Reviews of professor Joseph Diminutto

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Exams were designed to be impossible. Each of the four exams he gave us were more headache-inducing and by a long shot more difficult than many 400 level classes I've taken. Absolutely absurd to introduce this level of rigor for a 100-level class. Avoid at all costs.

Gave the best lectures of the professors I've had during the pandemic. Goes through slides and gives the information necessary for the assignments. The quizzes are based on the weekly readings or videos.

He is a very quirky guy which I liked. Class can be boring since he reads of powerpoint. If class attendance and participation is good he lets you use flashcard with test material on it for you to use on test day so it was an easy A on tests for me. He gives bonus points. I believe there was 2 hw assignments, 4 exams, 1 final group presentation.

So make sure to have a good notes for your exams. 4 exams total, and each exam will cover reading quizzes and notes from the lecture. Very easy A if you know how to study for this class. Make sure you also do every assignments in class so in the end of the semester, he may gives you some extra points.

Lectures are pre-recorded and lengthy. A typical week in this course will include a Reading Quiz, Video Quiz, and a Discussion Board. Most quiz/exam questions are worded identically to the lecture or reading, so have transcripts and texts open, because Ctrl + F will be your best friend. Class is light work, even if you procrastinate!
