Reviews of professor Laura Kraftowitz

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I took this class in fall of 2019, but remembered how fun it was when I came across a couple older assignments. I remembered how Professor K made writing fun and allowed me to be creative. She is very kind and inspirational to me. I've since graduated but I will remember her because most professors make writing technical /boring. I recommend her!!!

I LOVE Laura. Many people might say she's disorganized but she's working on bettering her curriculum. She GENUINELY CARES. The class is non-traditional: blog posts, visual art, op-eds, podcasts. Only one research paper. Just do all of your work and ask questions. Don't skip class. She encourages everyone to speak their mind.

Professor Kraftowitz is very passionate about writing, and hearing your ideas. You will do a lot of things in groups. Dont buy the textbook she dont use it. Grading scale is clear but she is a tough grader (only for your good though). Dont miss class a lot, you wont pass. She wants you to participate a lot, Class is discussion heavy.

I thought this was going to be a really dull class full of papers. I actually enjoyed doing the one research paper, but Laura is really into making sure we can express ourselves in any setting, so I got to do a podcast and an art project, too.

Amazing professor. I hated writing in high school and thought I was terrible at it. Laura helped me believe in myself. Lots of feedback and group discussions, and really sweet. I wish I could take her again.

(Pre-Covid) She wasnt what I expected as a professor, but she was pretty nice. I thought some of the assignments were a little odd, but it beats written millions of essays. Grading wasnt always clear , but she allows you to fix assignments.

Quirky prof. Thought it was gonna be lots of papers, instead we did "podcast" and "art". Definitely enthusiastic about her curiculum. Doesn't do normal grading, which makes it easy to get a B. if you want an A you definitly have to go to class.
