Reviews of professor Snehal Shirke

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
The course is all projects. Smaller projects are: Illustrator, Photoshop, Prototyping tools. There is a course long group project (redesigning a government website) that is a significant portion of the grade. Projects can be submitted early for feedback which is helpful considering vague instructions. Grades were not put in until the class ended.

I was skeptical since day one of her class. Shes a very tough grader and will give you a bad grade if you don't do the assignments perfectly. She gives some feedback on assignments, but comments are vague. She takes points off for minor things such as VERY slight formatting problems. Overall, I would not recommend taking her class.

Lenient grader with well written criteria so you know exactly what is expected to get a good grade. Grade based on a few major assignments but they were nothing too difficult. The due dates for all the assignments are on the home page of the D2L page which is very helpful. The biggest assignments are group assignments at the end of the semester.

Vague Explanations on assignments and a tough grader. Received an 88.5% B after maintaining an A the whole semester... Personally id recommend taking a different professor if you can. if not chose your groups wisely being most of the work is group projects. Missed Deans List bc of this class! smh

I took technical writing as summer class, so it was more fast-paced and it felt like there was a lot of assigned work every week. She provided a helpful online textbook. She included her grading criteria for most of the work, so if you follow the criteria then you should get a good grade. Her feedback was constructive too.

There were a lot of assignments/projects that we had to do throughout the semester, but luckily, she didn't grade too harshly. Attendance wasn't mandatory most of the time, so she provided plenty of online learning materials. She responds to emails quickly and is very lenient/understanding when it comes to late work.

There were 3 quizzes and about 6 total assignments. We also had to present our professional identity 3 separate times in front of the class for a grade. 
For a course where she mostly just reads from online lectures in class, the attendance policy should've been more lenient. She provided some learning resources but I wish there were more of them.

This professor is honestly the worst. Terrible at communicating and when you reach out to her for help, she is still gives you a hard time. She is very unorganized and a lot of her instructions for certain assignments aren't clear. For this to be a class about clear communication, she isn't very good at it herself.
