Comment:

Bob often rambles in lectures, but stay alert cause he will occasionally mention something useful for the *take-home final* (Yeah ikr lol). The midterm was super easy too. The only tough part was the film review paper. Good guy, hilarious, would take again, EASY A.

Comment:

As a kid I always wanted to be Indian Jones. Bob Muckle saw that (and corrected me on a few of the movies artifact retrieval methods) and over the many years of my Collage, University and professional life he encouraged, supported and inspired me to never give up. Im now a multiple award winner in the field. FYI , he often references Gerry Larson

Comment:

This is basically a culture class and he doesn't consider his verbal usage at all. Uses the term "white people" too much. He hates when people leave to go to the washroom as if his lectures are even interesting.. Can't teach well. Just go on google. Spare your time.

Great intro class, Bob loves what he talks about and honestly just wants you to get a good grade and pass. No other components to this class other then 2 midterms and a final which he outlines for you. Funny and witty. Only thing I didn't like is that he spends a lot of time in the start of each class talking about things that don't relate

His class was the only one I was excited about week after week. A kind, easy going guy to approach outside of class time as well. I would take more courses with him even though Anthropology is not my focus. Very passionate and knowledgeable about anth.

Comment:

Muckle's lectures are really interesting, and all I had to do during the semester was do 2 multiple choice tests and write an essay where everything you had to do (even what to write for each paragraph) was outlined super clearly for you. Relatively little effort was needed to be put into this class.

Comment:

I found Bob Muckle to be extremely condescending and rude. He encourages you to ask questions and then makes you feel like an idiot for asking anything. He is the worst educator I have ever come across and I hope to never experience something similar again.

Comment:

Probably the best professor I've had to date. He's taught his whole life and it definitely shows. He knows what works and what doesn't and he has fair and reasonable expectations. He's a joy to listen and learn from since he's so engaged, passionate, and wants you to to be interested too. He is funny and extremely engaging. Would take again 10/10.

Favourite prof by far! I think I've taken everyone of his classes. He's really funny and a great lecturer. Show up to class, he goes over everything and is very clear about his expectations. I don't think you'll be disappointed at all. He's the best.

Comment:

Absolutely amazing teacher! i loved him so much, if i wasn't transferring, i would take a course with this teacher every semester. I enjoyed his anthropology class so much, there wasn't a point i wasn't excited to go to class. i chose anthropology as an elective, and i had no idea i would love it so much. My favorite class all year!

Comment:

He knows the material well, and therefore makes the lectures easy to understand. He does get off topic sometimes, or will tell a life story lasting the whole class. Readings are easy, but tests are based on Lectures. Be aware, he will make fun of you if you are a student who asks dumb questions, are sleeps in the class.

he is one of the most easy going prof's. he lets you know what is on the exam and the essay is based on what was learned in class. attendance is one of the most important key aspect to passing his class.

Comment:

Great speaker, makes dull topics interesting. Doesn't like other people's opinions, so just sit and listen. Gives you the exam questions a few weeks ahead so very easy. Must go to class, as exam is based mostly on lecture. Essay is time consuming. No presentations, or participation required. Easiest A I've ever gotten. Requires practically no work.

Mr Muckle is a fair teacher; he expects professionalism and engagement, and is very helpful when needed. As long as you attend classes and read the books when assigned, you will do well in Mr Muckle's classes. But if you're disruptive or disrespectful, watch out.

Comment:

Loves questions to begin class! Read the textbook, articles, attend class and you will do well. Gives direct hints at M/C and gives (3-5) possible essay questions (he will choose two). Essay exams focus on integrating textbook, article, video, and lecture material. One of the most vocal instructors I?ve ever had against academic plagiarism.

Comment:

Funny, friendly, and not overly demanding. He made the class seem harder than it actually was. He gave us detailed outlines of the midterm and final, and he was willing to help with the research paper anytime he could. I highly recommend taking one of his classes.
