Reviews of professor Sarah Knutie

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Dr. Knutie is an amazing professor and always tries to make class fun for students. There are no tests, just take-home quizzes (easy if you do them with friends), participation-based trivia days (just need to show up to class), and two projects. Class was really fun and easy.

Dr. Knutie clearly cares about her students. She is always available to help via email, especially with group projects. The projects are done in groups of 4-5 and pretty easy to complete. Exams are also easy as long as you review the slides carefully. All information needed for the exams are on the slides. Don't bother getting the textbook.

Tough grader, uses "pass/fail" type assignments where if you don't pass you get 0%, which can be impactful to your grade. Beware. Lots of reading research papers and taking assessments on them, and of you do not get an 8/10 you get no credit, again very detrimental if you do not pass. Small opportunities for extra credit.

Professor Knutie is an awesome person. She did assign a lot of work (weekly assessments, group and individual projects) but there were no in-class exams, which was great. She is knowledgeable and is very well-versed. Her teaching style is slightly boring, but some lectures are more engaging than others. I would recommend taking this class for sure.
