Unless you can recite the answers verbatim out of the book, you will not do well in her courses. I thought I would do well in the class. I read, went to class, studied for the exams, but alas it was pointless. If you look at her syllibus it doesn't look that bad, and it's not the projects it's the way she grades. | |
She is a hillarious woman. Yes, she is always 5-10 minutes late, but at least one other person was also late at each class. To make up for it, we never took off early like my other courses AND we made up for a holiday for which we missed class. Koffman is pretty much "by the book." courses are not structured around the book nor are the exams. However, s | |
Dr. Koffman is very friendly and understanding if you have a problem, but her courses are very dull and she is constantly 15 to 20 minutes late to class. I would not recommend taking any of her courses if you can help it. | |
Dr. K is a harmless old woman who may be a bit set in her ways, but her syllabus outlines what needs to be done. Do it, and you should get a great grade in the class. Her exams are a bit rough, but if you take great notes in class you get to use them on the exam, so no worries there! Also, she uses the overhead projector still and it's quite comical! | |
Infuriating. I am a highly- motivated student who enjoys learning, and she is killing Ed. Psych for me. She is never any less than 15 minutes late and never apologizes or even addresses it. She does nit-pick on papers, and exams consist of word-for-word regurgitation of courses. Which are mind-numbing as well. Waste of money & time. | |
I am in class now. I have a 4.0 GPA but i'm afraid that will change after this class. she has been often 20 min. late for every class we've had, waisting my time and $$$, both very precious since i have little of either. her notes & courses make no sense & she never post materials on BlackBoard on time or when she says she will. |
