He is easy and very clear on what he wants up front. Not a lot of reading. Gives you typed pages about the chapters and that what is on the test. Don't really need the text book. After test you get to argue if you think an answer is right and as long as you have a point he gives it to you! Very easy.

He has no control over his classroom, and is flexible on somethings and on others he is not. The problem is it is impossible to know which is which. This is one of the worst classes I have ever taken. I have learned very little as the info he teaches is old and out dated,or is just common sense.

He appears to be a nic guy, but he is not very helpful in explaing. When writing a paper he wants very specific things, the problem is that he says he is looking for X, but then if X is not in the right place it is wrong. You can write the best paper in the world but if X is not in the right place you will get at best a D. Avoid Sasse at all costs.

HE was not hard, but you really have to attend class and pay attention, which is hard because he makes the subject a little boring. If you miss one day you will not do well on the test. One good thing about him is that he lets you argue about answers and will sometimes bump you up a letter grade on a test.

He is very nice, though his class is borderline TOO easy. Because of this he grades things harshly if you mess up a little on one of your assignments. If you don't mess up and don't make him work too hard, you'll do fine. Also, he didn't seem to like when people did more work than they had to, because that meant he would of had to as well.

Ive taken a couple of classes with Sasse. I failed my 1st class w/ him b/c I thought the class was so easy that I kinda left it in the back burner & forgot about it. Since his classes are a lil slow, I found participating in the lectures helpful to stay engage & w/ the assignments & exams. Also, keep track of your own grades. He doesnt use canvas

Professor Sasse is super laid back and easy. 6 tests but he drops the lowest one and 2 papers. The papers are super short and simple and he is an easy grader if you follow his guidelines. Highly recommend, an easy A. Study for tests though.

Such a nice professor who makes this class easy to pass; just show up show up, pay attention to lecture, and study your notes for the tests. He also does 3 observations, 1 research paper, and 1 group presentation. They are all very easy, just put in the effort. I loved this class!

This class is based solely off lectures and reading the handouts given. There are ten assignments you are graded on but he is clear on the detail he wants every assignment. Would not recommend if you need more than just a handout. However all his handouts are practically the test. He was a great professor and I really enjoyed his class.

Maybe it was because the class was moved to online, but this was one of the most confusing classes I've ever taken. The entirety of the class was littered with vague questions, prompts and assignments. Often through the zooms many of the examples provided would confuse the professor himself. Materials were scarce. Nice guy, but horrendous course.

I failed only 1 APA paper and I wish he had given me the opportunity to re-write it. I worked rather hard in this class to say the least. I have 8 yrs of experience as an early childhood teacher & I found his tests to be hard. He allows too much convo & not enough lecture. I wouldn't recommend him unless C.D. is something you are familiar with.

I took this class fall of 2024 and I wouldn't recommend this class. He gives a lot of homework and is a tough grader. On top of that he responds to emails late. During lecture we often spent more time on discussing about the discussion posts than the projects. This class is mainly projects worth a lot of points &it is hard to bring your grade up.

This teacher has caused me stress as he takes off points grades wrong and when I try to tell him he dodges the question. I also have accommodations for extra time that he won't let me use as he claim it's unfair to the other students. I have had tech issues for the midterm won't let me give me extra time. TAKE ANY OTHER TEACHER BESIDES THIS TEACHER

You read the free online book at home and then you go to class and discuss it. There are questions you have to answer afterwards plus 2 main papers. I was worried as I haven't taken a college class in years but the teacher really makes grading easy. Just follow the instructions and you will be ok! Easy going professor, i'm sad its over!
