Reviews of professor Smaranda Andrews

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
World Food Issues is one of the easiest classes I have taken at Iowa State. We had 2 paper for the whole semester, both which were super easy. The bi-weekly quizzes are also so easy and she'll help you if you need (during the quiz). There is attendance points.

AGRON 342 was a fun class. I took it online and passed with ease. There are bi-weekly quizzes and like 2 or 3 papers throughout the semester. The class made me think, but was in no way hard. Dr. Andrews just wants her students to make the best out of the class.

She never encourages students to share their opinions. She only believes what she thoughts. Take another section if you want to learn something

Great teacher! Actually cares about what she teaches and puts effort into it. You get more out of the class the more you put in. Offers extra credit at the end, very easy to get an a if you try. All quiz questions come from powerpoints.

Taken as a 300+ just to get credits and it was actually a really enjoyable class. Professor Andrews is great and really understands that her students have lives/work/other classes outside of her own. The material is interesting and the coursework is very manageable. Would take again/take another one of her classes.

Very easy online class. 4 quizzes, 1 discussion post, and 1 writing assignment due biweekly. Dr. Andrews and her TA gave good feedback on assignments and things were graded quickly. The topics covered are interesting and thought-provoking. Good variety of reading, videos, and lecture videos to keep things fresh.
