Very rarely does anyone earn a 100% on assignments, lots of detail needed to earn a perfect score. Lecture material was easy to understand. Lots of reading in this course.

Great prof! I had a great time in this class, but be ready for assigned reading (he gave us two books to read for the semester). He's super understanding and always willing to help or answer a question. Throughout the entire semester, he only assigns on big paper for 100 points, so this class is easy if you're not a strong writer.

Comment:

Overall, taking a course with Professor Nagle has been a pleasure. He's clearly passionate about what he teaches and is clear when lecturing. He's known for being a tough grader, but only tests on things he's actually taught. As long as you get your work done and try your best, you'll do just fine.

Favorite professor at west shore, do the work and you will get a good grade. Three exams, one project and two books to read. He is very helpful and the material is covered well.

Comment:

Follow his directions EXACTLY. Likes to belittle students, and not in a constructive way. Every question you ask is treated like a "dumb question" by him, but keep asking questions because if you're not clear on something you're probably doing it wrong. Likes to put trick questions on tests. In-seat class is ok but online was the WORST.

Comment:

Mr. Nagle is a great professor, and he really knows his stuff. The work isn't too hard, but he almost never gives full credit to anyone on papers, test, etc. Even thought he tries not to show bias, It's easy to tell he's very Liberal...

Comment:

Member of the Democrat Party. If you are expecting a Government class you're in the wrong place. Nagle spends about half of the semester on Civil Rights requiring reading of such titles as "Coming of Age in Mississippi". While there is nothing wrong with that title, civil rights is another course. If you are a Conservative, avoid like the plague..

This is my second class with the prof, he is great. His classes are super easy. For this one we had three exams, multiple choice and essay, a paper, and you had to write a letter to an elected official. He is a hard grader, but he just wants you to learn his subject. He is absolutely great! Makes the class fun with little stories. Take him!

I consider Prof. Nagle to be a great professor. His class is a little bit challenging, but well worth it. Class and material very well outlined, structured, and clear. Prof. very willing to help and answer questions - he is very nice. I had never cared for history, but his class was interesting, and I definitely learned a lot.

This was my first online class. Even through an online class, you can get his enthusiasm for teaching and history. He is a great, wait, make that an excellent, instructor! But be prepared to work hard. And I hope you can put a couple sentences together, too.

He is very helpful and clear about things. He is right to the point. During lectures he will outline things that are important on tests and anything he talks about will more than likely be on a test. He makes things easy by having a clear study guide.

Mr. Nagle is great. He adds a lot of interesting and little-known information to his lectures. His sense of humor and laid-back lecturing style always has me looking forward to class.
