Super easy A, would take her over and over if she taught other classes.

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
There are lectures posted at the beginning of the week as well as the reading and assignments. We have a week to complete simple things like blogs or discussion boards. There are three tests but they are all based on classwork and she posts a Kahoot that helps a lot. There are group blogs but it their work doesn't affect your grade, only your own.

Show up to her lectures and do the assignments, you will be fine! There are three exams in which she creates excellent reviews for. The class is usually just her talking but she answers any questions you may have in full detail! Take her.

She's a good professor, her test are straight forward, she reviews by doing Kahoot which is helpful. I would say the lectures a heavy, and not very interesting, she does talk very low, and it can be hard to stay awake, if you can get passed that you'll be fine. Take her if you can, you won't regret it.

Easy class. Took instead of bio,  great decision. You need to go to the zoo and American museum of natural history. Exams pretty easy. 3 discussion posts as well. Attendance wasn't mandatory by me.

She does an amazing job at teaching the topic and makes it real easy to get a good grade. she'll always answer your questions in detail and you'll do more than fine if you show up to class and do the assignments. Plus, one of the very few decent and caring professors who teach this course. A must take!!

I loved this professor and wish more professors were like her. Everything was straight forward. Gives the best reviews for tests. Take her, you won't be disappointed!

the prof does an excellent job of teaching the material clearly, but the content itself is kinda boring but its still an easy class. There are 2 exams, 1 final, 3 blackboard reflections, 1 assignment where you have to visit the zoo and 1 where you have to go to the museum. She also provides reviews for each exam and that really helps. O

Dorton was a really sweet professor although I kinda wish I had known her more as a person. She's pretty soft-spoken and her lectures are straight to the point. Her exams are also very simple, both in-person and then the transition to online learning so if you study all the given materials and pre-recorded lectures, you'll have no trouble.

Professor Dorton was a hard grader and her voice was very monotone. Her Kahoot's were not helpful since they were very different from the exam. If you have her in person next semester sit in the back and take good "notes" since they really will help you "pass".
