Comment:

Dave was a great guy. He loved questions and was always happy to answer them. Lots of notetaking but he lectures in a way where it makes notetaking easy. When he's unsure of the answer to a question, he'll admit that he doesn't know but he will also give a very detailed estimate as to what the answer could be, he never just said no and ignored it.

Comment:

One of my favorite teachers ever! His lectures are really good, and he clearly cares a lot. He is really helpful outside of class as well, and answers questions in class. Tests are difficult essay questions, but you can definitely be successful if you pay attention in class. I really enjoyed this class, and plan on taking more classes with him.

Great professor. His lectures were straightforward and easy to understand also his test were easy because he told you what was on the test and he gave you all the information. The class didn't have a lot of homework but he did have a few readings although they weren't hard.

He encouraged me a lot during class lectures and office hours. Going to class and taking all the notes from what he wrote and said are the great ways to prepare for the exam. Working hard and just asking him whenever you need clarification. Highly recommended.

One of the best professors I had this academic school year. His passion for the subject really shows and he puts in a ton of work outside of class to help his students. He made a huge impact on me as a student and through his class I discovered I have a passion for the environment. Never a boring day in his class.

His lectures are amazing! You learn so much everyday so skipping class is NOT a good idea. His lectures are interesting and easy to understand. I honestly looked forward to this class everyday! The class is easy because his exams and quizzes are based off his lectures, but you do need to make an effort to study to do well on them.

Dave is really passionate about history. He encourages questions and answers everything you ask. He keeps the class on schedule in a decent pace. He really makes history interesting, sort of telling a story instead of a lecture. 4 easy quizes, 1 paper and 2 exams. The class is easy and I would recommended taking HIST136 instead.

Great teacher, not a very tough grader. Presents history in an engaging way. he writes on the board, and if you write down all the notes you will get 4.0. several multiple choice quizzes, midterm, a final, and research paper. Always responds to emails and canvas messages. he's also pretty flexible and willing to work with you if something comes up.

Be prepared for all his different plaid button ups every day! Great teacher overall! But damn he makes you read a book and write a 5 page essay on it; but he is sooo helpful if you go to his office hours man. I tried hard enough and got a 3.6!

I love Norberg!, Norberg is the one of the best teachers I've ever had. There are only 3 tests with multiple choice and two short essays which are not difficult if you look over your notes. If you copy down the notes he writes on the white board you are golden for tests. Norberg explains the subject in an interesting and easy to understand manner.

One of the best teachers I have ever had. He is extremely helpful, reasonable in his expectations, and his lecture notes is exactly what is on the test. One drawback is the fact that he grades attendance, but outside of that, take his class!
