She is a great teacher who is very animated. The class is clear in expectations but is not easy. Most of us really enjoy the class.

Just a lecture class. 3 exams and thats it. Hard because you cover about 20 pages of notes on each exam.

This was a cool class. Used real forensic cases to show methods and worked with lots of specimens. Gave alot of feedback on projects and ways to help me learn the material. Use the websites she gives on Blackboard to help you study!!!!

The class was interesting. Tests over bones were annoying but rather easy. Playing with the bones was awesome. The projects were fun and interesting too.

She's so cute and funny. I love her.

She's a fun and exciting teacher, I just have a hard time with the pronounciation of some of the words, makes the class interesting, would not take if I did not need it.

I really enjoyed her class. The six cultural observations I had to write were tough. But they improved my writing skills and helped give me a better understanding of the world. The exams are tough and far between, so if you take her class study your notes a couple of times a week!

Great! She is a bit goofy but makes class fun. Every time I asked a question or went to her office she made me feel welcome. She made the subject fun with in class games (not just listening to her lecture). Tests weren't the easiest but I did pretty good by only studying my notes.

Most fun class I've ever taken. Got to work with lots of bones and stuff. Showed really cool cases from around the state. Makes me what to become a forensic scientist. A MUST TAKE!!!!!!

She took over for a failure of a professor who managed to get himself fired halfway through the term...great lady, made class a ball. Tests were difficult, not impossible, and she posted notes for us to study with - so it wasnt as painful to take the final. Would reccomend her, not a blowoff class but definitely a fun one!

this teacher is very good but u have to stay on top of ur work and the groups projects are very fun and intresting. do take her as a forensic teacher she is very fun and makes lectures seem like funny conversations

By far the worst teacher I have ever had at Mott Community College. You will learn absoloutley nothing in that class I worked my butt off and only got a "C" and I am a Honor student.She teaches as if you're supposed to be forensic experts when obviously if we were we wouldn't be in the class.

I thought she was a very nice person and she seems to love what she does-which is always a plus in teaching! :)

Ms. Fillion is one of the best profs at mott. you have to work to get a good grade in the class but she does not make it impossible. There is a large workload but if you keep up with assignments and attend lectures and study you will be fine. It is not a blowoff class. She expects you to work hard but in the end you learn loads.

THIS IS A GREAT CLASS TAUGHT BY AN EVEN A BETTER INSTRUCTOR. You must attend class and take good notes, but she gives you reading questions to help you understand the material. I am an average student and I got an A, but when I had questions I just asked and she would help. She grades the way she should if it's wrong it's wrong. Just study!

Any negative comment is probably from someone that did not take notes, answer reading questions she gives, read the book, or study. She is a GREAT PROFESSOR and really knows her stuff and has a realy love for it. But she gives you everything you need to succeed in this class. By the way the list above should be done with all classes, right?

Forensic anthropology is not like CSI! If you know this, it will help. Most people will have to read all the material and study a lot. You are required to know all the bones of the body and the features on the bones. Not too much homework, and you know when all the quizzes are in advance, def not a slacker class though. Pay attention, take notes.

It was the hardest class that i took since i started college. Way to much work. You have to do unit reviews which where pointless, then on top of that you had power point and a paper they where all due back to back. You had t read at least tw to three chs a night. Very demanding class and very time consumming. IT was a fun class but alot of work.

Great teacher! Her lectures are interesting with very organized notes. If you're interested in this field then you should know that it isn't easy! Don't join if you want a blow off class where you can slack and get a good grade. This IS a competitive field and it's nice learning from someone who's knowledgeable and enjoys what they do.

Fun class and she does explain notes and chapters well. Just a lot of information to take in so I would only take this class if you are really interested and have time. She is funny and I think everyone really likes her personally, just a lot of work.

I love the class! She is such a great teacher, the class is just very demanding and you have to be willing to set aside hours to study. But if your interested you don't really mind it. I look forward to taking other classes with her.

Good teacher and very funny and tries to keep the class interested. It wasnt easy though. A lot of stuff to cover and very demanding. If you take one of her classes just make sure you have plenty of time to put towards studying and homework!

One of my favorite teachers at Mott! Very funny and you can tell she enjoys what she does, which makes it so much easier for the class to enjoy as well. Serious and industrious students should have no problems as far as homework is concerned. I plan on taking her again!

Loved this class! Love her teaching style. My Favorite teacher at Mott! This is not an easy class, but if you have an interest in Anthropology and show up and do you work, you should do just fine!

I am now a grad student. This college class was the very first I walked into knowing I wanted to pursue a career in anthropology. That being said, the course was hard, but if you listened and took notes, it was simple enough. My class at UM-Flint in skeletal anatomy led to very little studying because of this class.

Lots of in-class projects, lots of power points., LOTS of memorization and spelling counts. Hands-on learning with real and plastic bones + a facial reconstruction. Passed with a 4.0

Great professor, truly knows her stuff. I find her teaching very interesting however the textbook is online and in hindsight is a great idea but because she is still working it out she wont post most the reading until the week you need the reading so you have readings on top of lectures on top of homeworks on top of more readings all online.

I genuinely enjoyed this class throughout first semester. She explained things very well so it was easy to understand. Overall just stay with your notes and youll do really good in her class!

Fillion is amazing. She's extremely knowledgeable and qualified. On top of that, she's nice and funny too. Her class was interesting, but it is HARD. It doesn't seem like it at first, but it gets there eventually. You have learn every bone in the body and more. If you're not willing to put in 10+ hrs studying a week, this is not the class for you.

Professor Fillion was great! I learned so much and loved the class. My only piece of advice is that if youre not big on reading, then this might not be the professor for you. Part of the weekly assignments includes a HEAVY amount of reading. The reading is required as the professor will pull questions from it for quizzes/discussions!
