Reviews of professor Abigail Daane

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Idk what those last two reviews were about - they are totally inaccurate! This prof is fantastic and brilliant. She teaches critical thinking that is clearly lacking in many classes today (see previous rant about taking the easy way out) The classes use open source textbooks and it is obvious that years of work has been put into the class content!

Awesome learning experience - lots of community building and lots of fun. I now have a solid group of other students I can turn to because the environment of the class was so positive and supportive. You will learn a lot and work a lot but it is totally worth it.

I wish all classes were like this one. At first, I was pretty shocked by how much I had to think critically and participate in class. As the class went on, I realized that this class is what actual learning should be all the time! The class has been meticulously designed to have you actually learn the concepts and is super interactive - it's fun!

She has weird grading scale for quizzes. Even you got the answer right with all the step, she still deducts your point. Your classmate has wrong answer but still more points than you. Though she is caring, understanding but very hard to get A. I got A+ in my physics 221 but different professor than this one. I wont take her again if for GPA.

This is an awesome class! It is so fun and Dr. Daane really cares about her students! She will really support you in learning - don't be afraid to ask questions and be ready to think! Themes in class: hands-on learning, exploring, and making friends. I loved it - I wish all profs were like this!

Dr. Daane is a caring, and flexible professor. She uses active learning, we do lots of experiments during class to help us understand the concepts and we are always working in groups. The homework is extensive, but she gives you all the support needed to get it done on time. Her grading style is clear and fair, and she is always open to talk.

Kind of a weird situation. The three female physics profs decided to basically combine their classes and we do everything on the same schedule and they shared grading responsibilities. I had her grade a few of my assignments, and the scale is awful. I lost 7% on an assignment for leaving off ONE unit in a two part problem. So wack.

I took a whole series engineering physics at South with Dr. Daane before I transferred to UW Seattle for EE. I really appreciate her enthusiasm and efforts because it made me feel more comfortable to study in physics. She's a tough grader, but now I don't have any problem with my circuit class. Also she curves pretty good if you put enough effort.

Learned so much. Best prof ever. You actually learn stuff about the real world and your career
