Comment:

As a business major in a class of all history majors, Professor Watt still was able to get all of his points across to me and more. The lectures were fantastic and he was an incredible teacher on the subject of the Atomic Bomb. Would recommend his class over and over again. Hands down 10/10.

David Watt is a funny professor and makes learning fun. He even offers surprise cash rewards sometimes if a student answers a question well. Take his class!

Comment:

If you've got a sense of humor, you will love David Watt's class. He is a bit of a weirdo but a genuinely kind guy. Makes an effort to remember your name and your major if you are involved during class. He's very clear about what he's looking for on the tests (in-class essays), so just pay attention and read what you can. Miss this class!

i loved having David for my religion in philadelphia course. his lectures were engaging, interesting and helpful, and he has an amazing sense of humor. His tests are pretty straight forward, he is very clear on what they will be on which is always good. I would definitely consider taking his class! You also don't have to buy books for the course.

If you can't deal with weird I would recommend another section. I really enjoyed this class; I have to admit I don't understand the duck hat thing and I was pretty disappointed when there was no sock puppets at all (another review here got my hopes up) but generally very effective. Also, I learned a LOT from the readings. 1010 would take again

He's without a doubt the best teacher I've had in college so far. The man's clearly brilliant, hilarious, and friendly. He thinks of things in a unique manner and uses a great selection of books in the class. My only regret is having him in my first year of college - I don't think anyone could top him!

Funny guy, easy class, but he's not afraid to throw you out of his class if you are doing something he doesn't like (i.e. texting)

The man is a lunatic, but is very funny. You probably won't learn much about history, but the class is an experience. TA's did most of the work. We only had one test (the final) everything else was papers and attendance, etc.

This guy is a liberal socialist fascist anarchist quaker. However, he is one crazy guy and very entertaining. Can't say I learned a whole lot, but it was fun. Drops the "f bomb" a lot in class.

Selected great texts for the course. Not afraid to deviate from books to discuss "larger picture." Fostered a lot of interest in the class. Very laid back and a great sense of humor.

Comment:

David is great. the not being a good teacher i disagree with. as a colleg student he expects you to read alot and if you do u can learn a great deal from discussion in class. the readings he assigns are great as well, that is where the value is the greatest, not just boring text books but good writi
