This class was really more so about learning than your grade. Not very stressful, and it was easy to keep up with work.

She prides herself on being responsive and really listens to her students! I will say it is a lot of work for only 2 credits but she makes the class very engaging!

Honestly, the other reviews are pretty spot on. Dr. Salem is incredibly professional, very clear of her expectations, and incredibly organized. Not difficult, but a heavy workload. Expect to spend as much time on it as other 4-5 unit classes.
Dr. Salem is very helpful and does want her students to succeed.

Professor Salem is very clear about her class expectations and what needs to be done. The syllabus outlines the grading scale and every assignment in detail. The two quizzes in this class are very straight forward and she provides a study guide. This class is not difficult, but the workload is a bit heavy for 2 units. Overall, its a fun class that helps you get to know your cohort and you shouldn't be stressed about taking it.

Dr. Salem is incredibly professional and direct in what she expects from her students, and she does take into consideration the comments and concerns of her class as well.
This class percentage consists of two quizzes, two individual assignments, and one group project that is broken up into three assignments you turn in at different dates.
What I liked about Dr. Salem's grading process is that she actually gives you the rubrics she and her TAs use to grade the assignments, and this was incredibly helpful because it helps you tailor your paper to what is actually important.
The quizzes (one is a "midterm" and the other is the "final") are very easy and not cumulative; just memorize the study guide and you'll get an A!
Another interesting aspect of this class is that she has "nurse interviews" where nurses come in and present to the class what it is that they do and what their journey was in order to get to where they are now. You are even able to ask questions afterwards which is great because this is something we may not get a chance to do until a few quarters later.
All in all, this is a pretty easy going class--just make sure to do your assignments before the deadlines and don't wait to do the study guides until the last minute!

This class is dull, but the expectations are clear and she really makes an effort to get to know us and to allow us to get to know each other. It's not really her fault that the class is rough, the material itself is too abstract. She's great though!
