Mrs. Dunagan is a great teacher. Her class is never boring. Your write like three papers ( 2-3 pgs)and do one group presentation. You will learn a lot from her and the chapter tests are group tests. Also be talkive and speak your opinion on the subject. She likes knowing what you think about the sunject.

Mrs. Dunagan is a wonderful instructor. She incorporated current events into class discussions many times and acted as a mediator. She explained the text and various handouts we received clearly and accurately. Political bias never once entered the classroom; she truly keeps an open mind. From taking the class you can tell she loves teaching.

She is the most nicest teachers you could ever ask for. We only had one test (group test) and our final was optional! We don't even read chapters so I would hold off on buying a book.

I now know more about government than ever before. To hell with memorizing dull info. and regurgitating it on a test...if you take this class, you'll learn about what government means to YOU and those around you.

I wasn't too impressed with Mrs. Dunagan at all. I took the online class. All we did was read different articles on current issues. She was hardly interactive with the students and was VERY slow with posting topics and assignments, and even slower with grading. I wouldn't take another class from her again.

this class was very easy. we had to do 4 postings, one 2-3 paragraph writing, and a short quiz each week. Got a 100 on every writing and test except two or three of them. She had family trouble, thats the only reason why she fell behind with the grading. Would recommend if you need a easy class. we didn't even touch the book so don't buy it.

Had her for fall 2018 flex 2 semester. I dont see how one of her core assignments was relevant to the course itself. She arbitrarily assigns work the week of! From last week to this week she added 4 additional assignments all due the same day (like no one works full time). Take this class if youre a full time student w/ no other responsibilities

LOTS OF HOMEWORK

Nice lady but can be a little tough on essay assignments. Feedback is great, you can tell she takes her time when grading. Loved the voice recordings !! Even involves real life situations that make you consider the future. Would take again. 10/10 Easy A

Assignments consisted of multiple choice questions from an e-book that you could answer multiple times if you got the question wrong. Discussions are easy, and she has two or three essays. Easy A.

Each week we were assigned 2 chapters from an online book that you must purchase. The assignments are a guaranteed 100 if you actually do them because you can change your answer as many times as you need. Along with the 2 chapters, we had a discussion or paper due each week (that aren't on the original schedule she provided). Overall not too bad.

She is a nice lady but you never know what assignment will pop-up and she has a different due date than the actual due date that she provides. Takes long time to grade even a simple discussion and i felt like if we do not agree on whatever she is thinking she will take out points from the assignments or paper. Too much demanding.

Lots of homework

She takes forever to grade paper and even a simple discussion posts. I thought she takes out points without ant reason even you follow all her formats. its only for an easy A otherwise I wouldn't take her.

UPS: - Good assignments. - No book needed. - Well-designed for FLEX. DOWNS: - Doesn't grade based on rubrics; if she does, only feedback is arbitrary comments based on her personal opinions of your writing (style, not the actual content). - Quizzes are (again) based on her understanding and not accurate. -Takes ages to grade assignments.

Difficult grader! I made 98 or better in 3 other classes and made a B- in her class. I'm a working professional and found the instructions not clear. Her frequent comments are that you did not follow instructions however her instructions do not match with her expectation. Takes a long time to grade.

Took the hybrid course. Super easy A. Her grading can be questionable but just make sure to met the requirements. She's understanding and willing to work with you on missed assignments. Would defiantly take her again.

Professor Dunagan is a very kind and understanding professor. When I had fallen behind in class due to circumstances I couldn't control she gave me an opportunity to make it up and pass. She's very honest with her students and makes the material easy to understand. This class is full of discussions and group work! I highly recommend this class.

Loved Professor Dunagan. She made class super easy to understand and I learned so much in the 8 weeks I was in her class. Her modules are super interesting, even for someone who has zero interest in Govt. She gives great feedback, responds to emails quickly and is so informative. I hope she teaches GOVT 2305. I will be registering for her class.

She was fine. I didn't care about government before, I still don't now. I took her for GOVT 2305 and 2306. Pretty easy class, I really liked the quiz format, all open book. Research papers weren't very long and had topic options.
