Reviews of professor Joanna Schwartz

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Schwartz is one of the best professors GCSU has to offer. She puts so much into her lectures and her students. At the end of the day she really just wants you to succeed, but you definitely have to put some effort in. You have to look at the material before the exams, and you need to read the articles. This is not a cramming type of exam.

Dr. Schwartz is a great professor. She is down to earth and tries to do things in the best interest of her students. She jokes around a lot and tries to make class very interactive. Attendance isn't mandatory but you will have a reflection due at the beginning of almost every class so I would go. Pay attention in class to succeed on tests.

Dr. Schwartz was one of my favorite professors and I really hope I get to take her again. She gives you one day to miss in each section which ends up being 4-5 days you can miss. The projects are also very easy and tests are hard but not too hard. She also adds a lot of other grades so your test grades wont weigh you down too much. Highly recommend

Schwartz is awesome and one of the best professors I have ever had. She genuinely cares for each of her students and wants them to succeed. If you put in the work, you will do well. Tests aren't that bad as long as you study the study guides. The group project towards the end of the semester is A LOT of work. Start early and choose a good group.

One of the best professors I've taken at GCSU. She is interested in her own material and keeps the lectures interesting. You can tell she cares a lot about her students. Her exams can be a little tricky, but if you study the study guides she posts, you'll do fine.
