I took this class for non-major. Have to say it's not a hard class, missing so many lectures then I pass. The grade depends on 3 exam and online HW. Before exam she will provide review sheet which is helpful. Just keep in mind that do understand and memorize the review sheet, you will be fine on exam.

Professor Dee is very boring and this course did not teach me anything useful/that will pertain to anything important in the future. The tests seem easy but the multiple choice can throw you off and you can easily end up with B's on them when you should get an A. Textbook was a WASTE of money, never opened it. Online HW assignments were also dumb.

She takes attendance every class so you need to go or have someone else sign you in, but it's a pretty enjoyable class. She shows videos and she raps a review the class before exams. The wording on exams is annoying, but the questions aren't that hard if you study her review sheet. She is the sweetest woman and will help you with anything you need.

Dee is the sweetest human ever and really means well but this class is a mess. She ends up having to teach material thats on the test the day before, people constantly have to re-do projects and assignments because she doesn't explain them correctly the first time, and the final project is a nightmare. Love her, but don't take her for this class.

SOO cute and sweet. Will help you with anything and is so understanding. No attendance but she tells you everything that will be on the test in class so I recommend going. 2 tests, 1 final, all super doable if you study the night before. A lot of homework but super easy and quick online textbook questions. I highly recommend she's the best.

Dee is so nice but really disorganized. She gives study guides for the exams with just topics covered in a list, in no particular order, you have to sort through the course packet. Questions on exams can be ridiculously specific and obscure. A lot of her information is outdated, and constant mispronunciation of words can be kinda distracting.

I may be a little biased since most of the semester was online but Professor Dee was super accommodating! All the tests became weekly quizzes and we were allowed to use the book so they were easy! There are about 15 homeworks but those are all super easy and on quizlet. This class is also really interesting in general and she does test review raps!

Dr. Dee has been the most kind and caring professor I've ever had. She is genuinely excited about media, but even more excited to get to know her students. Things could get disorganized, but she never let it affect her students' grades. I would definitely recommend her Broadcast Programming class to those interested in working in TV/radio.

This was my second class with Dr. Dee and I'm so upset it will be my last. She made the course so manageable as a synchronous zoom, with weekly quizzes from the coursepack. The new research requirement was easy to complete. She cares a lot about her students: wrote me a rec letter, invited me to dinner, and asks about everyone's lives. TAKE HER!

Most of your grade is based off of 12 canvas quizzes from the coursepack and then there were McGraw Hill quizzes as well. There were no exams, but many times the class lectures are all over the place.

Reading her past reviews, she has changed the course a lot. This semester has been weekly homework worth almost nothing, then three big exams. The average on the first exam is 68% and the second is 67%. The homework and the study guides do not line up with what is actually on the exam. So many questions have all/noting which is hard to understand.

Dee is very sweet and engaging during lectures, however, her exams are extremely difficult. Exams often include trick questions and recall very small case details. She offers no extra credit and assignments outside of exams count for very little. There is a LOT of reading weekly that often has no relevance to exams. Class Grade = Exam Grades

My experience with Dee was not up to the standards of the ratings she got in the past. Only 6 grades the whole class, exams were very difficult and treat you like an outcast if you miss class(mine was for work reasons). she also will trick you at the end with her participation and attendance grade in which it is only for attendance. not a good time

She is one of the sweetest professors and is truly interested in this class and her excitement/enjoyment from teaching it shows. Her exams are very easy because she gave a study guide with exactly the topics that will be on the test, so all you need is to go to class and take notes. If you do miss something it's posted online which is very helpful.

Professor Dee is a very sweet professor who is passionate about what she does. Her exams. They are extremely difficult due to the multiple choice style and the amount of material that she includes on each exam. Exams are all multiple choice but the questions, for example, are styled; "Is the answer A, B, A&B, or none." ...No process of elimination

She honestly sets you up for failure. Must know 60 cases for exam and she doesn't give review sheet until 3 days before. Ask for the review sheet early and she won't answer your email for days or she will respond saying she hasn't even created the exam and review sheet yet. No extra credit. Very frustrating. Everyone struggles.
