You grade yourself. A paper was assigned but it's not hard; you grade that too. You draw photos and write short responses every week. Doesn't matter when you turn in your work as long as you turn them in. Hardly showed up to class, but did all my work. Very flexible and understanding professor. Oh and there's one group presentation. Super easy.

Comment:

Professor Kimble is very laid back and the class was easy. No tests or finals just weekly journalsmind maps. He doesn't take attendance but your attendance is the journal you turn in. Not sure if he even keeps track bc you grade yourself in the end. The papers and group presentation is really easy as well. Don't buy the book.

Professor Kimble is extremely nice! Doesn't believe in tests. There is a group project with presentation, weekly assignments, and 2 papers on interviews. Easy class you grade yourself.

Comment:

Mr. Kimble is a humble and nice man. Going to class was a joy because he focused on learning the material rather than focusing on learning a topic to get tested on the material. Which is the reason why I loved his class!! He doesn't believe in test or exams, and he says that a lot, he rather wants you to know the material to learn than stress on.

Mr. Kimble is an amazing man. Extremely helpful, caring, loving and full of knowledge. Class is never boring. Story time, movies, speakers, and fun activities. You will leave that class with a different perspective of what it is to be disabled and so much more than you ever thought you would from a psychology class. Highly recommended!! Love him!

This course is designed differently, Professor Kimble allows you to teach yourself, he's a very caring teacher. And a very sweet man; I really enjoyed him, his stories and his experiences. You learn from a different perspective, and often times leave class with your heart touched. Definitely makes you think differently; wonderful!!

Comment:

This is the first class I have taken which takes an interest in teaching students a different part of education which is something you have to learn from personal experience and it is to be understanding and feel compassion for others, also how to behave with other people who are discriminated against. I loved it. Just keep with with hw and class.

Comment:

Super easy class & interesting but it can get boring because the professor takes more than 30 mins just to say maybe 15 sentences. Class goes by very slow because everything is very unorganized and he just goes with anything on his mind. It is a interesting class but very, very EASY & unorganized. I wouldn't recommend but he is a nice professor.

Comment:

I cannot stress enough how easy this class is. You grade yourself with a grade contract that you turn in at the end of the semester. He says he keeps track of your homework but he doesn't. I missed 6 weeks of class in a row, came on the day to turn in the contract and never went back and got an A. Just do the two papers and your good.

Great teacher and one of the greatest I've had here. You choose your own grade with a grade contract but be warned he keeps track of your assignments so don't BS him. A lot of assignments but projects are in groups and no tests and easy final. Easy A but just listen for directions and do assignments and attend classes and you will pass.

This is one of the best courses I've taken so far at CSUF. I'm glad I had the opportunity of meeting an interesting professor. "Dont Sweat The SMall Stuff" is what he recommends, it's worth reading.

This was an awesome class. One of the best classes I have ever had. Yes it is true, you grade yourself. There are weekly assignments and a group project but other than that it is a pretty chill class. He is truly passionate for this subject and I have learned more in his class without tests and papers than I have in other classes. Take it!!!
