Class could have been boring, but Professor adds character to her classes. Quick in responding the email questions. :)
She is cheerful and enthusiastic.
Professor Kraemer is a fantastic teacher, and is passionate and enthusiastic about her subject.
Jennifer is a great teacher. In her child development class she does 2 observations and also does one take home test. her lectures are fun and does real examples.
Very good teacher with many teaching styles! She gives you in class observations, and options on tests! Highly recommend!
Before taking the class I was completely uninterested, but I love it now. One of the best teachers you can have. She's very knowledgable and very nice and really cares about her students. It wouldn't be the same with another professor. Highly recommended!
I think it's impossible not to love this teacher. Jennifer is one of the nicest people I've ever met. Whether or not you're interested in child development, you'll have a great time in this class. She makes everything fun and interesting, and wants everyone to do well and makes that possible.
Lectures and activities really make you think, really engaging instructor.
GREAT TEACHER. I'VE TAKING OTHER CLASSES FROM HER BECAUSE SHE IS GREAT. GRADES SO EASY AS LONG AS YOU TRIED. DO ALL THE WORK AND HAND IT IN ON TIME AND I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU COULD GET A GAD GRADE. LOVED HER.
HOT! HOT! HOT! Angel in a dress.
Words that immediately come to mind when describing Jennifer Kraemer include genuine, insightful, thoughtful, intelligent, professional...if you want classes from someone who is very interested in your learning and in the quality of her teaching, take Jennifer! She's the best!
Best teacher i have ever had, really enjoyed taking the class wish i could take it again.
Great teacher, great class!
best teacher I have ever had!
AWESOME teacher, totally rocks. Great class, I loved it. It was the only class I would enjoy going to. I always wanted to be there.
wonderful, easy to get a good grade in her class while learning a lot of good information about the subject
Didn't learn a lot but can't argue with the fact that this is an easy professor with an easy subject. Take this course for a rest when you have other hard ones, class requires almost no time outside of class. I got tired of teacher's constant self-disclosure and anecdotes during lectures, but many people like that. Very nice person tho.
I've had 4 classes with Jennifer...great instructor. Knows her stuff. Keeps things interesting. Do turn- in all assignments, take notes and have fun. The tests are easy, as long as you study your notes, and read the book. YOU will learn in her classes.
seems like awesome person but biggest complaint is classes are very repetitive..lots of lectures¬es.didn't find myself very engaged. this is a class where you sign in every day. i do like how she grades tests though, allowing you to choose out of the questions you want to answer. be sure to keep an eye on syllabus, doesn't give much of a warning
Great teacher I learned a lot from her lectures.
Great class, even better professor.
Very nice person. Had her for a few classes and I enjoyed all of them.
Great teacher, get a lot out of the discussions and projects also. No wonder she is head of her department!
Took this class online. I really liked it. There were 2 quizes and 1 final. The only time i ever used the book was during the tests. 1 threaded discussion each week and a few projects throughout the semester. SUPER EASY! Got an A barely trying.. fast grading.... perfect class
OMG! Great class! Instructor handled sensitive/emotional issues (and obnoxious immature students) well. Lots of insight into various cultures; helpful reflection that would be useful to everyone. Highly recommend this instructor and this class!
i had professor Kraemer for two online ECE classes - both were wonderful experiences. She is really there to help students learn and succeed. Her assignments were interesting, completely accessable, and easy, and were designed to teach and be fun. i strongly recommend her classes! =)
Great teacher.
Wonderful Teacher, very clear and VERY nice, she want's to help in any way she can.
At first she seemed a bit aloof but she's actually very nice. The class itself was life changing and she was a great facilitator. Also a very fair grader!
I took this class online but I found her to be very available through e-mail. The assigned projects made the class an experience that I really grew from.
Awesome teacher, I've had seveal classes with her, and can't wait to take more!! I'll be sad when I transfer..
Very nice, good teacher, easy to understand. She wants to help you in any way she can.
Really soft spoken and relatable. My interest in this subject really grew after taking this class! Highly recommend taking her if you can!
She's great. A really nice person and helpful teacher. Highly recommend her online class. Easy to follow and a great way to learn the material. Loved that she answered emails so often! Really helps with online classes! Great teacher with interesting (and easy) class. Overall, highly recommended.
Make sure she knows who you are. she grades based on test and a huge chunk is based on your report so she grades that based on your overall niceness to her.
Prof. Kraemer is friendly, helpful, and above all fair. Ignore PYCH 400?s 11/23/11 post below, definitely not true. Must be from a disgruntled student who couldn't pass a fairly easy class. I?d recommend Jennifer Kraemer to anyone!
Don't take anyone else! She is awesome and super helpful. As long as you keep open communication with her she is willing to help you as much as she can. Weekly discussions (easy), 4 projects (fun and easy), and 3 exams (got an A on all of them). Highly recommend this class and this professor! I will be taking another class of hers next semester!
Child development online. Super easy, if you dont understand something she is very helpful and very nice. I would definitely recommend her!
For some reason she totally reminds me of mother Goose. She is the sweetest lady ever. She grades with an open unbiased mind. She loves what she does and loves her class. Very easy class if you follow along. Allows 3x5 notecard on tests. Overall great teacher. And lets you turn in late work (for 70%).
Great teacher! The best! Learned a lot from her lectures.
She is the nicest professor I have ever had. She is really clear. Tests are not hard if you take notes and listen in class.
great and easy way to get more ECE credits
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER! VERY CLEAR AND AS LONG AS YOU LISTEN AND DO THE WORK YOU WILL PASS WITH AN A
Awesome teacher. Very clear and direct. Also very kind and compassionate. Do the assignments and posts and its an easy A. Loved this class, I learned but didn't feel like I was even taking a class it was so simple. Almost like accidental learning.
A wonderful professor! She makes learning and working hard fun and interesting. She is a very approachable professor not like some I have had in the past. I wish most teachers were like her. I highly recommend her.
Very good teacher. She explains all assignments and expectations very clearly. Assignments are relevant with current information taught. If you do the papers and study for the exams you will pass this class with ease. I liked the research paper because I learned a lot from the research required.
She grades fairly and attendance is very important as your grades are based upon in class activity which is sometimes simply watching a movie. Tells funny stories that relate to the chapter/subject. Easy class if you do even minimal homework. Print up her lecture slides and use to take notes on, makes studying for tests super easy!Highly recomend!
Professor Kraemer is organized, fair, and keeps her online content engaging. 3 tests, no midterm or final, weekly discussion boards with EXTREMELY easy requirements for full points, and only 4 homework assignments the entire semester. It doesn't get much easier than that! I would take more classes from her in a heartbeat.
Super easy! Take this class if you need a couple more credits. I spent maybe fifteen minutes EVERY WEEK working on stuff for this class. I did all three projects in about 30 minutes, and received an A on all of them. Exams are very easy as long as you have common sense, and a good web browser. ;)
Jennifer is a wonderful professor who clearly cares about her students. I went in the class with no knowledge about kids and walked out as someone who thinks they finally understand how children work. There was definitely work, but all of it was very manageable in a short 8 week summer class. Take her if you need the class. You won't regret it!
Professor Kraemer is a wonderful person and sincerely cares about her students. she wants them to succeed but the only problem was that her lectures were so boring. i love this subject and i wish it had been more up beat instead of a power point every day. but if you like a nice teacher and an easy grade i would take her.
Professor Kraemer is a wonderful teacher. Her lectures can be a bit too long, but she posts them online so if you miss a day or two, you are still aware of what went on in class. The best thing she does is allow you to use a 3x5 card with notes on every single test, including the final. She is also very passionate about children!
really enjoyed her class! her H.W. assignments fun and are not out of the book.
Enjoyed her class! H.W. assignments are fun and not typical
She has been wonderful! She seemed to always be available and very compassionate. It's easy to learn from her bc she shares the love she has for ECE through her course. She always posted online articles on the side relevant to the course. Wish I was had her again next semester. Everything was always spelled out and easy to understand.
She's the best ECE Professor at FLC
Kraemer often says, "I'm done with stressing out my students." She is very nice & expects students to show up and pay attention in class. u should expect 5 tests. 1 interview paper. & some in class assignments. the tests are mc and she gives you more questions than points possible so you can choose what u want to answer. u can also use a notecard
Amazing class. I learned a lot of information that I was able to apply to my current job, even though I don't work in childhood education. I learned a lot of valuable skills, and appreciate all of the great help she gave me every time that I emailed her with a question or problem. Great lectures.
This class is easy but pretty boring. I took this because I thought it would be fun but its a lot of lecturing. Her tests are easy because she lets you use a notecard.
Jennifer is overall a great teacher! Lectures a lot based off of a powerpoint. Tests are easy, she allows a 3x5 card front and back. Only one long paper - 1800 words. But its very easy. I made up my entire paper and got an A. She says reading is essential for passing the test, but I've never opened the book and I have an A. I highly recommend.
This was such a enjoyable class. Her discussion boards were always personalized and fun to write and the four big assignments were interviews with babies, middle school kids and adults. This class taught me a lot of only required maybe 30 minutes a week of work. Take class with Kraemer!
Great instructor! The first essential thing a great professor needs is the passion for their students, and exuding kindness towards them. Jennifer has that! It's only proper to read your textbook, to study, and be a good student in return. May get away with only listening to audio lectures, but wont perform as well on tests. Highly Recommend!!!
Very easy online class with little work You can tell she really cares about what she is teaching.
Love this teacher! Very little homework. I'm taking her The child, the family, and the community online class next semester. She gives you positive feedback. I would recommend taking this teacher!
generally felt like I was only showing up just in case there was class participation that day. All lectures are online. She is a nice lady She just lacks the energy needed to keep class engaged if lectures are online and that's all she does than why show up? She also needs a policy in place for emergency I got sick went to ER and she marked me down
I thoroughly enjoyed this online class. We had weekly discussions that were thought-provoking, 3 tests, and about 5-6 papers. You will definitely read your textbook, but the book was great! I love Professor Kraemer, and have had her in person before as well. Will take her again if there are any available.
Very sweet and understanding in tough circumstances, relatively easy grader if the work is done, puts a lot of work into her class, cares a lot about her students, and encourages the best learning experience
I took her online child development class and I do not regret it! There is quite a bit of homework, but it wasn't difficult. It is very useful to read the textbook and the lecture notes. This will help with passing the exams. She is quick to respond if you have any questions, which I appreciated. Just always check canvas for the assignments.
Professor Kraemer is a very awesome teacher! She loves people. It is very easy to get an A in her class. If you need to take PSYC 372 or a Child Development class, just sign up for her class and you will pass! She creates a Study Guide for each Exam and the Exams are based on the info in the study guide and lectures that you can access via Canvas.
At the beginning of this class I thought "hey its going to be easy" but now I regret signing up for this class because I personally feel like she does not know how to explain the homework very clearly and I feel like she should help students out more and to help clarify the homework more.
Take her online ECE312 if you want an easy social/behavioral science. Discussions are usually personal applications/stories, tests are based off easy reading and there are plenty of related quizlets. There are a few projects but they are clear and you are given almost all of the semester to do them.
I've never met a professor more willing to go out of their way for their students. There was a big assignment for her ECE 312 class that I struggled with because I was going through a mental health crisis at the time. I talked to her about it during office hours - and she gave me a whole month of extra time to get the assignment done!
ECE314 online course includes responding to weekly discussions, 4 papers and 3 multiple choice tests. Informative and clear. HIGHLY RECOMEND
She is by far the best teacher I have ever had! Makes the class very interesting and the online discussions are always fun and great to interact with people in the class. Shes so passionate in her lectures and always sends an email after the week is over to follow up and finish talking about the topic.
Really great teacher. She cares about what she teaches. Make sure to do all of the work, and you should be set up for success. Would take her class again!
Such a sweet person! She genuinely cares about students and understands that life happens and students shouldn't be punished for things out of their control. Her lectures aren't very helpful because she goes really fast, but if you do the reading it's an easy a! you also get a 3x5 notecard for each test which is an awesome study tool!
Any ECE class I need to take, I take with Mrs. Kraemer. She's about the sweetest thing, and assignments are never too terribly difficult. For as long as you attend class, you should be just fine. She really does everything in her power to help you pass if you're struggling and willing to fix your grade.
Take her, she is an amazing teacher by far. She is so sweet and gives good feedback on every single assignment. Highly recommend taking any of her classes.
Really great prof. Gives good feedback of where you need to improve. Threaded discussions are interesting. One of my favorite class this semester. Take her if you can. I wish I could have met her in person. She seems really sweet and kind. All of the assignments are really helpful and interesting. I learned a lot from this class!! She is a gem.
If u r taking any early childhood class, she is the one u want 2 take! She always gives good feedback, grades quickly, & responds 2 emails quickly. I never met her in person but it shows that she cares & she makes u enjoy the class. The threaded discussions are really interesting. Sometimes, I thought the tests were tricky but overall a good class!
This class was an easy A if you put in the effort, but the papers were very tedious and time-consuming. This prof. gives good feedback, but when I emailed her about a legitimate concern she was extremely rude to me, which shows her fake character. Overall though, I did learn from this class and it was helpful, so I would still recommend it.
I loved Professor Kraemer's class! Her online lectures were interesting and helped me think in new ways. The assignments were meaningful, not busy work. When an issue came up in my life, she was responsive and compassionate and allowed me to submit an assignment late. Take Professor Kraemer! You won't regret it!
gives good feedback and grades quickly. Theres lots of reading each week, but other than that its a pretty easy class, would definitely recommend
My favorite teacher so far. Kraemer is wonderful, and her assignments are simple to navigate. One chapter a week was easy reading and so leaned the most out of all my classes. Assignments were fun and engaging. 10/10 would recommend.
I'm not sure if this is because I'm taking an online course but she's honestly terrible at getting back about any feedback on papers. She will leave comments but never respond to replies? She also provides example papers but shares them from a restricted address that isn't accessible through your Los Rios account so I can never see them.
Loved her! She actually gives good feedback and comments on your papers and discussion submissions. She is the ideal type of professor for Education courses, she has practical real-world experience and knows how to explain the content of the course. 10/10, I highly recommend her.
This was a great prof - she is caring, gives good feedback and the assignments are clear and manageable. There are small quizzes and discussions every week as well as some longer tests and papers. I really liked the observation papers because the videos were interesting. Really good prof for credit even if you aren't a psych major (like me).
