The class is an online only class that uses Aleks as the online program to complete your work. You basically teach yourself the math and have no professor interaction. You are expected to complete 10 hours of homework a week. In addition you must get an 80% on the final or else you fail the class which does not make sense at all.

Prof. Christopher Copeland was a great professor! You're required to reach 10 hours/week in the ALEKS program with a minimum topic goal each week. The amount of time to hit my weekly hours was a little hard, but he allowed you to finish the course early if all your topics are completed, which I did. The program is easy to use. Enjoyed this class!

I would not recommend taking him online during the summer. He requires you to log in every single day for four hours. not even just 5 days out of the week but every single day & when I spoke to him about it he just said that was part of the class requirements. So even tho I was ahead in the material my grade was still lowered because I didn' log in

Online math is not for everyone, but I loved the ALEKS program. Work at your own pace; if you work ahead, you can score high on tests & finish early. Program makes you relearn the topics if you don't understand so it's not all or nothing. 80% on the final to pass is reasonable because the test changes as you take it based on how well you're doing.

This class is for independent study. At first you needed to get an 80% or higher on the final to pass, but eventually he offers extra credit which reduces it down to 70%. I got a 91% on the final. He uses a program called Alecs which is a dynamic program that is personally tailored to your learning. He requires 10 hours per week, I had 200 overall.

Zero study guides given at any time, despite the grading being extremely tough. Uses Alex as the only material for the class and thus cannot teach the whole of the class something everyone is on. Not nice to talk with and does not understand the fine questions of the material and often gives incomplete verbal answers or non-answers to topics.

Completely self paced so if you are mainly a self starter you'll probably do well and the program Aleks lets you pick which topics you'd like to navigate through within each section. Good teacher and you have a lot of time for questions. Final is worth a lot and it helps to test well in this class if you don't it is easy to get behind.

I was misled when I signed up for this class. Although all the reviews are positive, that is because Professor Copeland gives his class 5 extra credit points at the end of the semester. Your grade is based on tests. 4 tests make up your grade; everything needs to be his exact way for full credit if not no credit. He also does not teach.

DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS!!!! The ratings are misleading! The only reason he has so many positive reviews is that he gives you extra credit if you rate him and show him. His tests are more than 80% of your grade and if you do one step wrong on the test but get the right answer he gives you a 0 on that question. The study guide is nothing like the test.

Professor Copeland's class uses the software ALEKS which we used to learn the material, do practice problems, and take exams. There's a bit of a learning curve to the program since it throws you into the material, but once you get the hang of it its super helpful. The professor is also quick to answer any questions through email.

The course was fairly straight forward and the homework was reasonable. The tests make up majority of your grade but they are very accurate to the material taught and the review guides are very helpful. The professor is helpful and will respond quickly to emails and offer assistance during office hours.
