I am currently taking Study 80 with Dr. Walker and I have been greatly inspired to implement the methods and stratagies we've discussed. There is SOOO much to learn in this class, but you really need to be mature and open minded to acertain and utilize the stratagies taught in this coarse. Also she just so happens to be the author of the required text book for this class. Class is now over. I worked hard and got a 98.6% it was not easy, but very rewarding. Thanks Dr. Walker I will stop by and visit soon.

Took this professor because she had such high ratings. She's kind, but her class is an absolute joke. I understand this is PHIL Critical Thinking & Writing, but feels like a cheap philosophy class. SO MUCH unnecessary work that does nothing but ruin your grade. I have a high B, but likely won't finish with an A. Don't take her.

I took this class online. This professor was nice and kept on reminding us about the assignments coming up. However, I would say that there is a lot of reading involved in this class and the assignments are kind of hard but it makes sense since it's a critical thinking class. The practice quiz had really helped me with the actual quiz. It was easy.

Professor Walker taught a great and informative class! She provided many great resources and complementary materials for the textbook. Professor Walker graded all of the assignments very quickly, providing excellent feedback for all of my work. She also kept engagement high with all of the discussions throughout the class.

Professor Lori has clear and detailed instructions for every assignment. She takes her time to respond to every assignment and gives really good feed back. She offered extra credit and only allowed us to make up one late assignment. We had one 10 page midterm due and one 6 page final assignment. We had a manageable amount of work due every Sunday.

My first and favorite online professor!! Gives really good, detailed feedback. Reaches out and helps often and makes you feel cared for despite it being online. The coursework was manageable and she gave enough room to write on topics that interest you.

Took the honors version of this class, it's sooo hard!!! But Lori is an awesome professor AND person. So kind, understanding, and willing to work with you. I'd recommend her to anyone. Be ready to put in work and open your mind.

Professor Walker is amazing! Her class is very interesting but it is definitely more difficult. I honestly enjoyed this class so much. She gives extra credit opportunities and very obviously cares a lot about her students. I would one hundred percent recommend her class!!

Her lectures and such, just weren't for me personally. They were confusing, but shes a easy grader at the same time. She seems like a really nice and caring person however.

I would highly recommand her class to everyone who wants to improve their critical thinking skills. Her class is very organized and you will be fine if you can follow the instructions. Just schedule to talk to the tutor if you are confused, and that would also counts as your extra credit at the end of the semester.(WILL BOOST YOUR GRADE) good luck!

I definitely recommend professor Lori. Everything in her class was clear and well-organized. The amount of work was reasonable for a writing class and based on lectures and powerpoints. Professor Lori is really sweet and understanding of student's lives outside of school. She also gives great feedback. There is lots of extra credit!

Your ability to read and learn the information yourself is crucial to the course. Professor is very helpful though.

The course itself is challenging, but the benefit of getting through it is worth it. I am glad I chose Professor Walker's class! I have never gotten so much detailed relevant feedback on assignments. She enhanced my critical thinking skills for sure! Mostly importantly, Professor Walker cares about the success the of her students.

UPDATE 12/12 By far personally, this is the hardest honors course I ever taken! But Lori is an amazing professor! Although the Midterm Research Paper requires a lot of effort and research while the final writing assignment is kinda less, she really makes me so self-aware that the whole internet is filled with fake news! You're amazing Lori! :D

Professor Walker makes positive impacts on her students. If you're willing to learn, she's willing to teach you. I not only learned a lot about philosophical research, I learned more about myself as well. Her feedback and guidance helped prepare me for UC level classes.

This class is amazing, and the Professor is amazing. I have no idea why anyone would say this course is hard, since Dr. Walker is completely clear and organized when explaining how an assignment is graded. This class stimulated me mentally, while also not stressing me out about grades. I seriously cannot believe there are any negative reviews.
