Took class over the Summer in 8 weeks. You must be very active in the discussion posts. She really looks at what you write. And the weekly tests are pretty tough. You have to look very deep into your text book for the answers in a short amount of time. Keep all your quizzes for the midterm and final; they are the same questions and answers.

Quizzes can sometimes be a little difficult, but aren't too bad. The midterm/final are each about 100 questions and are from the quiz questions. Take her!

I took lit online with Dr. R. The weekly assignment is to read the material she provides online (no book purchase was required) and respond to it on a message board. You also have to respond to 2-3 other student's posts. There are only 4 grades, so you need to be on top of them to get an A. She didn't respond quickly to emails. Don't be lazy!

Professor White was tough grader, she gave generic feedback for your written assignments, you're unable to improve.She responds to emails, but she doesn't go out of her way to help you, and her replies are rude. The class was not difficult yet getting beyond an A in her class is demanding.Her criteria are her judgment if you have put enough effort.

Enjoyed Comp 2. Interesting and organized online course. Teacher was caring and flexible about late work which was helpful in my situation. Bonus: No expensive textbooks required.
