I don't know how he does it, but his enthusiasm is sky-high. The class isn't easy, but it's very fair. There are plenty of chances for extra credit and he is more than willing to help you on the way. The textbook isn't used at all during the classroom, but is absolutely ESSENTIAL for the quizzes. And yes, he's attractive. :] Totally recommend him!

VERY interesting lectures. A lot of what he teaches is applicable to life and can potentially change the way you think. You can use notes on midterms (4 exams in total), and even if you don't do well on them, he gives a ton of extra credit. There's also group work and 2 essays, but he lets you know the topics ahead so you know what to do. Take him!

My advice for the very first day of class is to find a seat next to the smartest looking person because it's likely you will form a group with the people around you. That group could either be a blessing or a curse because the group will carry you during your weak spots. And when you are in a group, make sure you do your part.

Make sure that you schedule him for your last class. He often lets you out early and there is often no class the last week of the semester unless you have makeup work.

Best teacher I've had at Evergreen College BY FAR. Very educated man that you can tell knows his stuff and makes sure he's super clear on everything that he wants. Lectures were always super interesting and I learned a lot. Just do your stuff and you'll pass with an A. Also, make sure your group that you pair up with on the first day is awesome.

He's a good teacher; however, his tests are really hard even with the test notes. Plus beware the portfolio project. It's really something that shouldn't be put off

Carothers offers TONS of extra credit and allows 2 sheets of paper as a cheat sheet front and back for exams. The way he lectures is super energetic and you can tell he really has a passion for what he does. He's suuper nice and understanding, definitely take him! Do the homework and you're guaranteed to pass.

Took him summer 2016. This review is too late but I do highly recommend him in class. Many people asked me about who was my professor in Psychology. I recommended him to everyone. I have him online and his lectures are something that you will really learn from it. He gives you personal feedback about your work and I like it! He's strict time-wise

Carothers responds to e-mails very quickly, UNLESS you have a question about a grade you received as he states that you can get 'unlimited feedback' BEFORE a specific date, BEFORE an assignment is due. His grading rubrics are very confusing. Otherwise, do all his assignments and it's an easy A! Plus he gives out lots of extra credit!!

Only thing I hated was emailing him because he would give kind of rude replies back. Its almost as if he wants us to feel stupid for asking him for help on anything. When I would ask for help he told me "did you look at the syllabus", as if I didn't already try that. I had asked for help from classmates who were also given rude replies from him.

I liked Mr. Carothers online class style. You will do well if you read his free e-textbook, take good notes, and put thought into essays. It was great how he graded on how well I knew the content and not on my mediocre writing skills. Though the class is very doable, MANAGE YOUR TIME and really put out a few hours a week to study.

Holy crap. He has a huge 5 page paper due 3 days after the online semester starts. Like what the heck dude. He has so much information on his class canvas page that it comes to a TL;DR situation. Also, to get a minimum on his essays you NEED to write at least 5 pages, seriously dude. People have jobs here. He does give extra credit though.

His online summer course is INSANE. Responses to academic forums (already a freaking essay of 3 pages) requires another essay (for responses)! Also he is NOT accommodating for his summer classes. Too much work in a short amount of time is unacceptable!

He was a really good lecturer, he was super interesting and made you never want to skip class. However his tests were extremely hard (so make a really good cheat sheet!) and he makes you do group work so make sure you have a good group from the start. His hw isn't bad, but he has gotten harder over the years and I'm sure there are easier teachers

Mr Carothers is a great guy. Extremely passionate about what he does. You can sleep through his class, because the lectures will not exactly help you on the test, however they are interesting and very easy to relate too. Before each test just go on google docs and type up a bunch of notes from the textbook and there's no doubt you'll pass with an A

This dude puts 3 HUGE papers due the same week. Normally that wouldn't be so bad but you only get a WEEK to do all of them. This guy assumes you have 100% of your time allocated to this class and you don't have a job. I'm going to need to take time off of work to do these assignments. Thanks. Summer classes are supposed to be easier.

Mr. C is one of the most passionate teachers you will ever have. When he is speaking you can see that he really cares about the material. The tests are all based from the textbook and you're allowed 4 pages of notes. There are two main essays and two debates. Even if you mess up one of the big assignments, you can still get an A. He has a LOT of ec
