Edward Skornia is a tough grader. He expects a lot from your DQ responses. I like his approach, as it distinguishes fairly clearly those that read the text, and those that didn't. Don't turn in your work a minute late, or he will call it late, and dock you for it. I like this, actually, as you always know he is being fair. He's a good guy and a fair facilitator. So if you are willing to do the work, don't be afraid of his classes. If you want to fake your way through it, he isn't the best facilitator for you.
