Comment:

Such a good class to take online because you learn how to work through canvas. He takes it slow the first couple of weeks while everyone catches up. He does comment on assignments and sends group emails to clarify any questions. You do get "blog style" assignments and quizzes. The final was an essay which was confusing but you can still pass.

Comment:

idk how the heck I got an A bcuz I did very bad on the final project but somehow it worked out. Maybe he changed my grade or something and for that imma give him a 10/10. The discussions and quizzes are hecka easy but the final paper is hard make sure not to procrastinate and try your very best. Overall the class was easy and I love this guy

I really enjoyed this class! He was very clear about his expectations and was there to help whenever we needed. This was an online class and he would still respond to emails on the weekends. The only tough part was the final paper but even me being the procrastinator that I am and literally writing the whole thing in one day, I still got an A.

Comment:

Overall, the class was not that hard. All the quizzes are easy because most of the answers are online if you copy and paste them into google. Also, the discussions are super easy. The final was the only hard part of the class. It was a five page essay and he graded very hard. I even sent him my essay and asked him to look at it and he said no.

Comment:

I took an online summer class. The class wasn't very hard overall there were weekly discussions( mostly just one) and like 1-3 short quizzes. He was vague about what exactly he wanted for the final and the other very short paper for the class, but he answered emails quickly and was a fair grader. You can find the book for $20 if you look around.

Very good teacher. I like that he gives comments on your work instead of just giving out a grade. Very encouraging and knowledgeable in his area of study. Highly recommended!

So much work for a 1 unit class!Took course online. Tests are straight from the book but you have 30 mins to look up 10 test questions so not too bad. Big paper due at the end with a weekly quiz and discussion board.
