Comment:

Mr. Martin does not try to fail you. It isn't super easy to get an A in his class, but it is very easy to pass. He will work with students who need help and is very understanding. I wouldn't say he's super entertaining by any stretch of the imagination but he's a good guy who teaches a good class. As long as you do your homework, you'll be fine.

The entire class is based around the professor lecturing and then you have homework due Sunday night of each week. There is one LONG research paper at the end but it assigned in the beginning. Show up, pay attention, and participate if you can, and do the weekly homework.

Comment:

Really didnt like this guy, & Im not alone in that, as friends of mine agree w/ me on that. Gets off topic all the time, show/talks about irrelevant stuff in class, & you dont learn anything. Ive always done great in eco/business classes, but had to drop his class because I simply couldnt take it anymore. Seems like an ass too. Its terrible

Boring teacher, always went off topic and never really left the class knowing what I even learned (if i even learned anything). All 4 tests are online, 40 questions, and you get 2 chances to take it. Pretty easy class.

Comment:

Terrible instructor. Getting an A is pretty easy, but don't expect to learn much in his class other than what colored pen to use to draw curves. His class is absolutely useless if you plan on majoring in a related field.

He knows what he's talking about. He'll work with you, but he doesn't mind making you look like an idiot. Research at the end. About four tests, and it's pretty easy. He sure is a nazi about those colored pens though...

Comment:

The biggest ass you will meet. Actually told the class he didn't care if we passed or not. Sounds like someone who should be teaching in the public school system. It's a shame he's the only one teaching economics here. Doesn't give a damn about you or anything for that matter.

Easy class. Just take notes and pay attention. Nice guy. Tests are all short discussion questions, but he tells you exactly what's gonna be on there, and you just memorize them.

This is a harley guy! So unless you like that type of sense of humor, and very down to earth guy, don't take his class. Pretty easy to get along with so far....will update about him later.
