Reviews of professor Jeff Shaw

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Jeff Shaw was probably the best professor to start not only my first year off but also start off my mornings. He is very enthusiastic about journalism and will tell some pretty funny stories. He wants everyone in his class to not only pass but to get involved with journalism in one way or another. One thing though is the constant reading of news.

Such a good professor. Relatable and funny, makes topics interesting. Pretty easy class, but still requires some effort. I really appreciated his lectures.

Jeff is tough but worth it. No attendance policy but idk how you'd keep up with this class if you dont go. Good lecture notes that he shares but also a lot of extra stuff in his lectures and he's funny, so it's not boring. You have to do online discussion posts and a group project, and he does a lot of quizzes on the news, so you have to keep up.

Jeff is a very kind and fair teacher. If you put the work in and show up to class, you will get a good grade. He is funny and makes references to pop culture to keep the class engaged. Didn't have class Mondays - online discussion instead. Loved this class and this professor!

Love this man. His lectures are long and he loves to ramble but he's incredibly passionate about the subject which makes up for it. He's a very fair grader and offers loads of advice on writing assignments. Would absolutely take another one of his courses.

I really enjoyed taking Jeff's class. He is more than qualified to teach it, his lectures are in depth and well thought out. He is available during office hours and always open to appointments. I easily succeeded in his class, the only thing I would advise is to study the news for the news quizzes. A fantastic professor and an amazing class!

Jeff is the best professor I've had! I've learned so much from him and his teaching style is very clear and straight-forward. He is inspiring, and always comes to class with high spirits and a sense of humor. To succeed in his class all you need to do is show up and pay attention -- and it's completely worth because you genuinely learn a lot.

AMAZING! Super easy to stay engaged with his content, keeps class fun and interesting, and gives really amazing feedback. Teaches Jiu-jitsu on the side btw. Really cool guy and great at explaining the concepts of newswriting. Be aware that there is no late work accepted because the class emulates a newsroom (where late work isn't a thing).
