Easy online class. There are weekly assignments but they are simple. The material was actually useful information so it's worth it to read the assigned chapters. Would recommend this class to everyone I know.

Online- best class ever. I would do the discussions ahead of time in case you have a tough week when they're due. Discussions every week, 6 projects, 5 quizzes. Easy class. People seem to copy other peoples discussions- so don't post them too early (in my opinion). Definitely recommend for an easy core class.

BET PROFESSOR! Most lenient grader and most helpful. This class was so easy to pass. If you fail, then you are just super lazy. All assignments are on blackboard and he blasts out emails after class to inform us on what he taught because the majority of the class missed a lot of the lectures.

Comment:

This class was sooo easy!! But be warned, the lectures are extremely boring! All we did was write small 1/2 papers each week and simple blackboard open note quizes. You can choose whether to do the final paper in text or powerpoint. He doesnt take attendance and posts everything that the class did on blackboard so u wont worry about missing stuff

Comment:

A terrible professor and its a wonder how he is still there. not a bad guy, just mumbles and stares off in space. cant read a thing on the black board and you basically dont have to be in class because you learn more reading on your own. allows re-dos and there are no papers except the final for american literature.

Very unclear on expectations. Had to ask him for all of my grades along the way. The one time I asked to meet with him to discuss my paper, he said no.

Comment:

At first seems super boring, but he tries to get you to discuss poems, and if the class gets into it and talks this can be a very fun class. ALL you do is talk about poems the entire class; hardly any actual work. Also, he seems to know his**** about poems which is helpful.

Very easy class, he is straightforward and will basically give you the answers to all questions on his exams when he is lecturing on the plays, i thought he was boring but he was a very good teacher when it came to giving you the information!

Comment:

Kinda nice, but can't really get straight answers from him when you ask him questions. Can't get in depth either as far as the 8 or 9 books you read go. The first quiz we were given I should've gotten a C, but got an A due to his mis grading. Ultimately a boring class that's an easy A or B.

Comment:

Boring, yes. Easy, definitely, however the lack of content and challenge left me feeling cheated, annoyed, and clueless in the class. the class is a waste of time- if you want to take that as a good thing, but you still have to read in order to pass his middle school tests.

Comment:

I'm surprised no one from 436 has left comments. Not going to reiterate what everyone else has said... Even if you need the class to graduate take it somewhere else. This man is horrible. I don't even know how he can continue to teach at TU...

Comment:

He didnt seem to know too much about some Literature. Was a nice man. If you can get past the fact that he stares at the ceiling, and does other incredibly strage things with his body while he talks, you should be okay. The tests are soooo easy! So is the final. Sit in the middle, then you can hear.

Comment:

Nice man, still not sure what he was staring at on the celing...but easy class, you won't be able to read anythign that he writes on the board so just dont bother trying. VERY easy test, dont make you write any papers, and really nice person., he will crack some jokes and you will just wonder what?

Comment:

He is very nice but you can't have a convo with him. Can't read handwriting on board. Laughs at himself a lot. Somewhat boring. Read the plays or something, go to class, do the questions and it is easy! Read over notes you take in class and should get A's on the tests!

Easy class but he stars at the ceiling and off into space while he talks. Read the sparknotes and answer the questions and you should be fine. Good luck staying awake though, probably one of the most boring classes

Comment:

I like English so I signed up for this class, but this guy lulls you to sleep. He stares at the wall when he talks. He amuses himself with his jokes. Not always clear when he talks. It is an easy class though. He is a nice guy, though. I'll give him that.

Comment:

If u can stay awake in this class, you must have serious energy. He is borng and looks off into space when hes talking... U dont even have to read the stories just look the summary off line and then you can answer the hw ?s, then he goes over it in class. If you can stay awake its an easy A or B
