class Valuing Circular Food Economies. Very interesting class to take.
Other reviews are pretty much right. Easy class, but a lot of busywork. Never actually interacted with the professor, it's all graded automatically or run by TAs. TAs grade very harshly, but that could change when you take it. Overall easy grade, I didn't even do some of the assignments and I got a B. I'm avoiding this professor in the future.
This class was terrible DO NOT TAKE IT. Dr. Clark could not be reached by email or office hours at any time during the semester. It was about 10 hours of work for each module. 1 module was due weekly. Instructions on ALL assignments were lengthy and unclear. Content was understandable but the way it was "taught" was unbearable.
She was a whatever professor, I honestly didn't need her for the course. Her directions on assignments were SO long to read. It's an easy class but she uploads assignments kinda late, especially for being online. The course is just busy work; you can chat GPT almost everything.
chill class i took it online as a dual enrolemt course, it was my first and it was a good start. Lots of reading and McGraw hill assigments. Besides that most of the class was discussion post and a final project work. But there was no final exam so that is a bonus
You will not interact with this professor even once throughout the semester. She is super hard to reach, and does not post all assignments ahead of time. The problem with this is she often forgets, then when she remembers; she assigns 2 weeks worth of assignments on wednesday, due that sunday. Class is ran by TAs that grade weeks later.
Accessibility issues with most course modules, resulting in modules released late. Discussion board was supposed to be monitored to help with issues, but professor/TA's did not respond. Tons of busywork and reading in lectures and assignments. I've never seen instructions that long. Too many issues to discuss in this rating. Do not recommend.
Lots of busy work, but manageable if you stay on top of it. The professor can be tough to reach, so utilizing Unstuckstudy and TAs for support is key. Put in the effort and you'll likely get an A.
Dr. Clark is incredibly kind and available to students, her class was pretty interesting and not very hard. The reading material was often provided in class. The group projects were easy. Overall Dr. Clark is an amazing professor, I very much enjoyed this class and her teaching
Dr. Clark is very knowledgeable about agricultural economic concepts. However, she is not very responsive, which is a big deterrent for me when looking for a good professor. Her assignments, quizzes, and lectures are well thought-out, just sometimes difficult to get adequate feedback on why you got points off. I don't dislike her though.
Professor Clark in AEB2014 was very clear in her expectations for the class. If she says expect to work 9-10 hours a week on the class she truly means it. Work load is heavy and grades aren't posted for a few months. However she is a helpful and positive teacher who truly has students best interests at heart
Easy A. Was not the biggest fan of her in-person lectures, but the good thing about them was that you never had to do the online discussion assignments. All of the assignments, homework, and quizzes were straightforward. She's also very nice and flexible.
