Dr. Wheeler's class was an experirence. It wasn't very hard b/c she offers so much extra credit. I reccomend doing the extra credit, b/c the exams are hard. I was exempt from the final b/c of all my extra credit, and I only got "C"s on the tests

it is an easy class as long as u show up. there are so many assignments that are quick and easy u have something to fall back on if u dont do so well on quizzes. quizzes are pretty easy. she talks with her eyes closed but the class is easy

She talks with her eyes closed, yes. She is boring, yes. And she may not come across as a genius, but she's nice and down to earth (something that seems rare). She's fair in grading and makes sure you know what's required and when assignments are due.

She's my advisor actually, and she's there when you need her. Her exams are hard when you compared to other plsc profs, but she helps you out with the quizzes and the extra credit assignments. If you show up and participate, you'll be fine :)

I really like Dr. Wheeler. She's very informative and seems to know a lot about Latin America. Her tests aren't bad, but definitely cover the areas. She has a lot of interesting information, if you pay attention. I'll take her again if I can. I recommend.

Good class. I learned a lot. She really wants you to learn the stuff. She tries to make it interesting. Tests are hard, but she'll help you figure out the questions if your confused.

Learned a lot about World Politics. She tried to make it fun with debates. You have to go to class and participate to get the most out of it. Tests can be tough, but she'll help you out.

Good Professor

It took awhile to get the hang of her tests, but I learned a lot. She's a nic lady. She gives lots of opportunities for extra credit if you

Most people in the class don't know anything about world politics, so its hard for her to get a discussion going, but she tries to involve students with debates and current events. You have to really study for the tests.

This is my favorite class so far. She really knows a lot about Latin American Politics. She was a Peace Corps Volunteer there. There are 3 papers, 2 exams and a presentation though, so it's a lot of work.

She knows a bunch about foreign governments. Very easy class to take if you go to most of them. She was somewhat flighty sometimes though.

Very easy. If you want a blow-off class for World Politics, take her. The tests are pretty much verbatim right out of the book and the book's Web site. She tried to make discussions, but everyone was apathetic. RECOMMEND!

Excellent political science prof. She is in sync with everyone in the class and makes adjustments smoothly and accordingly. Very knowledgeable and understanding towards non-majors. Take her!

Dr. Wheeler is awesome. I had a rough semester and she was very understanding. She is a great teacher that helps you whenever you need it. Whoever said she looked like a bird....well your right! Take her if you can!

I learned a lot in her class. Dr. Wheeler gives you opportunities to earn bonus points by having a group competition by identifying world leaders. Also gives bonus points for good attendance. Drops 1 lowest test score. and a amazing class.

nice women and an easy teacher, i would take her again

this is an easy class. the work load isnt that bad at all, and the class really seems to go by fast.

her class is not hard at all. hardly any work but it's all relevant to the tests.

Wheeler is a great teacher. I was not even interested in Political Science till I was in her class. Sure the class is easy, but it is great for someone with no background. I would take her again.

I enjoyed her some much. Great professor to hava at IUP. Makes the class interesting and she knows what she is talking about. Just showing up is an "A". If you have to take PLSC 101, Take HER !!!

The nicest most understanding prof. at IUP.... the easiest class in the world... you have to be a lazy moron not to get an A in her class... she's a sweetheart.

Horribly boring, rushes through material, I didn't learn a thing. But, she's nice and its an easy "A"

Dude, i took this class as a first semester freshmen. Easy, map test were easier than ones i took in high school, debates were a joke, debate papers were a joke(didnt turn one in and still managed an A) plus, if u r satified with ur grade, u dont have to take the final. TAKE WHEELER if you want easy

If you choose/have to take PLSC-TAKE HER! u could study for the map quizes b4 class and get an A. don't have to show up to pass! I went to class and everyday I slept from the time she started talking until class ended & I'm getting an A. Only emails u need are the one w/ the quiz countries. Cake.

This was the easiest class ever, you don't have to go to class to pass. Just get the book and know the answers to the study guide and you'll be fin. No classes on Fri, made me interested in politics

Easy A. Only go to class when there is a map quiz, debate or test. She's one of those profs that talks but nothing really comes out.

Great professor! I've already learned a lot. You have to study for the tests though, they're not easy.

Dr. Wheeler is the best professor. She makes class interesting with a variety of methods of teaching. She gets us involved. I learn more from her than I've learned from all the other professors combined. She'll help you out if you have any questions about an assignment. She's very helpful.

Quite a lot of work for a 101 class, but it's interesting. Tests aren't bad if you study for them. She tries to make the class interesting by getting students to participate like in debates and other stuff. Overall, not bad, I'm expecting a B.

Alot of students complain that she spends the majority of the class time on student presentations and what not, however she does this so that we learn different things. Wheeler expects you to do the readings and if you have questions to talk with her. She dosen't waste time in class on simple topics that are in the book. Take her!

Show up for the debates, map quizzes, and test and read the book and except an A.

Easy class. Do all the assignments and study for the exams, you'll get an A. Very nice professor, no attendance policy

Interesting class, good prof, I learned quite a bit about stuff I didn't have a clue about before. 5 tests but the lowest one gets dropped, so you don't necessarily have to take the final. Recommend.

Very nice, incredibly understanding and easy to work with - take her if you have a chance... Do the work, study (a little) and you'll be fine!

Overall I like this class but it does involve quite a bit of research work and writing assigns but the topics are interesting. We discuss relevant topics. Recommend it if you're not just looking for a really easy class.

This was a very easy class. At times with all the current event reports and map quizzes and canceling class, it seemed like she wanted to avoid teaching the material. She gives you a copy of her notes, map quizes are extremely easy and tests arn't too hard either.

Now row 2, dont forget to do your current event reports and pick your debate topics and study for your map quiz, and your test on ch.s 1-100 is on friday,and 10,000 other things. psyche, sarah is really nice and the work isnt that bad, except it does kinda look like she stuck her finger in an electical outlet-zap-hair done for today-take her

She's a very nice lady; easy-going, peculiar yet lovable characteristics.

Teaches like an elementary school teacher. She wants you to pass. Tests are simple. Stupid current events reports and web ct quizes make it impossible to fail. I recommend her.

Good class. I learned a lot. I feel I know more about whats going on in the world now.

very easy class. She drops the lowest test, so if you do well you don't have to take the final. No use even going to class the last month if you're not taking the final. No attendence, just do the online quizzes, and you've got a month off! Nice prof, but I agree she is a little pecular. Speaks to the ceiling a lot, little to no eye contact with us

As long as you can get through her not being able to use the dvd player, she's fine.

As long as you do the webct test , the homework, and pass most of the book test you will be fine. Class was boring at times. I read the Penn alot, you will be fine..Take her if you can

If you want an easy class you're gauranteed to pass, this is who you want to take. If you have interest in this subject and want to learn, forget about it.

She made it interesting and I learned a lot

This is a easy A. Come to class sometimes, print out study guides, go to some extra credit, and ask questions and you'll pass without a doubt. Not the most interesting class in the morning but it's worth the A.

She is the The best Professor you can get an A so easy and no need to attend, only one assignment in the whole semester

Take your normal thought process and take it for a liberal spin. If you do that, you're guaranteed an A. Pretty easy class; the professor is actually extremely intelligent when it comes to Latin America. Otherwise, it's all about how the United States doesn't do enough to help little old poor countries. Decent class.

VERY OPINATED! if you don't share her opinion you will fail. i learned just to agree with what she said.

Professor Wheeler is very opinionated, but her class is very easy!!!! The test comes right from the notes and she gives bonus from time to time.

I thought her class was easy. All you have to do is study, and do your homework.Her tests are easy she basicallys gives you the answer. You just gotta listen.

She is a very nice and smart teacher but unless you are in the major nothing makes sense. Im taking it for my writing intensive but feel lost and don't feel that for a class with no prerequisite it should be this challenging.

Take Dr. Wheeler. She's a little out there in her own world sometimes, but she's a very nice lady nonetheless. You don't need the book. Attendance isn't mandatory, but you should go occasionally so she knows who you are, and some things she says or passes out will be on tests. There's only 4, and final is dropped. Tests are easy as well.

Very nice professor and willing to work with students to make sure they do well in her class. Work load was a bit higher than most classes, but it was a winter session course so that's probably why. Assignments are fairly easy and she can be lenient with due dates when the class size is small. Would definitely take her again if I could.

Great Professor

Dr. Wheeler is a sweetheart. I took the class my first semester of college, and only missed 5 points out of the semester. There is an opportunity for some bonus points, but the tests are very easy anyway. The book is not needed and I wasted quite a bit of money on it. She is a great prof. if you need an easy class for liberal studies.

If you attend class you will learn a lot. Not all of her lecture is on the tests, but most of it is. It is easy to get an A but even easier to actually learn IF you come to class. Attendance is not mandatory but will enrich your knowledge if you do.

To succeed on the exams, you should listen and write down a lot of what she says, study the outlines she gives, and do the online quizzes that are optional since some of the material can be found on them. I didn't read the book, but I am pretty sure I heard students talking about how information comes straight from there, so I would read.

A lot of long lectures for this class. However there is little to no homework which means our grades were pretty much only tests.

I took Dr. Wheelers virtual World Politics class and it was a good easy way to get the credits. The only grades are tests and a small current events project. If you read the textbook and go over her study guides youll be good. Shes also very easy to reach through email.

Took this class online. As long as you read the material, watch her lectures (she gives notes to follow), and do the practice tests if you get a chance, you'll be good.

Dr. Wheeler wants you to think about the underlying causes that you might not realize.

Took her for an online class! Her lecture recordings are super helpful as well as the outlines she sends!
