Most Helpful Review
I took the Gerontology/Policy Frontiers in Aging class with Levy-Storms. Overall, I find her to be very lazy. Most of her lectures are guest lectures. She does not write some of her own lecture material, and she uses the test bank instead of writing her own test questions. Furthermore, her grading scheme is really arbitrary and I found that most people are assigned a B+ or so. (What kind of grading scheme gives 80% of the class a B+ grade??) She is really vague on her guidelines of what she wants in her assignments, except for nit picky things like timing of speeches, where you can't even go over 5 seconds of your allotted time. Lastly, I could put up with all of this if she was interesting. SHE'S NOT. She is incredibly boring. I'm quite interested in the material outside of class, and I work in the field, so I thought I would like this class. well, I didn't. Don't take this for an easy A -- too many papers and projects that aren't easy to get A grades on.
