Amanda Crocker

Crocker does a good job instilling understanding in this course, her projects are a fun way to engage with the material and her grading of them is really fair. The midterm was a very fair exam, it's just long. the hardest aspect of this course is the formal lab report, which if you get started early is also very manageable and easy to do

This course was very demanding and often overwhelming. It met three times a week with a lab, and we also had a required weekly Peer Mentor Group session where we met as a group to work through additional problems. On top of that, there were regular homework assignments, projects, and lab work. Lectures were hard to follow most of the time, and we almost never finished them during class, so the professor would post long recorded lectures that we had to watch outside of class as well. She often went over time, which made me late to my next class. That said, the professor is kind and clearly cares about her students, which helped make the experience a little better.

Professor Crocker’s lectures are organized and detailed. She writes down all important concepts on her slides, which comes in handy when studying for her exams. Her weekly homework packets reinforces the concepts she taught throughout the week. She is very understanding and accommodating, and for harder concepts she would be willing to walk you through them if you go to her office hours. I personally found her teaching style very helpful and effective in helping students understand the relationship and connection between different concepts.
