Reviews of professor James Davis

Dr. Davis is a great professor, his lectures are engaging and informative, and he truly cares about students and their success in his class. He responds to emails quickly and is always willing to help students.

He does not put grades online so you have to guess at your grade. He goes on tangents several times throughout the class. You do journals for half the semester, but it seems as if they weren't even counted for anything in the end. Only other grades are papers. He never gave a normal question and answer test. He takes a long time to email back.

Kind of a lot of work but nothing too bad. He is very upbeat (and I had his 8 am class) and he is pretty good at explaining things. I would recommend.

He wants you to pass, his class is set up for you to pass. Study and go to si sessions because they help a lot with the exam.

Doctor Davis is the best professor I have had at DePaul so far, the class is daunting at first but he teaches in a way that makes it easy. He's hilarious and makes learning all these relevant life subjects fun.

Overall an awesome dude- nice, funny, and chill. Helpful with questions and with his lectures/notes, full page of notes for midterm. I hate/am bad at math but he got me through it. Definitely recommend.

couldn't recommend a better professor for this class. i had it early in the morning but he always made the class engaging and a follow-along learning style which helped the whole class be on track and awake. He made sure each individual understood the material and although we had many assignments, it was all from things we learned in class.

He's chill and funny. a HUGE amount of homework but he said it's the department's policy, not his. Lectures and assignments are super easy. There's a group assignment in the second half of the quarter, and at the end of the course you'll have a personal essay on the topic your group chose. Caring and will try to explain to his students.

The class is very time consuming, and full of busy work, tho that's a fault of DePaul for the requirements it set. 8 am class, don't take it if you commute, but he is a very good professor, easy to understand, and engaging. Will never make you feel dumb if you have questions, no matter how simple. He wants everyone to do well.

Really great instructor gives out a lot of homework but if you do it guaranteed to pass the class. Also allows exam retakes all semester.
