I took this class a while ago and wanted to review it now since I didnt then. This professor made such a profound impact. She NEVER downed other religions or spoke against them. She simply shed light on the prejudices, history, culture, social issues and religion of the Middle East. Great class. It should be mandatory.

    Humanities was confusing to me but, Her instructions were clear throughout the course. She doesn't accept late work, but you have a whole week to finish assignments. There's a test every week and discussions every other week. Quizlet would be your best friend! Also, there are extra assignments that are very easy.

    She has a very clear outline schedule for the semester. Due dates, instructions, and rubrics are always listed. She doesn't accept late work but she gives you enough time to complete everything. You can also find things on quizlet, you might not need to because the material is so easy.

    Took her intro to Humanities online and enjoyed it! She has a very clear syllabus, class schedule, and rubrics for every assignment. Be prepared for a lot of reading from the textbook and from articles online. I took this as a half term (6 week course), but I would recommend the full term class because it was tough to keep up! Constantly stuff due

    I had her for Intro to Humanities online. It was a very easy class and I actually learned quite a bit. The material that she gives us is interesting. She gives lots of extra credit, but she DOES NOT TAKE LATE WORK. The discussions were a big chunk of our grade, but I enjoyed writing them and learning about the topics.

    I had this professor for intro to humanities online and it was a breeze. Grading rubrics are very thorough which allows you to get the grade you worked for. One quiz every week and one discussion and test each unit. No final aside from the last unit test. Easy A if you complete the assignments.

    I took her online for intro to Humanities. Shes very good. The class is very detailed. Not too many assignments. Only 3 exams and all are online and multiple choice. Didnt really use a textbook she had notes on everything. Do every exam and discussion and quizzes and you will get an A. Also plenty extra credit

    The class is easy and some of the discussion posts are creative and enjoyable. Overall, the only reason I didn't end this class with an A is because I missed an assignment and she excepts ZERO late work. Tests and quizzes come straight from book. Offers extra credit. Im taking another class with her next semester because I loved this class so much!

    Best online class I've ever taken. I wish I could have her for every online class. Everything is listed in the syllabus and you have more than enough time to complete your work. There is NO final exam! She gives multiple extra credit assignments that will definitely help your grade. I finished with a 97 :-) Best class ever!!!!

    this class was my very first college class ever. i heard about this amazing professor from everyone's comments here on this website and decided she was the one. If you are looking to get an easy A during the summer, i highly recommend taking her. I spent about 3 days during the week doing assignments that took very little time.

    Took her for an online class and it was so fun and easy. She provided power points and lectures which makes this online class more tolerable. One discussion post, in particular, was an extreme eye opener and very inspirational. Best professor!
