Comment:

Rob is such an easy teacher, he literally doesn't give a flying duck. bi-weekly assignments, easy criterium, don't forget a work cited. Tests confusing but thanks to COVID-19 online resources are a +. Fill out the study guides if you can find them and read the book, but not necessary.

Comment:

Easy class, but learned lots. There are 3 exams, which follow the study guide. The assignments kind of suck, they primarily consist of writing 1 page essays- mind you it is an online soci class. If you manage to fall below an "A" he offers extra credit. I'm sure he's a cool guy, but I had literally zero interaction with him because I took it online

Dr. Reynolds is a great lecturer. I enjoyed every day in class. He made statistics accessible to the math-phobic.

Comment:

Focuses on coursework, but also places a heavy emphasis on "thinking like a sociologist" and applying the material learned in real world situations. Very knowledgeable about the subject material, and genuinely cares about how students do in his class.

Took for upper division credit and I really enjoyed this class/professor. Just 3 exams throughout the whole class and plenty of extra credit opportunities. There are some assignments but they're not too bad, plus they provide a buffer for your grade. Highly recommend.

There were 10 assignments, 2 tests and 1 final. He explains everything you need to know and he's very knowledgeable. He is also willing to work with you outside of class. Must attend class to understand material. Also the books in this course help a lot with the material.

Amazing professor. Only had 3 tests, all of which are exactly like the study guides given. There are some in class assignments and online assignments, but overall are very easy. Attendance is mandatory, and he never/rarely uses power points. He gives an opportunity for a little extra credit.

Comment:

I thought stats would be horrible, but Reynolds made the subject very accessible! He explains not only how to do the math, but the concept that makes stats meaningful and memorable. His text book choices were great! My friend took the same class at the U, and I ended up teaching her many things her teacher didn't explain nearly as well as Reynolds.

Professor Reynolds is a good guy and I would take him again. His tests are EXACTLY like the reviews which is very nice. He's pretty easy going but at times I would get bored in his class. There were days where I felt like I would learn in his class but most days no one payed attention. Do your best to read.

Comment:

I really was interested in a Sociology of Globalization and was excited to take this class. Didn't get a lot out of it. Neither text was really necessary at the end of the day. Definitely a smart guy, super nice and funny but not his field of expertise, nor did he seem that interested. Was pretty disorganized. Easiest essay grader I have ever had.

Comment:

Rob is great! I'm not a huge fan of sociology and online felt like the way to go with it and I'm glad I did. You have 1 weekly assignment 3 exams in the semester (noncumulative). The assignments you can get by with minimal reading, but have to search more for the exams. He gives awesome study guides for the exams, you know exactly whats on the test

Absolutely take Dr. Reynold's for social statistics! You won't need the textbooks as long as you attend class regularly and ask questions. He goes over everything you need to know. If you ever fall behind or need help, he is always more than happy to meet with you! He also brings in bagels whenever there is a test!

Comment:

Took the online 1010 course. Major mistake; there was absolutely no structure to the course, more than usual for an online course. He's a nice guy, but don't take the online course! Assignments had nothing to do with the huge exams he would randomly post throughout the semester. Very few assignments to counteract mistakes on the heavy exams. Avoid!

Comment:

Rob is a nice guy and pretty good at keeping class somewhat interesting. However, I didn't feel like he went over what was on the test at all. If you want to do good make sure you are reading. Being in class matters with him, because most of the assignments are in class.

Professor Reynolds is a great guy! Really cares about his students and will take the time to talk to you outside of class about any questions you may have. Most of the homework in this class is reading, so if you don't do the reading you probably won't do good on the tests. But if you do the reading the class isn't hard. Overall super nice guy.

His lectures didn't really teach me anything. I wish he would teach in an outlined manner to make sure material is taught and understood. By far my worst class this semester. He's a pretty decent person.
