Her teaching method and class structure are realistic to what will be expected in the workplace. Group work, collaboration, and participation are a must. She is very clear with her expectations, is always available for students outside of class, and is overall an amazing professor.GST6101 2018-02-27 00:27:41 +0000 UTC
Prof. Lombardi likes group projects. And while the syllabus is usually on point, she can change the criteria and/or deadlines last minute. The readings are usually provided in a timely fashion, but can be last minute depending on what is going on. She is very flexible as longs you discussion the extension request in advance. Provides clear feedbackGST6830 2016-12-26 13:26:10 +0000 UTC
Really great class! Professor Lombardi is very knowledgeable in Global Studies and International relations! There was a lot of reading for this course, as well as constant group projects. If you do not participate, you do not do pass. Great experience overall!GST6101 2015-10-31 12:25:24 +0000 UTC
Very boring classes, she does NOT lecture at all. Having the same conversations in small groups then large groups and online as well. She posts readings a night before class, but she expect us to read it and be ready to talk about it the very next day. Lack of feedback, no answers on emails, and no clear instructions.GST6830 2015-12-19 16:51:45 +0000 UTC
Take online class if you can. On campus class is a waste of time. Every week it's small group discussion then large group discussion based on readings you probably didn't have time to read because they were provided too late. Does not provide feedback, answer emails, or give clear instructions. Overall, disappointing.GST6830 2015-12-08 11:45:49 +0000 UTC
