Reviews of professor Jamie Knight

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Most disorganized class I have ever taken. During class time, we would work on a group project every day. Professor never really taught us any material, and would expect us to learn everything for the exams based off of the text and mind tap. She lectured once and refused to post any notes on the lecture after complaints that she sped through them.

I really liked Jamie as an instructor. Communication with her felt like just talking to a friend. I found focusing on one chapter per week was so lovely and I learned so much in this course! I was really upset about one grade I received but I think in the end she knew where I was coming from and she still allowed me to do well. She is so great :)

I could go on and on about how frustrating this professor is. No test preparation (except for a 6 question quiz for the first exam). at least 100-150 textbook pages per week. Spends 20 seconds on one slide but in a zombie voice (40 slides per class) Never replies to emails. Its the middle of the semester and theres been 1 participation assignment.

Lectures were a snooze. She read directly from 5-10 boring, imageless slides each class. Remainder of time was spent watching YouTube videos, none of which were tested. There was not an ounce of actual teaching in this class. If you read & understand the textbook and cross-reference with slides, you should do relatively well.

Great professor! I love that she talks about the interesting research that she is conducting. Very engaging, makes class interesting . Highly recommend. Very clear grading criteria. If you want to do well you will.

Jamie expects students to work but if you do you will do very well. She is fair and caring and gives good feedback. One of the most valuable classes I've taken, because of her.

This professor evidently didn't know very much about what she was talking about. She read off the powerpoint like a robot and talked in a quiet monotoned voice. There was no passion. I was never able to stay engaged or keep up as she gave no further explanation about any bullet points she read on the powerpoint.

It's not good. The exams are only 30 mcq, so if you get a few wrong, your grade will tank. Also, we're two-thirds through the semester, and there have been basically no opportunities for grades outside of the midterm exams, even though her syllabus says there will be participation assignments.

Jamie Knight was a nice person but a boring lecturer. Her pre-recorded lectures were extremely fast and it would take double the time of the video to get through all the content. Many assignments were extremely vague and confusing; most students did not know what they were supposed to look like. This was especially true for the final paper.
