I must say that this professor had me fooled. I do not suggest that anyone take this course. The professor does not grade in a timely manner at all which makes it very difficult to assess how to go about submitting work. Currently, there are assignments I have submitted a month ago that still have yet to be graded. Currently a total of 7 ungraded.

Online instructors are cool.... but this on was just very unusual. She just grades york work without feedback. so if you get a 1/3 on a discussion post there will be no explanation in the comments or feedback on your learning. Deadline missed even if you had a valid reason? Too bad because she will refuse to let you try again.

Easy course. Only an ndividual and group paper in addition to the weekly discussion. The group project is hell because people don't do their work. Wish there was a way to weed these people out.

Laura's personal login rules does not fall in line with the reasons students sign up for online courses, which is CONVIENANCE. If U require students to log into complete work 3 times a week, she should also grade her students work within a timely manner. Laura is rude and she uses negative wording like "weird" to comment on student assignments.

I had to take 3 courses for summer and this was my favorite. The prof works as a OD consultant too which made the course actually relevant to my job. Some discussions were actually interesting The readings were easy and there isn't much work in the course. Two papers & one test which was multiple choice. There is a group project which is annoying.

I had to retake this class in the summer and it was much easier than spring even with double speed. The teacher grades generously and gives extensions if you ask. You don't even need a doctor note. I wish I could take more classes with Dr Swulak!

The professor is knowledgeable, but her grading style can be rigid. Utilize unstuckstudy and the textbook to stay on top of the work. The group project is challenging, but the overall course is manageable.

This was the most organized asynchronous course I've taken. Clear grading criteria and expectations. No B.S. You can work one week ahead if you want to. Exactly what I looking for in an online class.

If you receive disability accommodations and feel discriminated against by this professor it is because you are experiencing it. She lacks communication skills, and the willingness to answer questions and help when you are reaching out to her. She also takes her time to reply to your emails, and does not like multiple emails . She discriminates.

Laura Sywulak is not a good instructor. She fails to provide constructive feedback or make suggestions on how to improve work. She also tends to make students like myself not feel any confidence in passing the course. Her response to not doing well is "failure". Laura Sywulak enjoys using the word fail a little bit too much. Would not recommend.
