Reviews of professor Kristin Wilson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Anyone hating is illiterate or lacking brain power. Great professor, easy dub for medium-high iq folks.

Professor Wilson is nice but her expectations are way too high. She assigns a ridiculous amount of reading and makes quiz questions super tricky. Even if a majority of the class got a question wrong, she still counted it. The reading responses are an easy 100 but everything else is overly complicated and difficult. Makes an easy core class hard.

I thought 404 would be easy but it actually isnt. 6 hw assignments, 2 midterms, a final paper and a final exam. The assignments are easy but the rest is no walk in the park so just expect some work. Kristin is super smart but not a very confident speaker

Discussion posts for every class, responses are usually 3-4 paragraphs and the average score is an 85 per post. A lot of readings outside of class, quizzes are multiple choice but the final is essays. She pushes you in class when you answer, which I get it's to make you question your reasoning but it feels like shes attacking you in front of class

This class is awful, way too many assignments and readings.

Your grade comprises of two quizzes, one final, and is heavily weighted on participation. While Prof Wilson can be an engaging professor at times, she is very vague on her expectations, guidelines, and policies. Quizzes are difficult, expect to read more than 50+ pages per week, and discussion post grades can vary. Take another professor.

One or two questions on quizzes may be tricky, but I don't think they are hard at all. I also skimmed through the readings, which is sufficient for this class. Components that I absolutely hate: long discussion posts and final exam. Just ignore those that write 800-world essay for each discussion. There are more meaningful things in life to do...

Prof Wilson is nice, but she assigns a ridiculous amount of reading. Also, the final paper for this course requires a lot of abstract thinking about the ethical concepts she teaches in class. For business students who are more numbers-heavy, it's tough to write the way she wants you to, even if you meet with her in office hours.

In-class participation is weighed too heavily into final grades and accounts for 20-30%, when many students may be shy and have difficulties speaking up. There are frequent discussion posts that are graded very harshly and take an insane amount of time to complete. I would not recommend taking this course with this professor.

Dr. Wilson is one of the smartest teachers I've met. Yes you have to do a discussion post for 9/11 classes, but it's directly based on what was discussed in class and you have 5 days after class to submit. People who complain just don't want to give effort and get bad grades as such. Engage with the material and get a good grade.
