Shannon is the most opinionated teacher of all time. I am not doing bad in his class at all and will have an A average as a final grade so don't think I'm writing this review because I'm pissed over a low grade.
Basically, whatever Shannon thinks goes. We have a great textbook for this class and he is constantly telling us how he disagrees with it. The tests will have questions over textbook definitions and Shannon's own personal definitions of the same term. Bullshit. He grades papers in a way that even if you have answered the question correctly, if he doesn't like the way you wrote it, you are getting a bad grade. Students who he thought did a good job on essays or papers he will ask to read an excerpt to the class and every time these people's essays are just bullshit involving Shannon and the crap he's said in class. If you do take this class, to get a good grade I highly recommend kissing his ass in every paper. For those of you who simply can't stand to do this, like myself, don't take Shannon as a teacher.
Some days in class, we won't even go over our material, he will just stand at the front of the room and talk about his opinions of things. This class has been a complete waste of time for me, I pay my own tuition and I can't believe I paid for this. Student evaluations never matter because Shannon is the head of the marketing department.
All those evaluation papers go through him anyway. I watched as almost everyone in my class wrote negative comments on the back of his evaluation even though we all knew it wouldn't matter.
All in all, and sorry for such a long review, Shannon is a nice guy but a bad teacher because he can't stop his own opinions from interfering with the way he teaches and grades. This could be a very cool class and I could have gotten a lot out of it. Honestly, taking it will only make you pissed off, even if you make a good grade like me because you will realize that you have completely wasted your time for an entire semester.
If you are taking this class right now, kiss his ass and you will make a good grade, but have fun living with yourself while doing it.
