Comment:
His class is unlike any you've taken, hes the most funny-boring teacher there is. His class is very boring but he LOVES to joke with students, at times you wonder what the heck hes talking about but its pretty funny, he knows his stuff but his style is unlike any teacher you've had. 2 tests, 4 essays on each but grades pretty easy

No textbook. You do have a course packet but he never seems to follow it. Must pay attention during class and take lots of notes to study from. Tests aren't too bad, only like 5 multiple choice and the rest are essay or problems.

Comment:
Avoid taking him at all costs...his class is extremely boring. He has a terrible monotone voice and will put you to sleep. Makes students feel dumb for not knowing the answers to things - you're left not knowing what will be on the test. Only good thing is you don't use a textbook, he has class notes you get to print out.

Comment:
This class sucked, Spencer does not explain the material well at all. Got to the final and there was a problem that we had never even discussed in class of how to do it. Also the essays are real difficult. He is a funny guy, and will def. make you laugh with how he acts. However, I would recommend taking someone else.

hard class. i dont think he is a bad teacher i think the class is not easy to fully understand. If i had to take it again i would pry take it with him. I didnt do well the whole class but i still passed. its bc of his grading curve, he doesnt do letter grades til the end which helps people in the long run

Not a bad teacher. Really knows what he is talking about, fairly boring thou. Tests are confusing, but easy enough. No book, just $4 test packet.

Comment:
2 exams during summer class, consist of multiple choices, problem solving, and essays. Problem solving and essays are difficult and you cannot figure out what is his expectation. Especially, he does help you to understand the problem solving/essay. He just expects you to figure out by yourself.Class are interesting and understandable but exams are

Class is pretty entertaining, but can be boring. 1 mid-term and final. Group cases are pretty easy too. Study for the two tests and you'll do fine. Overall, I learned a lot and would take agian.

It is easy to get a B, not easy to get an A. Even if you study a lot, it's almost impossible to do well on the essay questions cause you don't know what he's looking for. Trys to make the class interesting.

Tough class, VERY BROAD essay tests, questions that you look at & wonder what he wants. Be prepared to take a TON of notes in class, some group work, he gives the group a case &you have to give recommendations, he seems pretty willing to help if you need it.

Uses a lot of Deere and Airforce examples, you think he still works there. Makes class humorous. Talks fasts and doesn't usually repeat himself. Essay tests
