Reviews of professor Joseph Stemmle

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
He was a great/easy professor. His lectures are straight to the point and relatively interesting. As long as you show up to class, he will give you full participation and he will tell you a couple questions and answers on the exams at the end of every class as a reward for being there and staying until the end.

PARTICIPATE IN HIS LECTURES!! Say a current event or pitch into the discussion somehow (appropriately ofc). He gives easy assignments and posts all his lecture material so if you just pay attention and do your work it's good. He gives extra credit a lot through participation so go to class! He is nice about past assignments too so just email him.

Professor Stemmle is a very engaging teacher. Spent a lot of time talking about the COVID crisis and broke down a lot of the current events which was actually helpful. Always available for office hours and answering questions about your assignments. He usually telegraphs what will be on the tests by the way he talks about it in lecture.

Professor Stemmle is pretty knowledgeable and brings real life examples to class. I didn't do well on the first exam but had plenty other chances (quizzes, tests, and extra credit) to bring my grade up. He does a review before every quiz and test so pay attention to those lectures. The group project is tough so make sure you have a good group.

Great teacher, sarcastic, knows his stuff, goes over things over and over - if you show up & pay attention you will hear everything he tests on several times. He gives lots of 2nd chances and extra credit on quizzes. He has a structured class and follows the syllabus closely. Extra credit presentations and pop quizzes added points to overall grade
