Comment:

He honestly is not the best at teaching. He goes a little slow, but that is better than going too fast. He is very nice, likable, and understanding. He only talks about the concept and never went over a single example. His exams are easy, especially compared to other professors I've heard. If you want an easier time in physics, take Haeri.

Lectures were best if you already read the textbook. If you stay on top of it, you will succeed. He is very understanding to students and rounds grades.

Make sure you get publisher's resources! Prof. Haeri made it sound like it was optional in the syllabus but I had the most difficult time understanding concepts without the MindTap to go with it. Because of this disadvantage he was very helpful and replied quickly to email. He even put a study guide together just for me. BUY MINDTAP ACCESS!

This class was so amazing im sad that he doesn't teach more classes. The observational astronomy class was super easy. The structure of the class from 7-10:50 P.M was basically an hour or two of lecture, then break, then lab. Dr. Haeri is so nice and really works with you. The labs are so easy and where most of your points come from. Amazing prof!

Astronomy 20 online- Fairly easy class, only one assignment per week which contained 4 to 6 questions. All of the questions he asks can easily be found online if you ever get stuck. His tests were ok, some of the questions on the weekly assignments are also on the tests so if you do the assignments first then you'll get a better grade on the test.

Comment:

i took astronomy online and although there was only a 4-6 question assignment and 20 question quiz per week. the quizzes most of the time didnt relate to the reading. you can find some of the answers on quizlet. i wouldnt recommend this class if you are just taking it for credit you really have to read the book and understand everything.

Each week there is one 20 question quiz and 3-4 homework assignment. These quizzes and homework assignments make up 1/3 of your grade, the midterm and final make up the other 2/3. Just read and you'll get an A.

Comment:

This class was awesome depending on the kind of student you are. I'm lazy and just wanted an easy A in a class that I don't particularly have any interest in. There is no discussion boards which is amazing. You have a 3-4 question assignment and a 20-point quiz every week. Easiest class I've ever taken. Buy the book and use quizlets for an easy A

dont take this online class if you have no motivation to pursue astronomy. i took it to get the credits but wasn't a fan. wish we could have been able to meet once a week so we could ask the professor questions but everything was on your own

He outlines the basics of what you need to know but read read read your textbook and suplement with YouTube vids. Weekly Quizzes are straight from hw problems. Tests are manageable. Labs and quizzes are worth enough you can pull off an A with only getting Bs on the exams.

Overall, a pretty easy class. The weekly assignments were around 5 questions and if you completed them, you got full credit. The quizzes for each chapter were also very easy and the answers could be found online. Most of the midterm and final could not be googled, but if you study, you'll be fine. He also makes one quiz EC if you complete them all.

There's a quiz and a homework assignment every week, the assignment is based off completion. Quizzes are super easy and 20 questions each week. The midterm and final are more difficult but if you study for it you'll pass. Responds to emails in a timely manner as well. Easy A if you do his assignments and quizzes each week.

Dr. Haeri is a great physics prof. He has a way of making this hard subject understandable. Exams are fair. He team teaches the class with professor Marsh. I highly recommend his physics courses.

Prof. Haeri is a great, fair teacher. Show up, do the easy homework, do flash cards before the exams, and work with your small group: it's an easy A or B. He brought the universe to us and created an exciting class in addition to the observatory. Extra credit IS available if you go to the astronomy club meetings. 2 extra points to your grade/mtg.

Professor Haeri is the best Physics teacher at Saddleback. I took 4A from Canales and then 4B from Haeri. What a pleasant transition. He knows his stuff and is patient with students. Grading is very straightforward. On exams he pulls problems right out of the textbook. Definitely recommended. I just wish he taught 4C.

If you want an A, then don't take his online Astro class. The only reason why I even got an A was because I had a friend who was also taking the class helping me. You'll get perfect scores on the homework and weekly quizzes but the midterm and final exam will f up your grade. They are 600 points in total. You can't google all the questions
