All lectures and subject matter is explained very thoroughly. You wouldn't regret taking her for Anthropology. Clicker questions are always fun! An interesting class and a nice professor, take her!

This class is fun even if you're not interested in the subject matter before hand. Her lectures are easy to understand and not boring. For the test, some questions come from the anthropology matters boxes in the book so be sure to check those out. She is very approachable for office hours and very helpful.

Don't like her teaching style: talks kind of fast, so sometimes it's hard to follow through. Midterm was difficult: provide study guide with LOTS of topics, but on the exam, it was detailed!

Engaging with her students, answers questions. VERY helpful. Helped me with clear feedback in every homework assign. Very smart. Used my textbook a lot. The class was more fun than I thought it would be. Grades fairly If you put in effort to learn and do assignments.

She grades fair. Class was fun and interesting. If you put in effort you will pass the class. Extremely helpful and willing explain concepts. I recommend this class to everybody. Looking forward to her Archeology course.

Amazing Prof, Unique style. This was my last online GE Class to move up to my Masters and i enjoyed every rough bumps she placed.Advice? proofread your work,check you paper online for possible plagiarism before submission. Read her notes and a simple project. you all good! Did 26 units, never read text book nor the article book, but got A.

Very easy class if you show up and take notes...Prof Paskey is very helpful and gets back to you with any questions you have extremely quick. She can be stern at times. Easy class!!

I liked Professor Paskey, she's interested in the topic and teaches it well. Like others have said, she does grade papers like an English teacher, which is understandable. This is college not junior high. Her tests are average, just show up to class and take notes and you should be fine. It's a sure A if you do the work.

The reason students are required to take English is so that we are prepared to write for other things in life, like Anthro classes. So yes, Paskey grades like an English Professor but that's the way it should be.

People complain, but ignore it. When you can tell a professor loves the subject you can tell. She barely looks at her notes and can talk for the entire class about anthropology. If you use her hours she's helpful and uses her e-mail often to help as well. Spelling and grammar do count... but really, it's college people. What were you expecting?
ANTH300
One of my top 5 favorite teachers at CRC. She's very approachable and keeps the subject very interesting. Tests are easy and is willing to help out whenever students ask. I also took her for cultural anthro which was equally fun and easy. Can be stern when necessary - much appreciated quality.

People saying she grades like an english teacher must be really stupid. DO NOT LISTEN TO THEM! english is my worst subject and I got 100% on ALL writing assignments. She said herself that she doesn't know the place of a comma. This class is an easy A and you learn a lot. She's a wonderful teacher.

A good instructor. She does a great job during lectures. Grades fairly on homework assignments. Some of the exam questions can be a bit tricky if you tend to overthink things. Overall not a difficult class and learned alot of interesting things.

The trick to this class is take the lecture and the lab its a lot of fun and one reinforces the other. She is a fun teacher and very accessible if you have any question you can email her, she will look over papers before you turn them in and let you know if you need to fix anything. Just put in the work and you will be pleasantly surprised.

Science classes are definitely not for me...but I thought the class was pretty easy..take good notes...I don't think she grades hard...I'm an average student and I got a B...no final..I say take her
anthr300
Whoa..So apparently I am not the only one that thinks she grades papers as if she's an English teacher lol

Anthro 300 is only a "GE CLASS" and Paskey makes it so hard then it should really be. Seriously, my pre cal class was not even that bad. Everyone, if your looking for an easy GE class do not take anthro bc honestly i dont think anyone passed :/ her grading is horrible. Was i taking Anthro 300 or English 300? Sometimes i wonder...
anth300
I took this class Fall semester of 2010 and I have to say, I like her as a person she was nice, but her teaching sucks. She does grade like a English teacher. I read the whole entire "whats love got to do with it?" summaries and everything and I got bad grades on those because of my grades. If you are 1 minute late, won't accept your work!
ANTH320
She's really passionate about what she's teaching. Barely used the book, took notes from her lectures. Allows note card for exams and based on her lectures so attending is mandatory, listen to her lectures and take good notes. And wow, the papers aren't even that bad. Just watch your grammar and spelling.
