Not bad at all. The class can get a bit boring as he speaks 2 hours straight in a very monotone voice, but he's very intelligent and gets you very prepared for tests, doesn't give homework besides reading textbook chapters. I would definitely recommend him

Comment:

Really intelligent, knows the material like the back of his hand. His lectures are long and can be boring at times. He gives reviews for each test and the last test is a take home test. No HW, never opened the textbook once. As long as you do your work, you will do well.

Comment:

Soo, I took this professor based on his rating... I do agree he is eeeeeextremely boring and high-tempered. However, he grades based on 2 exams +1 final which is take home. He gives a study guide 2 weeks prior the exam and if you study, you will get an easy A. No quiz, no homework. Never used a book but had to buy one for $80 :/

Easy A. No homework, gives a mid term and a final. He gave review sheets and the final was take home. Super easy A but the actual class is boring but worth it for not doing any work

Comment:

Extremely boring class. I bought the books for $90 and didn't open them once. No hw though so that's a plus, and one take home exam. He told us what to study for the exams, so it's fairly easy. Get some coffee though, because he talks for 2 hours straight in a very monotonous tone.

Very intelligent man. No homework, only three tests (two of them are take homes...easy A) Very boring class and lecture but you literally will not have to do any hard work at all in the class. Just do well on the tests and you're good to go.

Comment:

No homework assignments, no quizzes, and no midterm. There are 3 exams including the final exam which is take home. He may seem intimidating at first, but he's actually a really nice guy. He is always willing to answer questions and he knows the material inside and out. Read the books and listen and you'll definitely get an A.

Professor Ronalds is the man! He could just go on for hours and hours during his lecture spewing out facts and facts like he was reading from a book in front of him. He is very intelligent and has a sense of humor. You will truly appreciate his class and miss it when the semester is over. TAKE HIS CLASS! You wont regret!

He was an excellent professor. He is extremely intelligent which gave this course its flavor. I enjoyed his lectures and I learned alot. He had his own brand of humor and I appreciated that. He was helpful and answered a student's question and was very detailed. I can appreciate a professor who embraces his teachings and would recommend him

Comment:

Ronalds is a really awesome guy. His classes are lectures with little participation, but he really knows his stuff. He's not a hard grader and his tests aren't difficult- just pay attention to the lectures and take notes from the board. He's often funny as well and rarely took attendance. Easiest professor for CORE.

Comment:

While Dr. Peters is a monotoned lecturer, he does however articulate the subject in a precise, structured & intellectually-developed lesson plan. He doesn't care about absence/tardiness, his test are based off review sheets & the book, but you can easily learn everything you need from his lecture & the lecture hall. He is an extremely fair grader.

He is a terrific professor. The class requires many essay tests with alot of information to cover. It is not easy. He is excellent in class with expert lectures, group discussions, readings and video presentations. He is professional and approachable. I learned a lot
