Expecting an A

Professor Coleman is a nice professor, allows redos for all assignments but the final so it's easy to get a good grade even if you didn't do well the first time. Always has time for questions etc. Values participation and attendance a lot so if you're not going to go to her class don't take it. Discussion boards are worth 40% of your grade but are easy to complete, the rest is split between 2 short essays and one final paper plus attendance and participation. Very knowledgable in her area of teaching.

This class was interesting and engaging. We had to learn a lot of language/discourse specific terms and tools, but Prof. Coleman did not expect or require you to know them inside and out. As long as you make a good faith effort to understand them for discussions, she seemed satisfied. Class periods were a mix of discussions and lectures. Some days she would talk at us the whole time but there were many days where we watched/read material and analyzed it. The papers weren't bad. Topic prompts were broad. Honestly, I thought she was an easy grader, but I know many of my classmates disagreed. I was surprised to receive an A in this class. I probably gave it 6 out of 10 on the effort scale. I think Prof. Coleman is a good teacher with high but not unreasonable expectations.
