No Comments
Likes to shmooze and entertain.
With a little work, this guy could polish up his stand-up routine and hit the road. He'd make a lot more money and would probably be a lot happier.
This is the most motivational instructor I have ever had the opportunity to listen to.
This was my favorite class all semester. Take this class because it is fun and Dr. Shjott is very good at what he does.
The best teacher I ever had. The class was fun and educational. Dr. Schjott made the class very interesting. He is an extremely helpful and intelligent instructor and I always looked forward to his class.
Learning has never been so fun. With his teaching style, you do not realize that you are in a classroom enviroment. The waqy he teaches you retain the information better. I highly reconmend him!!!
Very cool teacher
Schjott is HOT! Oh yea, I loved his class. Its by far made me change my major.. Thanks
I luv Dr. Shjott he is the best instructor at Owcc. He knows his stuff! Keep Up The Good Work!!!!!!!!!
This guy is funny as hell I wish he could teach any subject..
Very entertaining! Great instructor. Makes learning fun!
Very entertaining course and looking foward to taking social problems with him. Tests are easy.
Very good teacher, knows what he is talking about, makes the subject interesting and he is very enteraining in his teaching methods... He likes to joke around while he teaches you something... Great guy!!!
Dr Schojtt is a damn good teacher, who dont give a f**ck. He knows his material, and is very effective in getting his point across to the class in a very funny way.
Outstanding teacher. Extremely entertaining. Has great stories, you really do learn the material but you have a good time doing, what all classes should be like.
He's great, funny and really cool. Wants to help his students and the class is an easy A.
Very very good teacher. Easy to learn from, gives great examples. WOuld recommend to everyone. Very funny (big bonus). Overall- excellent teacher.
Class is absolutely hysterical and you learn the material at the same time. Class time flys by!! He's a great teacher and I enjoyed him thoroughly!! Kept me laughing long after class was over!!
He is interested in learning, not in testing. He covers the material and is very effective in teaching, but he makes it so fun. He applies what you learn to everyday life. He hates Bush and the war in Iraq, but he won't hold it against you if you disagree with him. He also has a HOT wife!
Makes class fun, and is hilareous! Actually learn things in class, but you dont even realize it till you take a test :)
Who doesn't love Dr. Schjott? He says what needs to be said, and teaches what needs to be taught. I can't help but respect him; he does his own thing and it surpasses any conventional methods. Getting taught by Dr. Schott is like getting taught by a hip Aristotle... comical and intellectual genius.
Really great professor. He's not out to fail you, he just wants you to walk away from the class a little more knowledgable than you were before. Tests are e-a-s-y. He's hardcore liberal but actually respects your opinions. You'll walk away from class laughing. Awesome guy.
DR. SCHJOTT IS THE MAN! Never wanted to miss class because it was just so interesting and fun. Hilarious man...haha. Loves class discussions and cares about his students. TAKE SCHJOTT!!
You're crazy if you don't take Schjott for this class. I wish all professors were like him. Not only did you have a ton of fun in class, but you learned and remembered things from that class. So you get something out of it. I miss that class and his crazy stories about him, wife, family, life. It was great. O the GOOD TIMES!! Miss you Schjott.
Dr Schjott is AWESOME!!..He makes class fun with his Comedian/Teaching Class!..hes a crazy little man, full of suprises. One of the Best Teachers I have ever had in College!..I recommend taking his class, you won't be disappointed. I would recommend him to Everyone!...*Kicks @ss*
SCHJOTT IS AMAZING!! One of the best teachers I have had at OWC. Knows his stuff and is very open to everyting. Very interested in you as a person and you passing his class. TAKE HIM!!
Dr Schjott is the best professor so far. His Sociology distance learning class is great. If you don't get an "A" you are legally STUPID. I wrote my essays 30 minutes before sending them to him - and got all A's.
Excellent teacher! Really makes you interested in the material. Presents the information in a way you understand it and RETAIN it! Actually sat up and listened in his class! A+ teach!
Took him during the summer...easiest class ever! Great guy, actually teaches, very funny...worked his "mojo" and basically set me up with my boyfriend during class we've been dating over a year now (he's got the 1st invite to the wedding). Take him!!!
Escellent teacher...great to take and easy too
AMAZING!! Hardcore libral but will listen to everyones opinion openly. Dirty mouthed but he is so funny. Never wanted to miss a single class even when I was sick. Take him for whatever you can!! Oh, and no clorax wipes are not okay to use on your baby. HAHA!!
not as easy as i had thought, i got a B, his tests include 50 questions T or F, so its easy in that fact, but hes a great teacher...you'll be laughing all semester
Best class ever you have to study fo his tests, even though they are T/F. He should be a stand up comic loved the class if you take notes you wont need the book. LOVED IT!
He gets off dubject alot. Waste alot of time. Gives some good information, but seems pointless to even go to class except test days. makes some vulgar/humorous comments on everything from religion to politics. very left! little morals. claims to have HOT wife yet loves the buffet!
Great teacher. Very humorous but gets the lesson across. Would love to take again.
Great teacher, always keeps you laughing. Kinda dirty but overall a nice guy. Would love to take his class again
The GREATEST teacher ever! I just adore this man. His lectures are a blast. I think he could make any topic fun. If there were more teachers like him more people would be in college. Take any class of his you can you will learn and have a great time doing it. Keep up the great work.
it is a very easy class all you need to do is go to class and listen to him and get A from the class he is very nice person he makes jokes a lot i would take another class of him if i needed one.
The Dude rocks! Made everything seem simple. Just study your notes and everything will fall inot place. Tests are note driven. Makes alot of comments that might be considered vulgar, but he wants you to discuss the topics in class--if you don't you will be writing for the entire hour. He is the best for intro to sociology.
Really easy instructor!
Very awsome teacher, will keep you interested and laughing the whole time. Study your notes and you'll do great.
easy A class. just do the work and you will get an a. i took it distance learning and it was one of the easiest DL classes i have took. would recommend
very easy class al you need to do is go to class and listen to him he gives take home exams and he helps a lot , easy A he is cool guy
very easy and makes the class interesting! i would take another class with him again!

Dr. David Schjott is probably the best college instructor I have had. He really seems to connect to his students and makes everyone really want to go to class. I would recommend taking him for as many classes as possible.
online course; straightforeward, and clear
The greatest teacher ever!
Take this class. easy and interesting. dave's a cool guy
An extremely open minded, highly intelligent, caring instructor. The classes hosted by Dr Schjott are of high caliber. His lectures are truly life changing. We need more instructors like him. Don't expect an easy class, you must attend religiously and produce quality work. If you seek Enlightenment, then Dr Shjott is for you.
great teacher!with the exception of Remsburg I have never had a more open minded instructor while at OWC. This is one of those classes where you really "learn" instead of just memorizing for the test, and it's completely painless.
Dr.Schjott is the best teacher that I have had a OWC so far he makes the material fun and interesting. I have learned soooooooooooooo much in his class. Take him in as many classes as possible. HE IS AWESOME!!
Dr Schjott not only changed my life, but he saved it. Prior to taking his class I was lost, and had no sense of direction. His lectures offered not only motivation, but clarity. I honestly feel that I have, in a sense, been reborn, into a new life. Open your mind, Open your heart, and venture into Dr Schjott's class. You won't regret it. Amen.
Dr. Schjott was a spectacular star studded professor!!!!! i loved his class and he keeps even the most wondering minds interested. Love him!!! -thaaaaaattsss Craaaaaaaaaaap!!!! ***drop your kids off at school "beep beep"***
This is the one that truly stands out. I loved this professor. This man is meant to be a teacher. He really knows his stuff and the way he lectures makes you want to listen. He is captivating, informative, and very approachable. It is hard to deny that the most influential professor at OWC, lectures on the most important subjects of our time.
I took him online for SYG2010 and he was awesome. He does "Contract grading." During orientation you chose the grade you want and do that grades work. I chose an A, had to meet the 4000 word requirement but the papers, he said he wants my opinion and it's not like research. No mid-term, only a final that was T/F def. Great teacher!
His classes are like listening to a great story rather than a prepared lesson. Go expecting to act like and be treated as an adult. This was one of the most valuable class I have taken during college. This course should be a required. Extremely well prepared lectures, interesting and engaging material. Coolest teacher at OWC!
Best teacher ever! if you can schedule his class back to back Intro to Sociology and Social Problems DO SO! His Test are easy if you just listen to him his papers are easy also. last thing.. 50? T or F are the only test you will see in this class... Happy A+++
Took him for "Family and Society" distance learning. Awesome teacher, very nice/understanding & knowledgable. Great teacher, would love to take a class in-person w/him. Highly Recommended
Awesome teacher, He is very knowledgable. His classes are a blast and he is just a joy. As long as you listen and write down what he does you'll do great.
One of the best teachers ever! Every class was like a stint on comedy central, and you actually learn interesting valuable info, take him for every class you can!!!!!
I took him for sociology, he was great. He talked about crazy stuff alot, including his wife the hotty, but overall his class was easy to go to..he was very nice and taught his stuff well. GREAT Professor and bb with Dr. Barker~~take him
Dr. Schjott's is a very fair and courteous teacher. Believes everyone starts out with an A in his class and wishes everyone to pass. As long as you take notes and study you will pass his class with flying colors. I would recommend him for any class.
This class was really easy. He does the contract grading for his students. You pick the grade you want, do what that grade requires and you get that grade. It was a bunch of writing. But the writings were very easy. Mid term and Final were just definitions. I took this class DL... highly recommend it. Piece of cake!
Very funny I laughed every class!
Amazing professor one of the best I ever had.
I highly recommend Dr.Schjott! I loved his class never borning! Def. an easy A if you study!!
Schjott makes the class very interesting
amazing teacher, everyone should take his class at least once. i actually wanted to fail the class so i could take it again. he is the most hillarious teacher you can ever have. his life stories are make you laugh so hard you feel like your gonna die.
Love Dr. Schjott! He is a great teacher and is class is so entertaining. Tests are easy if you study his notes.
This is one of the best professor's anyone could ask for. Yes, the class is easy, but I learned so much too. There are a lot of class discussions, so he knows who actually comes to class.
Great Teacher,Easy class,Dr,Schjott makes his class really fun amd enjoyable
Wonderful teacher. I would suggest to anyone if you want to learn and understand the subject in a good atmosphere take any class with this insructor and your money will be very well spent!
wonderful!!! Absolute riot!!! Any class with him would be worth the $. Makes te material "CLEAR AS MUD!!""His favorite saying.
sjhott was amazing!! class is pretty much class discussions with notes thrown in. we had such a good time discussing what we thought in class!! he such a riot...never had so much fun learning! take him!!
This class was extemely easy. Show up, take notes, get an A. I found that there was plenty of interesting material in the text book we never got to. Guess that's about par for an "intro" class.
Creative, thought provoking and on top of that, entertaining! The learning is fun. Contract grading, you set your own goals and grade. Fill the squares, get the grade. Most enjoyable!!!
dr schjott really helped me make sense of sociology...in fact his class was so much fun that i decided to minor in sociology
Keeps class fun and light. He is very informative and knows the subject very well. Highly recommend for Sociology and Social Problems.
Awesomeeee. Keeps class entertaining, but interesting and knows a lot about the subjects he teaches. Take him IN CLASS for both Sociology and Social Problems.
Great teacher, out going and fun to be in his class. Easy to learn fun if your not the brightest in the bunch. Good class had fun.
Dr. Scjott is an amazing teacher. Hiss sociology class was the best class I ever took. He relates to the students and makes his classes very fun. You can tell he really believes in what he teaches. Perfect example of an awesome leader!!!
Dr. Schjott is the best professor that I have ever had. I keep telling my husband that HE HAS TO TAKE THIS CLASS. This class was so interesting and fun! I could not wait til Wednesday night! You HAVE TO TAKE THIS CLASS! As someone mentioned before, he was BORN TO TEACH--the best class..hands down!
By far the coolest teacher I've ever had. Him & Dr Barker make the best social science professors at OW
Great teacher! I took this fast track during the summer and it was great. A laid back attitude and great personality. Lectures where very interesting I swear I laughed until I cried more then once. He does contract grading, you decide how much work you want to do and that's the grade you'll get. I took the A and the work was still real easy.
Dr. Schjott is an amazing teacher! I took his Sociology class in the spring and enjoyed it so much, I opted to take his Social Problems class this coming semester. He's personable and funny, and makes the material easy to understand. As corny as this sounds, he makes learning FUN. I never missed a single day of class. I DEFINITELY reccommend him.
This was a GREAT class.. sadly it went TOO fast! Did the blended class, 1 night a wk, and all tests were take home tests.. all but the midterm and the final, which were straight from lecture, and the other 5tests were from the book -- so you for sure need the book and DON'T wait til the last minute to do the 5tests, they are time consuming!
(cont. rating!) I really enjoyed this class, and Dr Schjott, he's hilarious! I've even thought about changing my Major now that i've had a little taste of sociology! if you're going to take a class Dr Schjott teaches, and not take HIM you are a FOOL!!! thanks Dr Schjott.. (go obama)
Had him last semester, I feel like he's very judgemental if you have opinions on an sort of politics or issues in the world. Its whatever though, its an easy class. I had him for social prob and sociology, one class right after the other. He's really funny, ask him about his **** song.
Easy class. Basically just a lot of writing papers.
Bomb Diggity Bomb! He is the coolest teacher! I wish he taught every subject! I've taken him for social problems, sociology, and family of society. I'm not even a psychology major but I took his course for an elective because he's understanding, has a great teaching style, and I learned a lot! Everyone loves him!
You'll LOVE him he makes class easy to attend and you actually like to go!!!! I learned a lot in his class and will take him again for any other classes he teaches.
awesome teacher i had him for social problems hes easily ranked the best professor ive ever had
Awesome, simply awesome. I've had Dr. Schjott for all 3 of the classes he teaches (SYG 2000, SYG 2010, and SYG 2430) and I've loved them all. I'm sad that this semester is coming to an end simply because I won't be able to take any more classes with Dr. Schott. To state the obvious, take any (or all) of his classes and you won't be disappointed!!!
Great teacher never laughed somuch in a college class.
I hated for Dr. Schjott's classes to end. He is incredible, helpful, fun, and no topic is out of bounds. If you can fit him in to your schedule AT ALL, do it. He is worth so much more than they could ever pay him.
Took his class online and it was easy breezy, weezy. As long as you complete your assignments and read your books, this class is just the easiest A ever.
He is the best teacher I have ever had! He is so funny. I don't think I stopped laughing the entire class. He makes his class fun, with stories and jokes. There are two test and they are easy. No homework. Just 5 take home test due at the end of the semester. He is an amazing teacher.
Took Social Problems online with him. You sign a contract for the letter grade you want at orientation, and the only different between grades is the amount of papers you write. I contracted for an A, and it wasn't difficult at all, but somewhat time consuming. Wrote 6 small papers, a mid-term paper and exam, and the final was in person. Easy A!
HE IS FUNNY! He had many bunny trails as I call them and you learn stuff but not what you would think. Have lots of papers to write but he doesn't grade too hard! Want an easy A? Take him!! We only had one test!
Coming into this class I did not know what to expect BUT I absolutely loved this class. He is an AWESOME teacher!! I wish all of my professors could be as entertaining as him! I learned so much and enjoyed, looked forward to his class every week. One of my favorite sayings, he would always say, "Clear as mudd."
Great Teacher!
Dr. Schjott is the best teacher I have had yet! I wouldn't miss his class for anything!I am sad that this class has to end! I recommend this class to anyone!!!
A very flexible teacher that makes the class interesting. You learn more than you realize just from participation in his class. He respects every student and you can tell he truly enjoys teaching. He is very fair and gives you plenty of ways to make a good grade. Wish I could take another class under him.
Loved his humor, class went by super fast. If you go to class u dont need ur book. Attendance is mandartory but u wouldnt even wanna skip this guy's classes. He uses some of his funny analogies on his test so its important to go to class. Great guy, loved him. He doesn't talk down to you or anything like that. Great professor!
AWESOME TEACHER!! Awesome class. Awesome everything
If you are in the military or a military spouse I would not take his class. He has a lot of negative opinions about the military and has no trouble voicing them. He told the class that the military thinks of their soldiers as no more important than trucks or equipment. And this is just the beginning. I was very personally offended in this class.
Prof. Schjott was awesome. My class time was fairly early in the morning and i'm not a morning person but knowing that when I went to class it would be entertaining and I would be able to learn what I needed to made me want to be there, bright and early. I would definitely take any class of his he made it so easy to actually learn the material.
GREATEST TEACHER EVER! TAKE HIM FOR ANYTHING! He makes the class very fun and interesting. He is a very funny guy. You would not want to miss a class. The textbook is used very rarely (could get by without one).
HE'S OUTRAGEOUS! LOVED HIM!! So sorry I had him for a short session. He made those 8 monday nights I had with him in the spring some of the BEST!
I took Dr. Schjott in 07' for Sociology, and loved him so much, I took him again in 08' for Social problems. I'm an A-/B+ student. The class is pretty much all discussion (you jot down notes as you go). You really get into the discussions, and he makes learning the material worth your while. And, the material is relevant to everyday life. Loved it!
I definitely recommend his class to anyone. His lectures are always fun and entertaining, but you learn a lot too. Also, his tests are relatively easy if you study your notes. (All your questions on the test are directly from your notes you write.) I can't imagine a better teacher for Sociology.
Absolutely hilarious! I loved his class. I am a dual student, and this was my first college class, and I was somewhat nervous about it...but no worries. Tests come straight from the notes, everything is written on the board. All tests are true/false, and there are 5 homework assignments. Just wish I had him longer! Take him!
Dr. Schjott is an amazing teacher! He definitely loves what he teaches. He is an easy teacher to make you fall in love with the subject. the class is easy, you take notes all the way through and enjoy the occational humor! His tests are fairly easy T/F. You do have to write 7 papers but you they're not due until the last class. Highly reccommended!
Amazing Teacher!
Dr David Schjott is a really good teach! He loves what he does and it shows. He's very funny, and keeps the class interesting. His class is very simple. The only thing you have to do is show up and take notes.. I have never had an easier class. He's great at what he does!!!
My favorite teacher, he was so fun.
I took Dr. Schjott 3 times because I loved him so much. When I first started college I was a nursing major, I took his Intro class and loved him so much I am now a Social Science major.
He is such a good teacher! his lectures are always interesting. he is so laid back and makes the clas enjoyable. easy A
Took Sociology online with him. You have to write a LOT of papers if you contract for an A. Six 500-750 word mini-papers, four 3-5 page mini-research papers (with refrences), as well as 100 mid-term definitions and an in class T/F defintion Final. Wasn't hard, just a ton of busy work. Take him IN CLASS...unless you love writing papers, I guess.
Awesome teacher!! I actually want to get up early to go to this class!
I actually want to get up early to go to this class!
Dr. Schjott is very funny and teaches really good. His tests are freakin easy, all true and false! You have to go to class which is okay cuz his lectures are fun to listen to, but you might be offended by some of the stuff he says. Overall he is really great, but if your over sensitive to political/religious issues I would not take it.
Took ONLINE. if you contract for an A be prepared to write ALOT!! A relective essay, 6 writing assignments and 4 essays! Then midterm is 100 definitions from the book. Haven't taken the final yet but am SO RELIEVED to be done with all of the assignments because I contracted for an A. It was constantly in the back of my mind but overall is do-able.
Great teacher! Learning was fun in his class!
The best teacher ever!So funny smart and realistic!Took short session - only 5 weeks for almost 4 hours a time. His stories and comments are so funny and made class so interesting!
I took him for sociology and social problems. Gives me a reason to come to school. The best teacher i've ever had
He's an amazing teacher, he's super funny and his class is a piece of cake. If you're going to take sociology don't do it online. Theres 10X the amount of work to do online and in class you have lecture and tests.. and all his tests are true or false. You'd have to be a idiot to fell ..
Took him for both Sociology and Social Problems. Fun class, super easy. Show up, listen, laugh, join in on debates, and ace the tests. One of the most fun classes Ive taken in a while. EASY A.
I had Dr. Schjott for Sociology, and I plan on taking him for Social Problems! As long as you show up for class, take notes, and listen you'll do fine! He is really funny, and keeps everybody interested in the subject matter. You'll want to go to his class, I never missed any of his lectures! Take him!
by one of the best teachers i have taken. He is histarical! Dr.Schjott makes you want to come to class. He gives true/false test which are simple. His lectures keep you interested and the class discussion are great. By far the best class ive taken at NWFSC. No need for a book, just take notes. Super easy class with ateacher that keeps you laughing!
AWESOME! I took his course distance learning and Schjott was amazing. His classes are based on a contract grading system in which YOU decide your grade and you work towards it by the amount of work you do. Schjott's class is worth your time and money, as he is upfront with his expectations.
Very interesting class, I took the distance learning course. Quite a few papers to type but all based off your opinions and experiences, so there really is no "right" or "wrong" answer. Your grade is determind by the work you do. Easy final, you just need to keep up with key terms. Very helpful and good about replying to emails by the next day.
Dr schjott is an awesome teacher
Ok, this guy rox. He's totally legit. I'd take him over again. Just couldn't wait to write an awesome review of him. He's purty awesome.
I took your class in August to October of 2003. I received my AAS degree from former OWCC (NWFS). You are one of the best instructors I have ever had but could not remember how to spell your name till I reviewed my records :) Cheers. ~ U Rock!
I love him and his classes! Ive taken him for sociology and social problems, which I didnt even need! He is very interesting and knowledgable. His classes are evry fun!
Awesome awesome professor and guy. I took him in the 2006-2007 school year for three sociology classes. He's the one that sparked my love of sociology. (I changed my major to Sociology after taking his class & now I'm about to graduate).
Im an average student and made amazing grades. Easy A. Keeps class laughing and give universal examples to help students understand. He won Teacher of the year multiple times. :)
Keeps the atmosphere light and students interested.. universal examples are used to help you understand..very knowledgeable on a variety of topics.... outstanding teaching methods..
he is a great professor. Very funny, and u will enjoy the class
I took Dr. Schjott's class online and we had to sign contract for our grades. I signed up for an A, so as long as I did the work and made over a 60 on my final I would and did get an A.. so WOOHOO! Easy A, you actually learn alot. I'm happy wih my experience with my first online class.
This guy is great. Shuld have been a stand-up comedian. Very good teacher.
Fantastic teacher, smart and hilarious. Learned so much and enjoyed so much, I changed my major to Sociology.
Great teacher! Funny and very understanding. Make sure you turn in all your quizzes at the end of the class or your grade will be dinged.
Amazing teacher! I loved listening to him talk. I sat up front and so he would always pick on me, but I didn't mind!He should totally be a comedian!
Sociology with Schjott is the greatest class I have ever taken.He is funny, he knows how to get everyone in the mood for learning, and he makes the most of the class seem to enjoy what he is teaching.
Dr Schjott is awesome! He keeps the subject very interesting and is hilarious. I understand Sociology more now with his help:)
Awesome
AMAZING PROFESSOR LOVED GOING TO HIS CLASS. TESTS ARE DIRECTLY FROM NOTES. DR.SCHJOTT IS VERY FUNNY AND GIVES REAL WORLD EXAMPLES TO EXPLAIN MATERIAL. LOVED HIS CLASS AND WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE! ID TAKE HIM AGAIN IF I COULD!!
THE EASIEST TEACHER YOU ILL EVER TAKE. ALSO KEEPS YOU LAUGHING ALL THROUGH CLASS!!
Took Dr.Schjott for Sociology and I forgot what the other class was!lol But he's def the best Professor ever!
Very interesting class. Great real life examples that were easy to understand. I enjoyed this class very much. Highly recommend!!!
Just finished with his class, he is extremely outgoing, and can make anyone laugh. He makes what he is talking about real life problems. would def recommend him. as long as you study your notes, you will pass.
You have to take Dr.Schjott ! He is absolutely hilarious and such a joy to learn from. Social Problems was not a challenging class, just go as often as you can and take down all the notes and you'll do great on the tests. They're all true or false.
Schjott is an amazing teacher!! He makes this class zoo much fun. I took fast track during the summer and the 5 take home tests(straight form the book) and 4 paragraphs(opinion papers) were due on the last day of class. All simple. The 3 in class tests. He is interested in his subject talkative class helps. Definitely taking another class with him.
So easy to understand makes class fun!
One of the best professors NWFSC has! He is humorous and yet always on topic and loves class discussion. the whole class is hands on. 50% of your grade are take home tests which the answers are right there in the textbook. His in class tests are also easy as long as you restudy your notes. A real breath of fresh air. I highly recommend!!!
taking this class online over the summer. super easy class. you have to read the chapters take 5 quizes and a final also answer discussion questions. easy A
Amazing professor!!! Dr. Schjott is hilarious and will definitely keep you entertained and engaged!!! Easy class and very easy to comprehend!!! TAKE HIM!!!
Took his DL Social Prob class. Awesome. Simple requirements + low stress= time to read/study and learn the material. Great class to take with harder courses. Wish all classes were like this!!
Easy A. Writing assignment that requires you to use the textbook completely. 5 take-home tests that use the book are worth 50% of your grade. 3 in class tests and a 20 question final.
Dr. Schjott is very knowledgeable about the subject that he teaches! He is my mentor in social work and you will learn a lot from his teaching style which is relaxed, yet highly-informative.
I love Dr. Schjott. I'm sad that I've taken all of the classes he teaches already. His in class tests are directly from his lectures and if you feel he didn't thoroughly cover a topic asked he will gladly help with the answers. Very knowledgeable in his field!
Amazing. That is all that needs to be said.
Dr. Schjott's tests are straightforward & concise, and the lectures are fun & engaging. It's a low-effort and stress-free A, not because he hands them out for free, but because he really, REALLY knows how to teach. The class is so much fun, leaving it is a disappointment.
Best professor I have ever had. He is clear about what you need to know and makes the class fun. He never usually keeps you there for the full class time. Also super hilarious. I have had him for three classes and would recommend him to anyone.
His class is really easy with 3 tests, no comprehensive final, and 1 7 paragraph essay. He's really funny in class and makes class interesting however I found him to be very unhelpful. I emailed him a simple question and received a snotty answer a day later.
I am stuck in this class now and am very happy. If I have to hear about his personal life 1 more time I am going to scream. I think at one time he was a good instructor. I wish I would have taken another syg2000 class.
I really enjoy this class. Dr Schjott is hilarious and knows his stuff. No homework or textbook, so don't waste your $ on it. One 7 paragraph opinion paper, but he graded xtremely harsh for an OPINION paper. 3 50 question T/F exams. Taking him for Social Probs this summer. I recommened!
Very funny, very easy. Tests are T/F and come straight from the notes. About 20% of class is actual note-taking, 80% is him telling funny stories. Never used the textbook, so don't go buy one.
Dr Schjott is an amazing teacher. I high recommend this class to everyone. Hes supper funny and he can relate anything to a funny story.
Super easy class. I made A's on all of my tests. Straight from the notes. Never really needed the book.
funny, enjoyable, fun, and easy going.. his teaching is fun and we all get into conversations about anything..one bad thing is he talks about his personal life too much but continues to stay on topic though.. i highly recomend him for sociology
Awesome teacher. Tells a lot of jokes, which helps keep things interesting during an hour and a half lecture. Almost always ends class early. Book not really needed, he'll tell you at the beginning of the semester if it will be required or not. Great teacher overall
Great Instructor, Very enthusiastic about his instructing and funny. I would recommend Dr.Shjott to anybody.
best teacher! You will enjoy his class. You never want the class to end
I loved his lectures. He kept the class interested and let everyone speak and give their own opinion about the subject that he was teaching. Great class, great professor. I recommend Dr. Schjott to any student.
The syllabus is very front loaded, so you may feel overwhelmed for the first few weeks. DO NOT GET BEHIND WITH READING! Heavy textbook use, a few tests, and several papers. He is a funny, helpful, and nice professor, but be prepared to work HARD at this level of class for your grade.
The teacher keeps you up to date. He's a little slow on emailing but he's extremely helpful if he does get back to you! The class is super easy. It is best to read on the subject before taking quizzes because they can be really detailed. I highly recommend taking this teacher!!
Good professor. He's enthusiastic which helps. Tests are all T/F and lecture driven, so don't miss class. If you study your notes, you'll make an A. Could be more encouraging of open debate about issues, instead would acknowledge what you said and move on. (This was also a five week course though, so that might be different for other classes)
This was one of the best instructors at Troy. He is very prompt and organized. His style of teaching inspires you to want to learn. I would take him as many times as possible
Awesome teacher!!! He keeps class interesting. Everything is pretty straight forward and if you take notes you will do great. BY far the best instructor I've had since attending NWFSC.
Took it online. Very simple course. Just read the chapters. It's all in the book. All test and exam open book.
This class was an easy "A", and an extremely fun class. While Dr. Schjott spends most of the class telling hilarious jokes, I also learned a lot from the class. Tests are lecture driven and 50 t/f, and while I thought he graded the powerpoint (no presentation, just turn in a hard copy) a little tough, I received an A+. Definitely would recommend!
I took both of his Sociology Classes, SYG2000 in class and SYG2010 online. Passed both with A's. Take good notes, show up for lectures and pay attention. Online class is open book, you still need to read the text to pass. But overall great class! Taking his Family and Society Class online this summer.
This professor is awesome. He keeps you interested in the class discussion but never overloads you with work to where you loose interest in anything. He recently got a divorce and his on going jokes about it has kept us all entertained. There is 3 tests a power point presentation and 5 online assignments. Easy A as long as you do work and study.
Eek, never taking an online course again. I think I may have just barely passed, but it's a close one. I love mr Schjott, I had him before for a different class, it's unfortunate I had to take this course online. It's not bad I suppose though, I've never taken an online course. If possible though, definitely take this class in person! worth it!
Dr. Schjott is a very entertaining guy. He makes class enjoyable and is very funny. However, if you are actually looking to learn something, don't take him. If you need an easy class, then feel free to take him.
Easy A! He was very funny and made class fun and entertaining! Highly recommend taking this class! Kept my attention the whole time and I learned a lot!
Easy A. Great class to take for an extra credit. Takes a while for him to respond to emails but other than that he was a very nice teacher.
Sometimes says he doesn't receive work that you turned into him. His grading isn't bad. He is a little short when responding to emails and quite unhelpful.
Dr. Schjott is a very funny teacher, and his lectures are always interesting and super funny. He is a nice teacher that cares about his students. The tests are easy as long as you show up to class and pay attention. I would recommend this class to anyone!!
Very awesome teacher!! He's super funny and friendly, class really isn't too mandatory. You don't need the book. Would highly reccomend this class to anyone!
He was awesome! I loved every minute of his class!
Great teacher!!!! His online classes are straight forward and you can work ahead. I wish he taught every class offered.
I took his online Sociology class. It was very straightforward and was geared towards the working college student. He gives you ample time to complete the assignments and all are relatively easy if you study at all. I'd say it's an easy A or B class even without reading the book. Make sure assignments are done on time and you'll pass easily.
You are amazing instructor Mr. Schjott. I recommend this instructor for sociology class, he made his lecture fun and interesting and learn at the same time. I wish he teach different classes too :-( i would definitely take him again.
Dr. Schjott is the best teacher I've ever had. He is absolutely hilarious and and always keeps you interested. As long as you kinda try in class, you'll easily pass. I literally didn't try at all and got an 88. Take this professor. P.S. We watched Gangnam Style, Chicken in a biscuit, and other stupid things in class. LOVED this class.
Dude, this dude is awesome. He is funny and very passionate about what he teaches. Pretty easy grader, but don't slack because that ain't nice. All tests are true... and also false.
I was interested in Sociology but Schjott did make the class fascinating,and I didn't mind the projects that he assigned.
He's an amazing professor. Is always open for class discussion and encourages it. I would recommend him and take both of his classes!
I looooved DR. Schjott. He is hilarious! Some lectures are full class length, others are quicker. He always hand writes notes on the board and then lectures about them. His tests are 50 questions T/F only. Seems scary but they are actually very straight forward, if you go to classes you'll be fine. Modules are required, and are a pain!
Amazing teacher. Would suggest 10/10. Tests are easy if you take notes in class and he has a story for all his lectures. This is the teacher you want for Sociology. I took a slight gamble in taking him at another campus just to fit my schedule and didn't regret a single thing.
I was hesitant about taking it online at first since everyone raved about his in-person lectures, but it was equally educational online! There's an easy graded quiz that counts for half of your grade every other week , 2 painless essays , an exit exam, and an insanely easy final that you only need 20 second to look over the study guide. Easy A!
One of my favorite teachers! Will be taking him in the fall semester for social problems!
great class
Im taking his intro class online but 4 weeks in, and I am extremely disappointed. I might as well have taken it in person because I spend every single day having to read for hours on end in order to keep up with the quiz's due each week. The class itself would be easy but the way he words the quiz makes it way more difficult than it needs to be.
This guy is AWESOME! Took him for social problems and Sociology! LOVED his online class!
this teacher is full of fun and open minded! he would talk about anything you want to discuss about. he have extra take home tests, so it'll help you with your class grade.
Absolutely recommend taking any class you can with Dr. Schjott. Easily one of my favorite professors. He's funny, entertaining, and very knowledgeable about all the subjects. I took him twice and loved both classes. He's flexible and works with you. Do the work, study at least a litte, and pay attention in class and you'll do great.
I truly look forward to his class! He's hilarious and really keeps the class interesting.
Absolutely loved this teacher, i voted for him for teacher of the year! Grading: 4 true-false tests, completion-grade online hw, a powerpoint & an exit exam. He is funny and keeps lectures short/interesting. 99% of the test material is from his lectures so make sure to go to class. Extra credic opp to add 10 points to final grade: 80% turns to 90%
Dr. Schjott is amazing! Not only is his class an easy A, it's also really interesting and you do learn a lot. He is absolutely hilarious, and makes all of the material very simple. His tests are 50 true/false questions that come directly from his lectures. As long as you show up and take decent notes, you should get an A, and have a fun time!
He's funny and the class is super easy. If you do not get an A then it is your fault
Excellent professor. Recommend to any freshman entering college. Lectures are very thought provoking. Presentation style helps to make class fun.
Dr. Schjott was the best teacher I had this semester. His lectures are fun ad interesting!
I cannot say enough about Dr. Schjott! He is extremely passionate about his work and loves his job. While attendance isn't mandatory, his tests are 95% lecture based. He has been my favorite professor out of my whole college experience thus far.
Dr. Schjott is one of the funniest and most engaging professors that I have had. He makes the material make sense with real life examples. His lectures are hilarious!!! Take notes and study, you will be fine. He explains everything you need to know. Textbook only really needed for online modules part of the class. Taking him again next semester!
Don't waste money buying the textbook because you wont need it. Great glass and a great teacher. Probably the best and funniest teacher I have ever had. Recommend this class to anyone going to college.
Did 10 modules on connect for homework . We had a powerpoint due towards the end of the semester. Didn't use the textbook. Take good notes and listen. Teacher is humorous and great. Tests are true or false. There are three tests and an exit exam. There is a study guide for the exit exam. A lot of extra credit given. Great class.
I've taken Intro to Sociology and Social Problems and I'd describe Dr. Schjott's class as integral to the NWFSC experience. His attitude towards the subject, the school, and his students sets the precedent for our school. Take. This. Class.
I loved Dr Schhott's class! As long as you do the work you will pass without a problem.
Most of the test material comes straight out of the lectures, so pay attention and take notes. If you aren't in class you will miss some of the material, but he doesn't really care if you are there or not. He's funny and real, so it makes the class seem easy. Lots of common sense will help with his classes.
I took his class online and it was a easy class. I wished more professors were out to help you succeed like he does!!!
Fair teacher and will give you every opportunity to pass his class with an A. Take the notes he writes on the board, which is not a lot, study them over, and you will most certainly make an A.
Honestly one of the best professors I've had in a long time. Dr. Schjott is really funny, relatable, caring, interactive, engaging, and makes lectures fun to listen to. He makes things interesting and enjoyable. He likes talking to his students about the subjects and get their opinions and ideas on the material, makes sure they understand.
Dr. Schjott is hands down one of the best professors at NWFSC. He is kind, fair, and very intelligent. He truly cares about every single one of his students and makes you feel welcome in his class. I always want to go to class because he is so funny. Take every class you can with this man. You won't regret it!!
Dr. Schjott really cares for his students. He is very passionate about what he does. He teaches more in a conversational way than a lecture, and he is hilarious. Best professor by far that I've taken.
Dr. Schjott is a great teacher, he offers extra credit by donating to the food pantry. I took him for a hybrid class of social problems, so we have 3 in class tests, 4 mini essays online, 5 discussion boards online and 4 take home takes. I didn't use the book at all during the semester, I didn't even by it.
Hes a great teacher that simplifies what hes talking about and even beyond that so his students understand, mixing humor into a lot of his lectures as well.
Dr. Scjott is really helpful. The class is interesting. Make sure you read and take notes on the information.
Schjott's a fave prof at NWFSC; he's funny, whip smart, and unafraid to challenge his students inherent ideologies by playing devil's advocate during class discussions. He usually only assigns online modules bookwise, so if you're motivated you can finish those up within your free trial and skip having to purchase the text. 10/10, would take again.
I'm still in Dr. Schjotts class currently and absolutely love it! He is the funniest professor and makes class enjoyable, so you won't even want to skip. He knows what he's talking about when it comes to the subject matter and makes it interesting and relevant to today. Hopefully I'll have more classes to take with him in the future.
I love Professor Schjott.
He is an amazing teacher, there is not a lot of work in the class. He is hilarious and gives entertaining lectures.
Great class and easy to learn.
Easy class! Awesome Lectures, not a lot of homework. He is hilarious so it makes class fun and easier to learn.
Dr. Schjott is such an amazing professor, not to mention hilarious! His lectures are engaging and interesting. He really cares about his students.
Best teacher I've had so far! Funny, kind, and makes sure everyone understands material. By far the best class all around, he makes the learning environment fun and easy. would recommend him to anyone!
Dr. Schjott is an amazing teacher. Take him for everything you can. College is difficult enough and its rare to have a teacher who is interesting, you can learn from, and that actually cares about their students. I took him for Sociology, Family & Society, and Social Problems. I would take him for anything else he taught if I could! Great person!!
This man is hilarious. He makes the topic of sociology exceptionally interesting. He has 3 tests that are 50 item true/false. The final is 30 item multiple choice. They are based off of notes, so make sure to take notes. Four discussion boards that have to be responded to. Pay attention and you'll be fine. Finally, there are two TED Talk responses.
Professor Schjott is a great professor, class was easy and had a lot of useful information. So glad I took this class and would recommend it .
Seriously the most dope teacher ever. Very laid back and chill. His grading is extremely fair and the work is easy. He's also very clear on what he wants and his layout in black board is better than many of these other uptight teachers. 10/10 would recommend his class online!
Best professor at this college. I took him for all three classes that he teaches because he is that fantastic. If he taught another class here, I would take it in a heartbeat. The material he teaches and the subjects that he teachers are interesting and intriguing and he is a perfect teacher for it. Super laid back, caring, kind, understanding!
Great Professor! His lectures were thorough, but not too lengthy. You have a clear and concise schedule of what to read, lectures to watch, exam dates, etc. I really enjoyed the class.
really easy A. You have plenty of time to finish all assignments. You have 3 attempts on each test. There are no quizzes. 5 discussion questions, 2 ted talk essays (3 paragraphs) , 4 mini essays & the tests are combined by chapters. there are only 4 test. no mid-term just a final.
best teacher ever
Good class. Do the assignments and you are good to go. Nothing weighed too heavily. Interesting topics for discussion assignments. Great class for online students and non-liberal arts majors too.
Best Professor! Lectures are always interesting, assignments are fair. There's no way not to get an A if you try
Take his class if you get the chance! He is AMAZING. Every class that I have an opportunity to take him I do. He teaches based off of lectures but if you just listen closely and take good notes you will make an A on every test. He really cares about his students and it shows.
HIGHLY recommend him for sociology. I have never had a teacher lecture as good as he does. His lectures are funny, relatable, and easy to listen to. The assignments are not too much or too little. If you don't make an A... then that's your fault.
I took his online social problems class and was hands down the easiest class Ive ever taken. Would definitely recommend taking that class! I wish I was able to take him in person so I couldve gotten to know him on a personal level instead of over a computer screen. Textbook wasnt needed thanks Schjott for providing us with a pdf of the textbook!
This class is an easy A. You don't have to buy a textbook, he provides a download. The tests are open book & just true or false questions. There is a good bit of writing throughout the class including discussion posts, TedTalk critiques, and essays but I found them to be very interesting subjects and he's not very strict of a grader. Awesome class!
Professor Schjott was more than just a Professor, he is a great friend. Unlike other Professors, he understands that people have a life and he makes everything perfectly accessible to his students. His class wasn't just easy, it was fun. I will be taking his other classes.
Great teacher
I loved this class. I would 100% recommend professor Schjott's online Sociology class.
This was probably the easiest course I have ever taken in my entire life. The homework was incredibly easy. Exams were open book, open notes. You just had to write a few essays (all but 1 were less than 500 words) and participate in group discussions. If you missed an assignment, he would extend the turn-in date. Easy A, highly recommend.
Very easy class, he is a very easy going professor and I would definitely take his class again! He lectures every class but tries not to make them too boring, and you get out a little early almost everyday!
Amazing. 10/10.
His class lectures are very realistic and easy to understand. Dr. Schjott is also a very funny guy who grades easily as long as you participate. Probably the best professor I have ever taken at NWFSC.
He is very caring and if you do your work it is an easy A
Pofessor Schjott was very easy going. If you missed a due date he would extend the due date an extra 24 hours. Lectures were not long at all. He got to the point in every lecture right away. Gave amazing examples to fully understand. The test were straight forward and open book. Assignments were simple. Very easy going class. I highly recommend.
Prof Schjott is one of my favorite professors I have ever taken! His lectures are very easy to follow and understand and he does not mind cracking a few jokes along the way! 100% recommend him for both Sociology and Social Problems, both classes were very easy to pass. All of his work has a due date 2 full weeks later.
Dr. Schjotts was the best teacher Ive ever had. Ive now taken three of his classes and I throughly enjoyed each one. Highly recommend taking him as a professor. You wont regret it.
He is a great teacher. He gives you short lectures but packs them full of information you will actually use on the quizzes and tests. He gives you two chances to take tests and he lets you see the ones you missed. He gives mini essays about particular topics and they help you remember concepts. Course load not over whelming, just turn in on time!
Professor Schjott is the best professor at NWFSC hands down. I cannot say it enough, but I took him for three classes and received an A+ every time. He lays out all what you will have to do during the entire class at the beginning, grades EASY, responds to emails fast, and makes learning actually fun. Please give this man a 5/5 he deserves it!!!!!
If you have the option to take Prof. Schjott - DO IT! He's the type of teacher that wants every person to pass. His tests are very clear and go with the notes/power points (I took two of his online classes). His tests are true/false and you have two attempts to take them. If you do no make an A+ in his class, you are basically trying to fail.
Professor Schjott was great ! I took SYG online in the summer, it was very convenient. This was my first online class, I was nervous but it was easy to follow. I would take any class he teaches again in the future.
the BEST lectures! one time he gave everyone a 100 on an assignment because class got canceled. my favorite professor at nwf AND HES SO FUNNY
One of my favorite professors. Very clear on what is due and when it is due. Very stress-free class.
best teacher ever, take all his classes
Professor Schjott is amazing, the lectures are clear and concise, the class schedule is clear, and he is so funny. His grading is pretty much either a 0 or 100, the work is simple and easy you just have to do it. I would take his class every semester.
very nice and very funny, if you pay attention at all you'll pass.
He is an amazing professor. He is so caring and flexible with your schedule, and his lectures are fun and entertaining. The only piece of advice I have is to make sure you take thorough notes during his lecture. All class material was online so missing a class wasn't a horrible thing. Make sure to turn thing in on time.
Dr. Schjott was awesome. All I had to do was come to class and I would get a good grade. There were a couple assignments that he didn't feel like grading so he just gave everyone a 100 if they had showed up to class that day. His sense of humor was great. Before the class, i didn't think i would like sociology, but Dr. Schjott made me like it!
Professor Schjott is my favorite professor I have taken from. He is so enthusiastic about the subject and his lectures were always educational and entertaining. The workload was very easy and as long as you showed up to class, you would have all the information to get an A. Many of the assignments are pass/fail and the tests were open note/book.
Love this man
I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Schjott's Sociology course for Easy A Social Science credit. Text is a free online PDF! I took the 1/2 semester online course, made up of 4 tests (open book, can retake it for 2nd try), 4 mini essays (350 words), 4 journal entry's (100-200 words) and 4 discussion posts. I didn't read the book just skimmed it and got an A.
He was very good with the timing of assignments and the video lectures covered good material. He would also include a funny question in tests so at least you got one question right LOL.
Good professor. He sets out 2 or 3 assignments every two weeks. He offers a free textbook so it's one less expense which is really nice. 4 tests, 1 final, a couple journals, a couple mini-essays, a couple of discussion boards. All open-note, open-book. Simple class that was an easy A. Take him if you need a social science.
Dr.Schjott was my freshman year sociology teacher, he was absolutely phenomenal! He is always making sure you know what will be on the test, and keeps you connected to the material by relating his own stories! So happy to have had him and would 100% take any class he had.
By far the best professor at Northwest, his class was simple and very informative. I would definitely recommend any of his courses!
best professor ive had. would take the class again.
Dr. Schjott truly cares about his students. This is evident on an academic and personal level, as he goes the extra mile to make sure you fully understand the lecture whilst being personable and professional. His social problems class was easy, but participating was definitely an expectation! Overall, an amazing professor who has accomplished much.
Good teacher. Easy going, forgiving, gives good examples.
I loved this class and learned a lot from it, as long as you do the work and show up for class its an easy A. Every test was open note and open book so there was really no failing if you had lecture notes. He also put what you needed to write down up on the board during lectures, which was helpful.
Prof. Schjott was one of the best professors I have ever taken. His class relies heavily on lectures and notes; however, his lectures are always entertaining and informative. He grades by a scale of if you participate, you get a 100%, so as long as you do the assignments, you will pass. Few total assignments. Hilarious professor, would recommend.
Prof. Schjott's class is a breeze as long as you show up and do the work. Lectures are engaging, and the open-note/open-book tests make it easy to ace. Unstuckstudy AI is a great study tool alongside the provided resources.
Awesome teacher. Had him both Social Problems and Sociology. Easy going class and doesn't care too much about attendance as long as you let him know. He allows makeups. Just let him know what's going on. His class is fun to attend anyways.
Super easy, understanding course! tests are straight from the lectures as well
Dr. Schjott is such a great professor! His lectures are funny and entertaining and easy to understand. He grades generously and his tests are straightforward and 2 attempts. He's very kind and you won't want to skip his class!
Schjott is the best! I have taken his social problems, sociology, and family and society courses! He has been my favorite professor by far. Lectures are actually interesting. He is very interactive with the class as well. And his grading criteria is straightforward from day one.1000/10 would take again! Highly recommend!
I wish all professors were like him! He takes students opinions into consideration and is very understanding and caring. He does more of traditional writing lectures and his tests and quizzes are open note/open whatever. For the writing assignments, he is a very laid back grader. Ive taken most all of his classes and wish I could take more!
Very knowledgeable about the subject, amazing lectures, show up to class and take notes and you'll be just fine. Open note test, very easy on grading, values your opinion, great professor, taking another one of his classes next semester
Professor Schjott is a very short and to the point person. He makes sure you are well prepared for any tests or exams and is always accessible outside of class hours. Tests and quizzes are open notes/online book as well. Very awesome professor!
👍 great class
