Comment:

Mainly tests contribute to your grade. Few assignments. Few EC opportunities. Lectures by showing videos, but you have to attend class because one day he might decide to lecture something that will be on a test. You have to personally call him to check your grade. (He may not answer of get back to you). Unstructured. You will have to teach yourself

Comment:

The tests are hard, but sitting through class is a breeze. All we really ever did is watch movies and he writes notes on the board. I didn't get good grades on the tests but he literally give you enough extra credit to pass the class alone! I wish I could take his class for every subject!

Comment:

Kreowski is a lawyer and an elected official who tries to get you to think and discuss, not just memorize. He wants you to not only know the Constitution, but understand it as well. He can be a little pompous at times, but he doesn't mean anything by it. He is passionate about the subject and wants you to be involved. I would recommend him.

Mr.Kreowski has a unique way of making me learn and actually care about political science. i also learned a bunch about corporations and i highly recommend his class for a little history on american politics.

Comment:

Mr. Kreowski is an attorney who has great passion for the Constitution and how/why it pertains to law which is the basis of Political Science. Prior to this class my knowledge of politics was what I heard on CNN. After at tending his class, I came away with a fundamental knowledge of the history, and ostensibly, the modern tenants of politics.

Comment:

Dr. Kreowski is incredibly clear with what he expects from you. Before each test he covers EVERYTHING that is on the test. He likes to poke fun at his students, but it's always lighthearted. I only used the text book once to look up a court case which I could've Googled.

Bad teacher, the tests have nothing to do with lecture. The tests are what we need to learn, but we never learn the material. It is good he gives extra credit, because i would be surprised if anyone passed his class without the extra credit. He only cares about his attorney job, he shouldnt be a teacher.

Super easy class -just show up--Although you never know what grade your getting,and he doesnt explain how to do things which I found frustrating. I did enjoy the class and Mr Kreowski was nice.

Interesting guy. The class is pretty good. There are two tests, the first one is super hard but the second is easy. He provides tons of extra credit by watching movies so there is no reason you cant get an A in the class.

Anyone who doesn't do well in this class deserves exactly what they get. This guy wants you to do well, just show up to class. Plus, he's definitely not boring as some of the other comments indicated. Easily one of the best at cuesta.

This guy is great. Yes, he's pompous, but that makes him entertaining. If you do what he suggests, it's hard not to do well in this class.

One of the best teachers that I have had, especially in political science. The way that he teaches keeps me super interested in everything that he is saying. Definately my favorite teacher this semester.

Doesn't cover info for tests at all. Goes off on too many tangents. Makes his students feel like they are complete idiots. He wants everyone to know that he is a lawyer... who cares??

Comment:

At the beginning of this class I was going to drop it, but I stuck with it and I am so glad I did. He is a wonderful teacher that makes you want to learn the about subjects that you were never interested in before. His method of teaching is a little odd at first but I learned a lot from him.

Comment:

I never cracked the book and got an A. Still didn't care much for the class because I walked away without any knowledge of basic gov't. He was very unstructured, should not be teaching an intro to gov't class. Would be better suited to an advanced class.

Comment:

Although he is differant from most teachers he is very good at what he does. You will without a doubt leave his class with information you did not know and that is important. As for his tests they mainly have to do with the text but he gives you a run down on exactly what the test will be on. I g
