On clarity...at times (especially here lately) he tends to express his political views (he's "Independent" in terms of party, but the dude's a bleedin' heart liberal. He even said so in class). Other than that, he's okay.

He combines being easy with really knowing what he's talking about. You will leave the class feeling like you've really learned something of importance. He makes his political bias known, and even though I sympathized with him, his information is based only on fact. Best of all, he's hilarious!

Mr. Korzetz is a great teacher. His teaching methods worked for me because he will say what you do need to write in your notes for the test, and what you don't need to write because it will not be on the test. By doing this, you know exactly what to study for the test, but still learn interesting and useful facts. He is on time and done on time.

If you have the chance to take him online, DO IT! super easy, nothing but quizzes and 3 major tests, and one easy paper. Right when the class begins he opens up every assignment and youre able to complete the class at your own pace. Easiest class ever. Definitely recommend.

The online class is self-paced. I was able to get a majority of the work done in the first 5 weeks and completely finished with everything in 7 weeks. The class is pretty straight forward. If you apply yourself and put in a good effort, you will be successful in Mr. Korzetz class.

easiest class ever. took him for 2305 and 2306, there is 6 quizzes and 3 exams, one research paper also offers 10 points worth of extra credit, all you have to do is participate in discussion board questions. opens everything the day class begins, if you're able to take him online DO IT!!! also NEVER used a text book for the class.

He always goes off topic from lecture and just expect us to know everything even tho he told us to just pay attention to lectures. Failed my firsts test after taking his notes and he said everything would be on the test. One of the test questions was “we did not go over this but let’s see if you know the answer”. (It was not extra points btw)

Take the notes, make the sheet, and you'll pass the class. His voice is weirdly calming as well so it's very easy to understand what he's saying and he will repeat what he says a lot but it doesn't get annoying.

I took this class as a summer 10 week course. I should ahve finished within a couple of weeks, but I procrastinated. You're able to work ahead and finish the course however quickly you would like. Overall, i would recommend to anyone to take his class.

I believe Prof K. kept the class neutral- not siding on a political side. Now that AI is an issue run your paper through GPT. The Writing Lab helps; I took the ten-week Summer class. He gives 8 quizzes, three exams(with two essays - pre-written option) & 1 paper. Extra Credit. Quizlet helps you to study in this class, He is very fair and kind

he does lectures everyday! he very good at them. you do 2 test each month from the book, and take a exam after. his exams are only on his lectures, so only need to read books for test. the tests are online. no final exam. gives extra credit (10 points total). 1 paper and ours only was 5 pages! and you don't have to participate js take notes.

I took his class online, and it was very easy. We had very few assignments. One of my papers said it was "AI detected" when it wasn't, but I emailed him and he was really understanding and fixed my grade!

I dreaded taking Govt, but Mr. Korzetz made it not so daunting. The course is in real-time, with the history of our country. There are weekly quizzes, 3 exams, one research paper & extra credit for discussions. The course was open & self-paced, I completed the course in half the time which worked out great for personal reasons.

I love that the class was self-paced. The class just consisted of 8 quizzes and 3 exams, which are open notes and open textbook, and 5 discussions boards for extra credit. Then you just have a paper that is about your political socialization that does not require any research. I highly recommend taking Korzetz for gov, he's an awesome and chill guy

Awful! Took him back in 2022 and did not learn a thing. His course is very lecture heavy, and he often goes off topic to mostly talk about food for the WHOLE class and expected us to still learn anything. Failed my first two tests and had to drop. Re-took it during the summer with a different professor and it was 100% a better time.
