Reviews of professor Amy Glaser

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Very different teacher but the class was more focused on group discussions/debates than lectures so it was a nice change. The weekly quizzes were kind of hard but if you paid attention in class and took some notes then it's slight.

Professor Glaser is a very kind and understanding person but the class itself was not too enjoyable mostly because we do 6 "blogs" which are different group assignments and if you had one person in your group who didn't do their work, the whole group would get penalized for it. Also, her lectures can get boring and a little confusing.

This was my only B this semester and I worked really hard. She puts too much percentage weight on quizzes and if you don't do well on them it'll pull you down with no room to go back up. And the quizzes are really hard. Even thought I got an A on the final, it didn't weigh enough to move my B quiz average. She's nice but class needs improvement.

Quizzes are heavily weighted and there's only ten questions on each quiz so if you miss two you get a B-. The final exam only had 25 questions and was very unfair. Even though it was open notes, the questions had no relevance to the notes. The quiz questions are worded weirdly. Lectures are long but they provide good explanation.

This is for IDS 203-super easy to take online for a GEP, you do one blog post and a quiz each week. A final paper, and final exam that is open notes. Amy is very responsive and understand in emails and occasionally will give extensions. TBH you don't need to read the assigned books to pass either, just look up summaries online!

Took this my first semester. Dr. Glaser is very nice, but her lecture styles are pretty boring. Grade based on 10 quizzes and a final project. The quizzes are nothing like her lectures and instead from the book. They're pretty confusing, too, but not impossible if you read outside of class time.

Dr. Glaser has 9 quizzes in a semester and make up 40% of the overall grade. Randomly selected into a Blog Groups where you have 6 blogs. If one person in the group does not participate everyone is penalized! I like that everything is can be online, even the quizzes and final! It is hard to understand what Dr. Glaser's point is in the lectures.

I really liked Professor Glaser as a person but I just was not interested in the class. Major grades in this class included many quizzes, a group project, and a final exam. The quizzes can be difficult if you don't REALLY pay attention in class. She really cares about her students and will reach out if you are struggling though!

I am not sure why the reviews are as bad as they are on here. They are a decent professor without too much work and is a solid class to take for a GED.
