Maria Karmiris

Do not take this professor.

If you ever get this professor, drop the course. Rude feedback and an insanely tough grader

Even if you put in your best work, I do not think this professor would be satisfied. She is an insanely hard marker, and I am not sure if her feedback is intentionally rude, but it comes off as rude. I would never take her unless you want your GPA to go down by a lot!

I will not take any course with her again.

People are being a little harsh. I agree I found the professor to be slightly backhanded or rude through online communication, and her grading is difficult, BUT not unfair. Was I surprised by how much work I had to put into this asynchronous course? Yes. Is it a 900 level course though? Also yes. Put the work in and you'll be fine.

This prof marks very poorly for discussion posts, even though there isn't any strict rubric. I find that a lot of her feedback is very negative and slightly rude. I wish I had dropped this course sooner.

This professor marks very poorly for participation (discussion posts) even though there isn't much of a strict rubric. you can't really make any small mistakes because marks will drop significantly. i find that her feedback can sometimes be very mean

Regret not dropping out when I had the chance

Maria is a very confusing professor. She is late to every single class, refuses to admit when she is wrong, and you can tell by the lectures that she doesn't actually know what she is talking about and is just reading off of the slides. Her assignment feedback is unhelpful and unspecific, and her grading is extremely harsh.

I had Maria last semester and I honestly enjoyed her. She is definitely a hard marker and comes off as passive aggressive which I guess people didn't really like. Overall lectures were not really mandatory unless we had the reflection which was easy but still marked very hard. Midterm and final were really easy as well.
