Reviews of professor Sara Meerow

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Meerow is incredibly knowledgeable, but her class was incredibly boring. All of the assignments were essays which got almost no feedback. I wish her knowledge and passion for the topic came out more because then the lectures would not have been so painful. The honors recitation for the class was a mess. The timeline for the group project was wack.

Its a hybrid course, papers were graded by your assigned TA which was great but amazing teacher.

This class felt very repetitive at times, much of the content was the same from module to module. The group projects (at least online) arent really group projects, submit a video, do a reply. Yellowdig, quiz, video discussion, lectures every week. Dont bother buying the textbook I did not open it once. Easy grading just do the work.

Her lectures are dense, as are the online lectures that make up half of the course, but they basically just regurgitate the content from the textbook. 350-person lecture, so of course lots of students aren't paying attention. Attendance IS taken every day that class is held. Grade based on 4 assignments (1 of them group) and 2 tests.

I highly recommend taking this class with Professor Meerow. The material was very interesting and well-rounded, and she is very knowledgable about what she is teaching. Lecture heavy with A LOT of information, but manageable if you stay on top of everything.

This class was so boring. Not her fault, just the set up (300 students, lecture HEAVY, and boring topics). The only assignments were 4 essays, which were somewhat easy but the grading was so bad, I don't think they were even read. I lost exactly 5 points every time for no reason and no feedback at all. The exams were only easy if you studied.

Professor Meerow is super nice and willing to extend assignments no matter the reason. She is really fair with her grading but can be really hit or miss with late assignments. She gave out constant reminders for homework, but some of the assignments are hard to keep track of.
