Reviews of professor Devin Shaw

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Don't take this class unless you're genuinely interested in Philosophy. It definitely isn't a GPA booster.

I just finished up a semester with Devin and had an awesome experience. Although we had our classes cut short due to covid-19, the classes we did have were great. He would end early quite often (even in a 1.5 hour class that is 2 days a week he would end 30 mins in lol). I highly highly recommend him if you need to take PHIL. Great Prof. Little HW

Professor Devin Shaw is one of three best professors I have Had in my entire undergrad academic life He knows his job very well, his lectures are unforgettable he knows how to deal with crazy student, he is tough in his plan and the way he wants to deliver the topic he spends a lot from his soul and his language to make you understand the topic.

I really didnt enjoy this class. He is fighting to stay relevant and often tries to be edgy and relatable. His teaching style is lazy and he somehow makes the readings less understandable. He likes students who make him feel cool. His grading is hard but fair however his comments are not constructive just mean. Least favourite at Douglas

Dr. Shaw is an interesting prof, and is quite passionate about philosophy. Overall, he is a solid choice, however, this course is test heavy with 80% of the grade being exams. He does offer the chance to replace the lowest grade, I just which that the course wasn't as test heavy.
