Reviews
The one problem about this class is the group. My group screwed me over and in order to get credit each member had to fill out a survey afterwards. I would end up doing the work myself and I still had to worry about them filling out the survey. So try to make sure you know the people that you pick up in your group. The slides were pretty descriptive. The test questions were phrased a little weird which made it hard, but it was all based on the slide.
Pretty straight forward -- I got a B on the midterm, A on the final, and an A overall in the class.
Dr. Ankowski is a very good lecturer and her midterm very accurately reflected what was being taught in class.
The only downside is that her final is worth 32% of the overall class grade, and this can be very daunting especially as someone who had a high A going into the final (I'm not sure whether I was able to maintain that A after the final). Her final was more challenging than her midterm but I learned a lot and would definitely recommend!
Good class, straigtforward material. Looking at the notes and doing the practice questions on the testbank she provides should be enough to get an A
I really liked the structure of the class, and Dr. Ankowski's passion for the subject really resonated with me!
Very straightforward class. Great intro type class.
Great professor with great organized course.
This class is pretty straightforward. It can be hard to pay attention in the 8am lecture, but Bruincast recordings are available to review after. To do well in this class, you really just need to pay attention in class and maybe ask questions if any of the concepts are unclear. The professor is very approachable and will do her best to help you understand any confusing topics.
