Great teacher !
He is an awesome teacher and I feel like i have learned so much about music and the history of music thanks to him. He only has four tests and the class is one day a week so showing up is important. He's pretty funny too and he will always go over and review with the class the week before the test. I would take his class again.
Great professor but I would take this class online to save your time and gas
Knows the material extremely well and made the class extremely interesting. Test material is straightforward, and if you read the book and come to class you'll get an A.
Fun class, overall an interesting class with multiple chances to pass.
Really great class overall, not very difficult, highly recommended.
He was good
Class was good and provides a lot of chances to get a good grade
As long as you are engaged and paying attention you should be good. You learn some cool stuff. There's a 1,000 essay but it's over a concert so it's cool
He is so sweet!
Take the class if you want a general knowledge of popular music, /!; it's incredibly entertaining
Take good notes, read the textbook, have multiple chances for extra credit
Took this class every friday. Good class, good professor!
The class is very informative about the history of music. He explains things really well, and makes sure that everyone is on the same page before he moves on. Attendance is a must, since it's once a week. Definitely get the text book and read the chapters cause it helps a lot.
Good professor, I enjoyed this class. There is nothing that I would change.
Attendance and participation make it easier to pass if listen to lecture. Write down everything professor shows and writes.
Take good notes, read the textbook, have multiple chances for extra credit, not hard to follow along

Lots of reading, handful of chances for extra credit , easy course , nice teacher , not a lot of class work
Very friendly and caring to his students, I will recommend anyone that want to take music 1310 to take him
Great class! Pay attention. Do the work. Easy A.
Broaden your musical tastes while learning the history behind it makes it a cool class for me
Really good professor
Very good professor, lecture is fun and detailed note taking is necessary. He gives extra credit opportunities
Great teacher!!
Great professor. Lecture heavey, but he does not talk too fast.
Great teacher makes it fun to learn and is not boring.
Great professor all around, does everything a student could ask for
He was very up front and was never planning something without letting you know as long as you do the work correctly you will pass
Absolute loved this class!!! Professor's lectures were clear and insightful, he was easy to reach with questions, and he introduced us to new genres of rock and roll.
I thought this class would be a boring lecture class b/c it was an American music history but as long as you come to class and actually pay attention you will enjoy the way the music industry came about from 1920's to now. The professor is prepared with each video on the main bands you will be learning about. Just take notes as he speaks.
Great class and Im not that into music
your attendance is a grade so don't miss his class but there are a lot of extra credit opportunities he writes alittle on the board but most of the notes that will be good for the test come from what he is saying
Very Funny Good Teacher Have to read the chapters of the book.
This class is a little difficult regarding test, but you keep up with the reading you will be fine
Class was very simple and relaxed . Easy to understand
He is great, just follow directions
Make sure you read the book and attend class and you'll pass
Very good teacher. Make sure you read your book
Just gotta pay attention and youre fine
Im so glad I took this class! It was very interesting. The professor was very easy to listen to.
Great class. Amazing professor. Easy A
Very knowledgable over material. Allows you to turn in essays more than once to get a better grade. An overall nice man who remembers your name.
Lectures every day, study for tests or you will fail. Extra credit offered through concert attendance.
You have to read a lot for this course but if you listen closely and take notes, youll most likely pass.
great teacher very good explainer
Professor Robinson is a great music professor.
My experience in Professor Robinson's class is a very pleasant one. Every morning he comes in passionate than ever to teach our about music. He's very charming and well spoken also his boots are cool. If you're coming into to this class with no knowledge of the history of music then good luck. JK he gives solid advice and does give extra credit!
Great professor, would recommend
Everyday is a lecture and after is a test.
He is a great professor who gives really good lectures.
Awesome teacher, great teaching style but too heavy on lectures.
He is a great teacher and will help you with any questions you have, he's also nice and is very understanding.
Mr. Robinson is one of the best professors i have had and really inspires me to love music.
Thanks for being fair
Great Professor. Very much recommended. I learned what I was supposed to
Seems very passionate about music, I learned a lot and enjoyed my time in his class.
Great teacher, if you have low grades it is honestly your own fault.
He provides a clear understanding of what is expected. Lectures are clear and makes music understandable.
A good class
He gave excellent feedback and is well-respected among his contemporaries. I was happy to be around him even though it was a little awkward at first in a new class. I am proud to say I was able to get my assignments done on time despite the fair amount of difficulty I had with them. However I'm proud to say that I've created 2 compositions. Yay!
Sometimes the lectures are difficult but with good notes youll pass the test!
Great professor ! Make sure you read your book ad study.
Great professor and explains things very well and clearly.
chad is an amazing professor he makes sure you understand the course very well he is really organized and very good at what he does.
He is a good professor, however he can become impatient
Great class, but you can not be consistently absent. I didnt read much of the textbook and I have an ok grade, but the textbook was great for studying. There arent many grades, just a few tests and an essay at the end.
Very good professor but read textbook on your own time!
Good at making class participate, cool person, can be strict when he wants to
Great teacher. Makes class enjoyable.
Gave very good lectures, very passionate about what he teaches.
Good Professor. Cool person
Good teacher
I now eat,sleep and breathe SHAKESPEARE. Chad Robinson is the best professor, I learned so much in his class. 10/10 would recommend!
Dr. Chad Robinson is my biggest motivation I all of a sudden have a major passion for historical music like I absolutely love it!! ahhhhh! DUH.
Professor Robinson is a very calm man that doesnt ask for much from you from class. The class just needs to listen and take solid notes, and you will be successful.
Professor Robinson is a really great professor. His lectures are throughly detailed. He does a great job at lecturing. Make sure you participate in lectures and study for the tests.
Proffesor Robinson was an amazing Professor. Although he lectures the whole class time, his lectures are very informative and everything on the test is straight from the lectures. If you study for the tests you can get an easy A and the tests arent too difficult. We review the day before test day and he covers everything on the test.
Hes a very good teacher, good at explaining.
Good at explaining!
Good professor makes the class enjoyable!
Good professor
The material of this class was very interesting and 90% of the test material is from the lectures.
Professor Robinson is very good at providing information and elaborating on it, allowing students to really think about the matter at hand and formulate their own conclusions and ideas. A very solid class, would highly recommend it.
Great Class! I took this course as a high school student gaining college credit over the 2021-2022 school year for one semester. And I am glad I took this course as opposed to art appreciation. A very fair grader and fairly easy assignments if you pay attention.
He was extremely nice and seemed very passionate about his class. Totally Recommend!
A real good professor. His lectures are planned well, he elaborates on topics very well, offers a real insight into music. 10/10.
good class.
Professor Robbinson was really funny and he gave minimal work. However, I will say that if you don't turn something in on time then he will not give you the opportunity to make it up. Same thing with low grades. The exams were pretty easy if you simply just studied and took notes during his lectures.
An amazing professor!
Love this class! His lectures are usually engaging and easy to comprehend, and tests are 11/10 since questions are very straightforward. He's super well-spoken and sarcastic too, his personality is what makes his class tolerable. I would 100% recommend!
Very good professor, always engaging with the class and going over everything that needs reviewed
He is a good teacher. If you show up and take notes the exams will be a breeze. There is no assignments just 4 exams, a concert report, and one quiz. Would take again.
I truly enjoyed taking music appriciation with Professor Robinson. I came into this class only in it to get credit but left feeling inspired to learn more about the culture of music.
Great professor.
Great guy and excellent teacher
Awesome teacher would take it again
Great class
Slides broke down the chapters very well. Way better than Having to read textbook
Overall a great instructor. Very relaxed but also still respected.
He was a good teacher, Im sad I probably wont have him again. Definitely one of my favorite teachers
Very knowledgeable and clear about the subject. Detailed instructions that help lead you in a positive direction.
A great professor and gives amazing lectures on the subject in class.
A GREAT Professor!
This class was described as being difficult but with the help of this professor it was almost an easy A.
no comments. really good professor
Dr Robinson really makes sure we are prepared for a test coming up the next week and is very specific with what he teaches
Great at giving feed back and good opinions
My professor is very straightforward with what is supposed to be expected into passing. Everything is easy if you put in your effort and attention. He doesn't do make-up work but has been given 2 extra credit assignments. Also in class, he tries to make sure we are actively listening to help us in the class yet he doesn't force us to pay attention.
Mr. Robinson was a very kind professor who is passionate about what he teaches. However, I wish the tests werent timed for such a short period.

Very straightforward and nice.
Very Dedicated to his line of work. Respectful, Funny, and understanding. Great Professor
Professor Robinson is very understanding and fun to talk to. Class is not hard and neither are the tests. You just have to have an understanding of what is going on.
The professor clearly states how your grade is weighted and goes over due dates and the content for the course that the tests are on.
He is very passionate about the subject matter, and the few tests we take do mean a lot for your grade.
Its not a hard course, just do your test and paper and you shall succeed.
Professor Robinson gives good lectures and makes sure we know the information needed.
Very chill but you'll still gain something from the class.
Gives few assignments and uses all of class time for lectures.
Great professor who is passionate about there job and there career in music.
You only have to write one essay and the rest are tests.
I felt prepared for every test, and material was thoroughly explained. This was a class where I feel like I genuinely learned, even though I only took it for credit. He makes sure the entire class engages in the lectures.
He's pretty cool very nice and easy to speak with about grades so long as your actually participating. Information for tests and papers is readily available and easily accessible.
He is a very good professor and I recommend taking his class. For this class, we only did a syllabus quiz, five tests, and one essay and they were all easy.
The course was very straightforward in its materials and assignments, so I was able to learn and understand the subject quite easily.
The professor is nice and the course is easy. The only assignments we had were tests but they were all open note and unproctored. We only had to write one power but it only had to be 500 words minimum.
so nice, only 5 assignments
Everything on the tests is in the lecture, easy class if you actually pay attention
This professor was very helpful he discussed many important thing in class and made sure we understood everything he was discussing
he was agood professor and i learned alot in thiss class.
Robinson was by far the best professor I've had, even though I took this class just for the credit. He made very interesting to learn about all the different era's of music. Highly recommend
There is a concert you will be required to attend for a concert report that is worth 15% of your grade,
Love this class!
I absolutely loved coming to his class! he makes everything so easy !
He only has about 6 grades for the whole semester so make sure that you do well on them. At the time of this review all of his assignments and resources are online and easy to use. He is very good I would recommend if you have to take a music appreciation class and he is an option I would say take his class over the others.
Dr. Robinson was a wonderful professor. Very knowledgeable and made class interesting.
Overall he is a great teacher and his lectures are easy to understand. There are no surprises when it comes to the tests. It was a pleasure and fun to be in his class.
Dr. Robinson is a great professor! Very well-versed in his craft, he lectures in a way that is both informational and easy to digest. His Music Appreciation class is not hard at all, and he very clearly enjoys the course and interacting with students. Fantastic course and an even better professor!
