Reviews of professor Shawn Graves

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
This class was relatively easy. I took this online and basically had to read the provided material and write a discussion post about it. Sometimes the material was a lot to read, but you don't always have to read every detail. There were also some open-note exams (like everything was available to help you). Nice man, nice class, I got an A

Very easy course.Just had to do 3 discussion posts a week(no classmate replies) and a test every 3 weeks or so, which is all true and false-you can use your notes. Not a tough grader at all, just read the post and respond with a little bit of effort and you'll get full credit. The posts can be a little lengthy to read at times.

Graves is a fun Professor who takes his interest in Philosophy seriously. It's all done in fun and there are plenty jokes in class. He's easy to get along with and allows for class discussions and questions all the time. Lectures almost all class, but interactive for sure.

Amazing class and professor. The class was not very difficult, but gets you thinking. As long as you do the work you'll do great. He's very helpful and understanding.

I took a level 100 class, so in further courses, he may be more difficult. However, this was one of the easiest and most enjoyable classes I had. We did a discussion post and then came to class and discussed the topic in more depth. If you have any issues with turning things in or being unavailable for class he is very understanding. Great overall.

Absolutely amazing professor, was very understanding when I had to miss class and truly wants to see you succeed in the class. A great opportunity to work on critical thinking skills if you put thought behind your work. Online discussion posts and in class discussions.

Dr. Graves is one of the best professors I've had here. He is inclusive, thoughtful, and for the most part leaves his own beliefs out of his teaching. As an atheist who took Philosophy of Religion, I felt that my perspectives were welcomed, and he fosters a safe classroom environment for diverse students, which is critical at a religious school.

I think Dr. Graves is an alright professor but he takes forever to grade things. He has open note exams which is nice but if you don't understand the material, don't expect to do well. I took this class online and it was a little harder to understand the material but overall isn't wasn't too bad. I wish he would provide lecture recordings though.

Be ready to read a lot. There are three discussion boards a week for 10 points each. As the semester goes on, there are more things you actually have to read and videos to watch to be able to contribute to the discussion. If you do the discussions, you'll be the points. Exams are open note and multiple choice. Pretty easy, but time-consuming.
