Comment:

I took this class online and it was super easy. The only reason I made a B is because I got lazy and waited until the last minute to do assignments. Open book quizzes for every chapter. 4 test which are easy to pass as long as you read the chapters. Very easy for an online class. Not too much work.

Comment:

I took this course online and it was extremely easy. There are about 16 chapters with an open book quiz on each of those chapters. 4 unit tests that are 50questions in 50 minutes. As long as you read your textbook your golden. Very easy weekly assignments with each chapter as well. Easy A but not good with email responses

Comment:

I could have made a B. I took this course online and enjoyed it I loved it more than Psychology. The quizzes were open book and test were pretty easy, but timed. College will train you to become an adult and some students like I didn't know the test were available on the due date. The key is always ask questions. I would recommend Professor Reed.

Comment:

Defiantly not the best professor. I took his online class. He posts EVERYTHING the first day and from there he never posts any reminders about work or tests. The instructions on the work are hard to understand, also, he takes forever to reply to e-mails. For me it normal took him a week to respond. Do not take. Really. Find another teacher.

Worst teacher I have ever had. I took his class online. He never responded to emails, wasn't clear on any assignments and posted bogus websites for us to write papers about (literally the last one he posted was in Swedish). I will never take a class from him again.

crazy, funny, wierd, awesome. class time is mostly discussion (fun) and notes (i never took a single note and i got an A). homework is easy if you have the book, tests are cake if you have the homework. don't bother with the reviews, just study the homework. don't bother trying to email him, if he answers it will be short. pretty easy, safe A or B.

I took his online summer course. We had 16 open book quizzes (20 questions no time limit) and 3 exams (50 min/50questions). The questions were confusing, but you could find them in the book if you searched long enough. I should have gotten a B by 2 points, but he bumped me up to an A!

Comment:

This teacher is AMAZING!!!!!! He relates his lectures to real life. Fairly fun discussion style classes. All of the test questions are either from notes, review or come directly from the multiple choice questions on the quizzes. There is no reason you should make an A++ in his class.

Comment:

Do not take in summer online. Only 3 test and chapter quizzes with no help and no review. 1.5 month to complete 18 chapters. He does not understand distance learning system, and he is a part time professor. I had to retake and made a B online but regular semester. DO NOT TAKE ONLINE SUMMER!!! OK for regular semester class.

Interesting lectures, relates everything to real life examples. Fairly fun discussion style classes. Gives take home quizzes that are sometimes a little tricky. He claims the tests are hard, but all of the test questions are either on the review or come directly from the multiple choice questions on the quizzes.

Awesome instructor. Gives the reviews so you can answer the questions as you read. Tests could be taken at the testing center as well as on line.

Comment:

This online class is great. Consist of 4 different units, 4 quizes in each unit, straight out of the textbook. Test are taken in the Testing Center on campus. No assignments or papers, just quizes. He curves the test grades. He is very good about responding to emails. Not a hard class. Its actually kind of interesting. I would recommend him online

Comment:

This class was so hard for me. Mr. Reed was not willing to work with me on learning at all. When I asked him to help me understand the material he told me to study with smarter people. Hardley anything from is review was on the test. I would only take this teacher if there were no other choice.

Comment:

This was an easy class! Tests come from the same questions as his take home assignments. Funny guy, enjoyable class with the right class mates. He's very conservative and still shows respect for his liberal students. An easy class to take, his lectures aren't even necessary to pay attention to.
