Kepner is honestly a great professor, what she says ties in to the chapters even though she does go off topic it all ends up coming back together! YOU HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION AND LISTEN! there's no time for zoning out in this class. You can't pass the class without the book (you read every page of the book) tests are pretty easy if you read and do notes. ALOT of group work. Show up to class if you want to pass. Community service project and lectures/tests is what this class consists of. Participation is key, if you don't participate by talking with the class you loose points and she will notice and will pin point you out.

Mrs. Kepner is an amazing professor I had her for several classes. Can be a little tough at the beginning but if you learn the way she teaches can be very easy. Pay attention to her stories because they can often be related to the questions of the test. Learn a lot in the class especially in the group presentations.

Great professor who knows her subject well. Many people dont like her because she gets off topic, but other than that, if you do your reading, exams are a piece of cake.

Goes off topic way to much, and quizzes you about her off topic stories! She believes there is only one right way to parent or teach and that she does it the right way. If you have another idea or do something differently she tells you youre wrong. Is not inspirational or encouraging. Attendance is mandatory! She does not take excuses. 0/10

She can be a little tough but if you put in the effort you will pass. If you are looking for an easy A this is not the class. She takes attendance everyday so attendance matters.

This professor was not bad, i passed the class with an A, but she always went off topic and she changed our whole class work in the middle of the semester, so what we were doing before did not matter at all anymore. Overall not a good experience but an easy A if you want to tolerate the disorganization and off topic lectures.....

She's horrible & boring. She goes off-topic & just talks about her life. U have to teach everything to urself from the book, so going to class is a waste of time, but u have to show up or she'll take off points. HOWEVER, IF U READ & TAKE NOTES OF THE BOOK, U'LL EASILY PASS, as her tests and quizzes are based off the book.

the class subject is very understanding but she makes it boring. Shes a nice sweet old lady tho. She does tend to get off topic a lot which makes class feel longer

Ive had Professor Kepner for two semesters so far and I absolutely love her classes! Every person has their bias or things they may not like, but overall, she doesnt give that much homework. She lets us drop 2 of our lowest quizzes or tests and is very understanding :)

Although she seems like she is amazing with kids, her lectures toward college students lack information. She often skips topics related to her class, talks a lot about her self and we seem to never get to the actual lectures. She might be nice but you will not learn much.

She's very intimidating at first, bit I realized it's because she doesn't put up with nonsense and just wants you to succeed. Follow her simple rules (like no phones out) and actually read the textbook and you'll be fine. She grades on group work (usually gives all As) and easy quizzes. Her lectures don't have much to do with the text, so read!

I took all of my Child Development courses with Dr. Kepner, she is a great professor. She is caring and gives GREAT advise for your future career you just need to listen and pay attention. Always sit in the front, read, and participate and you will pass! NO PHONES, make sure they are put away or you will loose points!
