Very helpful teacher. Moderately difficult class. You do have to study and read the book if you want to do well.
Extremely helpful and responsive. I learned a lot in this class and was able to use the information in other classes.
She is not very good at putting her assignments out in a timely manner and her due dates are all too close. She does not give you enough time to finish assignements or discussion boards. You'll always feel too rushed to do her work. This is a class to take if you have nothing else to do; not good if you have other classes a full time job.
I really liked this class. There was a lot of information that I learned for myself. She answered my emails really quickly and was alwys able to meet with me. Really good class.
Cute accent, cute teacher. Helpful and wants you to do well. take her!
Though the class was only a intro level, it felt more like an upper division course. She didn't give enough time for the assignments. This was a web course I regret taking. Beware!
one of the best classes I have ever taken. I wasn't even interested when i started, but she uses lots of real life stuff that you can apply. Complete the assignments and you will get a good grade even if you do not pass the exams. There is a big assignment where you interview your grandparent.
I was scared of this class. However, the prof was great! She really helped me to suceed in class by being clear and going over the info well. She is really helpful during office hours too. High recommends.
I ended up dropping the class.. but definately not because of her. I had to talk to her once and she waited 2 hours after her last class to wait for me to come and talk about my grade. I would definately recommend her to anyone, shes extremely nice, pretty cute, a bit lenient, but above all, super helpful.. definately a teacher worth taking.
she was a wonderful teacher! extremely helpful and knew so much about the subject and was so excited to teach it that she inspired me to consider a career in the field of gerontology. Highly recommended!!
The class itself was hard enough and she sometimes made it even harder. Most of the time she would say to ask other students first. Very time consuming and reading the book was a must. Good person...not so easy teacher.
its a tough course, but required. she makes it exciting and easier to understand. cute personality. genuine concern about how we perform. a great teacher!
Loved this class. There is alot of group work so I made some great friends. The prof is really friendly and cares about how you do in the class. She never goes too fast. Take her.
This was by far one of the most caring professors Ive ever taken in my entire college career!! This class wasnt easy, I'll admit that. but she is willing to work with you in any way! She even offered to meet me off campus before i had to go to work just to help me. I was borderline not passing and I was in danger of not graduating in May, i got a B
She is absolutely wonderful. SHe is extremely helpful and truly wants all of her students to do well and understand the material. She goes out of her way to help. I definitely recommend taking her classes! One of the best teachers I have had.
Lots of reading and papers. She is very helpful...just keep up with all the reading. I took her online class.
I had to drop the course because her demands for an online course were out of control. Midterm and final on campus, although it was an online course, book review, weekly discussion boards,20 community service hours with a reflection paper, online quizes and the list goes on.I thought online courses are for people pressed with time.
Wonderful professor! I have taken a few of her other classes too. She explains the material very well and has a very caring nature about her. You can tell she wants her students to do well in class, but don't expect to fly through the class without studying. Yes, you have to read and complete the assignments. Overall, best teacher I've had! Thanks!
Love her accent! She is by far one of my fav teachers! I got an A in the class, but that was because she helped me so much. She is super patient and so good with her students. Btw, helps to read the syllabus and attend the meetings. A+ for this teacher!
All I can say about this professor is that if you want to focus your energy into figuring out what is due, and not on the course then take her. I have successfully completed over 6 courses online with the exception of this one.It is unfair to post a quiz in one day and be due the same day, by sending an e-mail the day before. Unacceptable!!!!
Love this course and love this class. She is really helpful and nice. Took this class just to graduate and ended up being one of my favs. Don't know what the person below is talking about. She mentioned the quiz on the first day and in emails. Only one quiz for this class and the rest are just optional to help.One of the best, high recommends.
Avoid at all costs. Tons of busy work and group work. Quizes every other week. Conducts class like Jr.high but grades at graduate level. Worked very hard 2 get a B and i have a 3.89 gpa. Dont listen 2 others. For 302 shes a nightmare. unfair grader. picks favorites, and im not just saying that. i actually compared my grades w/others on same work.
A class with a bunch of busy work. She does not respond well to questions, she gives EXTRA HOMEWORK assignments not on the syllabus, most students say they like her, but then I they say the're struggling to get a C? After reading 6 chapters twice, an talking with her I got a 75 on the mid term, and a forced group project.
Loved this class. Def. my fav prof. She spends a lot of time with students and is very dedicated to us doing well. The course information is hard, its not her. Good class, I took it because it is required. Recommend her highly. There is a group research project. She lets us turn in group assignments and then use them in our final paper.
I TOOK HER ONLINE CLASS. SHE'S A GOOD PROFESSOR BUT THE CLASS REQUIRES A LOT OF TIME. THERE ARE WEEKLY DISCUSSION BOARD POSTS, 4 SMALL WRITING/REFLECTION ASSIGNMENTS, 2 EXAMS, AND A 20-HOUR SERVICE PROJECT. AS LONG AS YOU KEEP UP WITH THE WORK, YOU'LL DO OKAY.
This is a very tough course but I completely understand her kind of teaching style because it is a core class. This course demands a lot of work but if you ask for the help she will definitely make herself available for you. I struggled a lot in her class but I also learned a lot and it was very useful now that I am doing a independent research stu

This professor disgusts me. She is sarcastic, reluctant to help, has favorites and is rude. It is almost impossible to get an A, she is sarcastic and gets defensive if you question her teaching methods. This class made me regret pursuing a minor in sociology. Avoid this class unless you want a C- average which is what my class is getting.
Definitely not hot or a good teacher. She teaches elementary concepts and grades at a graduate level. Indifferent to your needs. Will give you 0.5 Extra Credit to help you along on tests. Yay? Avoid at all costs. This class will cause you nothing but stress and grief
This class is A LOT of work. However, Ms. Wong is a wonderful teacher. She really wants her students to do well and is there for you every stop of the way. You have to earn your grade! She appreciates students who go the extra mile so make sure to make appoitments and seek guidance from her, those efforts will reflect in your grade!
One of my favorite professors. Class is usually very interesting and there is a lot of discussion and back and forth between her and students. She is very good at clarifying what can be difficult topics. The tests are very difficult, but everything is from the books- it just requires that you actually read and understand it.
I took this as a sophomore. It was extremely difficult but Professor Wong was fantastic. She was very willing to help. Hard grader but only because she wants her students to truly succeed. READ THE BOOK.
She was kinda a rough professor, but I honestly can walk away saying I learned with something. She gives plenty of chances for you to ask questions, and she puts all powerpoints on blackboard. Extremely understanding and helpful, the material is just a difficult to teach.
Has English accent, she tries to make it interesting and is very helpful. Shegrades much harder end of semester. U are expected to understand and do things before the teacher actually teachers certain things.
Very helpful. Hard grader when it comes to papers. Encourages her students to pass her class. Exams are tricky, so make sure you read each question carefully and if she offers extra credit on the exams DO THEM. READ THE BOOK AND ASK HER QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very helpful. Loved coming to class everyday. Answered any questions I had. Whenever you are stressed about a paper or assignment just go to her office hours and talk to her. She's very compassionate and will probably give you an extension. She has given me the best references for jobs. I absolutely loved Karen.
Wong is the most helpful professor I've ever met. She is amazing or as she would say a "smashing" professor. Take her for methods, she makes a hard class interesting.
Professor Wong is flipping amazing! He is very helpful. This is not an easy class, but Professor Wong's passion for teaching makes it al worth it! She will help you if you ask for help and she will not give up on you! Highly recommended!
She is a very interesting teacher because she makes the class fun and she is zoo helpful, but the material is sooo hard. Her test & quiz are hard and the group project is too long. He grades very hard, but she is a nice teacher. Study study study a lot for a high good grade.
Really nice prof. and willing to help if needed, yet her clarity/ expectations for assignments/quizzes/tests are not clear at all. I find myself stressing out way too much over her material, and not feeling prepared at all once it comes time to take her exams. I am a good student, yet do not recommend taking a course from Wong to any student!
Difficult subject no matter who you take.Wong helps whenever she can.Slight language differences so exams are a bit tricky.MUST READ TEXT!But it's a good textbook.Most of class is the research project, so as long as you try your best and put in effort, you'll get a decent grade. Got an A+ last semester and ended up loving the subject in long run.
Professor Wong is an amazing professor. She has such a passion for what she teachers, that it's hard not to enjoy her class. However, I must stress how difficult her classes are. I have taken many 400 level courses that were much easier than her 133 class. There's many writing assigns, projects, and a book report. Still an amazing class though!
Professor Wong is overwhelmingly positive. She wants you to do well. The hardest part of the class is the application of the theories opposed to just memorizing them. If you have her for 302, make sure to take the practice tests on the website for the text. It will boost your grade 10 pts at least. If you don't have the text, your chances of doing well are slim to none. I would take a class with her again.
The class is hard because it's a core class. The assignments are difficult but it's all so that we practice for the end of semester project that is due. She is one of the most helpful professors I've ever taken and bends over backwards for her students. Do all the reading and you'll do fine. I would take her again in a heartbeat.
She is an absolutely WONDERFUL teacher! Professor Wong really tried to make an effort to keep our class entertained and encouraged participation. She is willing to give extra help if you ask for it and is honestly one of the best teachers that I have ever had! If you have a chance to get her as a teacher, go for it! :)
Professor Wong is the best Professor I've had! The class is difficult only because of the type of material that needs to be taught. She is very nice, helpful, friendly and sincerely wants her students to do good. There is a semester long project but she was always there to help every step ofthe way. I would love to have her as my professor again.
So far Professor Wong is the most considerate, understanding & caring teacher I have come across. She makes all of her students her priority & is very empathetic to her students needs. I got tonsillitis during the semester & she was so accommodating. Her students are her proiority, which is refreshing. Hands down one of the best professors I've had
I found her tests to be confusing and worded badly. I also just felt like the course required a lot of regurgitation for the exams and quizzes. The assignments required some thinking, which was a welcomed relief.
I really enjoy taking courses with Karen. She is very helpful and knows how to structure her courses online. I do have to say that she is a trickster when it comes to her exams. Her questions that she asks can sometimes be unclear. She is super helpful and prides herself in being on the same side as students. I appreciate that in a prof.
Professor Wong is a GREAT teacher, she really cares about her students and does everything she can to make it an enjoyable class. She can be pretty funny to and really encourages class participation. Assignments are easy but the tests can be difficult.
She is very kind. I don't understand anyone who bashes her. She truly cares about her students. She keeps the class interesting. While her tests can be a bit tricky to some, she is a great professor.
Prof Wong is wonderful! While the class is challenging at times, she is fantastic at assessing the work load and adjusting it as the semester goes on. She is insightful, helpful, encouraging and a great lady!
GO TO CLASS! Lectures are used for tests! Not hard or stressfull! Shes such a sweetheart! Exams are around 30 questions. a few questions booked based but i never read the book and still got a B+ on both exams
Very friendly and helpful professor. Exams were challenging but material was taken from text and her power points were helpful for preparing. Semester long group project that was broken up into smaller parts.
I loved this class and prof. Wong is the best! she really cares about her students.
Professor Wong was wonderful. She really cares about her students and offers a unique perspective in all of her topics. She also understands how to diversify in teaching methods to peak student participation and interest.
Proff Wong is such a sweetheart. She has the cutest accent and is very enjoyable to listen to. Her class is based on lectures. She gives a review before midterm and final. 1 group project (easy) and choose either interviewing an older person or volunteering at a senior facility, then writing about your experience. Shes a great teacher!
She is a wonderful person but not so great teacher. I didn't understand what she was trying to teach and the power points are mostly irrelevant. The class was okay but you definitely had to work for it.
Seriously such an amazing professor. She puts so much time and effort into her classes and truly cares about how well you do. Exams are tough but manageable if you read the chapters. There is a semester long research paper broken up in to two smaller assignments. She offered extra credit by attending seminars. I wish I could take her again!!!
The research paper was a headache, but it was very helpful to split part of the writing into two assignments. The exams were somewhat hard even though I read, averaged about a C. The discussion forums were very detailed but she didn't ding you for being wrong, it was more about how much effort we put. She gave great feedback and super helpful.
Im not sure what changed, but this woman's class was a nightmare despite it being 100 level. I was constantly confused on due dates because they did not match up with the days of the week, pretty sad. As for the quizzes, each question was on a topic that wasn't directly related to lecture notes, making them pointlessly harder. Avoid her
Karen is very accommodating and works with you. I was able to retake a quiz I scored poorly on and a 24-hour extension for a scheduled midterm due to being ill. She schedules one exam on a specific day and time. Make yourself available to take it! Do interviews, quizzes, discussions, 1 exam. I have an A right now. Put in effort, you'll get an A :)
Took online and the homework was super easy. Only get 10mins for the quizzes and 60mins for the exams which are about 50-60 question long. So you gotta know your stuff. You also have to take the exam on the day and at time that she chooses. So make sure your available on that day. Overall very interesting class.
She clearly thinks her class is the only one student's are taking. Aren't online classes supposed to be flexible? Her exams are on Sundays at 9 am&you HAVE to take it at that time&day. WAY too much HW. If there's a paper due she still assigns a discussion board&quiz that week. Not to mention she assigned HW the week of spring break. AVOID HER
I loved her. She kept her online class very organized. She was so accommodating, let me retake multiple quizzes because she thought I could do better. Responds to emails promptly and is available all the time to meet in person. I didn't put in too much effort in this class and ended with an A! Take her (:
Nice lady but a poor teacher. She brings in guest speakers often and seldom lectures on what will be included on the test. Her quizzes are designed to trick you rather than to find out whether or not you got the general important concepts. I am so disappointed.
Karen Wong is THE MOST caring and accommodating professor on campus. She cares about the well being of every individual student. Lectures help on tests. While her actual powerpoints have little to no substance, she does go over some videos and verbally explains concepts thoroughly. Moderate effort A Easy B if you go to class alot Super easy C
Class wan't too hard, but lowkey a lot of reading/busy work. She's nice but not good at explaining things, and nothing on the study guide was even on the final. 8 discussion posts 650+ words, 5 quizzes (lowest score gets dropped), one final exam, and a 7-8 page reflection. Easy B if you do all the work, but Wong is not at the top of my list
If I knew it was going to be this hard and this much work I would not have taken her class. Shes a really nice person but this class was just too much for what it is. Be ready to present, interview, write papers and have group discussions every time you go to class.
I had her this semester. It was all lecture and they were poor quality too. She didnt see to provide good information and she loved to give unnecessary assignments. Participation is super important that she even had a place to comment about it on ur final. I wouldnt take her class. Much harder than it should be given its a 100 level class.
The class lacks communication which makes it difficult to know what to do and study for. There is a semester long project and a lot of class discussions/activities. The lectures aren't terrible, just confusing at times. The tests aren't bad, but they do have short answer questions that are hard to study for. Karen is sweet though!
I took this class to fulfill my GE's. This class is to complicated and extra. There was a semester long project we had to do outside of class and also write two papers for it. Professor Wong is a very nice teacher. But her class in general is not worth taking if you are not a Gero student. Even though it is a 100 level class the class work is busy.
She's truly ridiculous. I'm currently taking her online class and she expects way to much! Timed 7 min quiz for 7 questions (weekly), 800 word DB's every week and reply to 3 classmates with at least 600 words, also read additional book for the midterm on top of textbook, long uninteresting videos. And tests are timed too- 60q's in 50 mins! AVOID!!
Weekly assignments (not exaggerating): 35 pages of reading, 10 pages of written lecture (links in them often don't work), 45 slide show lecture (over saturated w/ useless info), quiz every other week, service learning (26 hrs/semester), & discussion writing (650 word minimum w/ citation). Far too much work for a 100 level course. Steer clear!
Great class! Just know if youre not attending class youre going to miss a whole lot of info. Follow her syllabus, do the assignments. Shes very caring, and flexible, but dont give lame excuses for not doing papers/tests. Enjoyed the class!
Took her soc class, found it easy. Id take her again. Interesting class. Did great in quizzes & tests. Good prof. takes the time to help you if you need it.
I'm an aging studies minor but I recommend that anyone takes her! In my 4 years of college, I have never had a more genuine professor. She loves to get to know her students! After going virtual due to covid-19, she was extremely supportive/flexible with assignments. Overall, her lectures are amazing and she engages the whole class.
Says that she welcomes questions from students through email but won't respond for over a week. Still, you have to send multiple emails to get her attention and always provides a lame excuse for not reposonding. Needs to work on communication skills!
Professor is understanding. She takes very long to grade (I still have no clue what my final grade will look like). Though she may consider them lectures, typed out documents are not. Exam and quizzes are extremely ambiguous and specific. Hard to study for this course because of this, even if you feel that you have a rounded knowledge of everything
Dr. Wong is nice but the class is a mess! Course material was always opened late (had to email to open), instructions are vague and/or contradictory in different places, things are mislabeled, quizzes and exam questions are horribly written, weird essay, ppts and handouts are a mess, and has barely graded anything. Don't take it unless its required
Honestly the worst professor I've had at CSUF. She does not communicate well with students, meaning that she takes forever for her to responded to emails. Also, her lectures have nothing to do with her quizzes. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this course for any CSUF student! I wish CSUF would hire another professor to teach this course.
Professor Wong should not be a professor of any sort. She cannot communicate or organize well. Second, she is unprofessional, her son is always interrupting class, and she always provides an excuse for not doing something, like grading (which is her job!!!) All my other classmates feel the same way about her. I am not sure why is still working.
I couldn't agree more that reviews below about Professor Wong. She does not communicate, grades assignments on a reasonable timely manner. Don't take this class with this professor.
I hated Professor Wong this semester! There is nothing positive I can say about her as a professor. All the work assigned is busy work. I feel as if she doesn't even grade the assignments turned in. Also, her "lectures" do make any sense. Please do not take this class!
Not a good professor. Always updates weekly classwork late. Quizzes are challenging. Expects too much from students for a 100 level class.
STAY AWAY DO NOT take her as a professor at all! even If your behind credits. She is very hard to reach she did not reach out until she was getting feedback from her leaders, assigns 4 assignments to be done back to back not even a break between them. expects you to do 120 hours + her hundred assignments this was worse class I have ever taken.
No that great of a professor. Terrible with communicating and has barely graded any assignments for the class.
Don't take this professor, however unfortunately she is one of the only professor who teaches this class. Made me reconsider if I should pursue my MS in gerontology since she is the advisor for the program and is not organized at all to be in this position.
Wong is a real messy professor. Her titanium pages are all messed up. She changed due dates constantly. She forced you to have cameras on during the pandemic. Her tests had multiple spelling errors and just straight-up confusing questions. Her requirements are just odd. Really one of the worst professors I've had at CSUF.
If I could give her a 0 I would. She has been the worst professor I have ever experience. When hearing her talk it sounds as if she doesn't even know what she's saying. Her notes are not notes they do not relate to anything. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if she wrote her own reviews. She sucks! Do not take her!!
okay i dont know what all these bad reviews are for!! SHE ISN'T JUST KIND, SHE'S GOT YOUR BACK! the first quiz we got, right after she said "i just want to see where you guys are at, it wont count dw"(we all found out we failed later too so she def loves her students) she also let me turn in a HUGE project late and didn't take off points. take her!
Professor Wong is amazing. When I first came into class, I thought this was going to be my least favorite class. BUT I was proved wrong! Professor Wong is an amazing, caring, respectful, and loving teacher. I RARELY got homework, like not even one I don't think. Her lectures are great and she explains them thoroughly. She is overall the best prof.
AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!! EXAMS WERE ONLINE AND THE ANSWERS WERE ON QUIZLET!! SO MUCH FUN! SHE WOULD BRING US FOOD AND DIDN'T GIVE US A FINAL! SHE SAID: "NO FINAL! JUST A PAPER INSTEAD BUT I WANT TO ALLEVIATE YOUR STRESS AND MAKE U GUYS FEEL PEACE SO IM MAKING THE PAPER OPTIONAL TOO." I LOVE HER! NO HW OR QUIZZES AND ONLY 2 EXAMS THATRE EASY!
One word: amazing. Take my word for it, you wont regret taking her class. She loves her students more than anyone else i've seen
Shes a very kind and caring professor. It was a very light workload. If you pay attention during lectures and do the reading youll be fine. We did a semester long service learning project, was simple but a good portion of the grade. Other than that we had no assignments, our grade was based off that, the midterm, and the final.
WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE ONLINE! IT IS A WORKLOAD! DISCUSSION POSTS 600 WORDS, EXAM ON A SUNDAY, LIFELONG PROJECT OR IN ESSENCE A INTERNSHIP FOR A LEVEL 100. HER CANVAS PAGE WAS NOT ORGANIZED OR IT DID NOT SEEM LIKE SHE PROOFREAD IT, TOOK A LONG TIME TO RESPOND TO EMAILS, AND HONESTLY A LOT OF WORK FOR A 100 COURSE ONLINE.
Class was online due to covid. Unreasonable work load for a 100-level course. Semester-long projects, 600 + word discussion posts, many assignments, not clear grading criteria. She did not upgrade the grade book until the last few weeks of the semester. Overall, not a great experience, and busted my ass to get that B+
She does not grade anything or respond to any emails. If is halfway through the semester and after doing a discussion post every week, the only thing that is graded are the online quizzes which essentially grade themselves. I just hope she grades soon so I know where I stand in the class and so I can graduate. 100% DO NOT RECOMMEND
Do not recommend, no idea how she has such a high rating. She does not grade at all and does not respond to email. I wish I would have known this before taking her class
Horrible communication, never grades, impossible time limits on tests, it took an email to the head of the department for her to actually grade some of our work just for her to return to not grading anything after that on time. Saying she cares about her students and their well-being is far from the truth and she shows it in her actions
She requires a semester-long project and you can choose between two; Service Learner Internship or Interviewing an Older Adult. I did the Internship and loved it, but hate the class. She gives too much work for an 100 level. 650+ discussion posts, one exam, 8-page final paper and short quizzes. If you can, dont take this class.
Absolutely delightful teacher. Truly so much homework, but is very understanding with everything and is willing to help you catch up if you fall behind. Project LIFE was so fun, and I'm appreciative that Professor Wong gave me the opportunity to join it.
Very good professor, passionate about aging. Semester long project with 2 essays and a final essay. 1 midterm and final, online, no zoom required.Tests are long but at least they are open notes. She calls on us to read or to share our thoughts aswell. Overall, she is very nice and makes the fun class, Take her !
I took her Fall 22 in person; she was very caring and knowledgeable. We did in-class activities and group discussion posts. I did the service learning for my project; it was super eye-opening and something I'll value forever. If you guys participate in class she might drop the paper as she did for us. She brought us treats to eat. I loved her.
This professors idea of teaching is busy work. The class is 2 discussions a week from what you read and 2, 8 page papers for an accelerated course. There is no lecture and no learning. The grading is not done in any reasonable time. You are more than half way through the class before the first assignment is graded. Worst class I have ever taken.
Way too much work for a 100 level class...You get to pick between two semester long projects that take about 3 hours a week ON TOP of a weekly discussion and quiz. I would NOT recommend this teacher to anyone.
Professor Wong cares; however, she does not accept late work. class is asynchronous mini discussions due Thursday and full discussions due Saturday it was really a struggle due to the amount of reading. took 7 weeks to grade work and submitted grades from the midterm paper the day our final was due, so you really have to work for your grade.
I have reached out to her multiple times over the course of this class and have heard nothing from her back. This was an async class so it made it difficult not being able to have any type of conversation with her. Her grading is harsh. Other students have also not heard anything back from her even though she provided us with her email.
A lot of discussion and writing. Weekly assignments are 500+ words, plus a 5-question quiz. She grades strictly—typos or poor sources lose points, and MLA/APA formats are a must. There's no final, but a big 60-question online exam with tough questions. If you're not prepared for detailed grading and heavy writing, this class is challenging.
This class has a heavy workload, with multiple projects and weekly assignments. However, the professor is very understanding and willing to help if you fall behind. I found unstuck AI really helpful for staying on top of the workload. Overall, a challenging but rewarding course.
Professor Wong is a nice professor who you can reach outside of class if you need anything. She let me take an exam a day early because I needed to which was nice. The only thing is this class is only graded by 3 exams, 1 essay, and EC.
Truthfully the course was interesting and materials were great. Teacher was nice but I didn't like that she takes forever to grade.
