Dr. Siegert was tough, but fair. She posted lecture slides on the course website. Provided practice quizzes for every chapter, and always included several of these questions on exams--so definitely study them! You will have to do a lot of work, but if you come to class, keep up with the material, & put in the effort, you will do well.

she seems to really care that students understand material, but also expects you to "put in the effort." gives lots of chances to earn bonus points (but not easy). does some group activities that are helpful. test questions are multiple-choice, but you need to do MORE than just memorize your notes. she expects a lot, but you will LEARN a lot.

Dr. Siegert is an amazing professor that actually cares about the students she teaches. She is able to break down complex concepts during lectures and is always willing to be accessible outside of class! She is concerned more about her students actually learning and participating than just regurgitating facts from the textbook.

Amazing, gives great feed back and honestly does try with the class. Lecture is on point with PowerPoints and nothing said is useless. The kind of professor you wish you had in 400 level courses.

The lectures are long and sometimes boring, but she's a great teacher. I've learned a lot with her and improved my study habits for tests because of this class.

Siegert is one of the best professors at Campbell. She really cares about the students and wants them to understand the material. She has student-led reviews at night every monday going over the lecture and she has reviews for every test. these are what really helped me so GO!! I know some do not do well in the class but if you study u pass

Dr. Siegert genuinely cares about her students learning the material and is always willing to help students understand in any way she can. She posts tons of review material for each unit, and the tests are extremely similar to the review material. Overall, a good professor who teaches the material well without making the course too difficult.

Siegert was a great biology professor. She taught off of PowerPoint slides and posted the lectures online for students to access later. There was no homework or papers in the class just tests and quizzes. She dropped our lowest quiz grade and was available for assistance outside of class. I would definitely take her again.

I LOVE Dr. Siegert!! She is very accessible outside of class, thoroughly loves the material she teaches, and wants her students to understand it as well. She is such a nice person and makes lectures interesting and interactive. Her power points are very helpful for studying and she adds extra to them to make them interesting. Utilize ALL resources!

The lecture was a little fast pace at some points. I highly recommend printing out the PowerPoints that she uploads and look over them before class so you have an idea of what the class will be about. GO TO THE TUTOR SESSIONS BEFORE A QUIZ!! They help so much and KEEP all old tests to study for the final!!

Dr. Siegert is one of the best professors I've ever had! It's so sad to see her leave but I genuinely wish there were more professors like her. Dr. Siegert not only helped students understand the material and I actually enjoyed it (unlike certain bio professors). She was always willing to stay behind to discuss various topics with students as well.

I started the course with a 37% on the first exam, I had no idea how to study but after meeting with her and using the textbook I improved a ton and made a 97% on my last exam. The book is really helpful, more than the lecture in my opinion.
