Dr. J is my favorite professor I've had at Northeastern. If you're interested in the class it will be very easy for you if you're not don't take it. Her class is a welcoming environment and teaches you more about the world than a normal college class does.COMM1412 2018-11-07 14:12:09 +0000 UTC
She's great at facilitating discussions and getting people to talk about difficult topics you wouldn't normally talk/think about. Genuinely enjoyed her class and looked forward to it. I didn't always do the readings, but it still went fine. Exams are graded firmly and so is the paper, but if you go in for extra help I think it makes a difference.COMM3304 2018-05-03 12:33:25 +0000 UTC
Dr. J is easily the best professor I've ever had. She genuinely cares about her students and is incredibly knowledgeable on her areas of research (which also happen to be super interesting). If I attend grad school in the future, she is the reason why. Take a class with her ifCOMM1220 2013-10-23 14:21:52 +0000 UTC
Prof. Jackson is GREAT! I loved every second of her class. Read the assignments, go to class and participate and you'll do great. Without those three, you won't be so happy with your grade.COMM1101 2013-01-12 22:00:07 +0000 UTC
she is a great teacher. really fun and class is not boring. says to read textbook but i did fine without it. pay attention in class and you'll be fine. highly recommend her!COM1101 2012-03-27 15:08:08 +0000 UTC
Dr J is a great professor and I enjoyed her class. However, she is the toughest grader I've ever had. She thinks a C is a good grade and that grade means you followed her directions, but didn't go above and beyond. I'm sorry, but isn't that the difference between an A and B? Don't take this class if you're not willing to give up some GPA points.COMM1412 2016-04-20 09:57:06 +0000 UTC
I was doing fine in the class, up until the final project. Even after meeting with her to discuss the specifics of the project and her telling us we were headed in the right direction, we got a 70 and my grade in the class fell 10 points. No concerned email or anything from her end, which I think is expected for giving a 70 to an A student.COMM1412 2015-05-04 12:38:08 +0000 UTC
