Reviews of professor John Noras

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
There is lot of reading but lectures help. He answers emails promptly. I had a slow start but improved my grade over the term; extra-credit and makeups. Take the course but you need to be well-organized.

I really enjoyed this class.  I use the information I learned on a regular basis.  I am a lot more concise with my arguments.  I am also catching a lot of the fallacies that are committed daily in the news, social media, and everyday conversations.  Low key, a very useful and important class.  I bought the book to continue to study the concepts.

This professor was great! He gave me a chance to resubmit my work after i was having a difficult time understanding. I had no hope in the beginning but when i spoke with him he was very understanding. Definitely recommend taking him!!

Excellent class.  A writing intensive class that is very valuable and important. I use the information on a regular basis. I find fallacies being committed especially on social media and news articles. I bought the textbook to continue studying the material.

It was a non-writing-intensive course. The professor provides everything and you do your work! Which is super easy. As long as you do the reading and do your work, it's an easy A. Gives extra credit and multiple attempts on tests and homework. Very caring and has clear grading criteria.

I had a slow start due to some family issues, but he was very supportive. He offered extra-credit assignments.

Prof. Noras is one of my favorites. He assigns weekly readings as well as a lecture to summarize the readings and homework questions. He allows multiple attempts on assignments and provides clear feedback. Very fun class!

Prof. Noras helped me catch up with the course material when I feel behind due to health problems. He spent hours with me on Zoom to make sure I understood the material well.

Very nice professor and very understanding. Tests are not that difficult but of the classwork writings were a but hard. Overall a pretty good class. Make sure to turn everything on time.

This was the easiest writing intensive course I have ever taken. This course is very similar to PHI 169 (critical reasoning). Everything was really fast since I took him during the summer but I barely wrote anything for this class. hw and test are mostly multiple choice base. Take him if u need writing intensive or an LEH 355.

This was a summer intensive course, so we moved fast. You need to be well-organized to do well, but he also offers extra-credit assignments and make-up exams. His lectures were useful to understand the reading.
