I hate science, but after having him as a prof, I've grown to like it a bit. He's fun to watch, because he's so into the subject. He makes jokes, that most people don't get at 1st, so it's even funnier. He talks fast, but tries to write everything down to make it easier. Simply, he makes the lectures more fun than they usually are. You'll like him.

A great teacher and a great person! He is very laid back but cares about how your doing. He seems to always have an open door, he will answer questions and is flexible when dealing with a problem (the book, making it to lab, ect.) You can tell that he really likes his job!

This was a great class because Albright is an awesome professor! He really knows what he is talking about and will use his experience in the field in his lectures. He is pretty funny too. The only things graded are a few exams that come straight from the notes given in his lectures. Attendance is not mandatory, but necessary to pass the exams.

Lots of online (Connect) homework. Hand-writes notes on the board instead of powerpoints. Funny and helpful if you seek out the help, but his tests aren't easy and there isn't much extra credit, so get help early! Over all, not bad for a lecture hall class.

LOTS OF HOMEWORK

He makes Earth Science interesting, which was something I didnt think was possible before taking his class. Your grade is made up of 4 of 5 big tests but everything you need to know he writes on the board during lectures. Because of this, its important that you show up to each class or have someone take good notes for you. I highly recommend!

Not as good as everyone makes him out to be. It wasn't the most boring class, but it was nowhere near great. He drags on about the same topic. One page syllabus - so you know you're gonna be confused. The Connect portion IS NOT REQUIRED so I'm glad I didn't waste my money on it. You must go to class to pass the exams, and even that isn't enough.

All the tests are on information covered in class, lectures arent boring and hes a funny guy. he gives you all the information you need to know for the test so you just have to look over it. online homework is only used at the end of the course if youre grade in borderline. if you did the homework he will give you a B+ in stead of a low B

Rewrite your notes word by word to prepare for the tests. Good lectures but they are very in depth. If you skip class make sure to get the notes from someone or you wont pass. NOTES ARE LITERALLY THE TEST! TAKE GOOD NOTES!

Very smart guy and gives really good lectures. The class size was pretty big but he still made them feel involving. Goes over the material very clearly and you can tell that he knows what he's talking about. Very nice guy and will answer any question you ask. He's also really funny and isn't afraid of saying he doesn't know the answer to a question

He is very passionate about what he does and is always willing to help students who come to him for help. The class itself is boring and he just lectures the whole time but if you show up and take notes you will pass.

Albright has been one of my favorite professors since attending UNF. He is passionate about his work and cares for his students. The class is based solely on tests. However, if you do the homework and you are borderline on your grade he will bump you up but only if you do all the homework. The first 3 tests are hard, but the last 2 I passed with A.

100% of your grade is tests. He also gives you all of the material for the tests on the board while he lectures. If you literally write what he writes and study it you will get an easy A. I got a B+ because I didn't study for the first test, but I got A's on every other test. Awesome guy with some cool stories.

Professor Albright is great, super funny, and engaging. He clearly lays out exactly how to pass and all you need to do is take notes on every lecture. HIS TESTS ARE HIS NOTES (he literally told us that).

I would recommend anyone to take Albright's class time and time again.He's one of those teachers that WANT to see you succeed.I failed my first exam and after I reached out for help and studied with the active recall technique, I passed every exam with flying colors. His classes are all lecture heavy, so attend every lecture as they are informative
