TONS OF WORK. DO NOT TAKE HIM
He is a great professor. Yes there is a lot to do but he gives out A's like Oprah gives out cars. He is really easy and caring. He is pretty cool and very understanding about everything. He does take attendance but does't really matter. Gives a lot of extra credit.
The MOST amazing professor i have had this semester. His class his extremely easy, gives TONS of extra credit and assignments are easy. So there is no way to fail his class. He gives you the review for his quizes and exams, easy to study. The way he teaches history keeps you intrested in history. I totally recommend his class to take!! :)
amazing teacher!!! TAKE HIS CLASS!!! you won't regret!!!
BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! His class makes history interesting. Prepping for the quizzes is awesome because he helps so much. I would take his class again. Make sure you buy the correct textbook.
Professor Roeder was a great professor! He really does care about his students and isn't like most professors. He really tries to help you pass! He assigns homework every week but its nothing too difficult . He also assign a book review and group presentation. I would definitely take him again!
Great professor, would recommend 10/10. He loves bird watching!
He is an amazing teacher. He always give his best to be a great teacher. Even if we think different, he respect our opinion. When he discuss about a topic, he doesn't make you feel weird or uncomfortable which is amazing
He's really easy to take and he gives reviews before exams that are exactly what's on the exams. He's very nice and approachable and you can tell he genuinely likes and believes in his students. Great professor if I didn't hate history so much I would take him again because it's easy to pass and his personality.
He is a good professor and a really understanding guy. Whatever your opinion is on a subject he respects it. 10/10 would recommend (he also loves HEB)
I have taken him for two semester and he has helped me a lot!! He is my favorite professor. You won't regret if you take with him, trust me that he is really accesible during his office hours and you can explain him if you have a problem and are not able to do something he will give you a chance! He respects your opinion, 100/100!!
Edward Roeder is probably one of the most student friendly professors out there for those that want to receive a good education. I have learned so much out of the semester because of him. His teaching method is easy to understand and is a very kind and thoughtful teacher. It's a fun class and arguably one of the best professors in the University.
very good professor, definitely taking another class with him again.I highly recommend him.
Best professor I've ever taken. As long as you show up, do your work, and try your best you should pass. Takes late work as long as you turn it in that day. Show you care about the class, he is helpful and is shows he is there for you to succeed.
Excellent professor. Gives great lectures and very insightful, goes more then "just the textbook". Fair grader and understanding and caring professor. I learned alot, and more than just regular history. I definitely recommend and would taken again.
Professor Roeder is a great professor. He is very straight forward and shows a lot of interesting videos.
Fantastic teacher. Did anything he could to help me out as much as possible, no matter what. Often uses videos in class to go beyond the normal textbook history. If you show you care, he will help you out even if you're struggling in the class. Overall very kind person. 100% recommend taking his class if you have the chance to.
Great professor, easy A. Doesn't assign too much work. Show up to class.
Great professor, cares about all students and will do anything to make sure his students pass.
A remarkable lector, very knowledgeable, great person. Expects from students to be interactive and welcomes diversity of opinions. A fair grader. Inspirational. I very much recomend the professor.
Very open minded professor
Ed Roeder was the most caring professor I had. Hes passionate to teach, but also understands if history isnt your career path. He made the class fun and was very understanding when it came to homeworks in terms of second chances and understanding if life got to hectic. At the same time, this isnt a reason to blow off his assignments b/c he rocks
He is a great professor! He gives effective feedback on assignments and exams. His lectures go beyond the textbook for deeper understanding of the material. He taps into different learning styles like videos, music, group work! Hes fantastic and very approachable. Id definitely take him again!
Great person but not a great teacher. He was very nice. He didn't lecture just showed many videos. the tests were all based on outside homework. lots of reading and lots of outside class work. We would have an in class assignment almost everyday and that was the only reason i went because he never gave information that would help us on tests.
An amazing professor. So understanding, caring, respectful, intelligent, and very nice. He cares about you, your learning, and your future. If you show you care about the class, learning, and school he will help you so much and will be very understanding. Great class, full of info, watched lots of videos which I found very helpful and interesting!!
Great class! I would recommend taking him again or any history class for sure!
Prof. Roeder was an outstanding educator that truly cares about the learning of his students. During this course, I learned a lot and was exposed to a variety of historical topics. The class was more than just remembering dates. He taught the class like a story and used many good examples to make sense of the lesson. I would recommend this prof.
Professor Roeder is a very laid back professor. He loves discussion, shows videos, and has a lot of random, interesting facts. He is a great professor, great listener, respectful, and understanding. His exams come straight out of the textbook. I hope I can take him again in the future for another class.
very fair on grading. excellent knowledge of content in US history
HIGHLY RECOMMEND TAKING HIM AGAIN. Cares about students.
Professor Roeder is an extremely intelligent teacher that aspires everyone to be excited about history. Despite it being a survey class, he provides many resources and primary documents to help allow students in understanding time periods and people in history. His class is an easy A if you attend class for discussions and do light homework.
One of the best history professor I've had.
Professor Roeder is awesome. Very understanding and his office is always open. He is willing to do anything he can to make sure students pass. I would recommend him to anyone!
Best history teacher at TAMUCC. Would recommend to anyone needing to take HIST 1301
One of the most supportive instructors on campus. Cares for students
Professor Roeder lectures are engaging and ultimately cares about his students succeeding in the classroom! He is also always available for office hours.
Took him during the pandemic and he was one of my most helpful professors, very understanding and willing to work with you if you reach out.
Professor Roeder was one of my favorite professors of all time! He cares deeply about his students and his lectures are extraordinary! Attendance isnt mandatory but there is a lot of daily grades that are done in class. If you have the chance, take him!! :) I took him for 1301 & 1302!
This professor was amazing! He really cares about his students and their learning. As long as you keep up with the readings and do the assignments on time then this class is super easy. Dont be afraid to ask questions as hes always open to listening! i would definitely take this professor again.
He is an outstanding professor!! As long as you show up to class and turn in your work, theres no way you can fail. He really cares about his students and their overall achievement, and every email is returned, usually, in like 5 minutes or less. Hes GREAT, I would highly recommend and I would gladly take him again!
Roeder was a fantastic professor. He truly cares about history and his students. He teaches to be able to watch us students succeed. Unlike other classes in which they give generic homework that can be lost among all other classes, Roeder assigns homework that makes you think and give your own opinion on a subject. Wonderful experience for myself.
My first professor ever. He is the best and as long as you communicate with him, you'll be fine. He broke the stereotype that professors are unfair. He Is a fair grader. The best professor ever.
By far my favorite prof, he truly cares about each student. Gives extra credit and is literally the sweetest man. I could write a novel on why you should take him so like... do it, you will not be disappointed.
I started off with having Roeder's class face to face, and then had to transition into online. In either case, he is flexible and you can tell he cares about your learning. Most of the grades come from textbook readings he gives every week, but they are crazy easy and also fun to do if you like history. Highly recommend, he's the best!
He was super nice and as long as you do the work you are going to get an A. The lectures were pretty boring but the class was very easy.
I had Roeder for 1302 and 1301 and I absolutely love him. He is such a kind soul and he will do all he can to help you get an A. I would recommend him to people who are taking history and need a good professor!
he is the best professor I have ever had, I never stressed about his class. he truly loves teaching, and cares about his students!!
He is really nice.
He was the sweetest professor I have ever had truely cares about the students and is always willing to help you do the best you can! He gives great feedback for those that want to get better and really seeks to teach his students about the class!

This professor is understanding and will listen to all of his students. He is very passionate about his job and could talk about history for days.
Professor Roeder is the most kind and amazing professor here at TAMUCC. I took both 1301 and 1302 with him and got the opportunity to learn so much. His class is based on weekly chapters, two book reviews and 2 exams. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed his lecture and the insights he bring to the class. If you get the chance, take his class for sure.
Professor Roeder is very understanding if you communicate with him. The workload is a little rigorous, but it's not impossible and he definitely makes it feel easy.
Very respected professor and is very helpful to students. He helped me a lot when I was applying to universities and is one of the biggest reasons I got the scholarships and acceptance letters I have now.
Mr. Roeder cares about his students and their success. He will accommodate you to the point where both you and your professor feel comfortable.
Sweet professor! His class was very easy and he is very passionate about his job.
This professor is very understanding and went above and beyond to help students especially myself to understand the curriculum being taught; whether it was by giving us additional resources, in-depth explanations, or tutoring. Overall he is just an amazing professor. Wish the best of luck to him and his future students.
This professor is very understanding and went above and beyond to help students especially myself to understand the curriculum being taught.

He is an amazing teacher with lots of work but the assignments are easy and straightforward.
He always explains assignments well. He lectures in the class for most of the time. He always makes sure we understand the topic before we do any assignments. He gives out many assignments but they are doable because of the due dates. He also gives out a lot of extra credit opportunities. Such as attending events, writing letters/making gift cards.
This professor is extremely caring of his students, he goes out of his way to ensure everyone knows what they're doing and makes sure no one is lost. He gives out a lot of assignments with enough material to fall back on so, even if you feel like there is too much he adds additional resources so it's doable.
He has a different teaching style than I am used to. He uses good examples when teaching the material. He assigns too many assignments due on days near each other which gives me no time to do them on time. Other than that, he's a very good and kind professor.
He gives amazing lectures with outstanding examples. He goes into detail about every topic. Even though he assigns a lot of work, he gives us enough days to complete it. Not only that, he gives a bunch of extra credit opportunities to boost our grades. Overall he's an amazing teacher. I like his personality and the way he views the world.
