What Students Say

She isn't really that clear on what she wants you to do, and she doesn't grade the work until a few weeks later so if you have a similar assignment you'll mess up continually until she grades and you realize what you've been doing wrong but at that point it's too late

ENC1101L - 3.0 rating

She doesn't care for you and your well being and will speak to you as if you're in the 1st grade :-)

Good professor, a little boring. Didn't NEED a book, everything we needed to read in class was online. If you do the papers exactly how she wants them done, you will have no problem in this class. She is nice but will call you out in front of the whole class if you did something wrong or didn't do something you should've! Easy pass!!

she does not explain how she wants the papers and then will take points off for not doing it right. She is also a hard grader so make sure you put time into your papers and ALWAYS read the assigned readings beofre class because she will call you out. And if you don't know it she will give you points off for that day. But overall shes alright

This class is based on the assigned readings and there are a lot of them. The papers that are assigned are on very vague topics but if you did the readings and participated in class you will do fine. Attendance in this class is mandatory but Prof. Fielder does a good job at making literature interesting.

I really enjoyed the teacher. She is really interested in what students have to say. Not a hard greader. It is really easy to pass IF YOU READ.. The questions are 2nd grade stuff if you read and you have to b/c you need to write 3 papers on the stories of your choice and the topic. She is a fair grader as long as u meet the min. requirement.

She is more than fair. Late papers are no points off. Know the readings before class, don't get called out. Good tactic is do class participation anyother way than disussin material if you're not prepared. Fillibuster straying conversation. The mid-term and final not hard if you just know the author, story, and whatever vague quote she throws at u.

Professor Fiedler is an extraordinarily kind and caring professor that knows her subject that she teaches. The class is easy because all you have to do is three papers and one presentation that is a literary work that you have picked for the course. All the reading you have to do is the work that you have chosen to write your paper on for the class
