Good professor. Interesting but not required lectures, and not much work outside 3 big maps (group projects) that can be mostly done in class. Lenient with grading and timings and super nice.

Honestly this class was more work than I thought it was going to be. I dropped another I-Series class just to take this one and I do not think I made the right choice. There are just so many little tedious assignments that you have to do and it gets a bit frustrating. But I will say Roan is a nice professor and really does give good feedback. In the beginning, I feel as if she was pretty lenient with grades but as the class progressed she got a bit stricter. My advice is take her for 240 if you’re in the STEP minor, but do not take this class just for the I-Series credit like I did.

Cool teacher that doesn't give too much work for a class that fulfills 2 gen ed requirements. Lectures are interesting but not required, and apart from weekly readings (that she encourages you only skim through), the only significant work in the class are 3 maps that can be done mostly in class. Would recommend

Fair with gradings, gives ~30 min of homework a week. The big projects of the class, the maps, take a significant amount of time to complete (but can be done mostly in class), and they are the only stressful part of this course. Lectures were interesting but not required, and she really tried to make the class fun.

Roan is nothing if not the ideal professor for this class. She is clearly knowledgeable about the subject, both confident and passionate to speak on the variety of topics that the course covers. While the class does assign a lot of work, it is by no means unmanageable. Pretty sure the class needs to assign this much work to be deserving of 3 credits and fulfilling both IS and SP geneds, certainly not the fault of Roan. She even encouraged us to skim the readings to get the main point rather than read their entirety. She always tries to engage with students, and has engaging lectures that are even fun at times. She is fair with grading, always gives feedback, and reads our journal entries in full to give personal responses to what we have to say.

There is more work in this one class than in the majority of my other classes. It is ridiculous
