Reviews of professor Alexis Hanson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I didn't expect a GOV class to be easy and she was caring and would give us a second chance to submit work that was missed. She sends out daily reminders for homework. There are discussion posts and a quiz every lecture but if you read and put in work you will pass easily. I never liked government in high school and she change my viewpoint on that.

Boring monotone no life in lectures no printable packets to follow in video lectures she sounds like she's just reading out of a book work isn't hard as log as you do the readings but between the 8-10 videos per module + reading you're spending all week on her class, amount of Discussion posts are ridiculous + responses = time wasted.

Overwhelming amount of reading lectures, watching lectures, and reading out of the textbook.  Most disappointing for me was the tests.  Never got a C or higher on any exams.  She left a thorough critique for my first exam, and I worked hard to improve.  On the next exam did not get a better grade and left same critique. Dont take if for GE

Professor Hanson is a very knowledgeable teacher and easy to follow. Her assigned work is very easy to complete if you do your part in reading and not falling behind. Highly recommend her for your next Political science class!

I took this class in the spring, and it became my favorite. The professor is engaging, and exams (55% of the grade) are fair but require effort.  Discussions take about one hour. Most got a B, but an A is possible with dedication. I learned a lot and wish she taught more at the JC. Highly recommend it if you want a solid grade.

Don't let the reviews fool you, Prof. Hansen is amazing. She truly only wants one thing at the end of the day - for you to succeed. She sends out daily reminders when things are due, and she always creates a video at the beginning of each week that explains everything going on. She is truly amazing and so caring. She's downright amazing!

Easy class, the papers are really easy to get done. Waiting for the study guide to be posted before even having to read chapters is your best bet. I didn't have to read the chapters usually, I just had to make sure to find the info and make it accessible before actually taking any test.

I had great time with her lectures and the material was very easy to understand with her way of teaching. The grading is clear and they give great feedback when it comes to discussions and essay's in your exams. Super accessible and understanding. My favorite part of her class was the discussions.The topics ranged from past events to current ones.
