Reviews of professor Magan Calhoun

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I took Dr. Calhoun in person last semester for ACCT 2010 and was glad that I could take her again this semester for ACCT 2020. Canvas was well organized. You watch weekly lecture videos that aren't long. She also provides videos of her working through problems. Exams are open note & textbook. One homework assignment due each week & a short quiz.

I personally like Dr. Calhoun she is a tough grader and her exams are challenging. She expects you to do your part and read and watch pre lectures, which only helps you by the way. I have taken other professors and I feel like if you are open and honest with her about a problem she would work with you, there are other professors who don't.

Professor Calhoun gives a lot of work but everything lines up with the exams she gives. Take the paperwork that she gives you because this class isn't an easy class to pass unless you take the time and do your work. She was always willing to get online to answer questions. ASK QUESTIONS.

You MUST watch the videos posted before class bc she typically did a quick "review" of the material, then spent most of the class on practice problems. Didn't realize these were required not supplemental until week 3, asked for help and was told that she can't help me if I don't help myself bc I hadn't watched the videos. Spent 6+ hrs on hw weekly

The class is challenging and it's a reverse classroom style. So you watch the lecture before you go to class, and then we do problems in class. She is an amazing professor and really explains everything well. She's a really nice person too. Would recommend her!

Dr. Calhoun is easily my favorite professor at UCCS! She cares a lot for her students, and she will go the extra mile to make sure that they are successful. Her classes are hard and a lot of work is needed outside of class to be successful, but they are worth the effort.

Professor Calhoun has her class set up so you watch recorded lectures outside of class, and work on example problems during class. There is a lot of work to do and plenty of resources. If you are struggling in the class, there are lots of opportunities to improve, but if you're doing well in the class, it can be quite tedious.

Professor Calhoun was great. She has a flipped classroom so you watch lecture videos outside of class, then do examples in class. She was great with teaching in the remote setting so I know she would be amazing in the classroom. I wanted to take her again for ACCT2020 but she wasn't teaching it. If you get the opportunity to have her, DO IT.
