There are weekly discussions that are based on each chapter. Do them and put in effort in the discussion and you will get a good grade. There are two exams, he gives out a study guide that shows what's on the test. Great professor. I got a 237 out of 220. Learned a lot. Great class.

He is honestly caring and will work with you. Very understanding to real life personal issues, he let me take the final exam before the date due so I would not miss a very important day of training for a new job. Reviews are clear cut and easy to study from since exams come str8 out of his study guides. 2 exams 12 discussions EASY but NEED to study

2 Exams and 12 discussions , He gives extra credit for the more you write on your discussions and allows you to turn in late discussions for one more point off. However, if you write a lot you can redeem a better grade on them. Study guides are provided and exams are easy to complete once you have studied the entire study guide. Please study & easy

PROF NANEY is super chill. He really wants you to learn and made class easy to learn. A discussion a week related to chapter and all test directly from book. He does talk alot but is funny as hell and very nice. The study guides had all the material and if you are close to next grade he will give it if you came to class. Really great professor.

Cool professor. He's a cop so he knows a lot about what he is teaching. Very understanding. Can go off topic and be repetitive with his personal stories. SEND EMAILS EVERY WEEK. CHECK EVERYDAY!! Weekly discussions on Bb. Two tests (mid and final). A lot of info but if you give yourself time to prioritize and study, you will be fine!

Professor Nanney has been one of the best professors Ive had at FIU. There are 14 discussions which by the way if you take your time on it (theyre super easy) he will even give you extra points!! And there is a Midterm and Final which he also does his own study guide and gives it to you. If you do the work, its easy!

Professor Nanney is really down to earth and helps you with any questions you have. During his PowerPoint lectures he lets you know what to study for the midterm and final. Also if class gets canceled he sends out an outline of what to study. He also gives 12 discussions that are pretty straight forward and relate to the weeks chapter. 10/10

Class was kinda hard but Prof Nanney told you what to expect in each class. If you read study and do the discussions you will pass. He makes class interesting and gives extra points on discussions which helps on your final class grade. He always answers emails on time overall great teacher.

1 midterm and 1 final. There were 14 discussion posts which were easy. Write a little and get 10 points. Write a lot and get more points put to your final grade. He gives study guides for both exams and they are extremely helpful. He will give attendance points at the end if you get close to the next grade up, for example a 79 or 89.
