Ironically enough, she cancelled class several times this semester, and when this class only meets once a week, the cancelled classes led to many lectures feeling incredibly rushed. She canceled our last class, when we were supposed to present our final presentations and get instructions on our LiveText submission, but since the class was cancelled, every student was really confused about LiveText since the instructions were so unclear. The lectures were also extremely disconnected from our placements, and she told us several times she had no idea where we were placed and what age group we were placed with. The journal entry assignments and reflections don't connect to our placement observations, and several of the observation/schema assessments didn't work for every age group we were placed with. Our grades were incredibly behind the entire semester so no one knew what their grade was until after the last week of class. She can be funny, and is generally chatty and pleasant in lecture, but she's frustrating to work with as a student.

This class is a lot of work by design because of the students' teaching. I didn't mind her standards like other people in the reviews because it's just part of college and the professional program. There is so much overlap with other courses taken at this time for early edu majors (EDHD425 and EDHD314), so we all zoned out with repeated content. The class is so incredibly long, and no one's attention span is 3 hours...Nothing to do with the professor, more with the program.

I'm now in my junior year and shes my absolute favorite. she genuinely cares about her students success and makes her classes (for the most part) fun and engaging. I'm excited to take her next sem.
