She is an amazing professor, she is very caring and is very straight forward. She gives you many opportunities to correct your papers and helps you along the way. Highly recommend taking this class face to face and with this professor!!

Dr. Mason is an awesome instructor and a caring individual. Her educational psych class consists of 16 chapters and quizzes with 2 exams and a major research assignment. Overall, I really enjoyed this class, my only source of frustration was that her powerpoints omit information that was on the quizzes, very frustrating so make sure you read

She was a really great online professor. It's almost a self taught class, and I liked that because I got to basically go at my own pace for the Human Lifespan. You get tons of time to do the quizzes and you get more than 1 chance to do them. The discussion posts were a little difficult but nothing a college student cant handle!

Need to make sure you keep up with assignments. Finding the articles for the writing assignments can be difficult so give yourself enough time to find the correct article.

Do not take this professor unless you have absolutely nothing going on in your life except school. Zero flexibility for those who work, which is why I took online. She treats her class like it's the only priority anyone has. Abrasive and demeaning. I suffered a death in my family and was refused extra time to makeup work. 2nd time i've been upset.

This course was very easy, but interesting. There were only three discussion boards and quizzes were very easy.

Dr. Mason's class was very easy. She can be a tough grader but she also gives you a chance to submit discussion posts before the due date and she will tell you what to fix so you can get full credit. The discussion board was really the only awful assignment. 5 of them at 600 words a piece. Felt like non stop short essays.

This class has the capability of being good but discussion posts are truly just mini essays that require 2 articles and the textbook that aren't allowed to be cited. I made A's in all writing classes and I always cite sources. Additionally, tests are only worth 16% of your grade and the discussions are worth 52%. Her grading is extremely tough!

I took Professor Mason's lifespan growth and development class. The only way you could get a bad grade in the class is if you don't try. You are made aware of all of your assignments for the semester at the beginning. You get two chances on all of the quizzes, tests, and discussions.

Masons class was reasonable overall. The quizzes and discussion boards require effort, but using resources like unstuck AI can help. Manageable workload if you stay on top of it.

Dr. Mason has been almost non existent since the beginning of the semester. She is very unclear in what little feedback she gives. This shouldn't be a very difficult class, but she doesn't explain much of what she wants other than to say refer to her rubrics and the apa manual.

This professor gives the most vague feedback on assignments. It's very difficult to get any response from her, and she's very inconsistent in her grading.

Dr. Mason certainly stands on business, but she is an amazing professor. She's very understanding and grades fairly. She always gave us feedback on major assignments before the final grade, to help her students do as well as possible. The only thing I would say to beware of is her online classes, especially for writing in psyc, it is best in person
