Comment:

He's an easy professor but just really annoying. HE WILL KEEP YOU UNTIL THE VERY LAST MINUTE, NIGHT CLASS PEOPLE. Attendance is worth 800 points per class while journals and quizzes are only worth 200. Super nice guy but still frustrating.

Comment:

If you go to class you will make an A. It's really that simple. The worst part is that it's a long class and you will be in there until the very end. He's a really nice professor and will help you out with whatever you need. His lessons are really fun and insightful. You'll enjoy this class especially if you're an Education major!

He will straight up tell you if you come to class, you get an A. Just go. It's pretty fun, he does tons of hands-on activities. He WILL keep you there the entire time every week but other than that, he's sweet and helpful and you really can't fail.

Comment:

The first thing this professor announced to our class at the beginning of the semester was: everyone recieves an A as long as you don't miss more than 2 classes and you submit all assignments. I think that sums it up. Class can be somewhat boring just because it is so long on Monday nights, but if you bring a snack you can get through it!

Comment:

This was the longest class ever! It was fun at first, but then we had to teach lessons to our class and it got boring. He will talk till the very end and use every second...he'll talk about the most random things and it will have nothing to do with the class. Be prepared to sit there for the whole time. He will find something to talk about.

Comment:

I never enjoyed science - until I took this class. I looked forward to it all week long. We made homemade ice cream, melted crayons, used spray paint, had water games, and all kinds of other fun things. I learned more about science in the real world in his class than I did all other 15 years of school. He genuinely cares about his students,too.

What can you say? Awesome class! He is fun and I have actually learned things I will take with me to my own classroom. In fact, I am student teaching and am planning to use some of his ideas!

Comment:

I learned so much from Ben Roy! He teaches through interaction, and I am using many of his ideas as science teacher now. Grades weren't that important, which was fine because you couldn't help but be intrigued by what he was doing.
