Reviews of professor Nasia Anam

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Amazing professor, she did a great job with transitioning to an online class during COVID-19. Clear grading criteria, most assignments are graded based on completion, and the amount of reading/writing is reasonable. Very understanding. Does expect you to participate during class, but participation in class was only a small percent of grade

As long as you read you'll do fine. Discussion was mandatory. They took attendance and had quizzes based on what lecture was about. Only had 2 paper, less than 1000 words and mid term and final which were both open book open notes and taken online at home. Not a bad professor just a lot of reading.

Doesn't seem to understand this is an undergrad class and expects you to do everything her way or not at all, really likes to tell you that you're wrong. Longest 75 minutes of my life, very boring lectures. Very condescending at times and especially in paper feed back (you have to write 4). Overall wouldn't recommend, very pretentious.

Expects students to respect her when she does not respect her students. Assignments were sometimes posted late without a reasonable extension, grades were never posted for months, student emails took weeks for a response, etc. She didnt even teach the students herself, mostly assigning it to other students as their assignment. Do not take.

Lots of reading, make sure to read or just go to the lecture and take notes, the discussion section will help you understand the material. Overall easy class, two essays - not long- and a midterm and final. Overall not that difficult but also not super interesting.
