Pat is one of the best teachers I have had at Chemeketa. Very dedicated to what she does, as is her commitment to teaching. She is not an easy grader, but is very clear on what is expected.

Not worldly, yet she spends more time bragging about how much she thinks she knows than actually teaching. She's a great example of someone who's bitter after being passed up by those much more qualified to teach at a major university and in turn appears bent on sabotaging anyone headed in that direction. I'd hate to be one of her children.

I received an A despite having her as an instructor. She does not know her own course material. Her style of testing does not reflect your level of subject knowledge but rather how well you are able to identify her test manipulations and navigate trick questions. She appears more interested in creating stress than imparting knowledge. Avoid her.

She was a great teacher. Sometimes it seemed like we were expected to know the information well enough to teach it which was arduous and unnecessary. Online quizzes have a cutoff time - you get locked out. Exams have an arrival time - you get locked out. Essay style answers on exams are grueling. Thought it would be an easy A but was mistaken.

She seems like a decent teacher. As long as you participate some what you'll be fine and do the work. Lots of reading though. She also gives students a piece of paper for a name tag to put on the table so during lecture she can call on students. I've also realized that more girls take this class than boys if that matters.

I took her online SOC204 class expecting it to be not so difficult as it is an entry level course. The discussions have to be so incredibly in depth its almost impossible to get 10/10. She has chapter readings plus 2 different lectures. And there are papers, quizzes, discussions, and mid-term and final in the class with one extra credit.

Tough grader, rely's heavily on the text book and you will need tons of time to answer he in-depth questions during discussions. Quizzlet will be your best friend.

Not sure if she expects a page essay for answers or what. Tough on grading, even with writing 2+ paragraph answers for discussion and midterm/final questions, I still was not expanding enough on my answers. Seems close to impossible to get an A on anything.

I enjoyed the subject matter so the class wasn't too bad but I didn't interact with the teacher much at all. When I did ask questions through email, she answered in short sentences. The homework assignments were simple, discussion required, the quizzes multiple choice, and the midterms and final were all essay questions. Be prepared to write.

The only thing that helped me barley get an A was the extra credit, which i still didnt get full points on. She is a really tough grader, no matter what my answers were they were never full points. Seemed impossible to get a perfect score on any assignement. Be prepared to go in depth on those essay questions.

Patricia expects the best from her students, she expects you to participate and ask questions daily for points. There is a lot of writing and she offers a second midterm online for if you want to improve your grade. Wasn't the easiest A but did offer extra credit to boost to an A. Super nice teacher and cares. Take her if you want to learn!

Shes alright. Sorta has a strong mindset on certain issues, so if youre on the opposing side your grade might deflect what she believes is right. Interesting lectures (but its pretty much whats in the text). Grade relies a lot on weekly quiz scores, exams and essay projects. Good organization for a remote learning course!

I paid attention to how deep she wanted the responses based on her feedback and made sure to be more inclusive with my already long answers. I personally feel she is trying to get us to see the whole picture and answer accordingly. She was hard but good and worth having again. I recommend her!

Course is primarily consists of one discussion each week and responding to two other classmates.She wants discussion post to be posted on Thursday and respond to people on Sunday.Due dates for discussions are very misleading you can easily forget.She expects you to elaborate a lot in order to get full points.Slow grader, know your grade by mid-term

There was very little teacher contact as an online course, but the class overall was balanced. Coursework load was appropriate for a 4 credit class, discussions weekly, 2 papers and 2 exams. My only complaint is that the exams are disproportionately a large part of your grade. The average of your exams will be your final grade so utilize the text

So far, I feel defeated. I feel that I am being clear on my papers, and nothing seems to be good enough for her. Feedback is harsh and bordering on rude. She also takes a long time to grade so you have no idea how you're doing for weeks.

there are much better teachers in the sociology department. patricia constantly goes on rants about how bad gen z is etc. the majority of her lectures are just tangents loosely related to the text. takes at least a month for her to grade anything, and if you ask for feedback before submitting an assignment she goes on a condescending rant.

I took Sociology 204 with Professor Patricia. The course had heavy readings and very strict grading. Even using ChatGPT, she deducted points, making an A difficult. Grading delays meant we didn't know our progress until it was too late to drop. Many students share similar frustrations. The experience was challenging and frustrating.

This class was easy for me, yes you do a lot of writing but nothing crazy. No crazy essays, and midterm and final are on canvas, and they're very easy. As long as you keep doing your work, it's an easy A. I didn't feel overwhelmed with the work load. This is a class to take if you want a chill class credit.

If anyone was thinking about taking "sociology: death and dying", just a warning it's NOT an easy A. The midterm and final are 5 essays EACH, and the textbook reading is heavy. There is an extra credit option (an outline of a chapter of your choosing), and make sure everything is on time, she deducts a ton of points if it's late.
