Definitely a cool guy. Not too hard on grading (provided your writing isn't terrible). He's just like you or me, truly a good guy.

He shouldn't be teaching online classes. Not sure how he is in traditional classroom, but online is unorganized and he is slow to respond.

Comment:

On line class is only for the truly independent. Lots of reading 2 5-7 page essays, 2 short essays, Mid-term matching, Final multiple choice and short essay. Biggest problem is feedback, don't know where you stand in the class until final grades posted in Webadvisor. He responded to my emails, and was helpful. It Just took forever to get a grade.

Took class online. 3 big essays. NEVER IS AVAILABLE FOR HELP. Takes forever to grade anything. BUT, if you write well on your own then you will be fine.

Comment:

DO NOT HAVE HIM AS A PROFESSOR!! he does not respond to your emails, does not state things clearly in assignments. he grades you based off beliefs and religion. or at least he did in our class. he may be easy but hes NOT worth it. he doesn't give clear instructions on the final exam and when you email him about it, hell wait a week to respond.

I just finished up an on-line class with Mr. Barbour. He was very helpful and fair. He gave excellent direction for resources to help find what you needed for essays. I would recommend this teacher.

Comment:

I've taken two online classes with this teacher. In both classes, I did my work and submitted it on time for 2 A grades. My only problem is he doesn't grade quickly enough so you do not know where you stand in the class until the end of the semester.

Mr. Barbour's class is very easy if you do your work. He's definitely hot, so that can distract you, but if you act like you're interested in the class, you'll do fine.

In my online class, Mr. Barbour was not good at communicating back to the students very well, but if you did the work, it seemed easy to get a good grade.

Took him online. Grades easily but takes awhile to do so. He also piled a lot of work on in the last 2 weeks of the semester.

Comment:

Online teacher. This man did not grade any of our papers, he gave them back with grades and no explanation. I emailed him to ask him questions a few times and he only reasponded to a couple of my emails. AND he turned in our final grades, but only gave us back 2 of our 5 graded assignments, so you dont know why you got the grade that you did.

Pretty cool teacher. Have him for an online class. He grades very(!) easily, but tends to pile on the majority of the work in the last few weeks of the semester. Overall he's great, I'd take him again in a heartbeat.

Comment:

I have him for an online class. He grades easily and doesn't give many comments. He makes a lot of discussion boards but I think he just gives you credit if you try to answer the question. He doesn't assign as much as other teachers do. He was a little slow on assigning so we didn't get to all the assignments.

Comment:

He is probably one of the most laid back instructors there is out there. He is very friendly, easy on grading, and he will probably not show up to class about a third of the time because he's a party boy who likes to spend his time at the beach. Anyways, easy A+ if you do your part.
