Dr. Bricker is a good Professor, who makes class interesting and fun, while at the same time conveys a lot of information. She is also good at treating students like adults.
Dr. Bricker was an alright teacher for world Civ. taught mostly from the book and kind of babied everyone. on a funny note it took her like 3 weeks how to get the projector running and like a month and a half to finally figure out how to turn the volume it. lol if u want an easy class take her n try not to fall asleep
She is very scattered and expects you to teach yourself how to do the assignments with very little direction.
Dr. Bricker tries to teach you about the subject but gives little to no direction on assignments. She expects WAY too much out of a 3000 level class, maybe she thinks she is teaching a Masters class. You will have no idea how you are doing and pretty much have to cross your fingers and hope you get a good grade. The paper expectation is RIDICULOUS!
Dr.Bricker is awesome. She is really passionate and knows history extremely well. She is a little intimidating at first but if you visit her in her office she is really nice and helpful. You gotta pay attention and take notes and read the books. If you do that you are guaranteed an A
She's an organized disaster. World civ. was fairly easy. She's on a 100 point system with LOTS of extra credit. If you don't like lectures, well, welcome to college, but that's how she teaches. She's open to helping the class: outlines, study guides, note cards on tests, etc. I opted out of the final and had a high A. Do the work, get the grade.
She seems to know what she is talking about but is not very good at communicating her ideas. She is scatter-brained and loses her train of thought all the time. Her powerpoints are just a bunch of pictures that are no help when studying for the test. If you like an organized and detailed professor, don't take her.
I love her! She is very scatter brained though. She assigns reading called etext (dont read it). If you go to every class and take super good notes (bring your laptop because she talks fast) youll do great on the tests.
Dr. Bricker is a wonderful professor! She is tough, but knows her material and presents it in a way you understand. At first she can be intimidating, but with time you will understand what she wants. The reading guides are pointless, but required. And her lectures are fast paced, and a bit scattered. All around though a good teacher!
Bricker is is very passionate and knowledgeable on this subject, and the notes you take in class are CRUCIAL for the tests. She is very scatter brained and confusing with directions, but she knows she can be like this, and does her best to alter the schedule to be fair. Hopefully you don't get a student teacher in class... worst grader ever.
Dr Bricker is very unorganized. You alway have to check banner and your email before class because she changes assignments, that are due and there due dates. Your test are mostly essay tests, which she grades differently depending on the student. She teaches the class like it is an English class. Overall I would not take her class again.
Love her! Although she is very unorganized and her lectures are all over the place she give you all the info for the tests give a study guide and let's you use a notecard on the test gives TONS of easy extra credit. I got a 99 and I am awful at history. And she will work with you. The only people that didn't like her were people that didn't try.
Type everything you turn into her and put your section or she will fail you. If you are a visual learner, do not take her. She gives study guides for every test and allows you to use a note card on the test. She is on a point system and gives lots of extra credit.
She is SUPER unorganized. Her thougts, lectures, all of it. She wasn't clear with instuctions. She'sfunny which made lectures more interesting. She had an assistant when I had her and they would both grade tests (essays) differently so grades were not always fair. Lots of extra crdit opportunities & takes suggestions for what they should be.
Class was very easy, but she's as disorganized a teacher as I have ever seen. She definitely knows her stuff, but her inability to keep things in order can cause some major confusion.
Dr. Bricker is an amazing person! She has a great personality, she's easy to get along with, and she's always willing to help you out! As for the book assignments, I visited her several times during her office hours and she helped out A LOT! Her class helped me with the transition to college.
She was very disorganized. i had her in 2010 and nothing really got done. She was very knowledgeable however was not always the best to explain things. oh and it took her 2 and a half months to figure out how to use the projector and another 3 weeks to figure out how to turn on sound. lol
She was a great teacher and very nice! Not very helpful but my friend said she was a lot more helpful in her office hours. She's very disorganized but funny and makes class interesting! Class is mandatory but not boring and her tests can be hard but she will usually let you use notes. Extra credit can be a big difference so go to it all!
Best teacher for European history. If you are a history major or just taking your required courses, then Bricker is the lady for you. She is slightly scatterbrained and if asked a question, will sometimes go on a tangent trying to give the best possible answer. She works hard trying to help every student succeed. By far my favorite teacher at NGCSU
She is all over the place and jumps from subject to subject during lecture making it hard to take notes. Her extra credit was the only thing that kept me from failing. Her harsh grading did not help the situation either. Do not take her...
Definitely not an easy class for people for those of us who aren't history majors. She was super unorganized and teaches only through lecture and a video here and there. Tests are all essay and are difficult to finish if your class is 50 minutes. But there's a crazy amount of extra credit! Wonderful helpful lady, but she gave me my first ever C :(
I'm probably one of the few people who enjoyed going to her class. Her power points and how she presented the notes are really scattered and she can be confusing, but if you do everything she says and look over the study guides, you'll pass the class but you do need to work, you can't slack off. she also gives easy extra credit opportunities.
Dr. Bricker jumps around and is often rude in class. Definitely not one of my favorites. However, she does give several extra credit opportunities if you need to boost your grade. If you can handle her attitude, take her.
Dr. Bricker jumps around a lot and has a hard time sticking to one subject. She doesn't care what you do in class, but you cannot pass if you don't read the textbook, as her lectures just skim over the top of the surface and do not give any hardcore facts. If you can focus and learn on your own with the textbook, you will have no problem.
She is very scatter-brained and her lectures are often out of order. Her tests require you to synthesize information, not "memorize and regurgitate." She is sarcastic and cusses in class. (I do not mind, but some people might.) I like her as a person and she is passionate about what she does, but I would not take her again.
Great lectures, however she is a tough, inconsistent grader. I spent as much time in her office arguing over her grading as I did in class. If you are pissed that you failed a test or something, GO TO HER OFFICE. This is a requirement to pass. Her organization skills need a lot of work, expect to have to correct her grading. Do not recommend her.
Her class is extremely hard. She skips around during lectures and is very scatter brained which makes it difficult to follow. Also, she isn't very helpful during office hours.
Dr. Bricker is a really nice lady. She knows what she is talking about for sure, but she has a hard time staying on topic during lectures. Her directions are always unclear and she changes her mind all the time. Her tests are really hard, but she is always willing to help you during her office hours, so go to them!
Bricker is passionate about history but she skips around a lot. She had 10 difficult online quizzes and they aren't worth a lot of your grade. Her 2 tests are hard; try and do the study guide she provides. Her class is pretty confusing but she gives a few empty weeks to catch up. She's nice and helpful in office hours. Do well on the 1 essay.
She is super scattered brained. She honestly never knows what she is doing. She will forget what is said, and change due dates all the time. DO NOT take her class. You will never know what is needed for the assignment.
Love Doc. Bricker. Im a history major and try to take a class with her as often as possible. Slightly disorganized, can get off subject, loves class participation. If you have any issues, go see her in her office, she will stay with you until you understand. some papers, reading is mandatory, showing up is too. Sit in front and talk to hereasy A
She is a rude person. If you go to class and pay attention it is not hard to get an A, but it can be very frustrating. She changes her mind on many things often and goes through lecture too quickly causing you to miss a lot of information.
Dr. Bricker is a lovely person if you talk to her outside of class. She is very passionate about her subject, and has a habit of jumping around subjects. Do the extra credit, and it will help tremendously if you aren't doing so hot in the class. Go to her office hours. She will help you if you go to her. She can be very vague about what she wants.
Bricker is not the best teacher, I'll say that right off the back. She is nice, but can be rude at times only if you're just acting dumb. Tests aren't too bad, but it just seemed like we lectured over way more information that we actually needed on the exams. Hard grader when it comes to the essay. Make sure you do your bibliography well thats all.
Dr. Bricker is incredibly unorganized. Only have 2 tests and a paper (8 pages). The tests are pretty difficult. I didnt do any of the reading, just took very detailed class notes. She gives a TON of extra credit! If you do it, you will EASILY pass. I did not do overly well on anything, but did all the extra credit and made an A.
She was very unorganized. She is also very opinionated and likes things her way and her way only! We only had to write one paper( 8 pages), but since she only likes things her way it made writing the paper very hard! There were two tests, both extremely hard! Stayed up all night studying and barely passed the tests! Go to office hours!
Overall good professor, the lectures go a little long though. Be prepared to participate in class discussions.
Bricked is a great professor that knows her stuff. I recommend typing your notes because she talks SO fast. However, if you ask her to repeat something or slow down, she will be more than glad to do so. STUDY FOR HER TESTS even if she says that the multiple choice will be from the online quizzes. You get to use a notecard for each test. Good luck!
Dr. Bricker is very knowledgable and passionate about what she teaches. However, she is very unorganized, grades very slow, and doesn't really give you much to go off of when trying to study for the tests. You can squeeze extra credit things out of her. Her office hours are when she is mean so go in prepared to battle to prove your point if you go
She is very scatterbrained, but if you focus and take notes, the tests will be easy. She also gives you a study guide and a chance to use a 3*5 notecard to have with you during the tests. She is very willing to help if you take the time to ask for it. She will not do anything for you. Great professor overall!
Dr. Bricker is extremely confusing. She is not clear on what you should study and often gives you rabbit trail information, so you end up overwhelmed. Tests are hard and she gives you too much to do in very little time. She's disorganized, unclear, but an extremely harsh grader. Would not recommend.
My favorite prof this semester. She loves history and she wants you to think critically and ask questions. Interacting with her and participating in class will really help your grade. It is crucial to take notes in her class and to ask for clarification. She takes forever to grade, but besides that is a great teacher.
Dr Bricker is a hilarious teacher but very disorganized and unclear but it can work to your advantage sometimes. She gives plenty extra credit opportunities. Her tests are super tough so take good notes and make your notecard detailed as she allows you to use it on the test. Also the online textbook is not needed I never even read it.
Gave good feedback for the first half of the semester than essentially disappeared until grades were due to be finalized. An exam had incorrect questions on it and never replied to emails and requests for it to be changed. Finally gave up (had an A in the class anyways). Passionate, but unorganized. Wouldn't take a class again unless necessary.
At first, I wasn't sure how I felt about her. She can be pretty rude in class, but in her office hours she is super awesome. Her tests are not fun. Her lectures can be boring. Make sure to take quizzes(most are on quizlet) and do the discussion labs. No matter how good your thesis is, she will still say its not a thesis on your paper.
She is very unorganized. We only had one full test. The first test, she couldn't print out. The last test she did print but half the questions were missing. Barely anything we learned was on the tests. Be prepared for a very spontaneous class. She is a very humorous person and very nice but not my favorite prof.
I don't recommend taking Bricker if you can help it. Other comments I have read say that she is rude and unorganized- spot on! She can be so rude for no reason and every project was a hassle because she was so vague and kept changing due dates/directions. In one word she's unprofessional. If you take her be ready to be constantly irritated.
She can be pleasant but it doesn't make up for her random bursts of rudeness. She was never straightforward with assignments and due dates so I ended up doing a couple of projects more than once. She can't tolerate other opinions. She really doesn't have her act together and is a difficult professor to have.
I would not recommend Dr. Bricker for World History. She was dealing with personal issues when I had her, so maybe that's why her class was a mess, but it was very unorganized and I did not learn anything. It says we need 4 books and we've only used one very briefly. She gets very distracted easily when talking. Don't take if you want to learn.
She was very unprofessional for most of the semester. She was going through some family issues and frequently had to cancel class, and she didn't start giving online assignments until the 3rd or 4th class cancellation. We used the books, but most of the reading was outside of class and discussion was minimal. I feel like I didn't learn any history.
Professor Bricker's class for HIST 1112 was very disorganized. She was not clear about any due dates and would normally give us about a day to read a chapter from our textbook and do a writing assignment. She does not give you grades during the semester. She gives you feedback and at the end of the semester then you find out your grade.
Professor Bricker is very, VERY scatterbrained. She has ideas in her head, and she tells the class, then changes her mind the next class, she often times will drop assignments on the class without any notice or warning. You do really have to pay attention and take good notes because she expects you to use those notes on the homework assignments
Professor Bricker never gave clear feedback. She acted like she had clear expectations but she definitely did not. She can be very rude at times, and does not like for others to have opposing opinions. I would recommend dropping her class if possible.
If you do not share the same views as her then you are wrong and your views do not matter. You are not allowed to have your opinions in this History class when doing the discussions, even though the whole point of discussion is to state facts and opinions. Not a friendly person. I would not recommend this teacher.
The grading criteria was unclear, the whole semester I thought I was failing the class . See never put grade on D2L or when she did they were unclear. Never missed a day of class, told end of semester I missed six days. When confronted she was rude about the whole situation. She also made the class cry during confrontations in her office.
Dr. Bricker is the best professor at the University of North Georgia. I would 10 out of 10 recommend that you take any class taught by her.
She's such a sweet lady, but she is very scattered. It's very easy for the whole class to fall behind, her tests are very confusing (not difficult, just badly constructed) everyone has problems with them.
Wouldn't take her class again, but she honestly wasn't that bad. Nine units, with a quiz a discussion post for each one. One 800-900 word essay. Midterms are very difficult, but no final. Tons of assigned reading. Fairly tough grader, but she'll give feedback. She drops your two lowest discussion/quiz scores. Sometimes unclear on assignments.
She is funny, so take her for a laugh if you have room on a schedule. Though the entire class is a joke, and you have to teach yourself everything. She goes off topic daily. She assigns two group projects with terrible instructions. Guaranteed that she will put something wrong on her D2L, every assignment... It is just aggravating to deal with.
have to cite everything in discussion post and responding to classmate discussion post. Very tough grader. Lots of reading. Hard to contact sometimes.
When one arrives at university, undoubtedly they arrive with a preconceived notion of what it should be like. Dr. Bricker destroys the foundations of learning, and molds you into a new creation. Logic doesn't matter. All rules are fluid. If you expected order and consistency, leave now. If you're up for an adventure, go for it pal. 6/10 meh
Dr. Bricker is very disorganized. She will mess up your grades, she will give poor instructions, and she will blame the students if anything goes wrong. She does not care whether you pass or fail, and she is very unlikely to stick to her syllabus. Make sure to do the extra credit; it will suddenly turn into a real grade halfway through the semester
She is not very clear on any assignment she gives. She tries she really does but her students are left wondering what we need to do and how to do it and we end up going over it in class wasting lecture time. Her final is optional and discussions are also optional but you get 5% extra credit if you do them.
Easily the least prepared teacher Ive ever had. Not only does she not make tests until the night before, but she does absolutely no review for them. You probably wont know what your grade is because she waits to put them in until a couple days after the final. She only lectures. No helpful PowerPoints. Notes are either a mess or nonexistent.
Does not give any real criteria for assignments, and hands out failing grades to people that followed exact instructions stating they did not follow her directions. She changes her syllabus all the time, and does not go over anything relevant whatsoever in her lectures. Tests are more based on her personal opinion than fact
Not super easy, very few assignments, you have to talk, extra credit offered frequently. Grading doesn't make sense and she will not give you and slack.
Bricker is very opinionated even when it comes to grading. If she disagrees with you she will deduct points. She is all over the place and does not have a clear set of guide lines. Her tests have things on them that are not mentioned in class.
Her source summaries come off as simple, but when returned, it turns out she does not know what a full sentence actually is.
This class is not very organized to say the least. The course schedule changed several times, and assignment criteria was often not clear. Also, don't expect to get any grades back until grades are due at the end of the semester. However, I learned a lot in this class solely because of the excellent readings she assigned.
Bricker definitely makes her lectures less dreadful than other professors with her humor. However, she is definitely a tough grader. Take time on your essays, and just because she's a history major doesn't mean she won't mark you for your grammar or comma splices. Quizzes are online, and make sure to take notes-she let us use them on our tests
Dr. Bricker will not answer you if you call her by anything other than, Dr. Bricker. Hope you're ready to work because she has weekly assignments which are made up of a chapter of reading a week. On top of this, you have to work on a wikipedia page and this contributes to your grade critically. If you do not like to present, do not take this class.
Professor Bricker is very scatterbrained and has a hard time remembering things she states in class. She obviously cares about her subject, but it can be hard for students to care about her class because going to class seems pointless, but attendance does count. Advice- take notes outside of class from the book and follow along in the class lecture
Dr. Bricked was a whirlwind from the beginning. The first test we ever took she accidentally put two right answers on most questions and ended up giving everyone 100s and bringing donuts to apologize. Then she mixed up herself due dates and ended up giving us a free test grade, followed up with donuts. She made her final a short answer.
I am taking Dr. Bricker's online history class. This being a short session class, things move quite quickly. For our midterm, we were allowed 1 page of notes from the chapters. This test was 72 questions and included obscure questions from the depths of our text. Don't take this class if you want to focus on your upper level courses.
For a consistent straight A student, Dr. Bricker's class might be the one that will break me. Dr. Bricker grades solely on opinion and not by your abilities. If she disagrees with you, there is no arguing it. A history class should not be this strenuous. She's very disorganized too when it comes to instruction and grading. DO NOT TAKE IF YOU CAN!
Dr. Bricker has been by far the worst experience Ive ever had in college. As many others have stated, avoid her classes if you have the option. Im a typical A student that works diligently in every class I participate in. It feels like no matter how hard you work this professor will somehow make you feel like a failure.
I took her online short semester class and she was really straightforward with assignments. She was also very caring about her students. It gave me hope to keep going in school lol. M
She is a very kind person, but very disorganized. Many unnecessary homework assignments every week. Her tests are convoluted and her grading system is unclear. On one test, the guy to my right got a 126 (only 15 bonus points were possible) the guy to my left go a 41. Rarely returns emails. Cancels class nearly once a week.
Bricker is a very kind lady. However, she is very unorganized. & She takes FOREVER to grade assignments. She can grade base on her opinion sometimes. Each exam is open note. This class is an easy A if, you attend class, participate in lectures, do your weekly quizzes/assignment and do your research before exams.
Dr. Bricker is very kind and considerate. shes very disorganized though. we had to buy a book and homework access online but it ended up not working 90% of the time and she tried everything she could to help. eventually we stoped using it. takes her forever to grade assignments. grades based on opinion a lot
Bricker is a very eccentric sort of professor, but she's really fun. Basically all of the homework you will have in her class are the weekly source summaries on Wednesdays and the quizzes on Sundays. The source summaries aren't hard at all once you get the hang of them, they're just tedious. As for the tests, just remember to take good notes.
Dr. Bricker is a very kind person. She really made an effort to connect with her students even though it was an online class. She had multiple video chat meetings with each of us and in small groups. She humanized the class and was flexible and encouraging. She did not give fluff work. She was flexible and accommodating. Best online teacher Ive had
She was my Prof through eCore. I took her this summer of 2020 and she's very chill. No busy work. Just discussions and quizzes (easy) with one essay and a midterm. I think COVID played an important role in this though. I would say she grades a little tough considering she will take 3 points off of NOTHING and gave me a 97. Anyways, she's great.
Dr. Bricker is a great teacher and gives very interactive lectures. There is a fair amount of homework but its very reasonable. I would take her again absolutely.
Dr. Bricker is super fun and she is very passionate about history. She makes learning interesting and fun by including games. She can be quite disorganized which adds a little stress, but as long as you complete assignments and study for exams you will make an A.
Honestly a understanding teacher and one of my least stressful classes ever. You do read a lot but its beneficial and games throughout the semester are included. She may get stressed with the circumstances (covid) but will do what she feels will benefit everyone in the best way. Loved her towards the end & will never forget her!
There seems to be no structure. all of her material is from the previous semester including due dates. She does not use D2L for course instruction. Instead it is spread across Flipgrid, Slack, and Perusall. The instructions on how to use these sites was posted to a HIST2000 Slack site that is not accessible to her HIST1111 students
I'm not sure how this class was before COVID, but now there seems to be no structure AT ALL. She does not use D2L for assignments, but combines other things and puts assignments there. Put in automatic 0's at the start of the semester, but is taking so long to update grades that you have no clue about how you are actually doing in the class. AVOID.
Do not take this professor if you value your sanity! Never available. Directions and expectations for the class very unclear. Tough grader!! Will leave messages and emails for days and weeks, unanswered. Very unprofessional. Not a great lecturer; every other word is "um". Very disorganized. Expects grad students to carry the burden of class.
Do Not take this professor if you value your time and sanity. She does not grade on time, she is extremely unorganized, never available, takes days and weeks to answer messages and emails, and leans on her grad students to teach and lead the class. I'm a A student and this professor tried my very last nerve to the point I reported her.
She was really funny and was attentive to her students in class. A lot of participation during her lectures. She was a fun teacher. I liked her a lot and the tests were very easy, not a tough grader at all.
Dr. Bricker is very nice and wants her students to do well. She can be unorganized at times but overall, her class is pretty easy. Make sure you actually go to class though because a lot of what she counts is on attendance. There can be times where she gets off track in her lectures but other than that shes an okay professor.
Professor Brickers class was my favorite. She is super eccentric and fun and there are lots of group discussions and games. There is not much work in class just quizzes every Friday online and the midterm and final are open note.
She does not seem to care about her students, even the ones who participate consistently and have an interest in the topic. She was disorganized and often just rambled about stuff that didn't even appear on any of our tests. I crammed for the final, but she ended up canceling it and giving us a simple assignment instead. Do not take her class.
Nothing in this class makes since at all. She does not teach or give you a chance to figure out what you are supposed to be doing. Everything in the class is off topic including one on one conversations for help. Much too hard on grading papers when students are figuring this whole class out without any help. Students teach other students. Horrible
highly disorganized, main grad is a group project where part of your grade is dependent on how other students view you, half of the time in class spent on a tangent, overall, didn't learn anything and would not recommend her as a professor
Very funny lady, but honestly bad at teaching. She is highly disorganized and lacks communication skills. My entire class had a problem with her. I would not recommend her to anyone looking to take History.
This was the worst class I've every taken. There weren't any exams or quizzes, and our major grades for the class were different assignments for our group project. She never provided rubrics for assignments, was a harsh grader, and never went over material in lectures. She moved to Michigan in the middle of the semester with no warning.
I love Dr. Bricker. Yes sometimes we get off topic but, we have fun and we discuss what we need to but, she has a passion for Victorian History and it shows. She takes the students thoughts and suggestions to help gear the course the best way we learn. I loved all our discussions. We had 10 students but it was GREAT! I would take her again.
She does NOT know how to communicate with you, she does not tell you what you did wrong on anything so it's impossible to actually learn anything from this class. This class isn't really difficult, but you will learn to dislike her by the end of the semester. Every class is a certified yap session.
Ms. Bricker is by far one of the most obnoxious and disorganized teachers I've ever had. Her lectures are literally just ripping from whatever book she has. She also does little to nothing to help you if you're struggling in her class.
This class is very difficult to understand. Your notes are harshly graded every week and the exams make no sense. The homework itself is very simple but graded very unfairly. If you're taking this class, make sure you make a friend to try and help you.
She is extremely unorganized and her lectures make no sense. The class was a hybrid class and she struggled to situate technology for over half of the semester. The entire class is based on the text book. She expects you to take notes while reading each week. The assignments are hard to understand, do not recommend.
Dr. Bricker was never clear with instructions. She was very late in putting grades in. A positive is that she gave barely any homework and the class was basically virtual, but she is not tech savvy. I would take her class if I didn't want to learn anything/work hard, but the stress of not having grades put in and being confused is not worth it.
Practically an online class which wasn't what I asked for. harsh notes grader except the notes were impossible to take when it came to her PowerPoint since there was never anything written on them. I'm a history major who wants to go into the history field and did awful in this class, she shouldn't be listed as a hybrid class.
Overall, i didnt have any big problems with her. The notes that we had to turn in every week were pretty easy. Just make sure it makes sense. The problem i did have with her is that she is a really bad communicator and would often forget what she is doing mid lecture. The only thing i liked about her class were the easy online assignments.
I took World History 1 with Dr. Bricker and it was an okay class. Her grading criteria are contradictory and are not always clear. She does not answer emails unless you are very persistent. Her class is also poorly organized on D2L, and sometimes material from previous semesters pops up. I wouldn't recommend this class at all.
Bad at using zoom. She was extremely bad at answering emails. Never put grades in & grades were unclear. She often just went on rants throughout the lecture and expected us to write everything down. The lecture slides were not helpful at all, nothing was ever written on them. Do not take her. BUT easy weekly homework, and tests are done w/ her
This is a very easy class. I recommend 100%. She is not the greatest teacher, but she is still decent. If you put any effort into this class, you will receive an A. She is also a very caring teacher. She gets that we are humans and have lives. If you do not participate in class, she does get agitated, but overall if you need this credit take her!
Honestly, the class workload was easy to manage. People who are complaining about this are either too lazy to do any work or just not very bright. Nearly all the online assignments were collaborative. They had simple instructions and all you needed to do was follow them. Only three meetings were in person and the rest were on zoom.
World History 1 is an easy class, but Dr. Bricker's structure is very confusing. At times, her grading would contradict her statements. Even though it is very difficult to reach her, the overall class is simple as it is. Read the chapter, take the quiz, and do a primary source analysis. Midterm and Final did not include lockdown browser.
The class workload was manageable, though the professor struggled with technology at times. Completing the easy weekly assignments and following the textbook closely can get you an A. unstuck study was a helpful tool for studying.
Class was really easy. So little homework. Most meetings were online then three in person classes. Test were based on textbook. Homework were very simple. Easy A.
It is honestly impressive how badly this women has managed the class. She has consisted missed dates for assignments on the syllabus and been nigh unreachable despite providing no instruction outside of the syllabus. If she is still here in 5 years, UNG does not deserve respect as an institution.
Dr. Bricker's class is a good online course to take if you need the credit. You will have a good number of online readings each week which is required. You will also have a test each week (not proctored). The mid-term and final exams (proctored) are easy if you study the topics she gives you. She is a fair grader and responds quickly.
Professor Bricker was okay. I took this class online and she was very disorganized. Sometimes her assignments were poorly explained and just didn't make sense. She was nice but it was online so I didn't have many interactions with her. The content wasnt so hard honestly, only the midterm was proctered. Also quizzes every week on the reading.
