Comment:
Excellent professor. I learned a lot in his course and I'd recommend him to others easily. He really knows his stuff. His instructions were always clear and his grading was fair. He's a stickler for following directions and submitting assignments on time, which I appreciate. If he deducts points, he always explains why. Superb textbooks, too.

This Prof is no nonsense! Don't expect extra credit or do-overs cause there are non. Just do the work and read the chapters. You'd do well to know that from the start. I took this class online and I also do bad with online classes as is. I missed one discussion and lost a letter grade.

Comment:
I have this teacher for 2 classes this semester. Both are online classes. I am mostly an A student. I have only gotten 1 or 2 B's in my life. I may get C's.... enough said? He is a no exceptions kind of person. If you want him to listen, get real. He doesn't think anything you have to say is important. I can't get 2 C's.... I'll have to retake one

Comment:
He requires a lot of reading. He occasionally gives quizes. He had three exams during the semester along with a final paper. Not an easy class, but if you are willing to put very little time in you can pass easily. He is mono-tone and boring so try to stay awake.

Comment:
Dr. Baumgardner had the potential to be nice. The final was open-book, because we all hated one of the 3 books he assigned for the class. Only his opinions are correct, and he really likes to argue. He does not create an environment where open discussion is welcome (unless you are restating his opinion). He was really mono-toned and boring also.

He is very smart helpful and knows what he is talking about. If you participate having some idea of what you are talking about he'll like you. if you are a talker he likes everybody involved so dont do it all the time. Its a farely easy class if you put some effort into it.

Come to class, do the work, and you will probably make an A--or a B at the very least. He is a bit boring, but pretty nice.

Dr. B is fun and has a great sense of humor. I really enjoyed the discussions we had in class and connected with him as a person.

There are people on her who perceive a good teacher to be one who doesn't assign work and lets them get away with everything. Grow up! I took him for ENG 457, worked my butt off, and got an A. He does help you if you ask for help.

Comment:
Monotone... it's a dreadfully boring class. He's very easy if you read the book and not listen to what he's saying in class... if you could even stay awake for that. However, once her has his mind set that you are some particular way, there's not changing it. Not really all that helpful.

Dr. Baumgardner is a strict old fashioned professor. He expects you come to class and shut up. If you're a talker then don't take his class or limit yourself to only answering one question per day.

Dr. Baumgardner is a great teacher. The textbooks used in this course are a little difficult to understand. However, if you ask him, he will help. It is not an easy class, but you'll be fine as long as you complete each assignment.

The class is easy, but I feel that it is a waste of my time because we get into arguments in class that go nowhere.

He is pretty hard to follow. i would never miss a class though. if you do , then you will be more confused than before. he is very intelligent so he can seem a bit intimidating.

I think Baumgardner is cool. Yes, you have to read the text (like, duh!), and he does go off on tangents, but it is all relative to the topic. I had him for linguistics, and he made the subject fun and easy.

He makes fun of students and then makes them feel like they know nothing. I just don't get why he wants to make things not understandable. He needs to get a life and help students.
