I liked her a lot more than Brown. She was always willing to answer questions if you had some. Her notes went fast, but tests for PHYSICS 122 were not bad at all.

Pros: She has an enthusiasm that not many teaches have. She wants you to do good in her class and she will try to make the class as interesting as she can.
Cons: She gives weekly online homework.
She's way better than Brown. She knows what she's doing and she wants to make the class worth your time. She tells and teaches everything that is on her tests.

Pros: Dr. Pope is very helpful on a one-on-one basis. If you don't understand something, go to her office hours & she will try to explain the material as best as possible; the lectures something seem very confusing.
Cons: Dr. Pope teaches the material with hard examples on a powerpoint, which can be very difficult to understand.

Pros: She does a good job explaining the material and has notes you can print off from blackboard and fill in as she lectures. The homework is through MasteringPhysics so it will be like MasteringChemistry which I'm sure most people have used. Homework is usually due once a week.
Cons: Nothing really that bad about Dr. Pope except for the fact that I took Physics in high school so it's boring to me.

She doesn't take attendance but there are clicker questions and those points will affect your final grade. The homework can be difficult/tricky (and there's lots of it!) but it's usually more difficult than the actual test on the material. However, on tests if you miss 1-2 questions you can kiss your shot at an A for that test goodbye.They have started using online tests so you get your grade back as soon as you submit it and can even see which questions you missed and what the correct answer was. She puts past exams up on blackboard and they are very helpful study tools. Tests are multiple choice.
