Reviews of professor Roberta Salmi

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Salmi has good intentions and is willing to help her students, this class was just difficult for me. 3 research essays, which are time consuming and kind of hard, and 3 tests and lectures which are not mandatory, but I would definitely suggest going. I also got a 70 for participation and idk why

If you want weekly quizzes, papers and video lectures that you make pretty much back to back and picky grading over weekly discussion posts, this class is for you.

Class is lecture heavy and it goes over so much material. I recommend making timelines and comparison charts. I barely made an A but the good news is there are bonus questions on the tests and an 8% extra credit assignment! There are also weekly short discussions and quizzes. 3 essays and video presentation, you can pick any topic so that was easy

Dr. Salmi is very sweet and approachable. Her class is very engaging and interesting if you are invested in the topic.

Dr. Salmi really cares about the content which really helps engage you. The tests were multiple choice with a few extra credit questions and very easy. The 3 research papers were only 2 pages and graded with leniency. Online quizzes and short answers over the textbook were a bit annoying but highly recommend. Also offers a 10% extra credit project.

Like someone else said, make timelines and comparison charts to study. I suggest going to the lectures because the slides she posts don't always make sense without them. The class goes over a lot of material, and the frequent textbook homework is exhausting, but I did learn a lot and getting an A is pretty achievable. Dr. Salmi is cool.

Professor Salmi does an amazing job at explaining any subject in anthropology; so much so that the tests and quizzes are easy as long as you study. She is very engaging and leaves great comments on your work. The workload isn't too much and you have plenty of extra credit on tests and other assignments.If you like anthropology I suggest taking her!

I love Dr. Salmi! I took the Intro to Bio. Anthropology with her and the special topics course in Primate Conservation. She provides PPT slides on eLC , and shes easily accessible outside of class. She really cares for her students and wants us all to succeed. I leaned so much from her. Some of the material is tough so be ready to study and learn!
