This teacher just plain reads out of the freakin' book!!! She is monotne and BORING! I warn you!!! Do not take this teacher!!! I don't know how she got this job!
This is a wonder teacher. couldn't ask for a better phys 1301 teacher she's very fair
I don't know what that other person was talking about, she was great. I took her over the winter mini section and I thought I would have a hard time with the course since it was only three weeks, but I didn't. Love her powerpoints and the games right before the test really help.
Loved this professor. She is very fair and gives you every opporunity to get a good grade in her class. She has tons of bonus and if you pay attention and take good notes you will do just fine on the exams. She also has a review right before each test and she always brought us pizza or subway for the review. Very nice professor. You will love her!
I had her in the Fall of 2006 and she was very kind to me. I had to miss some classes due to surgery and she caught me up after classes. She was very fair and super nice. Game days were the best because she brought pizza for the class and gave us a great review before each test. I am now taking her for PSYC 2314 and so far it's great
I am taking her right now for Intro to Psyc and I do like her. The first two test I got an A on, but her third test was a little harder. If you take her make sure you really study for that third test. This professor gives bonus opporunities all of the time. You are a fool if you do not take advantage of the bonus.
I just recently took her class & loved it. I feel that I learned everything I needed to learn & she does an awesome job by prepping you for your tests & final exam. Couldn't ask for more!
Summer school (Mini Session) + Psychology = CRAZY! I thought it would be a crazy four weeks of Psychology 2314 and I would go crazy trying to do this class, but Ms. Dunn was a great professor! As long as you do the work she gives you, there will not be a problem passing the class. If you want a good grade then you need to take her!
Love her! Currently enrolled in her 2301 class. I wish all my professors were like her. I will be taking her again for more psyc classes. The best!
I had heard some good and bad things about this professor so I wasn't sure about taking her, but I am so glad that I did. None of the bad things were true and she was the best. I loved going to her class and I learned a lot from her. She only teaches a few classes each semester so get her if you can. My class was full from day one.
She is a really cool teacher, she is very young so she is easy to understand. As long as you study you will pass her tests. At the beginning we used to get a quiz about every week. I recommend this class to people who want to learn and have fun.
I didn't take her class at HCC, I had her at San Jac Central this past semester. If you want a good grade in Psyc, you should take this teacher. Explains everything in a way you understand it, plus she is funny. Loved the class! Bring your book to every class cuz you never know when you might need it.
I disagree with the comment below. I have learned a lot from her class so far and EVERYONE that I talked to prior to taking her class had nothing but positive things to say about the professor and the class. I would highly suggest taking her class if you need to take psychology. Test comes from notes, don't need book.
I just got finished taking her for Summer School. Before entering the class I did not really care about the subject, but found it to be very interesting. Did not really use the book that much, took notes from her power points and studied them, did very well on her exams. She is extremely nice and the class is fun. I would recommend taking her!
Currently taking this professor. Great class, test come directly from her lectures and power points. There is a project in the class, just follow the instructions and you will do great. The class is fun and I learned a lot!
She's sooo easy and so cool! I love her!
Easy Class. Nice professor. Most of what you learn is common sense and not all that interesting. This wouldn't be the class to take if you were really interested in the field of psychology. I'd only take it if you need it for nursing.
TESTS COME STRAIGHT FROM LECTURES & POWERPOINTS (WHICH SHE WILL NOT PRINT 4 U IF U MISS) NEVER USED BOOK.EASY CLASS IF U TAKE NOTES.I USED A LAPTOP BCUZ THERE R SO MANY!VERY COOL/NICE TEACHER.EXTREMELY HELPFUL/UNDERSTANDING. REVIEWS B4 ALL TESTS.PAY ATTENTION & FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS 4 PSYC FAIR PROJ. & U WILL PASS.I GOT AN A & 1ST PLACE IN PSYC FAIR.
This is an easy class. Take notes while in class. The test can be open book if the class decides on that. The questions on the test are exactly what's in your notes. She is very helpful and easy to understand. I highly recommend her. She is also fairly young, so she's very cool :>
Very easy class! She pretty much just reads off power points but her exams come straight from each of the slides. She is a very intelligent person and she makes the class interesting. Great Professor! Easy A seriously.
good teacher helps students alot.also you need to study but her class is good easy teacher and gives you days off
I can honestly say the class was very interesting and I did learn some things that I didn't know. The professor was extremely helpful and gave people plenty of extra credit and points to receive a decent grade. She also tells stories to go along with her powerpoint slides. I highly recommend her but get ready to work for an A!
Interesting class. Easy A, but you have to work for it!
OMG!!! Gotta take her. She is very fair and helpful. All lectures comes straight from powerpoint and tests were open book. Makes lectures very intersting and fun. Makes everyone feel very comfortable. Take notes and show up. Easy A
Very laid back...maybe too laid back for me. She sometimes teaches like she just doesn't care.
Very laid back...maybe too laid back for me. She sometimes teaches like she just doesn't care. She talks a lot about her kids. I love kids but I would rather learn that get to know her and her family.
She is very easy and laid back.She is also very help fair and helpful.All lectures comes straight from powerpoint and tests were open book. Makes lectures very intersting and fun. Makes everyone feel very comfortable. gave people plenty of extra credit and points.Take notes and show up.
Great class and instructor, took summer course and it really moved. Used PP notes and she gives plenty of time to copy. She points out important items that will be on test. Just show up and follow instructions and you will get a good grade. She made the class really interesting. Very laid back.
All you do is take notes.., writting will be a must!!!be prepaired to write...you really don't do work assignments and quizes..... You pretty much have to learn off the notes....
I have really enjoyed this class and her as a professor. Take GOOD notes you will need them for the test. All tests are open book/notes but you still need to study to pass them. Prepare well for the project and follow the directions for it. She will also help you any way she can. Highly recommend her class.
She is very straightforward about what we need to know and what she wants. You literally need to be there every day because your notes are vital for your exams. I missed class one day and didn't get the notes and got a low grade on the test. Overall, good class.
classes are hybrid. since you only meet once a week, attendance is important.exams are open note, but you still need to study. I enjoyed her class, will be taking her for Lifespan. The comment below about talking about her kids, she uses examples from her life to explain concepts. they helped me understand the concepts better!
Class us hybrid, only meet once a week in evening. All exams are open booknotes. Only 1.5 hrs for 70 questions, so take good notes. project is easy if you do as instructed, follow all guidelines and get extra credit. she is funny and energetic, easy to understand and friendly.
I took her intro to psyc and well as life span development . I really wish she taught more classes. Excellent teacher and very humorous.
Took the hybrid Introduction to Psych class for Summer I semester, and the majority of the course work was online. We only met four times out of five weeks due to weather issues and teacher cancellation. I would only suggest this Hybrid course for those who are diligent. There is lots of course work that students must stay on top of for success.
Professor Dunn is great! She does outline everything that you need to do at the beginning of the semester to pass the course. As long as you attend class and turn in all of your assignments you will pass. Do no be late, you will miss important information.
Pretty easy as long as you read your book and turn your work in on time. All work is online, four test, and her final.
best teacher ever!
She waits until the last week of class to pile alot of work on you. Her grading is unclear.I would not recommend her at all.
took her hybrid class and really loved it. All exams were online and you could find it on google. Do her assignments and she just grades it as you do it, not how you do it. I did not answer right for assignments' questions but I still got good grade. One research paper but it is easy. I did 4 page essay and she did not expect me to write that long.
Worst decision of my life. She grades pretty easily on the worksheets (if she does take off she doesn't tell you why tho). However, the exams are just dumb. Someone mentioned that the exams are on quizlet. They are, but a lot of the answers are wrong. But that's not the problem. She just puts questions on there that aren't even mentioned in book
Took lifespan with her online. If you don't like to read the textbook DO NOT TAKE HER. Her power point notes are pretty useless without reading the book. She was very difficult to contact and did not respond to my emails in a timely manner. She grades her assignments pretty easily, however she is not clear about her grading criteria. READ READ READ
I took her for May mini & to be honest, I didn't enjoy the class. She was extremely hard to get in contact with & non-responsive. Her exams are 75 questions each, 1.5 hrs to take them online. Though you can some questions online, a lot of them are incorrect. The exams are 60% of your grade(HIGH). There's also a lot of assignments, don't recommend.
Terrible experience. 16wk course compressed into 5wks, all self-taught, little & slow feedback, prof's power point notes worthless. Tested on things not in the book. Quizlet useless. May be different in person. This is the worse online class I've taken. Approx 5 chapters/wk. Lots of HW that didn't help. Studied my butt off for a lousy B. RUN.
Lazy lazy teacher. She just gives busy work and whines about people waiting until the deadline. I will never take her again.
I took her online for lifespan and while the class was interesting she made it suck. You are basically given 6 chapters to read with correlating assignments and test due every 4 weeks. This repeats itself until you finish the book. If you don't like to read then do not take this class. She does take some of the questions from the test in the book
I enjoyed the subject and the class. I had a small problem with my virtual child and she called the company and got it all taken care of. The power points were just a summary of the chapters so I just studied those and used google. Got an A in the class. All of my grades were done in a timely manner
Online class, need to be aware of due dates because she doesn't accept late work (none of my professors did in the Fall). I did my work as soon as she opened the folder and thought it was all pretty easy. Answered my questions pretty quickly. I had feedback on the items I got wrong on assignments except exams, just make an appointment to see them
I'm in her 8 week course now and haven't had one problem. Very organized, you know when everything is due, and I find the class interesting. She lets you move ahead if you want. This is the end of the 4th week and I'm about to take my final and turn in my project, which means I will be done at least 3 weeks early. I would recommend her to anyone
I took her for both PSYC2301 and 2314. PSYC2301 was a hybrid class and was great! I liked the fact that we had some face-to-face classes with her so if I didn't understand something she could show me exactly where I went wrong. PSYC2314 I took online and if I had questions, she emailed me with a quick response. Would take her again if I needed to
She is hard to get a reply from. She does have a somewhat clear syllabus but expect to be confused on how well you are doing because mainly the papers count more for your grade than the book work. Even her research papers have confusing rubrics.
I'm finishing her PSYC 2301 class right now and I will be signing up for her PSYC 2314 class. I followed her calendar in the syllabus to a T and have not had a problem thus far. The only people in my class not doing well are the ones who never show up except on test days. I personally like her funny stories and examples she gives us.
Real simple: exams 20% each (3), assignments 25%, and project 15%. Took 8 week online course and normal amount of work when considering you are taking the class in half the time you are supposed to (16 weeks). Got an A in the course and I actually finished it in 4 1/2 weeks because she lets you work ahead! Enjoyed the class
I thought the class was very organized especially when I compare it to other online classes I have had before. I just followed the class schedule and if I had a question then I emailed her. I always got a response within 24 hours if I emailed her outside of her office hours. I'm taking the 8 wk class and finishing it now with an A
Took her for intro 2301 in the fall and 2314 in the spring (1st 8 weeks). Loved both of her classes. Grades were always up to date, email response time was reasonable, instructions were clearly stated. I used my book, got As on the exams (they were pretty easy if you read through the power points). Highly recommended
I was kind of a stalker and emailed her with every small question I had, which she always answered. Very understanding and patient with me being a crazy student. I did NOT read every chapter, just did a summarized them. Got 2 A's and 1 B on the exams. One of the most organized classes I have had. Loved raising the virtual child.
i took her online, but my friends told me she teaches in the summer in person. they really liked her in person and recommended her to me. i couldn't wait until summer and had to take class this semester (spring) online. i enjoyed the class, learned a lot, really only studied the powerpoints and used google when i couldn't find an answer
Just finished her online class. Got an A, handful assignments per module, 3 exams, and 1 paper/project. thought it was a good class, i just followed the instructions and all was good. i could of finished the class early, but i was taking five classes and couldn't.
I received a B in her class, but it was my fault. I didn't do the virtual child and my paper could of been better. If I would of done those things, I would of gotten an A in the class. I thought the class was pretty easy. My advice, follow instructions, turn in work on time, do all the assignments, read powerpoints, quizlet helped with exams
her personality is a lot like mine so i liked her. she made the topics very interesting and relatable. the group work helped me understand better and it's a free 100 every time you get into groups. i studied the notes and the sections she told us to read in the book and did great on the 3 exams
had to take the class for my major. i had someone else for intro and did not like the class so i went into this class with an adverse attitude which quickly changed. very interesting class, gives real life examples, liked the free 100s here and there, just studied my notes, got an A
Just took her in the 8 week class Fall 2017. Loved the class, finished it in 6 weeks, graded my work in a timely manner, answered my emails within a reasonable time frame. All the answers for the test are in the textbook. The virtual child assignment was fun
I am so very thankful I took her online class! Learned a lot and would totally take her again if I needed anymore PSYC classes. I took her Intro class face-to-face and loved it so I took the lifespan class online. I just used the PowerPoints as a guide to my reading, all exam questions are in book, virtual child was different, but actually fun
Assignments were simple enough. follow the calendar because she doesn't accept late work, but gives you plenty of time to do the work. never thought i would have kids but now i have a virtual one. lol. found all answers to exams in textbook. got an A
Take her and you won't be sorry! GREAT professor! Had her face-to-face, great lectures, particaption free 100's all of the time, worth your time! 3 exams and a virtual child project which was actually fun. Works with students, very approachable!
Finishing up her class right now and I love her. As long as you do the work and turn it in on time, you will do great! I would highly recommend her class. She gives great lectures and only used the book on the two chapters we were on our own. If I needed another PSYC class, I would definitely take her again
She is very nice and caring. She responds to your emails so fast. But, If you have a life, children, husband, work dont take this class. Her assignments are extra!!! so much work and I hated the long crossword puzzles. Quizlet help a little but most answers are in the book. She gives very low points earned on assignments and the work is alot!
Liked her so much Im taking her again for the second psychology, lifespan, this summer. I was in a 16 week course and finished everything in the first 5 weeks (except the final). Just finished the final today. Got an A.
Taking her summer class. 8 weeks and only had 3 classes. Went on vacation 2 weeks straight and dismissed class early twice. Gives useless graded worksheets in class to make you show when she wants you to. Does not go over material needed to pass quiz and exams. Did not answer my questions completely when I emailed her. Hope I pass department final.
Finishing up her 8 week hybrid course now. Great class, great lectures, gives free 100's for showing up to class, 2 opportunities for bonus points, I got by without the book, her PowerPoints were enough for me. I will be signing up for her spring 2314 class.
I had no complaints in this class. When I sent her an email, I got a quick response. She kept us updated through the announcements. I bought the book, but didn't really use it. The PowerPoints were enough for me to get an A in the class. I really enjoyed the writing assignment.
Took her for the 1st 8 weeks HYBRID class. I thought it was a great class and didn't mind getting up early on a Saturday to go to class. Very interesting topics!!!!!! I'm thinking I'm going to minor in psychology now. EVERYTHING is spelled out in the syllabus and on Canvas. I always stayed after class just to talk to her.
She graded work and didn't give feedback to why you received the grade she gave you. You are not able to see the questions after you take the timed quizes and exams to see what you got wrong. No extra credit.
Attempted the 8-week summer course and kept up with readings and assignments. When asking for clarification of a question or subject matter I would email and get a one-line response. "The correct answer is b" That is not teaching and very unfair to the student.
Loved the subject, loved the class. Follow the instructions and you will do great! I thought she didn't give feedback at first, but it's in the comment section of each assignment. Test are timed, but I thought they were easy. Very easy to talk to, had a few virtual meetings with her to go over my exams. I would take her again
As long as you do the work, you will get a good grade. The worksheets helped me understand the topics better. If I got stuck, I emailed her and setup a WebEx meeting. Very helpful and feedback is in the comment section of the assignment (didnt see it at first). Due dates are on calendar and she sends out reminders. I didnt use the book, just PP
Well, I would say it is an easy A class, but what you need to do is to good at online searching. She is not gonna teach you anything. She lets you know all the assignments ahead, but there is no material from her. You will be asked to buy the book and use it for the homework. This course is just not worth what you pay for at all.
Finishing 2301 now and will be taking her for 2314 in the spring. I like how you can work ahead if you want. Yes, there were due dates, but plenty of time to do the work. She sent out reminders. I liked the project on psychological disorders, it was very interesting!!!! Got an A, watched her lecture videos on youtube for extra help
All due dates on calendar, did not buy book, PowerPoints and worksheets help me understand the material, plenty of time to take exams, answered emails quickly, sent out reminders, lets you work ahead, was very nice/helpful in our email exchanges, will be taking her again
online class due to covid, i used provided powerpoints instead of textbook, got an A, class was simple if you are able to turn stuff in on time, multiple-choice exams, feedback is left in comment section of assignment, organized, answers questions quickly, can work ahead, helpful and nice
I was going to receive a B in the class because I didnt do a few assignments, my fault. But she ended up dropping the lowest 2 assignment grades and offered bonus points 2 times. With that, I ended up with the A I needed. I didnt use the book, just the powerpoints she provided. Multiple choice exams. Highly recommend
In her streaming course this semester. All I can say is wonderful and so very helpful. Shes available before and after class, I always had questions. A few classes were optional Q/A sessions, with were great. Exams are online with plenty of time to complete. Overall great experience. Will take her for PSYC 2314.
Just finished taking her 12 week online streaming class. Was available to answer ALL of my questions. Didnt buy the book and just used the PowerPoints she provided. Exams and assignments were straight forward and I got an A in the class.
I personally didnt buy the book and did just fine in the class with the provided PowerPoints. Had a streaming course, will help with assignments during the stream, attendance not required, but it helped me understand concepts better, test are online and not done during the streaming class, will be taking her in fall for PSYC 2314 in streaming
Professor Dunn is the best! I literally am so glad I took her class shes so easy going and her lecture are fun but long depending on your schedule. If you need to take a class with psych TAKE HER. you have one project thats introduced to you at the beginning of class but due at the end of the sem. Shes great!
Professor Dunn teaches her best in this subject. If you attend class regularly and participate when asked to you receive a 100 on your in class work grade. She drops the lowest quiz grade and makes sure you do your best in her class and answers all questions with thorough explanation so you understand.
It was a hybrid class that ended up being more of an online class because of canceled classes. There were not enough chances to find out what you got incorrect on tests/exams so you could focus on those for the final. The exams did not match up with the text. Frustrating. I enjoyed the subject but felt like I taught myself.
Had her for a hybrid class. She wanted us to read the chapter before class, would explain the harder topics, and we would work in groups on our assignments...which as long as we logged in to class and participated, we got a 100 for that assignment. I personally enjoyed the setup of the class. Will be taking her again for 2314.
Finishing her hybrid class now. Signing up for the next psyc class over the summer. Exams/quizzes are online, most worksheets are done during class and everyone gets a 100 on them, some worksheets are done online, read the chapter before the lecture - makes it easy, quick in answering emails, just turn in work before due date and you are good
I am finishing her hybrid class now. Exams/quizzes are online, most worksheets are done during class. Read the chapter before the lecture - makes it easy. She quickly answers emails; turns in work before the due date, and you will be great. You can use notes for the worksheets and quizzes.
Very easy A, Professor Dunn made the class very easy. Took summer 5 week course and got an easy A. only one five page paper but she is easy grader. follow instructions. exam and quizzes all easy ( quizlet )
Took her 5 week summer course. She was extremely easy, most worksheets we did was in class with groups. You get 100s for participating. Only one major essay and powerpoint. Super easy graders and few tests/quizzes.
I took her for a Saturday class. We met online through WebEx from 8-9:30am. I loved that I could sit in bed and do the class. We had group work which if we participated that Saturday, we got a 100. As long as you follow instructions, turn work in before due date you are golden. The group work helped me understand the concepts which was bonus.
terrible in grading and response! no response, no explanation, no answers to your question! just in a a word or two! i took it for the Psychology 2301, which was a terrible mistake!
Finishing PSYC 2301 online, class organized, able to work ahead, answers my emails quickly, always has an up-to-date grade book, won't take late work BUT gives you plenty of time to complete assignments, and assignments are no hard. Will be taking her for PSYC 2314 in the Fall
She is one of the best professors I have had at HCC. She makes it clear at the beginning accept Late assignments; she gives you PLENTY of time. Her lectures are so enjoyable and she is way too Funny for her own good, missing them on any day would not feel right. Also, she is not a harsh grader at all. As long as you follow those instructions, 100.
I took two classes during the summer, which was overwhelming for me at first, this class was easier than my other one. Professor Dunn is well organized, and she does give you time to finish her assignments. You do have a final essay and PowerPoint which is not even bad. I definitely would recommend her to anyone taking psychology.
Great professor! Took her for my first 5 week summer class and her class was easy despite being fast paced.
I took her for the hybrid class, we met once a week. She gives great lectures and they're interesting. There is a book you'll be required to have. If you don't show up in class, you should be good as long as you read the textbook. If you're planning in taking psychology, I recommend to take her!!
Professor Dunn's PSYC2301 class is a breeze! She's super organized and funny, making the lectures enjoyable. Assignments are manageable, and she's a lenient grader. The textbook isn't required, and Unstuck AI was a big help for my study prep.
Currently in her hybrid psyc2301 class and I love her. She's so laid back and her lectures are not boring. I look forward going to her class each week. Has due dates but gives weeks to turn in assignments. I personally did not use the book. Class was required since I am a nursing major. Will be taking her for psyc2314
she is awesome you guys should take her for psychology, there will be quizzes, group work, power point and an essay to do in her class. she is very interesting
I took an 8-weeks course with her. Word counts don't even make sense for the questions asked. You can get away with not reading the book, so take her if you just want the grade. I wanted to learn something and was greatly disappointed. She gave no feedback at all, just grades returned. I could have just read the book on my own. Waste of money.
Professor Dunn made the class enjoyable. She is very knowledgeable and articulates all subject matter easily. All the homework is due online and she tells where you find notes and answers in the online textbook provided.
