Great teacher. Do bother buying the book cus you won't need it. He uses powerpoint to lecture which is an awesome and the best way to teach this course. Study and memorize the lecture notes cus it'll be on the quizzes and exams. Grade base on the result of your quizzes and exams so you better study your material in order to pass. Also, for his fina

I am taking him for both lecture and lab. This teacher is easy if you pay attention and study. You do not have to play the guessing game when it comes to tests. His powerpoints are online and simple to understand. If you are good at studying then you can do well in this class. Take him for both lab and lecture at the same time. Its worth it.

This teacher is great! There are 4 test with the lowest score being dropped and a final. Quizes are often but not hard as he gives u warnings. No need for book 95% of stuff is from the "powerpoint's" that he lets you download and those "PP" are his lectures that he uses in class. Funny guy, class is interesting I definitely recommend.

This guy made Biology a walk in the park for me. Basically, you come to class write what's on the powerpoint. read it before the quiz or exam..poof! A. His quizzes posses no challenge at all His exam maybe a little difficult, but if you study, you would atleast get a B you have to write a 2 page paper half-way through the semester..2 Pages, Come On

His lectures are very organized and clear. Your grade comes from 4 tests, several quizzes, and a paper. It's not difficult if you study hard, listen, and attend class.

Professor Davison is a nice guy, but the lab is a ridiculous amount of work for 1 unit, and it's pretty difficult. Granted I put more effort into other classes but again being 1 unit you shouldn't have to put forth so much time and energy. I got an "A" in honors bio but a "C" in the 1 unit lab.

It is important to attend class because the powerpoint presentations play a major role in helping you pass the tests. There are 4 tests and a topic paper. If you score well on them, you will do good.

Honestly Biology isnt my strongest subject. However, I tried my best to pass this class and he made it possible with trying to make it easier for students. I had to miss the final due to a family medical emergency, and he has been so accommodating for me. I would take his class again.

Prof Davison's class is straightforward - just stay engaged, do the work, and you'll do well. The lectures are informative, and using unstuck ai alongside the textbook helped me ace the quizzes and exams. Definitely take this in-person if you can.

Attending and engaging in the lectures for this class is mandatory if you want to pass. The exams are based on his lectures. Overall, the subject is interesting, and he does a great job keeping you engaged.

There is a quiz every class, but if you briefly study each chapter every week you will do well. Complete the study guides and study and you will pass the class.

Do not take this professor for the 8 week class. I had a 4.0 GPA before this/took it on my last semester Exams=mind game He doesn't take attendance, become friends with someone who takes great notes. Start a discord. Minimum 486/540 points to get an A plus 10 point extra credit points for visiting a nature center.

Davison was the worst college professor I have ever had. He is unprepared when it comes to his lab sections, gives unclear instructions, and is so unorganized. The first day he read the syllabus off of his phone and had one copy of the assignment for a class of 40. His class is easy but honestly not worth the frustration of dealing with him.

I recommend taking Professor Davison's in-person lecture class because he made the lectures interesting and informative in a way that being in an online class could not have achieved. He only grades on a few things and gives you opportunities to increase your score with extra credit. Trust me, take his in-person class, you will not regret it.

This course should be taken in-person because all the materials you need for the weekly labs are supplied for you. Professor Davison has a laid back style and explains in detail what is expected of you. Quizzes and exams are based on study questions he provides. He also gives extra credit opportunities. I highly recommend his in-person class!

Davison's Bio41 courses were great. There were really interesting and engaging labs, and the lecture material was easy to understand. There were realistic expectations of students throughout the whole semester. Definitely recommend taking him in person if you can for lots of learning and extra credit opportunities!
