Reviews of professor Rebecca Biebel

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Biebel was a sufficient professor, but she can be rather unfair at times when teaching comparative government virtually. Weekly quizzes are given that test on material from the whole chapter, yet students have only fifteen minutes to complete the assessments. Weekly quizzes are 30% of your grade, so it can be stressful.

Gives decent feedback, seems knowledgeable, but her online class is awful. The questions used on her exams were unforgivable, things we never even went over, were covered with a microscope on the exams, which were simultaneously WAY under-timed. Keep in mind this is supposed to be an INTRODUCTORY political science course. My advice: take in person.

This class was one of those that you had to submit a post each week and comment on another classmates post. She's very flexible with what topic of discussion you use. Since the test is open book, it is very detailed so even if you studied the main topics, there's little random questions youd think wouldn't be asked. Learned so much from this class!

While her class wasn't technically challenging, she doesn't offer help beyond the textbook and YouTube videos she shares on the class page. I wish that she had lectures or something to supplement her online classes. Professor Biebel seems knowledgeable, but for her online students, she just isn't very helpful.
