This class is a good introduction to communication, and you will learn some very useful information for your personal life. If you do the work, and on time, it is an easy A. She wants her students to succeed, and to that end she gives two chances to take ALL exams/quizzes.

Com230 was a fun class to take. You are broken into your own groups which is nice since you reply to the same classmates instead of having a full class to reply to. Dr. Jen did a great job sending reminders on when homework is due and explained exactly what the criteria is to get full points. I would definitely take this class again.

Super great teacher, teaches you good skills that you can use outside of her class such as how to write good discussion posts and how to give constructive criticisms. Felt like what I learned in her class will help in my career. As long as you do the work and do your posts it is not hard to get a good grade in this class.

I think she was a good teacher. The class was mostly easy if you read through everything and did the homework. She does not give a lot of homework but it will take some time and effort to complete. The test were easy and she would give you the chance to take it again if you did not do well. I highly suggest her.

I enjoyed Dr. Jen's class very much. She gives very clear instructions and makes it easy to get a good grade if you are willing to put in the work. The class content was very relevant and able to be immediately in both my personal and professional life. I would absolutely take another class from this professor.

funny, kind and understanding professor. To be successful in this class, get used to working hard on the group discussions, I would recommend doing extra credit for at least one or two of the weeks, just to boost your grade. The discussion instructions can be a bit confusing, especially at first, (Read the What is substantive post thoroughly) !)

Dr. Jen was an incredible teacher. Quite frankly, I hadn't been doing my work to the extent, she gave me plenty of warning and explain to me what I could do to help my situation. Overall, she gives absolutely excellent feedback and she responds very quickly. All of her feedback is extremely- and when I mean, extremely, I mean extremely thorough.

Dr. Jen created a super organized course and enhanced it with really detailed feedback. The content was also super engaging and thorough. I really appreciated that all our readings where available for free. I will say that some of the assignment descriptions where a little confusing and redundant. Discussion posts are the main portion of the class.

Claims the class is a “safe place” then in the next breath brings a student to tears when they try to participate. Class is easy but be warned, “professor” is not caring, supportive, helpful, or even an effective teacher. Find anyone else. I'm not sure if I will make it to the end of the semester…

Did Prof Townsley write all these reviews or have her students do so for extra credit? Claims to create a safe place for students but makes them cry in the next breath and lashes out at everyone. Class is super easy but not worth having to deal with this prof. Do yourself a favor and take anyone else.

She does an amazing job organizing the work and offering help, she's consistent with feedback, offers opportunities for extra credit, and provides more than enough time to complete the assignments (usually drops sunday and closes saturday).
