Reviews of professor Jessica Gilbert

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Doesn't require class attendance but will miss crucial info for exams without it. Lots of group work that often doesn't feel relevant. 8 papers roughly per semester. Did not enjoy class structure and she is unlikeable.

She is EXTREMELY confusing. Directions make no sense and the class is unorganized. Half of the files on canvas are completely irrelevant and assignments did not teach anything and she did not have lectures. Her emails are rude & condescending. They were 1-2 words and unhelpful plus it takes her days to respond. Easy grader, but not a great teacher.

Take Prof Gilbert! She is super funny and her lectures are very interesting. Attendance is not mandatory but she will tell you to write stuff down needed for the exams. I will admit the exams are tedious, however, they are open note. Take notes on everything she puts in modules and you will do fine. There are papers, but she grades easily.

Professor Gilbert makes class interesting by always bringing up current events. Assignments are fun and if you do exactly as she says you'll get a great grade. Very kind lady and highly recommend

She is definitely on my top list for professors I have had. She is so passionate about her work as a sociologist and she is understanding with outside opinion. I would definitely love to take her course again.

Exams were hard and I failed both but still managed to get an A in the class. The lectures were interesting and the class discussions we did were fun. The extra credit is worth 20 points and I recommend doing it even if you dont need to because it was a great experience. Only will get points off the homework if you didnt follow directions.

There were only a few of us in class because she let anyone that wanted do the class online (due to Covid). The activities in class are pretty cool. She sets up phone calls if you need help and did Zoom after the state shut down again with us.
