Reviews of professor Triparna De Vreede

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This class is a lot of work but it was manageable until the final exam. After having two VERY big projects due the two weeks leading up to finals, De Vreede dropped the bomb that our final was going to be four thoroughly research essay questions we have to write. We have a week to complete this on top of a 20+ page group paper and presentation.

She does NOT give ample instructions for assignments! Summer C consists of three in class meetings, the rest you meet with your group independently and do a organization assessment. Multiple DB posts (easy), milestone assignments to keep you on track of the assessment and a PowerPoint video project. She is strict about formatting. No textbook.

A wonderful professor & person. You will work hard, but learn so much. She's incredibly dedicated to her students & always willing to meet outside class. The classes are usually a balance of discussion and lecture. No textbooks, but lots of relevant articles to read. Clarifying expectations is important - you must understand and follow directions.

She has a lot of knowledge and loves to interact with her students even in an online format. Be prepared to work hard. I am unsure what other reviews say about her not being good at English...I did not ever find her lacking in written or spoken language skills. Take her class if you truly want to learn and feel visible in online classes...

Her classes can be tough if you want to coast. But, even though it is an online class, she does her best to reach out and explain when I have questions. Great teacher and a wonderful mentor!
