Reviews of professor Lieke Van Heumen

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
This class was really easy, just a lot of busy work! I do wish there were less readings and more lectures but overall very easy and lots of extra credit.

This class does require a lot of reading but it is doable. The professor and TAs are also very sweet and understanding so if you need an extension for an assignment they will give it to you. Quizzes are open note and are weekly. As well as weekly assignments

Really nice and understanding professor. Online class, so not much direct interaction, but valuable course material is provided.

There is an overwhelming amount of reading, but the lectures are shorter and broken up into smaller parts. There is a variety of media presented which was nice. The quizzes can be a little tough, but they aren't too bad if you have read the material.

Van-Heuman is such a caring and sweet professor. The syllabus is clearly laid you so you know what you're doing every week. A lot of reading (that she provides free) but they're interesting! The TA's give great feedback quickly on every assignment so you know what to improve on. Discussion board participation is important. Highly recommend!

Dr. Van Heumen is the best professor I have had at UIC. This class is amazing and she really cares about her students. Participation grades are filling out a google form and that also counts for attendance. There are weekly reading quizzes online, but all quizzes and all tests are open notes and you can look at uploaded lectures.

She's very kind, patient, and understanding. Her class was easy and interesting. I loved her guest speakers. Lots of reading but it's manageable. She offers lots of extra credit and our lowest reading engagements from each unit are dropped. Easy-ish open-note quizzes. We can choose how we're graded. No textbook.

If you get a bad TA to grade your assignment it isn't worth taking this class. Too much homework and quizzes for every week. We need more time to do the assignment. It's not all due on one day, but spread out throughout the week and you can't do it beforehand only opens on monday.
