Her lectures were just a waste of time. The tests covered only the material she thought she covered in class.

She is a all around terrible teacher. Will give repeat lectures because she forgets which class she has given a lecture to. This class is 75% opinion based and 25% factual. If you really want to learn, invest in the book not the teacher. She just likes to hear the sound of her own voice.

Dr. Goldberg is an exceptional teacher. She is fascinating to listen to and she is FAIR. The class is labor intensive, so be prepared to work. This was an excellent class.

I received a good grade, so this isn't sour grapes. The computer graded mid-term and final was the only feedback all term. Many weekly assignments turned in, but none graded by the teacher. Moreover, no teacher comments in the discussion boards for this online course, save for announcements about technical problems, which were frequent. Bad Class!

This professor puts in minimal effort into teaching this class. Due dates change on a whim, tests are added in bulk, she even changed the dates of spring break to accommodate her own schedule. She doesn't respond to emails or answer questions posted on the discussion board. Horrible class.

Probably the worst professor I have ever had. Just finishing the summer online course. You will have no idea what the assingments are in advance. Extremely disorganized, nothing gets graded, things get posted late. There is A LOT of work, not necessarily hard but A LOT. I would highly recommend not taking a class with her unless you have to.

Dr. Goldberg is an excellent teacher. Be prepared to work hard, but it is well worth. Her class is university level. I took her online class BUS LAW 12 during the summer and I loved it. She responded the email very fast and any concern you have with the material. If you really want to learn about Law take her class.

The worst professor I have ever taken I am a 3.80GPA graduate of CSUF, so I'm used to hard work, but I can't stand busy work. She makes a lot of assignments that are practically meaningless. Then, she is late to post them and grade them. She should be teaching 2nd graders where busy work and hand holding is the norm.

Do not take this teacher unless you have to!! I am an A student and i am used to working hard, but the amount of busy work she assigns is absurd. She won't give you feedback and does not grade anything until the very end. There's a ton of reading and quizzes are very difficult even with an open book. 18 hrs a week is underestimated. AVOID.

VERY BAD professor. Unclear. Cancels class at a moments notice. Drops you without letting you know at least one class before. LAZY. Her voice is annoying and she has no idea how to teach. Now I know why she was disbarred. She is a complete failure. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS. DO NOT!

Good teacher in my opinion. If you show up and turn in the assignments you will get an A, it's either you do them or not. She cancelled a lot of class and didn't end up getting to a lot of material that was supposed to be taught. But overall a easy class and I learned slot of important information.

I think she is actually a sweet lady and she teaches this class well. Students don't liker her because she does make this class University level. But if you do all the work, read all the chapters and follow the instructions to the letter, you will get an A. Only major problem with her is that she does not grade many things until it is too late.

From the first day, it is obvious that Professor Goldberg cares about students' education. She is extremely helpful, experienced, and knowledgeable. If you attend every class and complete all assignments, you should get an A. One tip I have for the class, which is stressed in class, is to read all handouts and directions.

LOTS of material, and a lot of it isn't relevant to the class. Online quizzes and tests are relatively easy (lots of time and obviously open book). Don't expect assignments graded in a timely manner, but it seems like she grades more on completion than content. One (massive) group project, which really sucks. 12-week format; very fast-paced.

Terrible teacher. She gives tons of extra content to read/watch/listen to that does not really pertain to the class. She did not grade assignments in a timely manner. There's very little feedback from her. She's very rude and unprofessional. Take someone else. If you have to take her, try not to get on her bad side or your grade will suffer.

If you don't like to go to class and you're lazy, then this class isn't for you. She makes her expectations very clear from the first day. She teaches the class well. All of the tests are open book and open note, and most of the test questions come from the homework assignments. Because I worked hard and showed interest she raised by B to an A.

Ms Goldberg made her expectations and class guidelines clear from the beginning. She offered extra material as well as audio lessons. The class required a lot of time and even more effort, but if you read the syllabus you won't be surprised. She replied to e-mails quickly and gave feedback through discussion board posts on projects and assignments.

The busy work in this class is absurd plus online blackboard site is overwhelming + hard to follow. There is a ton of clutter and if you ask a question by email she responds only to basically call you an idiot because you do not speak to her standards.

She warns at the beginning of the semester that our time commitment is 12 hrsweek. On avg I spend 6 hrs reading, 3-4 hrs on videos, and 2 hrs taking quizzesexams. AND THEN SHE ADDS A GROUP PROJECT. Completely unnecessary. Also, she is rude. Knows her law, but needs to learn about education. Interesting material, terrible personalityteacher.

Let me start off by saying, I am a good student. Okay, now that that's out of the way, I have never encountered a more irrational grader. The kind who gives you a 22% on a project you are sure you would get AT LEAST a B on in another class. Doesn't grade anything until the last week which leaves you blindsided as to what her expectations are.

I would run for the hills if you can. Do not take this class. I worked very hard and struggled every week to make sure I had all of the homework and all of the lecture reading done. This class will teach you a little and stress you out a lot. The teacher is condescending and rude and does not respect her students.
