Reviews of professor Amy Glaser

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
If you are looking to complete a GEP with no interest in pursing a philosophy degree, this is not worth the stress or grade at all! It's disorganized and impossible to study effectively for quizzes because they're all so different. Participation is worth 15% of final grade, and it's nearly impossible to talk if you aren't passionate about topics.

PHI 325 I really don't know why her rating is so low. The class was relatively easy, compared to my other classes. The grading criteria was pretty clear. Some of her assignments and topics discussed are confusing, but I think they're meant to be and she grades easy so it doesn't matter for your grade as long as you understand the overall point.

Surprised she has bad reviews. I thought the course was organized very well. Clear expectations for assignments, clear about class policies and due dates. I'm not interested in philosophy but I still found this class interesting. Quizzes were straightforward if you paid attention. Hated the group project but it's not her fault my group was lazy

Professor Glaser's class content was interesting although her lectures were sometimes confusing and disorganized. Most of your grade depends on quizzes that are taken online and not too difficult. Reading the textbook definitely helps, but it is not required. Attendance and participation are not required, but I would highly recommend both.

Amy is a kind, approachable professor and was very accommodating with Covid, offering in-person, online, and asynchronous options for class. Quizzes can be challenging and account for a large portion of the final grade. The class was also entirely based on the assigned readings. It's not a bad class overall, but there could be some improvements.

Take this class if you enjoy lecture and want to work hard on your own along with the awesome lectures.

Professor Glaser is a very nice and caring professor. There are 9 online quizzes that are pretty easy if you read the material. You have a blog group; everyone needs to participate for you to get a good grade. Professor Glaser is a good professor, but she teaches material that is just hard to comprehend because of the subject.

Took them for PRT 203 and the class was relatively easy. There are a lot of readings and lectures to watch with weekly quizzes. Sometimes they are not written well and don't give a clear idea of the correct answer. Another thing to keep in mind is that they go over some controversial topics. Watch out if you don't agree with some of their claims.

Amy was very accommodating for myself and a class mate I knew. Her expectations for the major assignments (a paper and group video project) were very clear. Sent her paper for review got an A on it with all of her recs. If you knew the material the tests were fairly easy. Not assignment heavy and very group discussion based.
