Great, down to earth professor!!

She is very excited about the subjuct and she really gets into it, which helps the class get interested. Very flexible with participation points by letting us get them by responding on educator! This is very helpful for those a little shy! GREAT!

She does require you to do quite a bit of work but all the things you complete prepare you for the exams. We only had her half a semester because our other professor just stopped teaching the class. Do her review sheets, they aren't required but prove very helpful on the test. She is a great teacher and enjoys what she does!

Definitely take her. She is a fantastic teacher, the best I've had in a long while. Lectures are interesting, work is reasonable, and she gives you everything you need to pass. Class discussions on "hot" issues are also interesting. Biggest advice I have: answer the study guides as if you have to turn them in. It really helps for the tests.

She is a very good teacher.. and nice:)

She is a great teacher and is excited about what she teaches. There is quite a bit of work, but it is desighned to help you on the tests. The class is easy if you study.

She gives you study guides for every chapter covered. Fill these out like it's your job because those questions are (word-for-word) what her short answer tests consist of. Only three tests all semester and six 2-page response papers to readings you'll do. Super easy if you just go to class and follow her lecture. And she's extremely helpful too.

You have to be an idiot not to do well in this class. She explains things so even the most ignorant student can understand. Her lectures are interesting and she involves the class which makes it fun. Very fair and always willing to meet students after class for extra help.

Great teacher, sweet personality. Government was really not my thing before this class. Now i can actually understand whats going on in the news and i dont change the channel.

Her enthusiasm really got me into it. I was always confused by government, now i actually get it. She makes you see why its relevant and important.

This class will make you love government. It is a time consuming class. But it's not that bad. Doing the study guides is the key to passing this class. She stresses to read the book. But, just use the book to complete the study guides and then just study your notes and the guides. Go to class and give some input during discussion & you'll pass.

Lisa is an awesome teacher! Had no interest in politics before taking this class and now I can't shut up about them! She is very passionate about the material and wants everyone to enjoy being in class. Show up, listen, browse the reading guides and you'll pass with flying colors!

She is fun! I really liked her. She won't take any crap and sometimes I felt like i was in High school, however she made me love elections, campaigning, and made me realize how fun this stuff is!

Super, awesome, mega, good. Actually TEACHES. You don't just memorize a bunch of dates and b.s. terms, you LEARN! I am definitely smarter for having had this professor. If you are a immature, disrespectful brat you probably won't want to take her class but if you really want to learn something, sign up with Lisa.

Shes great! Her excitement about politics rubs off on you. Would recommend her to anyone!

Maybe the two previous writers didn't do well because thet thought she was teaching history. She has high expectations, but you will learn about political science issues.

Lisa is a good teacher. But should probably think about teaching honors classes only. She has very high expectations and for someone who isn't very good in goverment in the first place, it wasn't fun. She talks alot about current events and past events. You have to read in between the lines of very intellectual and hard to read material.

Loved this teacher. Really helped with things whenever you needed. Makes things clear and she was full of energy.

Lisa is an excellent teacher. You will actually learn the material in her class. I hated government before I took her class, but she made it SO interesting that I looked forward to every class. She gives a lot of ways to earn points in her class so it's hard to bomb it if you actually try to do the work. Also, the big paper was due in the middle of

Lisa is an excellent teacher. You will actually learn the material in her class. I hated government before I took her class, but she made it SO interesting that I looked forward to every class. She gives a lot of ways to earn points so it's hard not to do well. I would take her class again in a heartbeat!!

This is a really hard class, but you will learn so much, and Lisa made it very enjoyable. She knows so much and really respects everyones opinion. There are lots of hw, but its always to help you learn better about the material. Lisa is great! Such a nice person

First of all, if you care about your GPA don't sign up for her class! She is highly engaged and you really get to know politics in her class. The downside is, the workload is insane and instead of earning credit her whole grading system is based on loosing points.

She knows her stuff and is excited about teaching it. Very big on class participation. Hard grader and frowns on tardiness or absences. Tons of homework, front loader class. If you keep up on everything and ask for her help the class is completely passable. Be prepared to spend a lot of time working on her homework.

I have no idea what the person before me is talking about. There is no mandatory homework needed for this class. AND if you do the homework you can use it on the test, which makes the test rather easy. You have one long paper and two short ones. Three tests and a group presentation. That is all study and you're garunteed an A it's that easy.

AMAZING! she makes politics easy. and if you do the reading guides you can use them on the exams which are easy if you pay attention. lisa's attitude made the class exciting, you definitely wont fall asleep.

I took this course online and it's the best online class I've ever had. Lisa's enthusiasm about politics really comes out and made me more interested in politics. I learned so much. I highly recommend her for an online class!

The class is easy to pass if you go everyday and do all of the reading guides and reading assignments. You are in class learning from the minute it starts till the second it ends which is okay but very boring. I didnt like her at all but i passed with an A.

Do not take this professor if you think government is a blow-off class. You will definitely be getting your money's worth, but pay attention, do the reading guides, do the discussion forum posts early, and GO TO CLASS every single time. Lecture can be boring but it's only for 15 weeks.

Lisa is extremely passionate about this subject! I took the honors version with a project and if you have the time in your schedule I highly recommend this course. The service learning project is extremely rewarding. There is quite a bit of out of class work though. Lisa is a great communicator and will help you with anything you need!

Mixed on this prof. She's excited to involve her students: very subjective in her grading of others. I'm getting an A 'cause I learned to partake in discussion like a liberal. Clearly biased in her instruction, but will deny it to her dying breath. I won't take any of her other classes, but she does actually TEACH, which is rare for this college.

When I entered the classroom In my mind I was like "Oh man, I'm going to hate this class" I've never been a fan of government. But Lisa, is very into her politics, she's extremely helpful, she knows how to make class worth it. If you have to take this class I'd recommend her! She's there for your success!

If you are not a good student don't take this class. She assigns homework and expects you to participate. These concepts are alien to a lot of students.

Lisa is super excited about politics. Very knowledgeable and tries sinking info into your head. Exams are tough, as are the essays, but passable if you study the powerpoints and Chapter quizes. She's a great instructor and willing to help any student. This class is NOT a breeze, as she admits to not making it easy. Show up everyday & be on time!

She is super excited about politics. Homework every class time. Not a easy class, does some group work. She is willing to help you understand anything answers many questions. Lots of notes and must do the work. BE ON TIME! She is a talker.

BEST TEACHER I'VE HAD@DELTA! She was so knowledgable&helpful! Her tests were challenging but not impossible&she would tell us exactly what to expect on tests&even did essays together in class for test points.she's very helpful. Before the class i did not care about politics but she made it fun and exciting. I learned so much from her.Def take her!

Her class was very insperational. You might not like politics one bit going into the class but coming out of it you will love it. She is very friendly and listens to all students. Great feedback. Not s tough grader at all and most assignments are in class and the tests are online. Great class.

Lisa is the best professor at Delta, I wasn't interested in politics until her class. I would take another one of her classes again in a heartbeat. However, you have to be in class and you have to do the work or you wont get a good grade. She does give homework every night but its mostly reading and printing off powerpoints from elearning.

One of my fav professors at Delta! I hated politics before this class, but this prof's passion made it interesting and now I actually enjoy following the news. Grading is tough but fair, and what she wants on assignments is clear. Getting involved in class and participating in discussions will make it fun!

Great political science professor spent lots of time discussing topics in class. Encouraged class to think objectively about topics. Learned more in this class than I have in any other.

She is the nicest professor and makes an effort to get to know you. You can go to her with anything. Three exams, none are cumulative. She wants you to pass so she gives you the short-answer exam questions and will let you know how to improve your answers before the exam. I would definitely take her again for any class.

Lisa is the most caring and passionate professor I've had at Delta. She really wants her students to do well and goes out of her way to help. She is VERY passionate about politics and makes class fun. I was dreading having to take this class but it turned out to be a great experience.

I love her! She is so caring, and is always willing to help her students. Although the civic engagement project was a lot of work, i don't think I've ever learned this much in a class. You are also expected to take a quiz every Sunday, except the Sunday before tests.

I went into this class hating politics but I learned way more than I thought I would. Her expectations are clear, so if you follow insturctions and meet due dates, you will be fine. Lectures are really interesting, and there's tons of interaction during class. I have never had a professor this passionate about a topic!

Lisa really shows students how politics work and gives well thought out lectures planned out as the given calendar. She is one of the best professors I have had at Delta and she helped me get involved in many things around the campus.

This class wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. The project was actually fun and a cool way to learn in a hands on way. Class was very relevant to real life. I would definitely recommend this prof!

Be prepared to be organized and prioritize. Her project is "busy" you will earn your grade in this class. Although tough she wants to see you pass and will work with students. Gives extra credit, with and without papers. Lectures are good and always generates good discussion. Your class mates matter for this class, having a opinion and interacting.

This class is only hard if you don't do the work ! Saw reviews saying she was a tough grader but she isn't if you complete the assignment . Awesome teacher and awesome energy !!!! Deff one of my fav teachers

A great and inspiring teacher. She always knew where we left of in class and Gave good lectures . She makes you put in effort but as long as you work hard you will get a good grade and learn a lot . Deserves a raise

She is very passionate about politics. As long as you participate and listen to her you will be fine.

Came back to school after being out for 22 years and this was my first class. Even though there is quite a bit of work if you stay on top of things and participate in class you will do just fine. She is very enthusiast and loves what she teaches. Everyone should be so lucky to have a professor who is that passionate about their subject.

Lisa is very happy about what she does & makes class fly by. She gives out quite a bit of homework, but it can easily be found in the book or the lectures given. There are a few papers, but the criteria is easily understandable, so it is easy to receive a good grade on them.

I took her during spring semester and there was a lot of material to cover. You definitely have to read the book or you won't pass. If you want an A in her class, you have to go well above her listed instructions. She is a tough grader, but you will learn a lot because she is very passionate about what she is teaching.

This class is a lot of work, but Lisa is such an amazing professor who is willing to work with you. I would recommend her to everyone!

Absolutely loved her as a teacher. Very caring and accessible when needed. No tests throughout the course, except a take home final. Daily participation and groupwork. Weekly assignments to help you get to know material. I would recommend her to anyone!

Best Prof. I've ever had!! Love the flipped classroom learning. Save money, textbook & lecture available on eLearning. A little bit of a tough grader, but she gives amazing feedback & you learn a lot! Homework & quite a few papers/writing assignments, but it is all laid out & step by step easy if you put the work in. Exams are based off homework.

Had to do fifteen hours of civic engagement outside of class, but made it so easy and clear. You can tell she's very passionate about what she teaches. Gives great feedback and as long as you do your work and show up to class you're guaranteed an A because she's a fairly easy grader.

Lisa is so nice and incredibly helpful. Her lecture materials are sometimes lengthy but really help to better understand the material. Exams were taken through eLearning using a lockdown browser and webcam but you can use your notes for all tests. The project element is fun, she offers multiple ways to complete it and extra credit opprotunuties.

Lisa was amazing. I learned so much and she was always there to help me with with anything I needed.

anyone that doesnt like her only says so bc they didnt do their hw. lots of hw but just do it and its fine. girlboss

Professor Lawrason was amazing! She inspired me deeply, and I will never forget her. The class was in depth, but she stops to make sure you fully understand all the material. A healthy mix of out-of-class and in-class assignments, all of which help you comprehend the material. Exams are difficult, but not if you study. She wants to see you succeed!

Very dedicated and passionate professor who cares about her students' success. She was my only online professor who actually cared to upload lectures. Be prepared to dedicate hours to her assignments, though. Her American Politics class was exactly what I expected as someone new to attending college.

Lisa is a good professor. Easy exams but sometimes the homework takes awhile. make sure you print off your ISA to use it on the exam.She does give off her political view which is kind of annoying. Cares alot about students. Overall, shes great and would recomend.

I liked her but it was a bit scary how passionate she was about politics. I feel like she expected a lot from us even though most of us are only taking the class because it was required. I did learn a lot though. Do you ISAs and you'll do fine on the tests and quizzes. The homework did take me a while and I totally didn't cry over it a few times...

Lisa Lawrason is a passionate, inspirational instructor. You will get a lot out of this class if you participate and do your homework. If you are struggling, she will help you outside of class. She is easily accessible via email. She cares about her students and wants them to succeed. Highly recommend. I would take this class over a million times.
