Reviews of professor Patricia Barnhart

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Content was delivered with a strong emphasis on simply reading the textbook. This was great for me, but may not be for some. Quizzes and exams go well if you understand the textbook content, but assigned chapters can get frustrating in the amount of time you have to get them done. Expectations unclear at times. Make sure you read her syllabus.

Go to class everyday and you will be fine. Quizzes are easy and so are exams. Cite properly and do your replies and discussion posts. One essay and meeting with the writing center is mandatory. She gives good feedback and literally replies within minutes. She is super sweet. She is motivational and wants everyone to succeed. Take her!

Taken 3 courses with Professor Barnhart and don't regret! Writing heavy but the intent is to make each student a better and more proficient writer. Participation points for attendance. Brings in guest speakers often from the industry. Happy to end my time at ASU with her class.

She does not give feedback unless you specifically ask for it. Before I asked her to give actual feedback all she would say is tie in material more. She comes across as not approachable and very rude in all correspondence. I could not recommended to anyone. Rubrics are not helpful. Her quiz questions are also not from the current module.

There's a quiz every week, but you should do alright if you actually read the chapter, take notes, and go through the presentation slides. There are 3 essays, and I found it to be real lax grading and decent feedback. There are also discussions on Yellowdig, you only have to do 5 posts and 5 replies for the whole class. Pretty good class to take.

I feel as though this professor would be much better at a higher level course. I felt disconnected from her as a student. However, she did respond to emails in a timely manner.

Professor Barnhart is the sweetest lady and you can tell that she really cares about all of her students. As long as you follow the syllabus and attend class (attendance is graded), this class is an easy A. Not too much work, biweekly discussions, biweekly quizzes, and one paper that is split up in different milestones throughout the semester!

Overall the class is alright but if you don't show up, it really brings down your grade. Tons of guest speakers but when it is just her lecturing, it can be very boring.
