Reviews of professor Erika Strandjord

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Almost all assignment types (Summaries, for example, have the option of dropping bad grades (i.e. you only do 3/4 summaries)). While the teacher herself is good, the TAs of UWP 011 are picky graders. Expect to almost always receive at least .5 points lost on each assignment. The class is extremely easy and instructions + new material is very clear.

dr s is a very fun prof. she is super helpful & accessible outside of class. we usually had 2 readings per week ab 10-20pgs each & we had to make objective summaries for them and then every 2 weeks or so we had a longer paper assignment. we had a predictable routine of assignments which made it easy to stay on top of things. very organized class.

Dr. Strandjord is a really caring professor. She is extremely flexible and works with students to make sure they are doing well and producing good work. The assignments for the class are not too difficult, but you must complete all the assignments to pass the class. Her lectures are entertaining, relatable, and informative. Highly recommend!

Here is the breakdown for UWP 100A, it is a contract grade of a B if u do the minimum work. To obtain a B+ or higher, you have to complete a final project and a second last assignment. You take the average of those and that will be your grade. For ex) final project 40/40, last assign. 30/40, equals final grade 70/80.

She's a very fun person and it seems like she cares, but the grading rubric for our writing assignments is very bad. If you mess up on one word, you get a 0 on a certain part of the rubric, bring your grade to an 80%. It doesn't matter if you messed up on 1 word or 100. It's going to be a 0 on the rubric
