DO NOT take this professor, he is rude, inconsiderate and does not respond to emails. Do not trust the positive reviews, he is NOT a good professor. If you care about your GPA do not take him!

All his powerpoints were straightforward. All of the quizzes and discussions came from the powerpoints or a short reading, but they were easy. There is one small paper and one big paper to write, but he is an easy grader. Final is 40 questions timed 2 hours. 10/10 recommend his class, by far one of the easiest professors that I have had.

PLEASE RUN. This professor is not the professor you want for the introduction class. He grades as if you are taking a PhD level course. He was a very tough grader, and RUDE! I am glad this semester is done!

This professor is so serious about plagiarism!! Dont Try it! just do the work. Ask lots of questions he answers emails in within a couple ofdays. Follow the Syllabus everything you need to know is in there. At first I didnt care for him to much hes kinda rude but end of passing the class. Easy final just review all note and PowerPoints. Good luck

Class was generally easy, however, I did find one paper difficult to write. I asked multiple questions and professor Brown gladly answered all.

Professor Brown is amazing. I am an over thinker and pointed out some things that did not make sense and not once was I judged. There were 4 discussions, 1 quiz, 2 essays (3 paragraphs long), 1 research essay (three pages long). I found the essay difficult to write, however, I ended up getting an A. Other than that, this class is an easy A.

Professor Brown has a very a very simple online class. 3 discussions, 3 quizzes, 2 papers (which are very easy) and the final exam. He is an easy grader and is very helpful if you ask questions. His quizzes are based off of the ppts and readings and the answers are in the ppts and readings and sometimes he asks very simple questions.

Took Professor Brown for my summer mini semester and it was super easy. Opens all the assignments for you to work ahead. He explains everything very well on his Syllabus one of the best professors I've ever had.

Ok, I am not used to rate my professors because I don't really care BUT professor Brown is really easy. Do the homework, read the rubric for the two essays (really easy prompts), read the documents he provides before doing the quizzes and you will be easily getting an A

Easy class and it was a mini session I took which was 4 weeks. We worked on our own pace, just make sure to turn in every week's work Fridays on time. The quizzes we took after the pps were open note and so was the final exam. It was all easy and from the pps like literally. Also like 3 discussion posts that were super easy.

His lectures are PowerPoint-based and very well organized, making everything easy to understand. He grades quickly and gives fast feedback. I 100% recommend taking his class.
