Overall, the class is an easy A but his lectures take up about 75% of the class time, on top of his monotone radio commentator voice. 5 tests and no homework. His book is "required" but if you can take good notes during class, you can pass his tests. Just read more at home.

If you're looking for an easy A then I'd say this class is a given. Book "required" but if you take notes during his lectures (essentially just going through each section in the book) then you wont need it. The man really is super nice, but class is pretty boring most of the time given that lectures are so long. 4 essay like tests, 1 group project

He's hilarious. He does not have the clearest grading criteria which could be dangerous in a class with 6 assignments total. However, he knows his stuff. Great lectures. Just make sure your'e clear on the essays. Show up and pay attention and there's no reason you can't earn an A.

This class was super interesting but when he is doing lecture it is just like the textbook almost word for word and can get boring but in class discussion is very interesting.

He's nice. Not many assignments. You just have to pay attention in class to pass the tests, which is kind of the problem. Good person, but just sooo boring. I'm sorry. If you can't stay awake, try reading the textbook. It helps, cause he really just goes over the content in that.

HE was an amazing professor, while it wasn't much work. he gave you time to do the reading and really understand what you are going to be writing about for the essays as well as very accessible and grades very quickly.

Incredibly boring. There were only 4 assignments the entire semester, including the final exam. So getting a bad grade on one assignment is going to tank your grade. Each class consisted of just long lectures, and as long as you just write down whats on the board its enough. No effort is needed for the class, don't take if you want to really learn

I'm not sure why the ratings are so low. We had 5 assessments in total, including a group project. The tests were honestly easy. He even sends out what to study prior. he reads from his books and takes the test on them, so I would get the book. You can tell he really enjoys what he does, and he was a funny person and nice.

Dr. Alexander is funny and very kind. You have to make sure to attend every class, the lectures are very important. There is quite a bit of group work, although very little of it needs to be completed outside of class. You get to use flash cards on the tests, so you don't need to memorize anything. I enjoyed the class!
