Reviews of professor Nathan Wright

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
He doesn't have a clear grading criteria. In discussion boards you are to make an initial post and 2 replies. He says the initial post is to be 150-200 words long. Even meeting that criteria and going into depth, he would still dock me 10/30 points because the posts "needed to be expanded on". Expect 1 sentence prompts for your two page + papers.

Content was very interesting, and spanned across many different topics. You need to do the readings in order to do well on discussions and tests and really grasp the content. The discussions will make you think, but were always interesting. Tests were not super hard. Had 4 labs (online) throughout the semester which did take a lot of time.

Nathan communicates well through announcements and pre-made lectures! He will always help you when needed. I rarely needed help b/c the assignments were easy to follow along. Uses Packback and Achieve.

I really really enjoyed Professor Wright's class. It was my favorite of the semester. He was really understanding of circumstances and if you communicate with him he's willing to work with you. He did Packback assignments every week which were painless and really interesting. A lot of reading in this class, but the textbook is actually engaging.

This class is mainly just quizzes and tests but they are all given using textbook sources that you can refer back to. There are a few Google Earth quizzes that I had trouble with, however, I found this to be a very easy course to complete online. He uses Packback on non-exam weeks but those are very easy to complete.

This class is easy. Some students gave him a hard time because of late policy/work. Apparently people are taking advantage of him, that he now requires proof of why you didn't complete the work. I believe you can complete the work with the week (7 days) he gives. I complete it in a day that's how easy it is.

This class was difficult. If you do not like reading, don't take this course. Also, he gives a lot of homework that makes you read a lot and you have to come up with long-winded answers to long-winded prompts that are useless and dumb. the packbacks are confusing as well. the tests and quizzes are easy, it just takes alot of your time and energy, ,

Nathan wright is a good teacher, I took his online class global environments. The problem isn't him, it's how he organizes his course, every week you had respond to 3 long winded questions from a very long chapter of a geography book (One chapter was prob like 100 pages) If you don't like reading do not take this classIt'salso too tech complicated.
