3 test- not to hard if you study, 3 essay- easy topics but tough to get an A, 1 group project as the final and participation points helps a lot. Great teacher overall.

He's a good teacher. It's clear he cares about the subject matter and his students. This class was quite a bit of work but I learned from it (which is rare in most of the college classes I've taken). He made the class interesting which I appreciated. No tests but lots of writing.

Dr. Bogosian was my Phil-1C professor. Dr. Bogosian really knows the material and is very clear on what he expects of you. During the semester I had 3 Exams (100 points), 3 Essays (100 points), and a final group presentation. Show up. Do the work. You'll get out alive. You get participation points for coming to class too. Great professor.

He loves teaching and he cares about his students. He sets the bar high but helps you how to reach it. Provides helpful feedback on essays. Gives good review guides. Take good notes and use the help do well on tests. Loved our conversations which often continued with each him and us outside class.

If you show up to class you will pass. Gives great lecturers and clear study guides for tests. Tests are lecture heavy and he provides handouts for each lecture so it makes studying and grasping the material very easy. Final is a group PowerPoint project that you have weeks to put together so as long as you stay on top of your group you are golden.

I took his class twice because I didn't take it seriously the first time. His expectations are clear and he's very organized. You will have a layout of the 18 weeks in the syllabus. He's very fast at posting grades. You will read A LOT and write about 3 papers. Very interactive class. He gives great study guides and the PPT are good too.

Great professor. Tough material covered. He knows his stuff. Awesome note handouts. Must study to pass. Engage in conversation so you can process info a little better. Hated the group presentation because the people I worked with were lazy and I did most of the work. On the plus side Dr.B is hot lol

Nice professor. Have to really read material because tests aren't just based on notes. Kinda funny sometimes. Overall, he explains things really well in class, but has high expectations. Just pay attention and read the reading assignments.

This was not the easiest class I've ever taken, but it wasn't too difficult. Make sure you go to class to hear the lectures. Dr Bogosian prints out the lecture notes which is nice, especially because they're probably what you should study most for the tests and yes, you will have to study for the tests. It was a great class with interesting topics.

Dr. Bogosian is a good and reasonable guy. He lets people speak their ideas, challanges them, and helps people understand their own beliefs more. When I would put forward an arguement that I couldn't quite articulate, he would ask the right questions to help. Take this class if you need a phil. class or if you are just interested in philosophy.

Dr. Bogosian is a personable and takes you seriously. He knows his stuff and is fun to engage. He uses a combo of lecture and discussion, and keeps things interesting. Expect to be challenged to think and work for your grade, but know that he cares and always tells you what he's looking for. I've taken multiple classes and think he's legit.

This class will challenge you to think new and deeper ways about Ethics, but it's worth it. I feel more equipped to think through hard cases on job. Bogosian respects his students and it shows in how he teaches and listens to you. Loves what he does and is well-prepared. Highly recommend!

Bogosian is an amazing professor. His lectures are clean, thorough, and engaging, giving you a deeper understanding into the world of philosophy. Your grade is pretty much broken down into 4 exams, 2 essays, and your final which is a group project, plus He provides the class with lecture notes and study guides. I had a great experience with him

3rd class I've taken with him. READ, study, and its an easy A. Great guy, will talk to you forever after class nd in office hours. Was unsure if I wanted to finish college and his teaching gave me hope in collegiate schooling lol. Take his class if you want to be a teacher. Good balance of difficulty, and I've learned a lot. Highly recommend.

Dr. Bogosian is an interest, engaging, and overall great teacher who loves his students and the material. He will challenge you but supports you the whole way. Gotta read and come to class to succeed. Rewards hard work and personal responsibility.

Very clear syllabus and course structure in Canvas. He is very clear about what's expected and how to do well,. You have to read/study to earn your grade, and I was thrilled with what I got. Bogosian loves the material and is a passionate teacher and he motivated me to be a better person through our discussion of life's ultimate questions. Awesome!

Very engaging. Lectures are clear and easy to follow. Assignment expectations clear, and he grades fair when you follow directions. Made me want to take more philosophy courses, and for an online class this stood out as one of my best.

Great teacher! High quality discussion and lectures. He's accessible and responds to coursework and email within a reasonable time. I'd take him again!

Passionate about teaching, and cares about your learning. Listen well and follow directions, and you'll do fine. If you skip class or blow off assignments, it will be tough to get the grade. I'd take him again and even considered changing my major.

Interesting material, and great teacher. Works hard to draw class into discussion. Does a nice job sprinkling stories, pop culture, and current events into class to show you where the ideas show up.

The class consisted of two papers and three exams (no final). The tests are based on the lecture notes and as long as you go over them before the test you will be just fine. Professor Bogosian is a bit strict but he is nice and you can tell he cares about his students. I thought this class would be much harder, but it was easy and straight-forward.

Professor Bogosian really cares to teach and is very knowledgeable. He takes the time to post very detailed lectures and gives lots of examples. If you listen carefully and take notes and review the text you will do great on the test. This was an on line course. However, his discussion boards are worth 50 points and he graded them very very hard.

Clear Canvas Course set up. You have to read, study, and view lectures as expected. I followed directions and asked questions and did well. His teaching style is engaging and gave me lots to think about.

Dr. B is a good teacher and expects lots from his students. He believes in our success does what he can to help you if you ask. Do the work, take good notes, and you'll do just fine. I'll take any class he offers. One of the best I've had.

One of the best at CCC and that I've had. Clear guidelines and is accessible. It's Philosophy, so you have to be patient and stick with it and ask lots of questions. He knows his stuff.

Challenging but stimulating. Class wills stretch you but you'll enjoy it if you stick with it. I'd take him again if Honors had more Philosophy

You gotta read, view lectures, and put time into Discussion Boards to do well. But it's not hard if you make an effort. Follow directions and you'll do well.

I've had multiple philosophy courses in our district, and he's one of the best teachers. Be there and work hard, and you'll do just fine. You gotta read and take notes.

Philosophy is hard, but Bogosian makes it engaging and interesting. If you participate, take notes, and read, you'll do fine. He was understanding to my situation which helped me succeed.

Online classes require a lot of personal effort. Dr. Bogosian structures the class in a way to make it smooth to engage each weak, IF you'll do the work. He has consistent requirements and due dates, but you have to stay on top of readings and videos to do well. Discussion Boards matter and aren't throw-away assignments.

Prof. Bogosian cares about teaching well. He's clear and easy to follow. He cares about his students and relates philosophy well to every day life. I like the small group discussions and learning other people's views. I've taken multiple classes with him and think he's one of the best teachers I've had at CCC.

Critical Thinking classes at CCC require a lot of writing, but Dr. Bogosian streamlines writing to the writings and lectures which helps students understand material. He teaches in a neutral way on controversial topics, which is refreshing and different from other teachers I've had. Bogosian wants you to think for yourself. I'd take him again.

Challenging but interesting class. Dr. Bogosian knows his stuff and is enthusiastic about teaching well. He engages us and made us think about things more deeply and carefully than most.

"C's get degrees". That's me. But multiple comments below are inaccurate. First, if you meet the 3-day/3post minimum carefully following directions, you'll get a high C on discussion boards NOT a 60. Second, he's clear the goal is engagement with the class not just posting "good job". Finally, he gives feedback to help you improve. Just ask!

Honors Ethics is a great class and challenging. Dr. Bogosian knows his stuff and how to draw students into the material. He clearly loves what he does and cares about his students. He sets the bar high and believes you can reach it. Sad to see someone below say untrue things when they didn't get the grade they wanted. Dr. Bogosian is excellent!

While you have to read and view the lectures, they will help you learn and succeed in class. Dr. Bogosian is very up front about this from day 1. Follow the directions, take notes, and you'll be fine.

Dr. Bogosian loves teach philosophy, and that always comes thru. He will help you understand over the phone or in person, and he loves to help you succeed. Yes, he has high expectations of students, but I found that reading and listening to lectures and doing what he told us to succeed led to good results.

Philosophy is hard, but Bogosian makes it understandable to his students. He's an excellent communicator and generates lots of discussion while taking neutral stances himself. You have to complete the work and readings to do well. He's the best professor I've had at CCC.

I could've earned a higher grade, but it was my last term. He's clear in what he expects and helps you reach that goal. Topics are interesting and lectures are clear. Take good notes and read, and you will enjoy the class.

Changed my major to Philosophy after taking Prof. Bogosian. Now I want to teach as well. His style is engaging and inspires students to want to think hard about the questions.

Dr. Bogosian is fair to opposing views and cares about teaching clearly. He's engaging and wants to see his students succeed. He'll help you think more deeply about important issues.

Very clear and fair. You gotta turn in the work, but what else would you expect from a college class.

I've taken Dr. Bogosian multiple times: online/hybrid and in person. He's clear, fair, and uses lots of helpful examples to get lecture material to stick. He posts note sheets (online/hybrid courses) or passes out hard copies (in-person course). If you miss a day, you can always get one from him to catch up. these are key to doing well on exams.

His teaching style is relational and engaging. Lays out key ideas and arguments, and uses every day examples to get material across. Wish he gave extra credit, but syllabus says he doesn't, so...

Online philosophy is challenging. But Dr. B includes nice recorded lectures over each content area. This helps us learn and engage more than some online classes. Works hard to make it interesting. Wish I took it in person with him.

Philosophy is hard, and I was worried about what I'd be taught. Prof. Bogosian teaches in an approachable and engaging way...asks big questions that we all wonder about. He's fair to all views and really gets you thinking. I like his clear and real style. I'd take him again even though I didn't get a high grade.

As other said, his lectures are good, and he interacts with students well. I didn't get the grade I hoped for, but I disagree with the complaints below. 6-8 graded assignments is more than the minimum of 4 required by our district, so he's fair and does't give us busy work. I wish I had gone to office hours to get help. That's on me.

Teachings are clear for online video lectures. Do the readings and Discussion Boards according to his guidelines, and you should do find.

Philosophy reading is hard (like Physics or any other conceptual subject), but doing the reading will help you succeed. Listen to the lectures to do well on tests. He's fair with all views and lets you be yourself in class discussion and on Discussion Boards. Met with me over Zoom multiple times.

Summer online classes are hard being condensed and fast-paced. Prof. Bogosian made it manageable. Expectations are clear in the Syllabus and on Canvas. He went over exams on Zoom which helped me improve.

Online summer classes are a challenge, but I came out of this class with some good stuff and a decent grade. Online lectures are better than most profs I've had. He clearly loves and understands his stuff. He's fair, and he sets the bar high. Reach out and you'll find he's approachable and tries hard to help you find a good approach.

Hard class to take as a 4-week summer session, but Dr. B made it interesting and doable. Stay up on lectures, readings, and DBs and you'll do fine.

Great professor. Clear Syllabus, Announcements and Canvas. Challenging and engaging. Wish I could've taking him in person.

Not as difficult as others claim. He's clear, and teaches the material in way easy to grasp. He makes time to help over Zoom.

Great lectures, he will answer any question you have and will guide you as long as you go to office hours. Be sure to keep up on the readings because relying on class notes won't be enough to score high on exams.

He is honestly not THAT bad. He's very nice and he is certainly smart. He knows the material very well and can answer almost any philosophical question. Best thing about him is that he is super neutral and no bias on big topics. There is only 4 exams and 4 writings the entire course that make up your grade so don't miss & he is a strict grader.
