Reviews of professor Michael Harding

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Prof. Harding really goes in depth in his lectures on the concepts covered in the readings. He is a pretty easy-going professor, and often makes the lectures interesting by telling stories here and there. The class is only graded on a few things; 3 exams and an annotated bibliography. Pay attention and the assignments should not be too difficult.

wrote what he wrote on the board in my work, yet he continued to question my phrases. my work was based off his teachings, so confused why he was confused. did not teach material he asked questions on, insensitive towards others and thinks he is above all, stay away.

Grades disscussions easy, while tests & quizzes are fine. After my POTUS was graded it dropped my grade 5 WHOLE points. He grades the project very hard and the rubric is very confusing and unclear. Both extra credit assignments are worth practically nothing and he only responds to emails he deems worthy. Would not reccommed, he's super opinionated!

This professor does not follow his clear guidelines when grading.

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Quizzes weren't hard, discussions were long and a lot of work. I took 4 week class it was nuts but I barely made it with an A. Prof seemed okay till the end. I had tech problems turning in my final project so the formatting was off, he never responded to my email, and my final grade was poor. His only comment was that he didn't like it. No thanks!

In this class he grades 3 exams and one annotated bibliography. I never touched a book but got an A just off of his explanations of the materials in class. He does really notice when people miss continuously and does not feel bad for you if you skip class. All his exams are online and outside of class and you have about a week to do them.

Great class. Would recommend professor. Quizzes/Test come straight from the book. Nothing proctored. Just don't procrastinate on your essay and it'll be an easy A

dont understand his high ratings. man practically degraded people's knowledge and expected them to be philosophical wizards, kids dropped like flies in lectures and he was the one upset/rather than looking at himself in the mirror. gives no feedback and has no respect for students, stay away if you're not a lover of philosophy.

The POTUS project is one of the worst projects I have taken in my life, because of the fact that it is a make-or-break assignment and has an extremely confusing and difficult rubric. This class has a lot of discussion boards and quizzes, but people should mainly look up for the POTUS essay, he grades it extremely harshly.
