Caring and responsive. Clear grading according to the rubric. Must work for your grade. Discussions are based on reading and studying all the material. Professor G is inspirational with quotes and encouragement. She also posts reminders on due dates. Responds to emails and cafe questions for me all the time. I highly recommend her, you will learn.

Professor Griffin takes weeks upon weeks to grade assignments. When they are finally graded, the feedback is minimal. Her rubrics are difficult to understand, and she is hard to reach. This professor isn't the best and I would not recommend.

Prof. Griffin was great. However, I really had to work for my grade. Sometimes I just wouldn't understand where I'd lose points. Nevertheless, she uses a clear grading criteria and is very fair. I took her 6 week class and it wasn't too overwhelming. If you're ready to put in a little effort, take her class.

The professor seemed inexperienced with online teaching. Unclear deadlines and closed assignments hindered learning. Mismatched rubrics and explanations caused confusion. Not the worst, but I wouldn't retake her class.

At first I thought this class was going to be hard but this professor was so helpful and really cared about her students success. I learned so much taking this class and really enjoyed it, I 100% recommend this professor if you are considering taking this class for interest or its a required course.

You only have a midterm and final, but she tells you to study and focus on certain things, yet less than half the test is what she told you to study. There is SO many papers. Takes forever to grade, and put in grades.
