Good professor. he makes history interesting and make jokes about it. attendance is mandatory but he is very flexible. there are like 4 or 5 tests that are hard but he lets you use your notes and any review you make. there is also a book report or service learning report very easy and gives extra credits. i recommend him but make sure to read the c

First of all these rates are useless. This man teaches everything but what is on the book. his exams are 40 something questions long and everything is based on the book nothing on his lectures. his syllabus isnt even made by him neither are his test thats why no one knows what is on them. I hate his class period biggest mistake i took it.

his tests are hard. if you read and memorize every word in the book then you will pass with flying colors, but if you go by the study guide and lecture notes like he tells you to, then its hard to get above an 80. . there is a book report but its work extra points even though he says its mandatory but not doing it wont effect your grade.

Professor Young is a really cool and funny guy. His exams are all open note, but the questions are mostly based off of his in-class lectures - not the textbook material - therefore, you need to make sure to take good notes while he speaks. Don't take his class if you're prone to skipping and zoning out during lectures.

This guy is so straight up and hilarious lol. He drops some funny lines often during his lectures and i just loved the way he said things. Only con about this class though is that i thought the tests were a little confusing since they didnt really reflect the notes. Other than that, the class is chill. listen and take notes from the powerpoint.

He is a nice guy but he is the worse teacher ever. The tests have nothing to do with the notes or his lectures. The tests are open notes but it does you no good because the notes he gives you have nothing to do with the tests. Don't take his class its boring and confusing!

His test aren't easy, so I do recommend doing the study guides. i reccomend taking the test in groups. its pointless to take notes because his lectures are behind, so you'll need the book. On the bright side, he's a nice teacher, if you attend class and participate you'll enjoy it. I recommend him though!! Hes oretty cool and funny.

This guy is very cool but his tests are not very easy. I got an A in the class but it was because I would take the test with two friends and all of us looking for answers in the book. So all in all he is ok but the tests are hard.

Personally, I found him to be a HORRIBLE professor. The work is tedious but not impossible. The tests are extremely difficult. The professor was not very helpful. He doesn't post your grades so you have no clue how you are doing in the class.

his jokes arent too funny but since he laughs at all of them it made me giggle. he is open minded and the exams were on angel about 10 questions each on a short amount of time. i passed with an A but it was a bit difficult. he does help if you need it.

Really nice guy but not helpful when it comes to the tests. None of the powerpoints he gives will help you on the test. There will be questions on the test that he covers AFTER you take it. Your only hope are the study guides and to read the chapters by yourself (which are very long). And he tends to go off topic a lot.

None of his powerpoints have anything to do with the tests. You could never go to class and still pass cause all you really need is the text book and the study guide he posts on ANGEL. Unless you have good self discipline to read those long chapters and make your own notes, don't take him. He's a really nice guy but not helpful at all.

I am taking this class independent and I find it to be quite difficult to complete all the written assignments for the study guides. I agree that a lot of the information on the test have nothing to do woth the study guides. He does offer extra credit essays and papers but with the amount of work with the study guides it is hard to do. Good Luck!

This was a pretty rough class with a heavy workload. The exams and papers seemed straightforward to me with the study guide, but there were days I was up late trying to finish. Writing is not my thing, so I don't think I could have had a better time in this class with any other professor. Recommended if you just want to get this class over with.

Good professor. Knows the material and teaches it well. Need to do the reading and know or learn how to write to do well, but it is a college class so if that were not so it would be a waste of time and money. Not easy but fair grader.

Professor Young is a trip, he makes the class the least boring possible! He's such a jokester, only thing is you have to read the book to pass the class. I chose to do the service learning assignment, which I didn't mind whatsoever. There isn't a point for attending class but he does count it against you. So I would! You won't be disappointed. GL!

Minus the tests in the blended-course. DO THE STUDY GUIDES. They really do help boost up your grade. and do ALL of it, not just the ones you were assigned to your group. Also just beware that some students take advantage over you and don't do crap, so do your work and do it right because he gives an excellent grade for your hardwork.

this professor is quirky and knowledgable. He has a great sense of humor and really wants you to pass. He tells history like a story and keeps you entertained. You have to go to class and unfortunately work in groups a lot. Be careful to be in a group with lazy students! I would definitely take him again as his test are straight from the class.

Professor young breaks you into groups then gives topic questions for each group. Then he explains everything at the end of class. He does not teach, you basically teach yourself. He gives 3 essays the whole semester which he grades extremely tough. Study guides are HORRIBLE. Absolutely nothing to do with the test. DO NOT take this guy trust me.

He gives 4 tests online which are identical to his study guides. 3 essays which are very simple about 500 words each. Attendance is mandatory and it helps your grade. Group presentations every week on one question from the study guide per group. You can get full credit for saying just 2 sentences. Amazing class. Interesting lectures. Easy A.

I personally think he's a great professor. You get placed in groups and are assigned one topic a week to discuss about. Everything you need to know is in the book. 4 tests with study guide topics. And finally 3 easy essays. I've taken him twice and I love his classes. His lectures are clear and easy to understand. Just read and you'll pass easy.

Good teacher. I just wish he would change he teaching style because he started assigning group projects which slowed down the class and I never really ended up learning much from them. I would rather ave him lecture and teach us about the history. Very interesting professor
