Reviews of professor Katherine Sawyer

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She doesn't know how to engage students to make lectures more interesting. No issues with her as a person. Readings for Deep Dives are SO long sometimes. Grades easy. Three deep dives, one final. Expect true or false questions for finals. Have to know concepts and definitions. Overall, not a bad instructor.

Dr. Sawyer always took time to meet one on one if I didn't understand something. Discussions are important to your grade but straightforward. Read the articles and post your thoughts to get good grades. Responds to emails very quickly and will help if you ask!

Prof. Sawyer was approachable after class and responded to emails. She tried her best to have students participate despite it being such a large class. She often dismissed the class early, which was nice. Study the review sheet for the final and you'll be prepared. She mostly read from slides/notes, but it didn't bother me much. She seemed nice.

The syllabus is straight forward. Each week, we have articles to read and we discuss them on Blackboard. The class was asynchronous, so the students were the ones leading the class rather than her. Shes a pretty easy grader. Ive gotten mostly 100s, but shes never given feedback. Its an easy A course and very interesting.
