Comment:

Such a great teacher. Everyone on here says his accent is hard to understand, but it's honestly not. He's so nice and understanding. He takes roll every class, so show up for easy points. He's a very easy grader when it comes to papers too. Honestly 10/10 would recommend (most of his quizzes are on quizlet too lol you're welcome).

Sweet professor, but didn't learn hardly anything. There's 5 exams, 5 class discussions, a student presentation, a paper, and a group paper. very tough grader on the individual paper. 1 student presentation each class period - all semester. learned more from students than from professor's lectures.... no homework though. sign in sheet everyday

Very easy class because all of the exams are online, only opened my textbook once for a super easy presentation that we did. If you know someone in the class, i recommend sharing the textbook if you want to have it. He loves participation. You have one group project that didn't take much effort. Sign in sheet everyday and group discussions

Comment:

He was so funny! The class was very easy. Assignments were not hard at all. There is one group project which was pretty easy and there was also a paper which was an easy A. Overall, easy A class. He is a little hard to understand at times and he does lecture a lot, but the class is very interesting.

Comment:

This class was easy but two long papers and one is a group project, so beware of slackers. Tests are online so not too bad, and no quizzes in class. There are group discussions so I would make sure you go to class unless you are ok with losing that many points. He can be kind of confusing because of his accent but it was a cool class.

Great professor! He incorporates daily life and his experiences into his lectures which makes the lesson relatable. All exams are online and no class during exam dates. I recommend him!

Comment:

Handojo is the cutest little man. He's extremely nice + very funny, but I did not enjoy him as a professor. I feel like I learned very little from him (learned a lot from just reading the book though). His lectures rarely make sense and the tests have nothing to do with the lectures. He doesn't actually read papers, so make sure styling is perfect.

Comment:

Handojo is nearly impossible to understand, and not just because of his accent. The accent is easy enough to get past after s few classes however, he is completely unclear as to what he expects from assignments and his classes are mainly taught by the students. Every student has to present a chapter of the book. Might as well make this online.

Comment:

I love Handojo, he's hilarious. He's so quirky. But we had to write a paper, which I am usually really good at, and he gave me a C because it wasn't what he was looking for but his instructions are not very well written. I do appreciate that attendance was not mandatory, for once a CBU professor who treats us like adults.

It makes me sad that his rating is so low. He is great! His accent is not difficult to get past. He is HILARIOUS and really invests in the student if you invest in the class. He is a great professor and a great guy. The assignments are incredibly easy and the tests are open book online. It doesn't get easier then that

Class is great if you can get past his accent. Honestly I learned so much from him and would take his class again. I disliked the group projects but liked his style of teaching. There is also one mandatory presentation which isn't as bad as it seems.

Really cool man, but totally confusing. He even admitted he doesn't read your papers all the way! He mostly grades on style and citations. GOOD LUCK!

Overall the class was easy. The test are online and open book. The thing is that they can be time consuming and hard if you did not read the material before. Handojo was really nice and his accent was not that hard to understand.

If you get him for Cultural Anthropology get out of the class as soon as you can. He is hard to understand and not helpfull. The group papers are unfair because one person ends up doing the whole thing.

Comment:

He is an easy teacher. The tests are take home but difficult. The lecture notes he makes you take in class aren't used for anything else. The last day of class he grades the notes and records it on his attendance sheet. He is tried to give me a zero even though i received full points. He said that he didn't have a grade but I have his signature.

He is not a good professor. The notes he makes you take in class have nothing to do with the test. The tests are all open book and online. However, they are extremely hard. The book is needed for the test. Without the book, you're going to fail. This is the worst class I have ever taken. I wouldnt recommend taking his class.

Comment:

I had him for 2 courses - the only 2 I have NOT eared As in. I put 130% effort in my academics. I went to his office to ask for help in raising my grade. He said no, and if he does it for me he does it for everyone else. Another student brought it to my attention that they did the same thing and he gave them an A. He is not an honest professor.
