Reviews of professor Jake Haselswerdt

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
If you want to take this as an "easy" history credit- don't. He's a great prof. but this class is not easy. The inquisitives are worth like 40% which is great, but they don't relate to the tests at all. The lectures are online which is nice but the tests are way harder than they should be.

I usually wait til end of semester b4 I rate profs but w/ it being time for pple to pick classes for next semester and how much I love him I wanted to rate now. Reasons hes amazing: hes noticeably prepared for and gives engaging lectures, gives study guides, homework can redo until u get 100 and that is 40% of total grade, & presents current events

His lectures were fast paced & hard to follow, & extremely vague. He doesn't allow you to use your laptop to take notes in class, so it is hard to get down everything he is saying. Even though he uploads the presentations on canvas, the tests are much harder & more specific than the notes. Only good thing is the inquizitive which is easy points.

Pretty interesting lectures. A lot of online assignments but you can keep taking them until you get a 100% which his nice. My only complaint is that the test questions can seem pretty specific compared to what we learned in class. However, if you go to class and do the study guides, it shouldn't be TOO hard.

Very arrogant and lectures at you. It was a big class, so it's hard to make it intimate but he totally did not try. Exams are also difficult/confusing so read the options carefully!

One of the best professors at Mizzou! Dr. Haselswerdt is a great instructor and cares about each of his students. He is available both during and outside of his office hours. You can also ask questions during class and he has no problems explaining the topic until you understand. I can't wait to take more classes with Dr. Haselswerdt!

He taught the 4th unit of this online course and was very knowledgeable about the material. His powerpoint slides were clear and concise, and the grading criteria was clear as well. STEM major here, so I won't be taking any more poli sci classes, but not bad for a Gen Ed class. Would definitely recommend taking this class as a hybrid course.

Dr. H is quite arrogant and lectures at you, instead of insuring you comprehend the material. He does not try to connect with students individually. His tests are also difficult and often do not include anything addressed in the readings or lectures.
