Reviews of professor Kimberly Glackin

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Professor Glackin is okay. The main problem is her expectations, many of which were never communicated in her assignments or syllabus. For example, she expected peer replies on discussion posts but never asked for them initially; she only deducted points and informed me after. The homework and quizzes in Pearson also have way too many questions.

I took a stats class with Glackin and was very nervous going in. I shouldn't have been! She was an amazing professor who truly cared whether her students succeeded. She was easy to approach and was willing to help when necessary. We were also allowed to use one 8x11 note sheet for each test, which was very helpful. But, make sure you attend class!!

Oh my gosh. I've never seen a larger workload in my life. For the Winter term class, in just the FIRST WEEK, I had 6 quizzes, 4 papers (4+ pp.), 4 reading chapters, and 2 tests! She tried to well-oil her machine, but instead made a huge maze with REALLY strict rules. Maybe she taught fine, but my GPA can't risk it.

Like most, I was nervous about taking stats. But this is the professor you want to take. She spends time in & outside of class making sure you're getting the concepts. A totally judgement-free & patient environment. Think of this class as an "intro to stats" rather than a deep dive. You can use cheat sheets for exams, so don't skip class lectures.

Do not take this class from Prof. Glackin. She didn't teach us anything. She read slides that were full of word-for-word content from the textbook and that was it. She barely explained assignments and didn't provide rubrics and then graded incredibly harshly when you didn't meet her expectations (the expectations she never communicated). Terrible.

I took PSYC 210 (Research Methods in Psychology) with Professor Kim Glackin and she was a great teacher but not as communicative with her students as I feel she could have been. This may be attributed to the fact that this was an online course, because I believe it could be better taken in person. As a professor however, she was great.
