Reviews of professor Derek Schraner

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
There are three tests that make up most of your grade, and then discussion posts that are there as well. If you watch his pre-recorded lectures and read teh textbook the tests are easy, but it's a lot of note taking and reading.

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Assignments are clear and give lots of room for creative freedom in the actual design. The class is easy if you can read instructions - Derek is a stickler for formatting and attention to detail. He may come off as cold, but he provides really detailed feedback and responds quickly to emails.

This professor is a very tough grader, he's also cold and impersonal.  I do not recommend that you take his course at all.

Don't take the course if you're not ready to put the work in. His assignments are vague but just do a google search to see what's been done in the past. If you want to take CRI 300 as a bird course don't, but if you actually want to learn about Adobe software then do. It is a self-taught course so be ready to work for it
