Take professor Agan, for an easy A in SCI1101. All homework and quizzes are on Pearson but not lockdown. Lab Quizzes and Tests are on d2l, not lockdown, and are very easy to pass. I bought the textbook and never opened it once, and finished with an A+ so the textbook is not necessary to purchase. If you need help, she emails back quickly.

Professor Agan is a good professor and while her class is easy, it is not to be taken lightly. Students should make sure to keep up with assignments or else they could risk getting a poor grade in a relatively simple class. All of her test questions and quiz questions are found on Quizlet or on her video lectures so remember to keep up with those.

She was a great professor and I would retake her as the class was fairly easy, HOWEVER, her test is questionable. She does not tell you what to expect on her exam so be prepared to remember everything she posts during that unit as it will be on the test. Whether it's a TED talk or an article, otherwise, the quiz and test are easy.

I took her over the summer. She squeezed a 15 week course into an 8 week course but it was still easy as long as you do the work. She has lockdown/webcam exams but they're all easy. Put in minimal studying and do the work and it's an A.

The course includes 4 Packback discussions (respond to 2 peers), 5 MES assignments w/ paired quizzes, 12 weekly lab quizzes (labs ungraded), & 5 lockdown exams. Lowest lab, quiz, discussion, & activity grades are dropped. Assignments are manageable with a weekly checklist. An 89.5+ exempts you from the final. 2 extra credit options are offered.

I did get a little overwhelmed with the work. Total of 4 discussions. Every week we had a lab to do, a total of 12 labs/lab quizzes for the semester. 5 tests for the number of units and there is a final exam. She only provided one extra credit assignment. Make sure to the read the textbook, articles and watch the videos, it will be on the test!

Great professor but a LOT of work. A lab every week with 4 discussions. Tests are really easy to study for. Exempts students above a 89.5, very passionate teacher and gives small fun fact, current news updates about the environment.

Dr. Suzanne Agan is a good professor, she does give alot of homework, labs and exams but they are all based off the labs. Her checklist if very helpful to help students keep track of what needs to be done. If you have an A by the end of the semester she makes the final Exam optional. I would take her again if I had too.

The workload and class overall was hard for me however she is an awesome teacher. Grades fast and responds to emails fast. Very passionate about what she does. Work isnt exactly hard but it feels like alot sometimes. Tests use camera and the final extra credit is 166 questions. Straightforward grading and gives lots of study tips. 100% recommend!

Majority of the learning is self guided (online) and relied heavily on powerpoints and textbook readings. Tests weren't too hard but they definitely relied on you reading everything that was assigned. As a professor though she was awesome, she reached out to check in because she actually cares about students doing well in her class.

I was struggling a lot with this class at first until I realized that the practice quizzes were the exact same as the tests, just with a few questions added from extra reading material she provides. The discussions we had to do were pretty annoying, but they weren't hard. Same thing for the labs.

Not my fav prof tbh. Teste are super long and lockdown and webcam. No notes allowed also. When you ask her a question she tells you to just read over the content again. She seems sweet fr but as a teacher she didn't do me much good. It's an easy class sure but a overwhelming amount of work is given and the content in the test are not made clear. -1

This was not a fly-by online class. This professor assigned an enormous amount of work. While the modules were organized, you were not sure what to study for the tests. She provides hw assignments, readings, and lab quizzes. 5 exams + final (exempt if you have 89.5 above). Be prepared to work if you want an A.

she isn't a horrible professor, she definitely cares but she doesn't go out of her way to make the course easier. Much of the work is just questions and no real detail or reasoning to them.

Professor Agan knows what she is doing and is great at it! She IS very homework heavy so be prepared if you are online! During exam weeks she WILL still have regular homework and labs PLUS the exam so plan accordingly! Exams are never hard as the homework is always on the exams!

The professor replies back to emails fast and is flexible with deadline if you have a valid reason. Each week you have questions to answer based on the reading, a lab quiz, and a test (every 3-4 weeks). The test and lab quizzes are not on lockdown browser.

Professor Agan is by far the most thorough and caring professor I have had. She gives tips on how to study/what to study to almost guarantee you pass her exams. She does give a good amount of work per week, but they all cater to you better understanding the material. I would 100% take her course again and enjoyed the course.

There are 5 tests, LOCKDOWN AND WEBCAM, and 1 final (can be exempted). There are a total of 4 discussion posts. Each week, there is a lab quiz/lab, MES, and readings. I didn't like the tests since you're not really sure what to study. I was able to raise my grades on the exams by using quizlet reviews (final exam review SCI 1101).
