Really tries to prepare students for the work of broadcasting. A little overboard though possibly. Long weekly assignments.

There was a fairly unusual amount of work for a 100 level class. Directions were not hard to follow; he just grades harshly if you do not follow them. No tests in class, just turn in the assignments to get a good grade. Does not accept late assignments.

I have never studied so much as I did for this class.Although Dr. Newtons class was so hard and I hated it while I was in it, I learned allot from him and I am glad he challenged me.He is hard but he is human so if you need help talk to him he will help u

Professor Newton obviously knows his stuff and cares about the students. He always offers to help us out if we have trouble in the class. We have to work hard, but what do u expect? Take his class if you want to learn a lot. Slackers, beware!

Dr. Newton is a very good teacher, he does expect alot, but hey is always willing to help. He is one of the best teachers I have ever had, always happy to see you and if you ever need anything he will help.Be prepared to do your fair share of work!

Dr. Newton is a great professor. People complain there is too much work, but he gives you a schedule for the whole semester with more than enough time to do it, so there are no excuses. He always has time to answer questions, and is a really great guy.

He is a great professor,challenges you to do your best, takes any questions or concerns, helpful, always concerned with how you are doing. People complain that his class is hard but this is college not high school. If you would stop whining and do the work you can get a good grade. Highly Recomended

Don't listen to these ratings. People who left them were prolly mad because they didn't put in the effort. He's a wonderful teacher and genuinely cares about his students. Yes, there is a lot of work but it's a 300level COLLEGE class. Suck it up and deal with it. Study, pay attention, you'll be fine

Dr. Newton is a really nice guy, and an intelligent and talented proffesor, BUT his class is very difficult. The papers are long and the exams and quizes are even harder. Going into a 300 level class with Dr. Newton you must be prepared to do a lot of work for a mediocre grade.

One guy on here was in our film class complains but did nothing but sleep in class. One girl just tried to be cute. Others expect CMAT classes to be a blow offs. To get good grades from Newton, study and ask questions. I did. He's a good prof but he expects students to work. If you can't handle it go back to community college or get a job at McD's

Dr. Newton genuinely cares about his students. He wants them to succeed in his classes as well as overall and he will do everything necessary to help them do so. In return he expects that they will work hard and take their education as serious as he does. He's tough but there isn't a teacher out there like Dr. Newton. He's the best!

Anyone who trashes Newton is tripping - he tells us what to study, what to read, gives good examples, shows good videos, reviews the exams, tells us where to find the answers in the book and puts aside classtime to ask what we need to succeed. All you whiners - GET OUT OF OUR MAJOR AND GO BACK TO MOMMY!!

Bottom line - don't take Newton if you want an easy prof. He expects you to work hard, but he makes it easy by giving a lot of support. Some students were complaining because he wouldn't let them turn in late work. Grow up. They also expected him to be cute so they would like him. He's there to teach not entertain and he's VERY COOL. I read = A & B

Okay, Newton isnt a bad teacher. He gives you clear, typed directions and doesn't let you slack off (which college professors shouldnt) But, for a 100 class, he assigns too much. The same class w/a diff teacher was doing 1/3 of the work we did and learned the same things. Also,when I had a problem, he wouldnt understand or help me at all. Not a fan

Dr. Newton is one of the best professors that I have ever had. He is very well educated in each subject matter and most importantly cares about each student's education. He takes the time to explain what is expected and loves feedback. Although his class was difficult, at the end it was rewarding to know that you actually learned something.

This class was very hard and required a lot of work, but I did find most of the material intersting and i learned a lot. if you are looking for a BS class or an easy A dont take this class. I worked soo hard in this class and managed a B. The papers werent too bad, but the tests were definatley hard, you have to know every little bit of material

Great teacher, very helpful. If you are looking for an easy class and professor, don't take Newton. But if you want to learn and work hard he makes you feel good about doing so. He is the best professor that I have ever had, and really cares about students that put effort in.

Dr. Newton is the proverbial****. He doews make you work hard but it is not in vain. I have had him for another class and was not sure about him back then. After that I was sure he was a solid professor. I did poorly on exams and still managed a B in the class which shows his understanding of particular student needs and not one aspect.

Avoid taking this guy. Tests are impossible, He'll tell you one thing and do the next. By far the hardest tests Ive had in college. Only reason I took him was that the other classes were full.

Dr. Newton is a great guy, his class is difficult and you MUST READ AND STUDY. He will help you as much as he can and REALLY cares about his students. make papers clear and get proof read. I may not be an ace in the class...but he's still a very good and intellegent teacher

I'm taking his Unreality of Reality TV seminar. He is very nice, but this class is pretty difficult. You have to make sure to read and study. But the class is pretty interesting.

excellent teacher if your serious about school. if not, take something easy and don't waste your time. those who don't like him probably haven't done well in any other classes either

he is helpful and very clear about expectations. he's also respectful, fair about deadlines and a nice guy. he's not one of those profs who sucks up to students just to be liked, but you like him anyway. his tests are hard if you don't study. for serious students only

Expects students to do the readings, think critically & study hard, but if you do you'll be fine. Welcomes student feedback (neg, pos & suggestions for improvement), is very available to answer questions in class or meet individually. You'll be ok if you do lots of research, include your insight in papers & study everything. He's a nice prof!

You have to read the book because thats where he pulls the majority of his questions for tests. Lectures are pretty straight forward. Doesn't word test questions very well but adjusts grades accordingly. Good professor, would take another course with him

Ok so yea Newton is def a difficult teacher and yes his tests can be hard but he wants you to learn and be successful. If your not in college to earn a degree that one day you can use in real life ..cuz hate to break it to ya but once college is done real life begins.. then what are you doing?

ok no matter what anyone else says, this guy's class is unnecessarily hard. he asks for suggestions from the class to make it easier, but then shoots every idea down. he's a nice guy, but a rediculous teacher. he expects way too much and is so set in his ways that he won't change even if students are failing quizzes constantly. dont take him!

For a 110 class he is hard. uses power point. Students have to sign in to class. has online quizes (75pts) a midterm and a final which is worth 250pts!! so he is nice but a tough teacher.

I worked my ass off in Newton's class, somehow got an A, and it was the most rewarding grade I've ever recieved. This man is incredibly intelligent- I've learned so much that will forever help my career- he makes you utilize your knowledge. Posts thorough, interesting powerpoints. His quizzes are tricky but the 2 papers and final saved me.

Dr. Newton is one of my favorite teachers. He's a really nice guy, knows his stuff, and he expects a lot from you. Work hard and it's totally worth it. I plan to take more of his classes.

Newton is crazy smart. The guy has been teaching this stuff for nearly 2 decades.He really cares if his students understand the material. The Exams are insanely hard. Recommend him, just make sure your ready to bust your buttt. I feel like even if I don't get a required C in his class, the amount info i learned was well worth the ulcer that formed

You will lose points if you don't proofread your work carefully and make sure you have everything like you're supposed to have it. But that's just the way it is, and if you can proofread, then you can do very well in his class. I liked Newton. Very nice and caring man, respectful, lenient and gives a great handshake. Good man.

Usually a nice guy, but very tough grader. Makes attendance mandatory 100% of the time (not a single freebie). If you follow his directions *perfectly* you'll do fine, otherwise expect a lot of points taken off here and there. Does not accept any late work no matter what. Moderate workload, but some assignments take a really long time.

He started the semester making his course seem all tough and got a bunch of students to drop. But then he became an easier grader. As long as you do your work and stay on top of things, you should earn a good grade in his class. He is typically easy-going, but can be prone to moments of coming across as a bit smug.

Good guy, but serious about his job. Not to be taken if you're looking for an easy A - but you will learn.

First of let me just say that Newton is a great guy, and really knows what hes doing, however he is a very tough grader I had to drop his class because I failed his mid term, if you take this class you have to keep up with all the readings he assigns do that and you will pass I didn't do that and wish I did

Each class is different. 131 there can be no mistakes. Newton treats his students like employees. Punctuality is key. His upper classes aren't TOO difficult. I've take two in one semester and gotten Bs. You need to follow directions strictly, and apply what he says (even if sometimes you are feeling redundant). He also answes all questions, SO ASK!

People who trash Newton are usually terrible students. I know people who will blow off class, don't study with our group, fail online quizzes, and still expect to get a B. He is about business and treats us like adults - not kids. He also doesn't try to suck up to us and be our friends. He acts like the professor he is. Nice guy, too.
