Unfair workload in comparison to other sections. BEWARENRSG2210 2025-02-04 03:18:15 +0000 UTC
Very passionate and enthusiastic professor. There's no lectures - tested purely on textbook material. There was a ton of group projects/presentations. Grades very fairly.NRSG1205 2020-05-01 03:52:18 +0000 UTC
She is the worst teacher I have taken. She may say she is available outside of class, but she is not. She barely answers emails and whenever you ask her a question she just tells you to look at the syllabus. She is very bad at giving lectures and never knows what is going on.NUR105 2019-11-14 13:59:59 +0000 UTC
TERRIBLE. DO NOT TAKE HER. she should really be fired. She does not represent the northeastern nursing school well at all. she says she cares for her students but she does not attempt to understand their coursework for other classes and is excessive with her amount of work for an irrelevant class. 0/10 would recommend - almost transferred bc of herNRSG2210 2019-09-13 16:50:22 +0000 UTC
Professor McCool is one of the worst professors I have ever had. Is terrible with lectures and teaching in general. Acts like she has no idea what is going on. Grades papers ridiculously with no logic. Made me question if I wanted to be in the nursing program. DO NOT TAKE HER!!NRSG1205 2019-11-12 15:53:30 +0000 UTC
She grades solely on exams basically, but does not base the exams on anything you do in class.NRSG2210 2018-05-16 17:33:50 +0000 UTC
She has clear grading criteria. There is a relatively easy group project where you complete your own work and submit it with other people. There is a pretty easy individual project. The tests and quizzes are easy to prepare for. Everything is online. She's always available to answer questions. She cares about her students' needs. Reach out to her.NRSG1205 2016-04-24 12:04:03 +0000 UTC
Choose another teacher. She doesn't teach the content on the quizzes, and is very vague when outlining what will be on the test, whereas the other teachers tell their students upfront. She is grades harshly with the critical thinking questions, where the other teachers grade on completion. You have better things to study.NRSG2210 2015-12-08 13:09:03 +0000 UTC
Not clearNRSG1205 2016-04-05 08:56:18 +0000 UTC
Easiest class of the semester. The only assignments I had to do was write a paper on a behavior change project, and read an article or two. There were only two tests which she allowed us to take "from the comfort of our own beds." They were just reflective essays. Take this class! You'll do a lot of meditating and journal writing.NRSG1205 2012-12-06 19:50:15 +0000 UTC
