Reviews of professor Barry Mowell

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Mowell cares about the subject AND the student, and is a fair grader! This  was the first class where I not only learned a lot but that my hard work was reflected in a good grades. The information was well condensed, assignments fair and clear, and he is there for his students. I would take all of my classes with him if they were offered.

Very strict on citations and this heavily influences your grade on papers. No feedback on the actual content of the paper, positive or negative. I would be more willing to accept the deduction for citation errors if constructive feedback was given. Overall, good class. I took IRLS492.

Time consuming class compared to others in the program, but fair grader and clear requirements even if the subject can be a snore. 8 forum posts, midterm, 5 HW assignments and a research proposal paper was a bit much, but manageable even when taking another class during the second part of this one. HW worth more than forum so prioritize.
