Reviews of professor Juli McShay

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Online. 12 chapters bookwork - easy. Weekly activities and 6-8 page essay - hard. 75 question final - hard. Online lectures not that useful for the final but you need to watch anyway for the weekly activity. The high difficulty is because a lot of writing. The professor gives hard critical thinking assignments.

Professor McShay is tough but fair. I love her classes.

Professor McShay was not a good professor when it comes to actually teaching students the curriculum. It feels more like she sees current political events, and has discussions about them with the class. She tells you to go over the textbook on your own, with no real guidelines, which honestly made me feel like I was teaching myself the material.

I took her for the summer and she was amazing! Lots of class discussions, group readings from the textbook, and videos related to the content was shown. She's open-minded and cares about her students passing. She's not afraid to challenge her students' critical thinking skills. Homework consists of open book "tests" from the textbook.

I honestly don't think she ever gave a full lecture. The classes felt more like get togethers than an actual place of learning. I also didn't like her attitude and made me feel like she didn't like me the 2 times I asked a question but maybe that's just me!

Took her for a dual credit online course. Was unorganized for the 1st couple of weeks. Lax. Usually responds quickly to emails. Assignments consist of homework assignments and attendance assignments but both are simple. Not many lectures, however. Signature assignment consists of a 7-10 page essay in Chicago style.
Not the best, but not the worst.

F2F she's nice. We watched more Netflix than we had lecture time.
Horrible grader, waits till last minute to input grades. Very disrespectful in emails. No review for Final, so you have no clue what to study because in class we watched Netflix 85% and her lectures were not prepared and VERY unorganized. If you want to learn don't take this class!
