Her online course system was confusing, too many little assignments here and there to keep up with per week, and a random group project. For a 3-credit? This's doing too much. She would not let you make up anything you missed, not even under serious circumstances. Very heartless professor. Would not recommend taking any course with her.Rate My Professors ↗
- She was my only teachers that didn't let me make up work or extra credit - Used reasons like how I would address her in emails to not give me a certain final grade - She always thinks she's right & won't listen to you. - She said I could get a C if I got a certain score on my final & I got that score she didn't give it to me - Not flexible at allRate My Professors ↗
She will not respond to any emails or posted canvas questions. Her syllabus was outdated and the TA listed was the TA for the class last year and isn't the current one. The current TA's email was not listed anywhere on her page. Go to class or you'll never hear from this woman.Rate My Professors ↗
Prof Ashton is super nice and caring! She loves giving out extra credit so go to class and participate in the activities. She's not a great lecturer but there weren't any exams for online so it wasn't a big problem. Most annoying thing is all the group work, every Thursday was group work and if you have a bad group it sucks.Rate My Professors ↗
Do not take this class. She is horrible at teaching.Rate My Professors ↗
If I would have read the reviews on here first, I would not have taken this course. I can't believe this class happened to me... harder than Econ 101/102. This class moves SO quickly and the exams are impossible to finish in time. I do not recommend this class.Rate My Professors ↗
