Reviews of professor Shane Jackson

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Gives three assignments. First 2 take less than 10 minutes to complete and the 3rd is a "group" project but is a headache if more than one person works on it. He gives a study guide for the 4 exams but they are poorly formatted, same with the exams. It feels as if UCD is a side gig and he's more invested in his classes at Metro

He knows a lot about the field and is fun. Beware he calls people out for answers to get you to know, but it helps in the long run for tests. Study guides are hit or miss. You'll pick up more about the tests when asks questions or reviews.

I highly recommend him, I came in with the mindset that I won't do well in this course because it is content heavy and I don't have an ISMG background. However, he's a very caring professor (there to help and helps you for the future). 4 exams but you get to drop 1. 3 super easy assignments (1 is a group project). Would take again!

Very professional. He want that student success. Provide clear and full guidance how to prepare to test. Helpful with extra information and works.

Doesnt really teach. Hes a solid guy, but all your learning will be from Youtube. Study guides are 20+ pages, and only some of it is on the test, which is annoying. A lot of the test is either you know it, or you dont. You dont need to show up to class at all and you can still pass. Also, dont buy the textbook. We never used it at all

He's got passion for this field, but doesn't seem like he applies that in class. The 3 assignments do not teach you anything, you just follow steps without explanations. Felt miserable sitting in class. You are better off not showing up and only show up for review day. Tests are genereated off Quizlet and his study guide are a copy paste nightmare.

Great professor. I've had him for three classes through the program and am now in the final upper divisional that he teaches. Very understanding but expects respect in return for it. You should be fine so long as you read the material and turn in every assignment on time. He is easy to reach outside of class and gives great advice.

Gives a study guide for each test and there's no surprises on tests. His lectures don't really seem to have any structure and he veers off topic a lot. We looked up salaries on Indeed often lol. Overall, you can tell he has good intentions and cares about students learning but he needs some focus to his class structure.

At the beginning of the semester, he was doing good can't complain but later in the semester, it went downhill. I was dealing with him talking about different things that may be or not relate to the lecture. He does help you out a bit but not much. It's very hard to catch up. He did give us help with trying to study for the test. Gotta study hard!
