Reviews of professor Chris Blakely

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Ended up dropping because this was the most difficult class for no reason. You have a quiz due before every class and you have to read 15 page documents for the quizzes. He doesnt lecture in class so you have to teach yourself. Dont ask for help mid semester, he gets really mad. Also studied for 3 days before the exam and still made a D.

Asynchronous class. He doesn't seem to care very much about the course and was very hit or miss mood wise, especially if you didn't understand the topic. Class consisted of watching lectures and having a live chat right before the short answers were due. The SA were a huge and awful part of the class. Graded harshly with minimal criteria

Do not take this class. He teaches this course as if it is a 3000 level class. This is Phil 1000, a beginners course. I have never been more confused in a class, until I attended his. He is also very passive aggressive and is not compassionate towards his students at all. Unless you are some philosophy genius and you already know the material.

He treats a 1000 level class like he is teaching students that are getting a PhD in Philosophy. Not the worst though. You get to use your book during exams which makes them extremely easy.

Slightly confused by the other reviews. Mr. Blakely is not a mean teacher he just has expectations. There are hw readings and quizzes, along with 1 or 2 worksheets during class practicing constructing arguments that he grades randomly, he does not take attendance but it is definitely expected. Pay attention, do the work, the tests are online.

There are weekly quizzes (or more) and he gives no feedback that is anywhere near helpful. He does not care about his students success in the slightest. He literally has tattoos that say "no extra credit" and "no second chances." Avoid this professor at ALL COSTS
