Reviews of professor Courtney Diener

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I took this class because it met a general education requirement and I didn't expect to get much out of the class but I did. We did a lot of reading, but it was interesting and easy. I liked our videos and guest speakers too. This class was not hard at all and could be an easy A. This is the type of class you get what you put into the class.

I really loved taking this class with Courtney my first semester at Mason. Your grade breakdown for the class is really clear--you read three books and write 2 page reflections on each book + a few more 2 page papers (very easy). While she takes attendance into consideration for your grade, you can miss 3-4 times and still be fine. She's v smart.

Courtney was amazing. The course has a lot of good resources to help you understand the foundations of Women's Studies. She gives great feedback and a chance to correct work if it is unsatisfactory. She truly cares for her students and it shows. I suggest watching/reading/listening to course content it is all really good stuff.

buy the textbook and required reading materials. plan to read every week. the reading is complex so set aside a decent. amount of time to understand the material and participate in class discussion because it is. a major part of your grade. her lessons are a bit unusual for a college class but its fun. attendance is important but she is flexible
