Comment:

Dont take this class if u have a tendency to be late, he will stop class to stare at u. His lectures are straight from the book thru powerpoint. tough grader, but he will understand absences if u communicate. Has given us the answers to quizzes before. USE HIS STUDY GUIDES THEY ARE EXACTLY LIKE THE EXAMS!!!!

Comment:

I seen many bad rates but took a chance with him and I regret it. He should not be able to teach an online class because he changes the dates all the time. The due dates in the grade book doesn't correspond with the open and close date to the actual assignment. Take another online professor if you can.

Comment:

There was a whole issue at the bookstore with the professor claiming he ordered the 9th edition textbook instead of the 8th funny thing was that on canvas it still said the 8th edition and the professor never informed us about it. Moving on to the test, seriously who gives a 110 question test in 95 minutes? You don't even have a chance to think.

Comment:

Unfortunately, Prof. D is not computer literate, and a little disorganized, so looking for the assignments in CANVAS requires patience. Be sure to read the chapters BEFORE you get to class - pop quizzes happen. He doesn't go over tests afterwards, so you won't know why you got things wrong. I found his class frustrating, despite liking the subject

I slept through lectures and read the book and passed. he will have conversations during class that have nothing to do with material, however; requires that you attend. his test questions are usually trick questions so memorize the textbook.

Comment:

He originally presented a syllabus that had dates and references from at least a year old. Wrong days and still telling us to access D2L, a site not used for 2 semesters. He changed test and exam dates more than twice at the last second. Lets put it this way, there was only 14 people left in class halfway through. Awful educator. Among the dregs

Tedla is an alright professor. You gotta ask him a lot of questions about your assignments because he doesn't always make it clear exactly how or what he wants.

Comment:

His in person class is heavily weighted on whether or not you read the textbook. All tests and exams are based entirely on the reading, not his lectures. So just read and study the textbook and you'll be fine. He is strict on attendance, which I dont understand since you dont really learn anything you cant learn in the book. 3 exams, no final exam

Comment:

The worst online professor I've ever take. She is very tough grader. She is rude. she is very lazy. She graded our papers on the last day of the class. Nobody knew what their grade were until we heard back from the school in eserviese. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS IF YOU WANT TO PASS THE CLASS WITH A FAIR GRADE.

Comment:

Easy class to pass. I'm honestly not a try hard student but I just studied the study guides and managed to get an A; they were long but definitely worth it. Lectures most of class, shows videos, class discussions where you answer questions given to your group the class before. Tests were basically questions from study guides and his lectures.

He is an alright professor. He does care about your learning. He is very strict on attendance. His map tests are hard. He is a lenient grader and gives good feedback. He cares about good classroom participation and allows students to have their own opinion, but he is very vocal(which I like). Show up and do your work and you will be fine.

Comment:

Even though I ended the semester with an A, i honestly do not know how. He doesnt input any grades at all until the final grade. We used the textbook about once or twice the whole semester. He can be very arrogant and rude. Dont be late or absent! Class was easy but not fun nor interesting most people dropped class. Did not learn much.

Comment:

Avoid at all costs. His attendance policy is extreme, miss class more than twice and he will drop you and he also counts tardies as absences. He almost never passes back work and you never really know where you stand in the class until the end. He's rude and gives attitude when you ask him questions. He is very funny though I'll give him that.

Comment:

Easy class. Mainly talked about current issues and there were about 5 tests overall with no homework other than 2-3 one page responses. Study guides ranged from 100-300 questions but tests were 100 questions. The questions for tests were taken directly off study guides. If you participate and are informed on todays topics he will like you.

I think that professor Tedla is a very knowledgable person, but he definitely needs to be more organized, I never knew where I stood throughout the semester.

Comment:

Immediately after doing a tough but reasonable group assignment, his final exam was basically everything you did for your group work but for every other country. Only this time all by yourself rather than the work being divided. Im an A/B student, but struggled to keep up with his confusing and overbearing assignments. Hes also strict about time.
