Reviews of professor Emanuel Jannasch

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Utterly unorganized, passive-aggressive, patronizing, and expected us to tell him to post the basic assignment descriptions. None of us know what was marked and for how much because he made up assignments that were completely outside the outline. There were no rubrics. We got no grades back and still haven't three weeks after the semester ended.

Nice man, but what a mess. Lectures were all over the place. There was a textbook, but no reading list. Group assign'ts every week worth 5% - learned nothing except how to put in minimal effort without compromising our grades (total waste of time). No marks or feedback for 10 weeks. We didn't even get our fall grades back until Jan 22. Yikes!

This is a master's level course, which means that 50% of the work needs to be individual. The entire course was group work. The course had no structure. The whole premise of the class is to show up with some sort of model and talk about it for three hours. There wasn't a single lecture even after we requested some.

I think he's a great teacher, but his teaching style is definitely looser/abstract/big picture. Would probably struggle with him if you like things more black and white. He really cares a lot about his students and goes out of his way to give out lengthy feedback weekly. Most of the assignments are just quick exercises that take a couple hours.
