Horrible. Attendance was worth the point you got for it. The course is based on her personal theories which she in no way establishes as credible. Her enforcement of syllabus and said policies was very suspect. She does not care about student learning as much as she does saying what she feels like saying. She emphasizes every other word out of her mouth, which leads to it quickly losing its effect. I'd say more but they'd just delete it.

Dr. Bickle is probably the most student oriented professor on campus. I never experienced a moment of her being unorganized or where she made fun of a student she knew wouldn't mind. (Meaning she has had that person in class before and therefore knew that person didn't mind being lovingly teased.) What she did do was compliment people a lot on their clothing and accessories and used those as examples of good buys. Also, Dr. Bickle is very success oriented. She wants her students to succeed therefore she gives lots of examples and great reviews before tests. One key though, is just because she does't talk about it in class doesn't mean it wont be on the test. READ YOUR BOOKS! Overall I loved her teaching style and look forward to many more classes with her.

While this class was an easy A due to the ample amounts of extra credit attendance points given out it may not be worth your time. She is unorganized and unclear. When you ask a question in class she gets really defensive. She also wonders why students don't participate in class - its because she puts down people. Try to stay out of the limelight in the class because she will use you as an example for the entire semester and take up every chance to insult you.

Dr Bickle has to be the most disorganized and confusing person I've ever met. Half the lectures every day were consumed with incredibly confusing information about WebCT or the quizzes or something else that would normally take 30 seconds to explain but took Dr Bickle three weeks. Most of the time the 13 quizzes on WebCT you have to take would be screwed up in some way-i.e. not posted when they were supposed to be, expiring too soon and she messes up posting your grade an average of five times. The syllabus kept constantly changing so we never had any idea when anything was due or when exams were going to be. Half the effort in this class is figuring out what in the world is going on.
