While Prof Kirkorian never delivers any lectures, this class is well organized and easy to follow. Lots of little assignments, but never too timely of tasks. As easy as an online class gets as long as you put in the work necessary.Rate My Professors ↗
Human development isn't really my "thing," but I did learn a good deal from this class. I was bored throughout most of the readings, but the class was still a solid SoHE elective. I might have found the topics more interesting if the class had been in person. Overall, the class was an easy A and about as demanding as you'd expect for SoHE.
Take HDFS 362 with her! She is amazing.Rate My Professors ↗
Her lectures are to the point and very interesting. Weekly you will have one activity, one discussion post, one discussion response, and a quiz, lowest grade in each will be dropped each week. Just listen to the lectures and take notes on her provided sheets, fill rest in with textbook and you'll be goldenRate My Professors ↗
Amazing professor and very fair class. Several extra credit opportunities.Rate My Professors ↗
Her lectures are really easy to follow and the "quizzes" are right from the lecture and a little from the book. She organized the class very well and she was always available for questions and explanations. Discussions are interesting and worthwhile.Rate My Professors ↗
