Reviews of professor Stephen Davids

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Lecturer Davids had a caring approach that was obvious from the start. I asked for assistance to understand if I was on the right track with an assignment and he was immediately responsive and encouraging. It gave me confidence to get through a new subject. The writing topics were relevant, like MMIWG. As a non-Indigenous woman, I was interested.

Very kind and caring professor. Gave me a significant amount of feedback during this brand new online course. He also set weekly small assignments so we had a lot of interaction between students each week, which made it feel like I was part of something (I am a remote student). The text was useful and up to date and the content was practical.

Professor Davids really knew his subject and was able to clearly communicate the salient material over the term. When I ran into some difficulty, I found him easy to approach and very willing to help. I was a remote participant in this online-only course but the way Prof Davids set the work encouraged interactivity with the other students.

Online course. I needed help and got it.

On the whole, you never knew what you were meant to be writing or the mark you'd receive (despite having access to rubrics). We basically read the textbook chapter (as he didn't upload any lectures for you to read) and wrote discussion posts/assignments that had nothing to do with the course (EX: writing a PR campaign for MMIW in Canada).
