Reviews of professor Baruti Kopano

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
The discussion posts aren't bad at all. He grades tougher as the semester goes on. His group work is all or nothing. If a group member doesn't participate...you all take the zero. He doesn't stick to his syllabus or even give clear instructions. He chooses when he likes to enforce his policies for assignments. Enjoyable course, but he's a headache.

One thing to know about Kopano is you can't expect to skate by and expect him to give you a good grade in the end. He expects you to take accountability for yourself as a student and do the work it takes to receive a good grade.  he is a really good professor with a lot of experience. is you need a extension don't wait until the last minute

Hes such an amazing teacher. He will definitely make you work for that grade. He not just handing out As. So much reading, be prepared. Come to class, he loves getting extra credit during class. He also loves participation. The class was pretty interesting, Kopano made it fun. Do not procrastinate you will lose yourself in this class if you do.

Very good class if you would like to read a lot, and work 5x harder than usual. Work onto of work. Very cool, but comes with some anger issues.

He expects students to put in the work and will grade them accordingly. I enjoyed the material he gave out this semester. Just be prepared to read and write. Be ready to work in groups for multiple projects.

MAKE SURE YOU BLOG AND PARTICIPATE IN DISCUSSIONS! Dr. Kopano is a tough grader and doesn't just give out A's. He's very lenient and willing to work with you as long as you contact him beforehand to give him enough time to try and help his students. He doesn't want to see you fail but has no problem giving you an F if he sees fit.

 alright teacher and brings food but his tests are hard unless you reread and he gives you limited time. The test sometimes asks for exact details wouldn't remember. a lot of reading. If you don't work with a partner when you should, you get zero for partner working. plagiarize, he will personally take you to get kicked out. not mean but expectant.
