Reviews of professor Cassandra Shaw-Franks

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Took as an 8 week course but the homework load seemed very heavy. Several chapters worth due twice a week, and you couldn't take tests without doing half the homework first. You did get infinite tries to get 100 and the problem solver attached was helpful. Be sure to remember exactly how to enter answers, "4" is WRONG if they want "x4".

Very hard to get in touch with. Didnt transfer grades from Pearson (online) to blackboard until the last week of class. Always posted quizzes/tests late and then had to extend the due date. No lectures. All lessons, assignments, quizzes, and tests were through Pearson. If youre not great at math or teaching yourself, I wouldnt recommend.

Rarely responds to emails. No lectures but the notes are pretty good and helpful, also everything is done through person.

I took Cassandra Shaw-Franks this summer. She was very patient with me, though she had a clear explanation on how to pass her class. I do not speak mathematics and Ms. Franks was very graceful in helping me continue through the class. I made a C, but I made this account to report how much I recommend students to take her class!

I recommend taking College Algebra online with Shaw-Franks! It sounded hard doing math online at first, but Shaw-Franks makes REALLY easy notes that are one page long per chapter. Super easy to learn and I got an A on every assignment. I had trouble contacting her at first but it all worked out. GREAT class and prof!

Took for MATH 1324 summer class. Class was extremely challenging to teach yourself online. Nonexistent professor. HW assignments time consuming and you're given very little chances to get right. Tests are proctored with notes allowed. I suggest printing out all of the HW to use on tests to refer back to. It was the only way I passed.

She's an okay professor if you already have a good base in math. Be prepared to spend a few hours doing homework online and be able to figure things out on your own - she barely answers emails and will err when showing problems in class. I would recommend her for an online professor, I learned more from the homework vids than I did in class.

Good professor overall. Be prepared to work mostly online, she does not lecture at all.

Don't expect to get responses from her when you have questions. I have sent 5-10 emails to her asking questions about different things and have received 1 response back. Would definitely not take her again.
