Reviews of professor Melanie Good

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
For the previous reviews stating that she did not teach physics and played instruments for a lecture; it was the final lecture of the semester so of course it would be more laid back. She used the instruments to help demonstrate waves and frequency which was what was being taught. It helped me understand more efficiently. I liked Prof Good a lot.

She claimed her RMP reviews to be biased because they were written by mostly men. Not true. That statistic doesn't change the fact that she is a bad teacher. Her problem-solving is always a roundabout, odd way. And her lectures just weren't structured in a helpful way

She started off our first lecture with a slide on how qualified in her field she was. No doubt that she is extremely smart, she is just a terrible teacher. Before each new unit, you watch 20ish minutes of videos, then you go to lecture where she does practice problems and badly explains what she already explained in the videos.

You will be teaching yourself physics. Lectures are absolutely pointless.

During our first lecture, Dr.Good stated that her negative reviews were rooted in misogyny. This is far from the truth. Her flipped class style is ineffective at best and lectures are uninformative, convoluted, and drawn out. I am lucky I took AP Physics C: Mechanics in high school or else I don't know if I would've passed and/or learned anything.

All you need to know is Good went over ONE practice problem for frequency and waves and proceeded to play instruments for an hour. We clapped for her performance, assuming that that topic wasn't important enough for a full lecture. I will be watching Nero's lecture videos to make up for a lack of physics education, at a school I paid to go to.

 Melanie Good's instructional approach, fails to kindle the flame of curiosity within students. Melanie's assessments are like withered leaves, failing to nourish the roots of critical thinking. In the chronicles of pedagogy, Melanie Good's approach lies dormant, a somber sonnet echoing through the halls of educational tradition. Easy Class Though.

Melanie Good is a very nice lady and she is very caring. However, her lectures are kind of a hot mess. I found it very difficult to take notes during her lectures as they were kinda all over the place. I feel that she sometimes does not explain concepts properly as she usually either overexplains or underexplains.

She does not write her own test questions and told the class that she uses a random question generator to make her tests. This means that the questions on tests do not always align with what is taught in lectures. She also required us to take a survey regarding our personal beliefs (not physics-related) three times throughout the semester.
