She makes class fun and tells lots of hilarious stories. She also is very encouraging , even when you feel like you won't do well in an assignment. You must notify her by sending a courteous email or text when you will be missing class so that she can fill you in on what you missed that class session.

Amazing and really cares about her students. If you put 20% of your effort into this class you can get an A. Attendance is not mandatory but she will often give graded assignments which you have to be their to get credit. She is extremely helpful and not intimidating. Highly recommend.

Everyone needs a Professor Cooper in their life! She's an amazing teacher and person. Lots of work, but it's not "busy work" and you benefit from the assignments. I wish I could take her class every semester.

Professor Cooper is AMAZING! I highly recommend everyone take her for 2110. She is all about real-world information. We focused on current events rather than the textbook. She is so passionate about education, and she goes out of her way to make sure everyone succeeds. Grade-wise, you get what you work for. Put in some effort, and you'll get an A.

If you come to the class and participate you will pass. She wants to both weed out the weak and make sure you succeed. she is extremely passionate about what she does and it shows in class. I would definitely take her again

I love love love Professor Cooper. She is real and down to earth. She teaches us about real world examples that our books don't teach you. If you are looking for a professor who loves teaching and will open your eyes to things that you will not learn from a textbook to know if this profession is for you or not, take her!!!

Professor Cooper is very passionate about making sure everyone is positive they want to be a teacher. She is all about real-world information, not the textbook. She is a VERY tough grader, especially with group projects. You have to go ALL OUT in order to get a decent grade. Avoid using technology, she will give you a better grade without it.

Her teaching style is unique and she likes to get personal with her students. She believes it helps create a better classroom culture. Her guidelines for assignments aren't necessarily clear and it can be frustrating at times. Participate and don't have a bad attitude or it will affect your grade. Don't create a groupme chat for this class.

I enjoyed Professor Cooper at the beginning on the semester, but as time went on, her true colors turned me off. I will give her that is very passionate about teaching and wants to ensure that all of her student have that passion. However, her grading criteria is extremely UNCLEAR. If you want to take her, you need thick skin

This lady was my saving grace to my GPA this semester! Go to class and you really won't need the book. Everyone saying her expectations are "unclear" are just plain stupid because she literally teaches every test and assignment - just do EXACTLY what she says. Best professor I've had so far!

I took her for a hybrid class, so we only met in person a few times. These few times were sometimes helpful, sometimes pointless. She gave a lot of work, but you basically had the whole semester to do it, so it was not bad. This class has field experience, and she is really helpful with it (and everything else too) if you need help.

I loved her at the beginning of the semester, but it's clear she's very unfair to students on her bad side. I offended her by wearing shorts in one of our video assignments, and she completely flipped on me. I went from making straight A's to straight C's no matter how hard I tried. When I came to her for help she was always snarky with me.
