Reviews of professor Maria Escallón

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Very engaging and wonderful lectures . Encourages participation and tries to be available as much as possible outside of class

She is an inspiring lecturer and fun to listen to. She strengthens the course with films and guest speakers which are also very engaging. She is one of my favorite professors at UO. The course is relatively easy except the exams are difficult and there's one final project. She does offer extra credit opportunities. You have to buy the textbook.

Professor Escallón is super passionate about teaching and learning anthropology. The grading scale is out of 100 points so nothing is weighted, you either love that or hate that. The course is very organized and she gives thoughtful lectures and invites relevant guest speakers. Overall, her classes are definitely worth taking for any requirements.

SHEs an adorable professor and I like her a lot I just hated the class and how it was taught. There was too many movies and guest speakers that had nothing to do with the course material and we barely took any notes. If you didnt read the book you were screwed for the weekly quizzes. Class attendance barely mattered .

Ms. Escallon is a queen! She is so sweet and kind and cares so much about this world and our environment as people. You only have one discussion post per week and a super easy and light project that takes up the whole term. Overall, she is so amazing and makes this class super easy as an async class - highly recommend this class and her!

One of my favorite professors... she really cares about every one of her students and will help them succeed. Some classmates did not seem as respectful of her time and how much she tries to shape the class around student interests, which is a shame because I learned more in one term of her class than I have in multiple terms. I would recommend.

I can really tell she was passionate about what she taught. However, for me, the lengthy lectures and all the readings resulted in me getting really bored and I didn't really pay attention most of the time. Quizzes are very easy since they are open notes and fieldwork assignments are straightforward.

She is so nice and charismatic. I really enjoyed her lectures, although tests and quizzes were heavily based on textbook readings. She is very engaging and wants the best for her students. Just make sure to read the articles and textbook chapters she assigns and you will be good!
