Sparkman is all about open dialog and exposing controvertial topics like sexuality, racism, and toxic masculinity. She needs to improve her role as a professor, like her grading criteria. I wrote my midterm 2 weeks early for her to review but did not have time till few days before due. Trend is if you have perfect attendance, you're an A student.Rate My Professors ↗
Catrina is an extremely sweet person. She is an extraordinary woman and I considered myself lucky to be taught by her. Her class is super fun and grading criteria is clear.Rate My Professors ↗
Professor Sparkman is a wonderful person but should never have become a professor. Grading criteria could not have been less clear and arbitrary. The class lacked any form of organisation and structure and what little instructions were given were liable to be contradicted at any moment.Rate My Professors ↗
Professor Sparkman is an extremely nice person with valuable information to teach. She is a horrible professor. She is constantly unorganized to the point of losing exams and blaming the student. Her grading criteria is never clear and is confusing at best. And she is completely unwilling to engage via email or the online grading system.Rate My Professors ↗
The class was fun and easy. The few papers we had were graded poorly, it was optional to talk to her about your midterm paper topic but you were downgraded if you didn't.Rate My Professors ↗
