Grades easy on papers. Final and pop quizzes are from her lectures. If you take good notes you will do well. She is a little insecure & opinionated, but fair. Film clips are interesting.
A retarded monkey could ace her class with any effort and regular attendance. Not a nazi like Moody, grades and quizes are very easy.
Quite possibly the easiest class I have taken at UVSC. You must attend, but classes are very interesting. You won't have to watch any R rated film like you would in other professors classes--like Moody.
Very easy class, but she was very very rude to a "slow" individual in my class. If you get on her bad side, you're stuck there, and she'll make you look and feel stupid in front of the class.
She treated out class like we were in elementary school. She lectured us on being "rude" when we simply asked questions. You can easily get an A, just don't talk or you'll risk offending her, and go to class and take good notes every day.
I agree with what everyone else says. Just so long as you go with the sponge mentality and take notes without saying anything, you'll do fine and learn a lot. I was on her good side, but I can imagine how having her not like me would be bad. Just say you like Alfred Hitchcock and you're good.
Seemed condencinding towards class.
She hated my friend right off the bat for no reason. Consider what you're saying before it comes out of your mouth or else you'll be made fun of. I was so glad we didn't have to watch anything uncomfortable! I didn't learn anything new really, although I went into the class with hardly any experience. It's fun watching movie clips!
DON'T tell her you rented a movie for the assignment you will get her mad. Papers are EASY just do them, and take notes and you will be fine.
She's kind of a crazy lady but I absolutly loved her class!! She's knowledgable and has experiance in film and as long as you write the papers and take notes her class is pretty easy. I learned a lot and she got me interested in continuing to study film. Oh and she's only condenscending to people that ask for it.
she really is very condescending. she is pretty proud of herself for knowing film, and it's true if you go the class isn't hard, but i really woudn't recommend her at all. there's no pleading your case for antyhing...her way or the highway. she honestly drove me insane. i'm not exactly sure why but...she made me not want to be alive anymore. weird.
This is a really easy class. All you have to do is watch the movies, go to class and take notes. The only test is the final, and it comes directly from her lecture notes. She takes attendance every once in a while, so you have to be there. Other than that, you write 4 papers and pretty much if you turn them in on time- you get full credit.
She's a nice lady, but remember, her time is HER time. Don't talk during class or she'll call you out on it. Pretty neat class, not too hard. Writing assignments were easy, and you get to watch movies! The major downfall of the class is the final is the ONLY test in there. You have papers here and there to write, and random small quizzes, no sweat.
Easy class, She is very nice. She is a little particular an some things. She wants all to succeed and most do. Ive heard shes way better (easier) than others.
I took the online class. It was a very easy class but I learned a lot. I didn't need the book because all the reading material was online. There were 15 chap with quizzes. You reviewed 3 performaces and one written work. The teacher was great! Very easy class and wonderful teacher. I'd recommend this class to anyone.
Robinson's is one of the worst classes I have taken in my college career. She is condescending in her lecture and takes it extremely personal when undevided attention is not given. Role is taken daily in a matter more rediculous than high-school and students are treated as if they are 10 years old. I love film and found myself hating every second
This class is VERY easy. However, the teacher is about as warm as an iceberg. She tends to get offended easily and seems insecure. If you want an easy A and can handle somene who talks down to you and treats you like you are in the 7th grade, then this is the class for you.
I am in my final year here, this class is hands down the worst of my college career. The professor seems to have little knowledge of the subject matter and is rude, boring, and not to mention takes personal offense to everything. If you like so called 'professors' more dramatic and senseless than a middle school teen...take this class.
Ok this class is a joke but ehhh who wants to paint. Anyhow you dont need a book, but you need to take notes. Papers you can do in 5 mins really easy. You have to go to class. She is a little crazy at times, wants all your attention. She does whatever the dean tells her. If you want an easy art class this is your best bet.
This class is easy, There is no textbook, no tests, and only a few quizzes, there is a final, and a couple of assignments, it is a great class for art credit, if you don't feel like taking any others. You will get an A if you do the papers, and cram before the quizzes. An easy class, but you are treated like a elementary student.
She does well teaching film. She gives you a lot of basic terms and presents them in a way that is easy to take notes. Her tests aren't too hard if you study the notes. She can seem a bit abrasive to some people, so don't plan on talking in class, or texting a lot.
I took online theatre from Prof. Robinson and it was really easy. It didn't take long, and everything was well explained. The final was extra credit, so that was nice. I got an A, and lots of others did too. A great class to take online!
Jill is a fabulous teacher to get if you are going into film. She's not a bad teacher to have if you're just taking the class for a general. She knows her stuff and she's not just another teacher recycling textbook information, she has had real involvement with film production. I recommend her. No book.
Online class. Text not required. All the information needed in online lessons. Quizzes directly from information in lessons. Need to go to at least 3 live performances and watch a Shakespeare Play done on film. Then complete the four assignments. If you complete the work on time, you'll get an A. Allows you to finish early, too.
The class i took was online, I don't know what she is like in person but online she is a useless teacher and for some reason very hostile towards students whenever they ask questions. She treats you like you are in grade school. The only answer i saw her give all semester on the bulletin board was "You should read the lesson better!)
She's not a nice person, it's like she's bitter at the world that she didn't make it into big-time theatre and has to teach it instead, and she takes it out on her students. I wouldn't recommend trying to email her on any grading that she did that you thought was wrong. She has no heart to say she was wrong.
If you say something negative about George Lucas she will hate you! Show up late to class she will stop the class, roll her eyes and look at the clock. You must attend, you must take notes to pass quizzes. There were five questions on the final about all the movies in the lab. Other than that her class is kind of interesting and very easy.
I took this class online and loved it! Everything is crystal clear in the syllabus from the beginning. The only possible way you could get a bad grade would be if you didn't get assignments in on time -- and you know the due dates well ahead of time. It really made me appreciate theatre more. I would highly recommend it. Fun and easy.
The class is easy. Jill is by far the worst teacher I have ever encountered. She highly opinionated and seems quite bitter especially towards the male gender. Very condescending and rude. She will be more than happy to waste your time and money ranting and raving about cell phones in the class room. Sorry I forgot we were in college. Worst teacher.
I loved this class and Professor Robinson. Honestly people if a professor tells you at the start of the semester to not use your cell phones in class, why would you be complaining? She wants attention on her because she does everything based on her lectures. Grow up and get out of high school. Don't miss a single day and do the work. Awesome class!
Her class is super, super easy. I took it online and was able to complete the course in a month. Sometimes she can come across as rude when she responds to questions and things, but that may be because its all on e-mail. Great class, though.
Easiest class I ever took - take it online, it's pretty much a guaranteed A. The professor come across as super rude. The final is extra credit... it's a joke, but an easy way to get fine arts credit.
She is possibly the rudest, grumpiest and most condescending human being I have ever met. She shuts you down if you have the slightest hint of not understanding the material, and I have even witnessed her stating "I am not going to answer your question" to another student. The class it'self is cake. She is not cake. There you go. Life Cereal.
Easiest class ever!!!this class is a joke I can't believe they make us take it.
Most boring class I've ever been in! She's a jerk. She reads everything, jokes and all for the class lecture. Terribly dull, she gives the worst attempts at jokes. She gets defensive about stupid things, such as George Lucas (Apparently she worships the man, no mocking him in her class), absolutely no talking. Unpleasant experience.
Online and ridiculously easy. easiest class I have taken. Papers and discussions are given 100% if you meet the word count requirement. She is blunt and may come off rude but rightly so because this class is a joke. Attend 3 plays/musicals out of class is about as hard as it gets. Book not required, reading material is all online, quizzes are easy
Online and ridiculously easy. easiest class I have taken. Papers and discussions are given 100% if you meet the word count requirement. She is blunt and may come off rude but you'll be fine if you NEVER SPEAK. Attend 3 plays/musicals out of class is about as hard as it gets. Book not required, reading material is all online, quizzes are easy
Condescending, arrogant, impatient,self righteous,uncaring,rude,opinionated,and of course, faultless. George Lucas is not a diety, he's had plenty of box office flops. There are plenty of people that attritube their success to a mentor, she will never be one of those people. As a representative of UVU, she is an embarrassment.
A lot of other reviewers seam to be complaining about how unreasonable this teacher is. I took the online class. I interacted with her over email on many occasions. She was very reasonable, fast response, good feed back on assignments. Good movies. use terminology on papers you will always get %100. Overall a good class.
The Class itself is interesting, fun and you'll learn an appreciation to film thats guaranteed. but as for the professor she's self centered, bitter, tries too hard to be cool. i feel treated like a highschool kid. we're all adults i dont think cellphones are a problem theres no use to put a rule in it. all in all yes i learned,but i didnt like her
Intro to Film ONLINE was the absolute EASIEST class I have EVER taken! Fun, interesting, easy, and fascinating. Jill is clear in her instructions and grades way fair. This class is an EASY A. NO textbook, it's all online. Quizzes, discussions, occasional papers, that's it! There are weekly deadlines, but they are NOT hard to do. Take this class!!!
Take this course it's really easy. Read a couple slides, watch a movie, and write a small paragraph about it. Never received anything lower than 100 percent on all my assignments and quizzes. Final is optional. Quizzes are closed every Sunday night so procrastination is sometimes a problem. Teacher was helpful the one time I emailed her.
Jill is an awesome teacher. She will tell you not to buy the book with good reason... you wont need it. If you have no interest in theater, you won't leave her class with out an interest. Her classes are easy, fun, and engaging. She may have somewhat of an attitude but I figure that's to be expected of some one in theater. Take her class.
Very easy class. She puts all the notes online so you don't even have to take any in class. There is no textbook, so that is nice. Easy quizzes each week along with a discussion of the weekly film. Basically if you do them, you get an A. Can't have more than 6 absences though.
Honestly this class was a joke. SO easy. We would watch movie clips every day, and Jill would give us the exact answers for our weekly 10 question online quizzes. There were a couple of 750 word reflection papers, but they were easy. Jill is an easy grader. Strict on attendance & phones though.
The class is an easy 'A' if you just do the work. The teacher doesn't seem to realize that her students pay for the class and that she shouldn't be a jerk to them. Read a section, watch a movie, write something about the movie. No late work, no exceptions, not even family emergencies and not even 5 minutes late. Good class, rude teacher.
SUPER easy class, finished within a few weeks no problem. Just watch a movie, take an easy quiz, then either post a short discussion or write a response paper. As with everyone else that's commented, she is EXTREMELY snappy and rude. I asked one simple question early on for clarification, and I got response just asking if I read the material.
She's not very approachable nor is she open to questions in general. If you reference a film outside of discussion, she will be very upset and angry. I ended up dropping this class because I felt so uncomfortable and anxious. If you don't mind intimidation and constant scolding, the class work is easy.
Easy class, snippy professor. Nobody talks in class because she's extremely condescending if you don't give the EXACT answer she wants. Cell phones are a BIG no-no. Very easy class, though, and she posts the textbook online (which is basically a lesson plan for her lectures), so quizzes are a breeze. All assignments are done on Canvas.
She is so charming and funny. I never wanted to miss class because it was so cool. Loved her teaching style.
Sometimes 45 minutes is too long to listen to her.
Not a good teacher, impossible to talk to, she is condescending and she has this God complex that she thinks her opinion is the only one that matters. Her lectures are VERY dry and she will often go off about how she is "this amazing play writer" Easy class attendance in MANDATORY to pass but very boring to listen to take this class online.
This was a super easy class. As long as you show up you will pass. There are weekly quizzes and discussions but they are super easy and all done online. A couple papers that you have to write about plays as well. She is super condescending and hard to talk to. Very rude to students who don't share the same views as her. But super easy A.
Seriously the easiest class I have ever taken. Weekly 10 question quiz that comes right from the readings, watch a movie (which are actually interestingfunnymeaningful) and then post a discussion. The final is 30 points of all extra credit that you won't need to take bc you'll have a A. If you don't get an A, there is something wrong with you..
This class was incredibly easy. Many times, I would remember at 10:30 on Sunday night that I forgot to do the homework, and finish it before 11:00. There is a 10 question quiz on a certain film topic (all the answers are in bold in reading modules), and short papersdiscussion entries on a movie once a week. Super easy fine art credit.
Took Robinson's class online. As long as you leave plenty of time to watch the clips and movies and take notes, you will be just fine. NOTE: She loves Star Wars and Harrison Ford! Mentioning that you do too - on the discussion board - is helpful! I learned a lot about film that I did not know. We did NOT use the disc - return for a refund!
Don't ever speak out of turn, and NEVER EVER take your phone or any other electronic out. She calls them toys. She taught me more than I've ever known about movies, if you want to be in film, she will give a basic overview of everything you need to know. Overall, don't rub her the wrong way, and you'll enjoy the class. I laughed a lot.
The online class is super easy a movie and quiz due every week. As long as you take the time to take the notes and do the discussions which are easy this class is golden. Learned a lot.
Most patronizing professor i have ever had. She targets students who's opinion is different than hers. Since this is a beginning film class, students asked simple questions and were met with condescending answers and belittling side comments. This class is easy to pass if you can endure her better-than-you attitude and disrespect for students
Jill Robinson was a okay professor, she is very strict on what she says, so any excuse won't work if you haven't turned in an assignment. Class can't be skipped, otherwise you won't pass. Cell phones and laptops were banned in her class room, if you were caught with one out she took points away from you. Easy class, quizzes are right from notes.
If you're taking this class for fine art credit, do it from Jill! I took this class to balance out with the rest of my classes. There was a weekly quiz on the lectures and we watched movies and did 100+ word discussions for homework. I didn't really care about this class, but it got me my fine art credit. No textbook involved!
This is an easy online class, but she is not a nice person. As long as you don't ask her for help at all you should be fine.
Definitely an easy A! The Theater department itself only allows you 5 absences before fail. The lectures can all be found online, and you can copy straight from there for 10/10 on all the quizzes. There was one movie a week, and a paper/discussion on it. The final was all extra credit, and online!
Good. I retained much of what she taught. She expects ALL of your attention during class, so don't even think about working on other homework. Classes are a lecture by her, and then homework is one movie a week with a short, simple, personal interpretation of something. We got a few 'library days' which were helpful & the final is extra credit!
I loved her class. If you follow her very simple easy rules, this class is an easy A. And you'll love it cause it's watching awesome movies! But seriously, if you can't follow her simple rules like no cell phones or laptops, then you'll have a long semester.
Ms. Robinson is an interesting teacher. On the first day of class, she tells you everything you would expect from her through the semester. Listen to her carefully. She doesn't like to repeat. She can be nice to you if don't argue with her or disagree with her. Easy A if you complete all assignments on time and don't skip class.
She's a pretty terrible person. The atmosphere is terrible.. everyone is scared to talk or make any noises. If you do, she'll catch you and terrorize you. Super easy class. She gave a ton of extra credit. Extra credit final. Just show up, do the homework, and don't talk... ever. Don't even make a sound. Put your phone super far away.
Super easy class! Show up, take notes, pay attention to the clips shown, and you'll pass the quizzes. You watch a movie every week and do a discussion or reflection. She does extra credit to help cover a discussion or quiz you may have missed. Final is extra credit. So you can take it or not, completely up to you. Also dont come into class late!
Prof. Robinson is the professor that doesn't understand people just take her class for the art credit and not because they are interested in film. She is pretty rude and you better not use your phone in class because she will lose it. Notes are all online (don't bother writing stuff down). Didnt watch a single film and did fine. Class is easy thoug
Very rude and belittling to students. She acts like she's better than you, you shouldn't talk in her class at all, keep your cell phone put away, and just keep your mouth shut. She reads the lectures off of the notes online. Don't ask questions because then she'll think you're arguing with her and she'll put you down.
Easy class, she's got an attitude. Watch the movie, give feed back about it. Pretty easy A.
I got in car accident missed 3 days and she failed me. I had an a and only had 5 classes left. She's very disrespectful. Yells at students. Don't recommend at all.
If you show up and watch the films, you'll get an easy A. You are able to use your notes on all of the quizzes and the films you watch are super easy and fun.
She was a great teacher. She demands respect in her classroom, meaning no cell phone, no being late, and no stupid questions. (you will get chewed out) If you just respect her and come to class it's the easiest A ever. Her lectures are really interesting and she explains things really well. Overall a great teacher!
Took this online over the summer, and it was really easy. Do a lesson on canvas, watch a movie, take a short quiz (multiple choice), and write about the movie. One lesson due each week. Final also on canvas. Very strict about grammar, and wont let you turn in late work. All on canvas, so its open note/Google.
This class is super easy. Ms. Robinson is very strict. If you talk or take out your phone you will regret it. You will be assigned a to watch a movie each week. You will also write a short response on the movie and take a 15 point quiz comprising what you learned in class and what happened in the film. Definitely take this for your GE art credit
EXCELLENT online class! I loved how she allowed her students to go ahead and at their own pace. TAKE THIS CLASS!!!
She has a very odd sense of humor, and some of what she teaches seems to be more opinion than anything. Dont use your cell phone in class because she will call you out and ridicule you in front of the class. Still a really good teacher though and the class is very easy! You really only have 1 assignment and 1 quiz a week and both are easy!
Follow her classroom rules and its an easy class. Watch the movie and do the quiz and the response and you'll get an A. It was interesting it learn about the different aspects of film.
although she was cool to talk to, really demeaning and condescending. I understand she has stuff on her plate, but that's no reason to be rude to your students. She has a ton of passion for film, but honestly, not convinced that she's passionate about teaching itself, but maybe we caught her on a bad semester. easy class tho and great material.
She will not help you, even if you have special accommodations.
Overall easy class. Professor communicated well in my case.
Took this class online and it was pretty chill. Just watched a movie, wrote an explanation on it + took a quiz every week (and a final exam at the end). I would definitely recommend taking it online, I enjoyed that I could work ahead and she laid out all her expectations at the beginning of the semester.
Very easy class easy B. You have to show up and shes super boring and most sleep through her class. I would take it from her again to get the easy grade for the gpa. Dont expect to be fond of the professor and do your work. You have to watch one movie a week with a quiz
This class is pretty easy if you stay on top of it. I took THEA1023 online and just had to watch a movie every week and read a small lecture then take a test on those. She doesn't accept late work which really hurt my grade because I missed one quiz and it dropped me about 30%. Some of the quiz questions are a little deceiving as well.
I took the online version of this class and it was literally the easiest class I have ever taken. All I had to do was take the notes for the week, watch the assigned movie, and take a quiz. That's it. Not to mention the final is not only optional but extra credit.
If you behave well in class and do the work (which isn't much), this class will be a breeze. Just watch a movie every week and write a paper on it. The papers are either 100 or 500 words, depending on the week. Jill knows her stuff, and if you pay attention, you'll learn a lot.
Pretty easy online class, you have to watch the movie and read the lesson for that week then take a quiz. The quizzes can be tricky as some of the questions are tricks, and shes not willing to discuss why certain answers are incorrect. As long as you do the work you should get an A.
I don't know how the professor is because I never needed to contact her. But you only watch a movie then take a quiz every Sunday by 11:59. While taking the quizzes just make sure you've paid attention and have the notes open and you'll receive an A. The final is also optional for those that need extra credit.
This was the easiest online class ever. Every week you do the readings, watch a movie and take a quiz. That's all. The final exam was not required, but taking it gives you extra credit. I highly recommend taking this class.
Jill's class is interesting and she has good taste in movies. But, she's very condescending. In her eyes there is no reason for you to skip class (even if it's an emergency) and she will call you out in front of the whole class if you miss a day. She made a point to make me feel hated all semester. Typically teachers like me and I'm an A student.
Professor Robinson is a horrible teacher. She tries to "ethical" by not letting you retake or redo assignments missed. There are only a couple good movies and other than that weird ones. She gives hard quizzes that include a couple other movies as well not just the one assigned for the week. Pretty much just doesn't want to help you succeed.
Jill's one of the worst teachers at UVU, and that says a lot. Each week you have a lesson, watch a movie, and take a quiz. She asks super trivial things about the movies assigned "so no one can google it", but she's just lazy. Some of her quiz answers weren't 100% correct. Either watch the movie twice or rewind a lot so you don't miss answers.
All you have to do is read a lesson, watch a movie and take a quiz each week. pretty easy. the final is extra credit.
I reached out to her a few times in regards to this course: she was very rude in responding. The sad thing is is that i think i could have achieved an A in this course if i had another professor. I never rate my professors, but i just wanted to let you all know. Extra credit is nice in this class though, but quizzes are poorly worded as well.
Frequently asks trick questions on the quizes. I once wrote her and email regarding one of the questions. In her reply she admitted the questions could have been anwsered either way but would not change the score, told me if i wanted the points to do the final for extra credit. Almost every quiz has questions that could be anwsered multiple ways.
Easiest class on planet earth. All you need to do is 20 minutes of reading about a certain aspect of film making, watch the movie for the week, take the quiz. The final is extra credit also so basically if you do the stuff and pay attention, you'll get over 100%.
This was a very easy class. I didn't need to contact the professor, it's just one lesson and movie a week due Sunday night. I suggest taking a lot of notes and studying really well before taking the quizzes each week, because there are no other assignments in that class. Overall, easy and fun class!
This class is exactly what you think it would be. Each week the only assignment is to take notes, watch a movie, and take a quiz. The quizzes are 20 questions in 10 minutes. You definitely need to watch the movie to get the questions right, no googling here. But the class is not bad at all and the movies are usually pretty good (except for a few)
Grade is basically based on weekly quizzes. Pretty straight forward class. You read the notes on the subject, watch a couple of video clips, watch a movie, take a quiz! Movies are all very interesting and fun to watch! Quizzes are timed though which can make it challenging. Overall, would take again! :)
I enjoyed the wide variety of films we watched in this class! Extremely easy as long as you watched the movies. Go at your own pace and so you can be done in a few weeks if you want. Awesome class!
This class was insanely easy. All you have to do is watch a movie and take a quiz each week. But while it was easy, the teacher was awful. She didn't grade herself and let canvas do everything. She wouldn't answer questions students had. She also only gave 10 minutes for the 20 question quizzes each week!
This class was awesome. Grade is based on reading a lecture, watching film clips, watching a movie, and taking a quiz each week. The lectures were interesting and the movies were all different varieties which was fun. The final is optional and is worth extra credit. You can do assignments ahead so you could finish this class quickly if you wanted.
Taking THEA1023 summer semester. Easy class if you watch the weekly movie and pay full attention to it. Weekly quizzes with 10 questions from the movie and 10 from reading on canvas. VERY EASY TO GET 100% on all of these quizzes if you try. With some effort and 3 total hours a week (including time of watching the movie) you'll get an A. Take her!!
This class was terrible don't take her. I am a senior with 3.8 GPA and a 4.0 science GPA. I have taken some very hard classes . You have to read teachings each week, then watch short clips and watch a movie each week at the end of the week you take a 20 question quiz and have 10 minutes. The questions are like " what color shirt was he wearing?"
TAKE THIS CLASS. Do the reading, take notes, especially the words in bold, pay attention through out the movie, especially to the concept the reading is linked to. You can use your notes on the quizzes, the movies are fun to watch, plus you can work ahead at your own pace. Such a fun class, especially if you love movies.
This was the easiest class taken at UVU. Don't mind negative reviews, if you read the 2 pages or even less weekly, watch the movie and pay attention, you'll get an A in this course. The final is extra credit which makes it almost impossible to not get an A in this course. Highly recommend it if you need this type of credit! :)
Professor Robinson is very passionate about films and it helps you to gain some of that passion by taking a class from her. I loved this class and enjoyed watching films that I never would have decided to watch by myself. One piece of advice is to take notes while watching the films. There will be 10 questions about tiny details the quiz is timed.
Class is fairly easy except the quizzes include tricky questions on the movies. However, she is not understanding on ANY late work, even extenuating circumstances involving doctors notes, and she sends EXTREMELY passive aggressive emails if you ask her for any sort of extension. The class is well-organized but she's not a nice teacher.
In order to do well on the quizzes, I felt like I had to have my eyes glued onto the screen at all times; some of the quiz questions were very obscure. I wasn't doing well and got so many headaches from this.Thankfully, an extra credit assignment bumped my grade by 10 points. Professor is kind of harsh in her emails.
This is a time-consuming class because you HAVE to read the material and watch the movie each week attentively in order to do well on the weekly quizzes, which are open-note but only 10 minutes long. With that being said, you can get ahead in the class easily, and the final exam is purely extra credit! I enjoyed the class.
If you lose connection or are kicked out of a quiz she won't re-open it. It's like she knows that this class is just for an art credit and filmmakers don't attend classes so she overdoes it to create pretend credibility. Her experience is from Tooele, Utah Community Theatre. Not impressive. Don't take this class. And don't take her others.
Robinson was a phenomenal teacher. I always knew what to expect with grading and she made to sure to tell people how to not fail her class. Easy class if you pay attention
Robinson was the worst. She absolutely screwed me on an assignment and wouldn't give me any points at all even though it was thirty minutes late and completely finished. She was not understanding at all. She also accused me of plagiarism on another assignment with no reason to do so.
Robinson was an amazing professor! Everything on the course was very well organized, and she even provided the textbook for free. Definitely one of my favorites.
ALL HAIL THE LEADER THE CHEESE PEEPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This class was a breeze if you stay on top of the weekly readings and movie viewings. The quizzes can be tricky, but using unstuck ai alongside your notes made studying a lot more efficient. Overall, an engaging and manageable course.
