Reviews of professor John Chiappone

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Easy A class. Only 5 assignments to do all year including the final. Only one paper to write and it covers the 3 small quizzes he gave. Do the discussion boards for free extra credit. No reason to not get an A in this class.

I'm taking Dr. Chiappone for Intro to Ethics. He assigned 3 four question quizzes the first 3 weeks of class then only has one 100 point paper and one 100 point final at the end of the semester. If you get one question wrong then you get almost 10 points off. He seems intelligent, however, he is not good at being a professor. I do not recommend.

Intro to ethics has been the worst course I have taken so far. He was absolutely terrible. I passed with a C+ but I would not recommend him to my worst enemy.

Only 5 assignments the entire semester. The first three quizzes have 5 questions so if you get one wrong your score automatically goes into the 80s. He throws the paper at you with no background or preparation. He grades extremely tough and left very aggressive comments on it. Would overall never recommend this professor to anyone.

This class for me was very hard. Grading is very strict. I ask for help and gives vague answers. Also told me I did a very good job on my final paper but then gives me a c-.

Chiappone only assigned 5 whole assignments the whole semester. He is a terrible hard grader. The work except for the finals the higher points to earn is 34 points. Whereas the paper, and exam are 100. This results in if you do bad on the paper, or on the exam you basically have entered bad territory.

I'm a foreign student, he's the great professor that I have. If you have any questions, he will try his best to help you out. Also, He can stay after class and explain the lectures again. This logic class doesn't need a textbook. He let you retake the test if you're not satisfy your grade! Extra credit!!! Your attendance will be really helpful!!

I'm minoring in philosophy, have gotten A's in my 300 & 400 lvl classes, but I'm about to drop Logic b/c he is such a bad prof. No textbook to fall back on, most of class is personal tangents, he can't answer questions, incredibly disorganized, tests are also a mess (lots of mistakes), says more about what not to do than what to do. Don't take him!

Easiest class I've taken. He gives practice exams so if you pass those then you don't need to take the real exams. His classes are boring but it's worth the easy grade.
