Very enguaging, had great ways of explaining arguments and truth claims. I think he's Christian, but did a very good job presenting other world views. He was only part time when I took him though, so it may be hard to choose him by name.

A lot of papers to write but just as long as you give your opinion and back it up with the readings you will get a good grade.

Steele is probably the worst teacher I have ever had. He is a complete fraud.

Daniel Steele is truly a bastion of ineptitude. He politicized his classroom and confused major philosophical ideas. I love philosophy and in that hated this class. If you would actually like to learn anything, avoid his class as the plague. Yes, the papers and tests are easy, but to me it's not worth enduring his rigorous assault on logic.

Most of the class is Steele's lectures. Honestly, as long as you're there and copy down what he says- you'll pass the quizzes easily and additionally with the essays in which you just rephrase what he says and put in your own words. Didn't need the book and the most frustrating thing was that he seemed to reject opinions that weren't his own.

I don't know who gassed this professor, but he thinks he knows everything. He's a very tough grader and makes a simple Religion Elective like rocket science. I don't recommend taking him.

This instructor is very rigid in his thinking. For a philosophy class, he didnt allow much argument against his views. Some of his views are very problematic, such as climate change was invented by politicians for political purposes. He provided no support for this argument and expected us to go along. Was not open to debate.

All I had to do in his class was pander to his political biases to get a decent grade. He acted like his conservative views were so quirky. That being said I had a great laugh at all the nonsense he spewed. It's not to say that he's totally wrong on everything, because he made some great points about political correctness and multiculturalism.

Very nice professor. He is spot on with interpretations and teachings of the Bible - I learned a lot from his class. Lecture tests/unit papers are easy if you come to class and pay attention. I wish more college professors were like Mr. Steele.

at the beginning he is hard, you'll feel like you want to drop out & stuff but don't worry he gotchu. The way he teaches is little hard to understand & you might fail your first 2 essays but he will give you extra credits & stuff if you ask for it. He tries his BEST to help us but you can't really understand him but he is nice & cares about us so.

Skip class? You won't pass.

SHOW UP FOR CLASS AND LISTEN. Take notes on everything he says & type into essay format with own ideas added. Easy A, but if you do not do this then graded harshly. Talked the whole period everyday; participation is not needed. Graded entirely on essays that were due approximately bi-weekly. Understanding of special conditions.(PHILO1110&RELIG1150)

Wonderful teacher! Fairly easy class for me, but a 4-page average paper was required each week. If writing is not an issue, then you will pass this class with ease.

Professor Steele is an amazing professor! I took him for intro to religion this summer, and it is a super easy class. He only assigns a 3-4 pg essay paper on the units every other week. You must have MLA format mastered and answers the essay prompts to pass easily.

This professor constantly misrepresents arguments he disagrees with. He is internally inconsistent, and half of his lectures are offensive and a complete logical failure. As a business major it is mind boggling to me that he was given a philosophy job. I do not recommend him and will be filing a complaint to the school

His class is an easy A, rewrite what he rants about in class in your papers, while attendance is mandatory active participation is discouraged he interrupts and constantly misrepresents arguments he disagrees with. Don't take his class if you are interested in philosophy, otherwise, it is a very easy class.

Each week you have a paper to write, usually page 1.5 or 2 pages. If you have good comprehension skills the papers are easy to write. You only have papers, no quizzes or tests. He doesn't grade hard unless it's late he will take off points. This class was very interesting and I learned a lot. Easy class if you can keep up with due dates.

If you are looking to take this course for just a credit I recommend! Very straight forward class and professor. He is really nice and not strict on anything. 2 page assignment every other week for homework and that's it. No quizzes, or exams. Show up to class and do your assignments. Easy A.
