| Additional Comments |
This was one of the easier classes I took this semester but also felt that I learned something from it. Professor Clayton is always well-prepared for class and is very knowledgeable in her subject matter. She has Power Points that communicate the notes she lectures about in class and she posts them on her website where you can access them and print them off. She even puts a study guide up on her website before the tests which is basically where all of the questions for the test comes from.
You have six tests the entire semester over 2-3 chapters in the textbook and your lowest test grade is dropped (the first exam is mandatory by the way). This is pretty cool because if you get high scores on the first 5 exams that equal out to an A then you can skip the last exam and thus provide yourself with one less final exam to take. Furthermore, she gives you extra credit on the exams which can definitely help you by the end of the course. You are allowed two unexcused absences over the course of the semester and after that your grade gets penalized. Also, you have about three homework assignments during the semester but she gives you several weeks to do them, they aren't that difficult, and they aren't just busywork.
Here's the basic grading breakdown:
80% (five exams)
10% (homework)
10% (attendance and class participation)
Overall, I thought Professor Clayton was a very fun professor but I only had one complaint and that's that she isn't very energetic. She has a tendency to lecture for over an hour in a relatively monotone voice that put a lot of people to sleep in the class I was in. Nevertheless, if you take this class and pay attention as well as fill in the study guide she provides before the tests and study it for several hours then you can definitely make an A in here.
Recommended class.
