Reviews of professor Carolee Hurtado

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
15 modules, mostly discussion questions and replying to others every week, quizzes are there but not often, can retake them. If an assignment is done incorrect she will give you a chance to turn in again with not late punishment. Her writing assignments are easy and mostly opinionated with some info added from the readings. TAKE HER!

Cant stand her. Adds assignments without warning. Ridiculous expectations. Excessive amount of announcements. Teaches once and thinks you know the whole process. Horrible

Professor Hurtado is absolutely one of the best professors I have ever had. She is so intentional with her assignments, and shows incredible passion in her field. I look forward to taking additional courses from her in the future. If you have the opportunity to take a class from her don't hesitate, you will be glad you did.

She is very accessible outside of class and quickly responds to any emails she gets. It's pretty easy to set up meetings with her which is awesome. However, she won't give you meaningful feedback but will grade you very harshly. Assignments don't have clear guidelines and she never provides examples.

Genuinely my favorite professor I have had at CI, fun and kind. She makes you think, really challenges a lot of long-held beliefs, yet encourages students to come to our own conclusions. She also focuses on us learning from each other, so there are a lot of facilitated discussions that really influenced my opinions. Hw benefits your understanding!

Math education is evolving and Professor Hurtado will help you navigate these changes and apply them in your classroom. Ask her quesitons outside of class about math instruction or teaching in general because she is a great resource. I am fortunate to have had her in my credential program and look forward to attending her professiona development.

This class feels like a waste of time. She gives so much busy work and grades HARD. She lets you resubmit for a higher grade but when you resubmit she changes your grade by .5 everytime. Then you need to go back and forth with her resubmitting until she is happy. Everyone agrees his class should be online.
