Prof. Halverson is without a doubt the best professor at UW. She was extremely helpful in and out of class, and is so passionate about the subject that it makes you want to be passionate about it too. Lectures relate to current media & education concepts, & she encourages students to speak in discussion. You wont regreat taking one of her courses!
