Reviews of professor Rebecca Macdonald

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I really liked her. I had a hard time in EG ethics and Econ and she was always made herself available to meet me even when it was last minute. It is hard to follow her lectures sometimes, but if you got to her office you will be fine. Super nice lady and I recommend taking her.

I took her for Intro to Engineering and Design and she made it five times harder than it needed to be. My friends had other professors and they always had a blast in that class while I was literally dreading till I had to go back to that class.

So much homework and either 1 or 3 quizzes every week. Reads off a PowerPoint and doesnt actually work examples. Tests are hard af

Great Professor. Easiest class I had all semester. If you are taking intro to engineering and design take this professor. Dr Mac is always available outside of class as well whenever you need her. Easy A+ Be prepared for presentations and presenting

I had her when it was her first semester here. She doesn't teach to make sure students understand the material and just reads off of the PowerPoint. Very nice person, not a great teacher. Do not recommend.

Take the opportunity to talk with her outside of class, she is very helpful and personable.

Terrible proffesor! Will fail you at all costs if you do not meet the C level she expects you to. Very accessible outside of class and a very nice person but not a good proffesor. Doesnt break down examples well, will find something wrong with your answers and will mark the whole problem wrong on the tests just for missing one step.

Ridiculous amounts of work. You have case studies, failure cases, homework, classwork. Every week. All of it graded. On top of that you have 2 big projects (one you have to present in front of the class) and 2 exams. She is also a very harsh grader. As a person she is nice and will help if you ask, but I would avoid taking her classes if possible.

The class was terrible, I had no idea what was going on ever, I honestly don't know how I passed with a B, but I did. Gives the most vague instructions ever, lost a few of my homeworks, and dropped a quiz I made a 90 on. This class is supposed to be a no hard work class but she made it into one. I will never take her again.

This entire class could have been way easier than it was. Lectures are all over the place. She spent most of the semester showing us how to do a project, but she moved way to fast for nearly anyone to keep up with the pace. Her instructions on assignments are not clear. She counts any form of student collaboration as misconduct. Have fun!
