Geography
Professors: Respond to evaluations by creating an account
i took human environmental problems w/ her as an online course so idk how she is in a classroom setting, but the online class was very easy as long as you just do the assignments which were discussions, question set, and an untimed quiz. the question sets took a long time to actually do them, but were relatively easy. if you want to take a class to get a good grade with only giving in moderate amount of work then this is the class for you
I had this professor for Geography of Canada and the US and she was awesome. Not sure what her attendance policy is but i went to just about every class and had no problem getting a A in it. She has been to almost every single national park in the US and knows a lot about them. Most quizes are on D2L and they have no time limit. The others are map quizes which are extremely easy if you study a little bit. Gives you study guides prior to tests and the same questions are on the test. If you come to class and pay attention little/no studying needs to be done throughout the week. I would reccomend taking her if you can, she is very interesting to listen to! Best professor I've had so far!

I switched into her class and I am really glad that I did. Jean is my favorite professor. She works hard to make sure that her students understand the course matter and is very open to helping out when necessary. She's not there to have students fail. Study and do the work and you'll do fine.
