Reviews of professor Miroslav Shapovalov

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This review is actually for POS4023, Professor Shapovalov will push you to learn about the topic, you have to be involved and invested to enjoy this class. Quite a few written assignments, and many court cases to read. This is a class for those interested in social issues/pre-law track. Read each module, calendar doesn't always match due dates.

Young, knowledgeable, and supportive. If you care, which will be easy because he offers so many great informational materials that keep you engaged, you will pass. He is a guy that cares about getting the job done. If you want to learn what a good teacher is, get this guy.

DON'T TAKE THIS PROFESSOR!! I put more than the necessary amount of effort needed to pass a course but this class was impossible. Responds to emails w/attitude, exams go over things not even discussed within current modules, assignments graded out of five (one point off  already at a B), and his rubrics are not clear. Horrible horrible experience.

I loved this class. It was engaging and informative. Be prepared to actually retain something youve learned in a class. The class discussions are helpful, as you need class participation points. There is a lot of reading, but I disagree with the bad reviews from this semester. Overall, great professor and entertaining class

The class is not an easy A, reading the textbook, assigned articles, and powerpoints will help you understand the material better for quizzes, assignments, and discussion posts. Professor Shapovalov is very helpful and caring with any questions, has very clear rubrics, and makes the material easier to understand with his lectures.

Review is for CPO 4023. It was a harder online class but I am very glad to have taken it. Prof made the class very interesting and the readings were great, although I preferred the court cases and scientific studies over the textbook. As long as you stay on top of things and put in the work you will get a good grade.

Not the greatest nor the worst. He is not clear on what he wants in an assignment. He has a bad attitude when asking him a a question. Make sure to document your participation points and take a picture of it before you turn it in for your records. He does lose track.

This class is more important today than ever. Professor cares deeply about the subject and his students. He is young and gives great feedback. You will be required to read articles, court cases and books but it will be worth it. I do not regret taking this course, not the easiest but not the hardest, great experience.
