Comment:
He lectures, but it's not really boring and he doesn't really care if you're paying attention or not, as long as you're quiet. Write the paper in the format he wants and turn it in online before midnight. Pretty easy class. Doesn't really say why you get some points off the essays, though.

He gets off topic so much and you never understand whats going on. Then at the end of class he'll hit you with "remember your paper is due this sat" and half the class is there confused like "what paper?!!?" Wouldn't know how he grades because i dropped this class.

Professor Schrantz is a great professor. He is an easy grader, but there is some work, especially during the summer semester. Would recommend to anyone talking online English 1302.

Comment:
This is a very goofy and laid back professor, laughs at his own jokes type guy. He doesn't demand much out of his students. He has a weird way of lecturing-quiet, full of pauses and jokes and references to things. We watched a lot of youtube videos and wrote quite a few papers, which he is moderately tough on grading.

Super great guy. Really cares about his students. Lectures are always interesting, fall off topic sometimes but not til lecture is complete. You won't want to miss class, you will have to read, online vocab tests, no tests just papers due every 3-4 weeks.

I took this class online for the summer. Hes a nice guy however, DO NOT take his class online. The material is confusing. His syllabus changes leaving you with no knowledge of what is going on. No extra credit. Also, the professor was absent from his office for a week during the month long class-so communication is spotty.

This professor is by far the easiest person to take an online class with. He is very responsive and grades really good and always provides good feedback.

I had Mr. Scrantz for online ENGL 1301 over the summer. His lessons are very organized, you can complete the assignments ahead of time. He responds fast to emails and is willing to work with you if you're having trouble. Each lesson is typically a 250-300 word response, a couple of papers in between. He gives extended time for essays. Very easy A!

I took professor Schrantz for English 1301 and honestly he's the best professor I've had. He cares about yours grade but make sure you show up to class because there is class assignments that aren't all that difficult. I would definitely take his class again. Yeah there is essays that you have to complete but the topics are amazing.

All essays turned in, none had feedback and were not 100%. I wish I would have had feedback to know what I needed to work on for the next essay to improve.

He's very entertaining, open minded and funny. You really have to listen to actually learn his tips and tricks. Always interacts with students and loves to give feedback. RENT his textbooks or share with someone, he rarely uses it. His grading is pretty easy, very late on posting grades. Talks a lot, rarely uses the internet. Very passionate.

Had him for Brit Lit 1 and 2. A very astute professor who knows how to make the material interesting. Although Dr. S has the tendency to get off topic, his tests are typically straightforward if you do the review. Lets you know the essay questions ahead of time. Very sweet man who is worth getting to know; passionate about the Romantics.

Not for online at least. The class is layed out clear and the stories are ok but he is not responsive and doesnt give much info about why you get the grades you do on your essay.

DO NOT TAKE ONLINE. very unclear instruction. takes days to respond to email. Made decent grades on most papers then received a 50 on a paper and there was no feedback as to why. Doesn't put grades in until the end of the semester.

Great teacher, long lectures that would trail off else where(off topic) often. Lot's of essays, but plenty of time to complete.
