Took this online. Course is broken into 4 units. Each unit consists of 2 discussions, 1-2 lab/quizzes, and an exam. Exam questions come directly from the Thinkwell exercises - have a copy of them handy. Only 1 exam is proctored. Easy filler class.

He tells you every time - DRILL THE THINKWELL EXERCISES!!! Just do the review of the thinkwell exercises and upload them to quizlet (or search). It is all broken down into 4 Units. Each unit is a test & 2 discussions. Discussions were interesting; just get those out of the way in the beginning of each unit. Only 1 proctored test.

Comment:

Mr. Armstrong is a great professor and very laid back. Often he is funny and cracking jokes with the class. He references his personal life in situations when lecturing a lot. This helps me retain the information better because I can directly correlate it into real life. He gives plenty of lab time and test breakdowns. I would recommend him.

Comment:

Mr. Armstrong is the most human teacher of all time. He genuinely cares personally about every student. We had a hurricane situation and he altered the class to make sure we could handle both. He personally messages every student to congratulate or inspire them after every unit. He is beyond kind/caring/helpful. He wants you to do well.

Greatest teacher ever! Subject is tough but he explains it clearly. You will still be required to studied and earn that A but he tells you exactly what you need to know to get the A. He cares about your success. Hint:voice record the test overview, this really helps.

This class was great to take as a filler online. All work was online videos followed by quizes. Print off the notes and quizes and study those for your tests and you have an A all the way.

Comment:

Mr. Armstrong is by far the best teacher at Eastern Florida. His class is difficult, but that is expected for this type of class. So long as you study, you will do great on the tests. He gives you everything you need for the tests, and even does a verbal review after each section (recording that was very helpful). I loved him!

I loved Mr. Armstrong. He is the most helpful and caring teacher that I've ever had. He will spend as much time as you need to help you understand the material and get the grade. He's a class act and a genuine person. He's not bent on being the hardest teacher, he just wants to see you succeed. I had a great time and learned a lot!

This is a really intense and time consuming class. Professor Armstrong is the best teacher I have ever had. He is passionate about teaching everything his students need to know to be successful in this class. With every good grade i received I could tell that he was equally as happy to see me succeed. Difficult class but he is the man for the job

Lectures were concise and clear. As with any class, what you put into it is what you get out of it, however I felt like he was more interested in actual teaching then many instructors I have had in the past. He was organized, helpful and available. I would strongly recommend this class to anyone needing AP2.

Mr. Armstrong was an amazing teacher. He gives you your assignments and lets you work on them at your own pace, which is extremely helpful when you have a lot going on. His practice tests are the key to acing your actual tests and he always gives you feedback which is a great confidence booster.

I had Mr. Armstrong for Biology online. His instructions were clear and concise so I always knew what was expected. Difficult material for me, but still passed. He responded quickly to emails and truly wanted us to pass. Discussion questions were the best. Great teacher.

Amazing professor! So helpful and he truly cares about his students. I have never had a professor that really truly cared the way that he does. He is funny and is good at explaining. The course is not easy but he makes it as easy as he can by going over exam questions before the exam so you know what to expect. Definitely recommended!!!

Loved this class. Prof Armstrong was great. I love the discussion questions the most as they make you think. He was very knowledgeable and always got back to you real quick. It is a quite a bit of work but it was a great class and you get to work at your own pace, and all the tests questions come from the study tests.

I took this class as a hybrid and really enjoyed it. Mr. Armstrong makes sure you understand what you will be tested on. His lectures are very clear and informative. I would highly recommend him to any student going through A&P.
