Reviews of professor Christopher Manno

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Manno is  great prof. My only complaint is that he doesn't write a ton on the board, so it got hard sometimes to take notes. But otherwise his lectures are interesting, and he's very friendly and willing to help with any assignments he gives. In the class I took with him, we didn't really have any tests.

The only in class conversations that I can remember having during this course were about the daily discussion questions rather than the actual course material. That being said, Manno was an attentive listener that respectfully pushed students towards more sound ideas. He could've organized the class better and been more available outside of class.

Not a difficult class if you don't mind turning in 4 assignments by Sunday every week. Posts 2 hour-long lectures each week. You actually have to watch some of them b/c he asks lecture questions every week. No exams, but there's a midterm and final paper. Grades kinda harsh on midterm/final paper/news reflections. Books have free PDFs available.

He is really kind and nice to talk to. His class consists mostly of reading some pages and having group discussions in class that are actually interesting, he is also crazy smart. There are some 5 question quizzes on the reading but these are rare and really easy. Attendance is very important but he allows 2 absences no questions asked. Essays r ez

Professor Manno is a good professor and his online lectures do help clear things up if you are not understanding what you are reading in the textbook. Although he is a good professor, he gives A TON of homework and this online course is pretty fast pace, which is especially tough when the chapters you have to read are long and heavy with material.

Prof. Manno shows true passion when you watch his lectures. His lectures are long but they help you understand the material. I really enjoyed taking his class.

Prof Manno is absolutely amazing. Theres 1-3 assignments per week, lectures posted twice a week and midterm/final papers. The weekly assignments are literally failproof. The midterm/final papers are harshly graded but you can email him drafts and he will review them for you and let you know how to fix them. Overall hes funny and truly loves his job

Professor Manno is very passionate about philosophy. Unfortunately that means he can get ahead of himself during lectures and become a bit tangential which can be difficult to follow. Nonetheless, the class is very interesting and discussions are engaging.

Professor Manno is an overall understandable teacher, he is fair when it comes to quizzes and readings. However, because there are no exams in the class I believe he is a harsh essay grader, as there are two main papers throughout the semester. He also does not take participation lightly!!! Must engage heavily.
