Reviews of professor James Haakenson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Very caring professor who will take the time to help you if needed which is important when doing online classes like me. He sends out announcements at the beginning of every week to let you know what is due, and provides study guides to help with quizzes. He grades very fair and I wish he taught A&P 2

 A&P is already one of those hefty classes. This class consists of tests, quizzes, homework, and online labs. Homework is long but easy, quizzes are every week and open note, labs are easy, tests are proctored. Solid professor, but if you lack time, wait it out cause there is so much material to learn. Wish I would have taken it face to face.

Professor Haakenson is super encouraging and kind, the only downgrade is he is slow at responding. Sometimes will do a zoom review for the test. If you make a study group/find friends in the class (this will help you so much!), and study your quizzes it should be an easy A.

Professor Haakenson was an amazing professor. He is clear about his grading criteria. Make sure to complete the modules and you will pass the class. Exams are proctored, if you know the material you will pass the class! Very easy class.

Prof. Haakenson was great! He usually only had a quick 10 question quiz (which was not proctored and had 3 attempts each) and a discussion post each week. The only two "big" assignments were the midterm and final (which were proctored, but super easy if you studied). Overall, very easy class with a great professor!

Professor Haakenson is amazing. He emails the class every week reminding us what is due and this is very helpful. He wants to see his students succeed. The MyLab assignments were useful. Lots of discussions and quizzes that are easy if you study for them. Midterm and final are proctored. Definitely take this professor if you have the opportunity!

Anatomy and Physiology can be a little intimidating, but Dr. Haakenson made the class as simple as possible. I took his class online, the tests and quizzes were taken through a secured lock down browser. He grades extremely fair and is quick to get back to you when you reach out. He truly cares about his students. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!!!!

The material is plopped in front of you and you teach yourself. Uses McGraw Hill Connect unfortunately. Canvas material is outdated and some of the youtube videos are no longer available but haven't been replaced or removed. Lots of reading, Connect won't let you review tests after taking them so no way to study wrong answers. Uses Proctorio.

Maybe he is a great teacher but his online class was super hard to me. In general I would never take a hard science class online.
