Molly Costanza-Robinson

Molly is a very enthusiastic professor, however, this course is very slow paced and often just reiterates high-school knowledge. It is a shame there is not more material that's covered. The course spends a lot of time on very simple concepts and can often feel very slow and boring. Molly made it fun but her exams are not always easy to understand and her question phrasing can be confusing, making you choose the wrong answer. This should not be goal of an exam! I often spent 10 minutes thinking about an exam question, a type of question we never covered in class before.

Professor Costanza-Robinson is very passionate about the course, however I didn't really like her teaching style as it didn't feel like I was learning anything. I also didn't feel like assigned readings didn't relate much to the lecture. I would know because I never did those readings. The Lab section was fantastic with Professor Lapin! He is very nice and you can see that he loves what he does, which is great.

I have absolutely no issues with Professor Costanza-Robinson. in fact, I rather enjoyed her high-energy lectures and clear enthusiasm for the subject. The issue lies in the content of the class. I understand that it is a survey course that serves as an introduction to the environmental studies department and major/minor but the subject matter is incredibly broad (almost common sense to anybody who has even the bare minimum interest in the environment) and we spend more time on parts of it than they merit: three weeks to discuss feedback, another three focusing on the nitrogen or water cycle. The workload is relatively easy if reading heavy, only ramping up when one of the three lab reports you'll write crop up.
