Ms. Reed is great! She has a very detailed syllabus that she follows verbatim. She answers questions in and out of class. Gives extra credit options and holds a review day before each test.

Horrific teachings skills - she loves to listen to her own voice more than teach you anything. Her 3 tests are HIGHLY detailed and can be difficult. Only good is the extra credit she offers but even those are worth a fraction (literally 10/400) and hardly make a difference on your final grade

Lots of writing. One-hour tests include 30 questions AND 250 word essay. Test set up so you can't go back to previous question to change an answer, so no skipping hard questions to go back later if time allows. The essay question is in the middle of the test! Does not drop any grades! I am a history buff, but I HATE this class. Not recommended!

She's the best. She is ready for questions and always willing to help her students any time they need it. The only downfall is her exams and HW; they are difficult but manageable; I say show up to class, take notes, and ask questions because what she talks about in class is what will be on the exam.

Professor Reed was fantastic. She's so wholesome and genuinely wants the students to succeed. She provides so much extra credit, you won't know what to do with it. Assignments were very interesting and the tests were very simple if you follow the reviews she provides. Loved taking this class. I wish I could take her again next semester.

Mrs. Reed gives a ton of extra credit, which is very easy and quick to do, she has clear grading criteria on her papers, and she gives reviews for all tests that have all the same questions as the tests. She is always willing to help and giving feedback on papers. It would be hard to fail this class because of how much extra credit is offered.

I read the reviews here about Mrs. Reed before taking her class, and here I am writing one after passing and getting an A. I have NEVER been into history, throughout junior high/highschool the highest grade I would get for a history class was probably a high C or low B. Mrs. Reed is truly amazing and offers a ton of simple and fun extra credit.

Took Professor Reed for 1301 and 1302, if I needed another class in her field, I'd take it! She's very nice! Class is straightforward and tests straight from the lectures, which are well-organized and often include videos. She recommends the textbook but I got through both classes without. Also offers daily extra credit and time in class to do it.

I LOVE Professor Reed, there is only 3 tests, and a final but you can choose to not take the final if you did good on the other tests. She does 2 extra credit prompts each week, and there are 4 writing journals but she drops the lowest of those as well. She is super easy if you pay attention and show up to class. I would take her again.

Professor Reed is very caring and wants you to succeed in her class. She sent me several reminders throughout the semester to remind me about assignments. She always replies promptly to questions. There was always feedback on assignments and very clear expectations. One of the best professors I've had.

Took her for Summer II. Really enjoyed her class. Very fast paced but sends reminders. She was very clear on what is expected from the students and graded everything very fast! 4 DB 200 words, reply DB 150 words, 4 Journals 300 words, and 4 exams w/50 multiple choice. Overall it was a smooth class, lots of reading but doable. Definitely take her!

If you have any questions do not hesitate to reach out her. She is extremely kind and sends gentle reminders before assignments are due. You will have journal entry, discussion board, and exams with each unit. She drops the lowest grade for each. I enjoyed this course and found a new love for history! I will be taking her next semester for 1302.

One of my favorite professors of the year! She is very concise and makes sure to highlight within her lectures the things that will be important to know for the exams. She provides multiple study guides for various ways people study. The exams were very straightforward and the reviews helped a ton. She also gives out 50 points worth of extra credit

I enjoyed 1301 so I decided to take 1302 with Professor Reed. Exams are 50 questions with an 80-minute time limit. 4 journals (short essays), 15 quizzes, and 4 discussion boards. She does drop some quizzes, 1 journal, and 1 exam (not the final) Some lectures won't have info that is in exams which is frustrating along with all the reading required.

I took this class during my summer semester so just a month, it was very fast paced but also it was pretty easy as long as you read the book and keep up, she values explanations on how you go to an answer a lot more than just the answer its self, she was very considerate with sending out reminders when the due date came up which i really loved.

Probably one of my favorite professors. Took her for world civ 1 and 2. Her class mainly consisted of lectures and tests. We had one project per class (one for world civ 1 and one for 2). We rarely had homework other than studying. Her lectures were interesting and enjoyable to listen to. Would definitely take her again.

Ive taken Prof. Reed for both World Civ 1 and 2 and enjoyed my time in both her classes. Show up to her lectures because her class grades mainly consists of tests from lecture info. We also had to write a 5 page paper in both classes. Outside of that not much work. Loved taking her and Im glad to have had her as a professor. Highly recommend.

Professor Reed is a passionate and engaging history professor; her lectures are well-organized and filled with great details. The workload is very easy: weekly discussions of around 250 words, in-class group assignments, and five online unit tests. If it's your first-ever history class in college, I 100% recommend this professor.

I LOVED her, so much so, I'm taking her for 1302 in the Spring. There's 5 exams, 5th is final; lowest of first 4 drops. 5 journals, drops lowest. Discussions boards. In class group assignments over what the lesson was, this probably my least favorite part; but it's not enough to say “don't take her class.” She's funny, and cares about her students.
