Reviews of professor John Konopka

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Nice and easy going professor. He is often available after class for questions. The material is really easy and readily available, although a bit boring. You can easily learn from his notes & homework. There are 3 exams and in-class quizzes for extra credit. The exams are not hard as long as you know the material and definitely do the studyguide.

Konopka was not a terrible professor. That being said the midterm and final were the majority of the points. He is accessible by email and will set up time for a zoom office hours. He also said straight up that he teaches a MATH BASED class, so everything is about math. He uses Pearson for the textbook and homework which were free.

Konopka was not the best lecturer but better than the professor we had switched with halfway through the semester. The class consisted of HWs and quizzes which helped out your grade a lot but very time-consuming. Exams were so hard that there had to be a major curve with a low-class average. Class was pretty rough but he was very helpful if you ask

only had him for half of the semester. lots of real-world experience, but isn't great at helping you grasp difficult topics. he's a nice guy who will help if you reach out, but not an engaging lecturer. pearson for hw/quizzes which doesn't provide explanations for problems, nor do his lectures. exams are tough (class avg:50-60%) so he adds curve.

Really nice professor, unfortunately, he got stuck teaching boring material. The information is pretty straightforward as long as you do the homework know your math. In class attendance is optional, but he does offer extra credit quizzes graded on completion for coming to class and participation is graded off of that
