Comment:
I took this class online and havent even finished it yet but feel the need to complain. He has been so slow on grading that I have no idea what I'm making in this class and it ends next week. "Dont start your second essay until I give feedback on the first" and I STILL HAVE NO FEEDBACK AND AM STARTING MY THIRD ESSAY. No grading rubric either (-:

Great class! Highly recommend! Great story teller, interesting & not terribly impossible to do well in if you work hard- not an "easy A." Worth the effort.

This class was extremely hard for me. First, the instructor was AMAZING. He was caring, informative, and entertaining. He even attended SI and held review sessions before test. That said, I failed the class. I made a 50 on the first test, a 70 on the second test, and failed the final. Tests are ALL essay.

Comment:
This was the worst class ive ever taken. me and all my friends in this class struggled greatly, after going to all SI's and barely making a 50 on the first test. I dropped. I had never spent so much time preparing for a test. People I know who are still in there wish they had dropped it because there are not a lot of tests. do not take.

I took Dr. Barringer for SFA 101 honors section. If you have a chance to take any course with him I would highly recommend taking it, or at least seek him out and meet him, he is "one of those people you should know." Having someone who truly cares about my success and future will benefit me through college and beyond. Great professor!

He is an amazing professor. He really makes history interesting. You can tell he really cares about what he is teaching and his students. He was a very tough grader and I have never had to work harder for a B, but you learn so much! If you ask for help, he is more than willing to help! He is really funny too. Tests are pretty hard.

You must read your textbook and attend SI if you expect to do well in this course. Make sure you participate, because he's very friendly if he gets the opportunity to interact with you. If you ask for it, he is always willing to help you.If he sees you trying, he may have mercy on you on quizzes. The class challenging but he makes it interesting.

I graduated from SFA over 3 years ago but this professor still has a profound presence in my life. Not only did I learn history, I learned a lot about life in general. He is one of those teachers that you never forget and always want to thank. If you have the chance, do yourself a favor and take a class with Dr. Barringer. It's worth it!

I do not like history....especially Texas history, until I took Dr. Barringer's class online. Im surprised that I have learned as much as I have. He is very motivated to help all of his students. I would recommend taking him, especially for his online courses.

Good guy, fun lectures. But you will read a lot, and you will write a lot. So if you're not fluent in both of those skills, I wouldn't recommend his classes. The exams are a bit off from the notes and book. I think he's good for history majors, not so good for non-history majors.
