Reviews of professor Lauren Brooks

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Mixed feelings. She simultaneously felt over and underprepared. She either had an 80 slide presentation or we watched a nature documentary/guest lecturer. The class was setup kind of weird, but super easy if you just turn stuff in. This was only the second time Brooks has taught conservation biology, so she'll probably get better next time

Lots of group work, but a great professor. She understands this probably isn't your major and caters to that. One of the easiest classes I have taken.

Dr. Brooks is one of the most caring and engaging professors that I've ever had. She genuinely cares about her students, and does everything in her power to help us succeed. The class is flipped, so lectures are watched outside of class and work is done during class time. Dr. Brooks will help you in every way that she can. She's amazing.

She's a really good teacher and she will do everything to help her students succeed. I probably learned more in this class than any other. There is a lot of homework and projects but she'll do everything she can to help you.

Steps to do well in Lauren Brooks class. 
1) Watch all of the lectures (sometimes twice). To save time, put every single note in a google doc. (way faster than writing)
2) Ask questions (she is extremely responsive and caring)
3) Try to grasp and apply concepts rather than memorizing everything. 
note: Your work/grade is reflective of your effort.

Dr. Brooks might be the best professor at UVU. She wants you to succeed and learn. Watch the lecture videos do the quizzes, participate and study a little and this class should be a breeze. I second go Tily!
