Reviews of professor Karie Riddle

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Class readings are long and difficult but you can still get a decent grade without reading them if you come to class. She is really smart and professional so you wont regret taking her class if you are interested in the content.

She is really passionate about what she teaches. Her intelligence and enthusiasm is visible, and the readings are really interesting. I try not to skip her class solely out of interest for what will happen/what I'll learn. Her PowerPoints can be a little boring, but discussion is always fun. Plenty of papers but she's an easy grader & they're short

Professor Riddle is a very fair professor. This course is all about Human Rights and is taught from a pro-UN/Government Involvement perspective on securing HR. She gives students ample opportunity to respectfully disagree with her lectures, and is very fair in grading quizzes and papers. If you attend class, take notes and engage, you will do fine

She loves class discussion more than hearing herself speak and makes your contribution feel valuable, which makes class enjoyable. She's incredibly smart and very willing to answer questions and talk outside of class. She's a pretty easy grader, but still gives great feedback on papers.

She's a really good prof for this being her first gig, plus she's like ridiculously smart. The class is really great if you're passionate about international relations/human rights/international political theory. The one issue is the power points, lectures can be a bit boring solely going off the slides.

There is a lot of reading, but everything we read is interesting, especially if you're passionate about human rights! She gave us time in-class for group work, which was a plus. The only thing I thought was unnecessary was having students volunteer to read quotes from her PowerPoint. There's also a lot of papers, but they're really short.

This is not the easiest class, but the prof is so kind and understanding that it never feels like a chore. She is fair in her feedback, and is always looking for ways to improve the course. And she is really good at making all the students feel heard, especially when they offer perspectives different from her own.
