I absolutely loved him! He's funny and has an old sense of humor. Loves what he does and he shows up to your field class periodically just to say hi. I would definitely take him again.

Comment:

Dr. Blackburn is so funny, half of the class takes place in the field but when you are in the classroom he is always joking around. But he also teachs you alot of real world lessons and gives you valuable infromation about being a teacher and everything it envolves. Class is super easy and field is a lot of fun, take him!

Mr. Blackburn is the nicest professor I've had yet. Assignments not too difficult, not strict on deadlines, and is helpful(when you can get a hold of him). Very nice man! I would take him again in a second!

Super funny, really easy to get off task with crazy stories. Pretty basic class, assignments are easy. You'll have to teach a lesson plan, but he's an easy grader.

Blackburn is the best! I had him at 930 and he was able to keep me interested without falling asleep. He has a great sense of humor and really knows the subject of teaching. He is really helpful and has great stories to tell.

I absolutely loved Professor Blackburn! He really knows his stuff (he was a school superintendent at one point, I believe). He has an extremely dry sense of humor and makes the few classes you actually have with him really great!

Best teacher I have had here. I have him for an 8am but he keeps everyone awake which is not easy. He is really funny and makes sure everyone understands what is going on. I hope to have a class with him again bc the classtime flys by!!
