Reviews of professor Eric Kessel

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
One of the best Professors at WSU, I recommend taking him for any courses. He made learning fun and there was barely any assignments through out the course.

He is clear on his expectations from the beginning about attendance and participation, however he does assign lots of time consuming assignments that are just busy work and not super helpful for learning the material. The material itself is not difficult, but his teaching is very unorganized and confusing.

Attendance mandatory. Lecture can be confusing at times, but reading the book helps a lot. The activities relate to material in the book, that can help retain info better for the exams.

Every class period (2x/ week) there is a quiz and/or activity which is graded. How do you expect us to come to EVERY SINGLE CLASS. It is impossible especially when he is a complete mess and does not have a single idea on how to teach. This class should be asynchronous first of all, second of all it is not a hard class he just made it terrible.

Dr. Kessel was kind however he bored the class 2x a week. Unfortunately, he really does not have an effective teaching strategy which caused us to be confused and annoyed for 16 weeks. Every class period is mandatory, quizzes each time, heavy homework. 0/10 class.

Not accessible at all outside of class; snarky, rude, and odd. He also uses a lockdown browser for 2 exams and a final.
