Reviews of professor Jesse Malmed

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
(I don't go to UIC and I didn't take Art190, but there's no option for UWM students to leave reviews, so) I took Film 118 with Jesse at the University of WI Milwaukee. I loved the class & thought Jesse was a great teacher. He's very knowledgeable & showed great films in class. Gave helpful feedback on projects, he's very approachable & funny.

Took this class as a gen-ed art requirement.. do not recommend! The class consisted of having to do a piece of work/a project every week & then present it in front of the class for a critique. Jesse was very unorganized & did not ever give any clear instructions on what he wanted for the assignments. He didn't post grades either.

This professor did not grade any of our assignments until the latest possible date nearly a month after classes ended. He was not clear on assignments and seemed like he was always making stuff up as he went along. He did not follow the syllabus as he is not good at being timely. He is a fun person but terrible at letting you know your grade.

He does not believe in grades, but he does believe in voluble, extended digressions. He goes wherever without really filtering his artiness for his audience, which is good and bad: he's a fountain of information and ideas, but he becomes a bit too bohemian and eclectic at times. He doesn't use Canvas and will probably just give you an A.

If I could give a zero I would. There is no option to write a review for his other job at Milwaukee, so here I am. I thought he was funny but that is the only thing he got going for him. I never received one grade in canvas. Nothing. He gave vague feedback but never told us how we could improve. The class work was random and unorganized.
