It's an easy class, but there is a lot of assignments that you have to do. You'll get full credit if you go through all the assignments and follow instructions. We did our lectures through zoom meeting because of Covid. The lectures were boring, however they were not mandatory to attend.

Easy A, but you have to write a lot in Tophat, grade by few things, so the grade is easy to change a lot. Few reading and vocab tests, tophat assignments, and one video presentation.

Great professor, I took this class in my senior year. Definite GPA booster before Grad school. We had interesting topics for research paper & presentations. She made a very smooth and stress free transition to online mode in the final weeks due to covid. She sets up requirements in first 2 weeks, don't be intimidated, she's a very generous grader

It's an advanced writing class, hence, be prepared to write. However, professor K is very fair and open-minded. When I fell behind in the class, she kept the focus on my learning and recovery rather than being punitive. Don't be afraid to ask. Also, follow writing prompts, she's very clear about what you need to do and how.

There isn't that much of HW. Still, the way she introduced the course is not the best. Her grading is fine if you followed her requirement for each paper. Requires to attend 2 writing center appointment. one mid, one final and one final research paper and a group project.

She's a breath of fresh air. Amazing personality, very easy to work with. Make sure you communicate to her if you fall behind, she will help you to create a plan to pass the course successfully. Very clear expectation. This is a writing class, get ready to write.
