By far the easiest teacher in the world. He gives you take home test. Only about 10% of the notes are on the tests. The rest of the answers you use the internet to find. You don't neeed the book for this class. Highly recommended!!!

very easy. laid back kinda guy. take home tests really easy. some of the notes in class are on the tests though.take good notes. No reason why you couldn't get a good grade in his class. Good office hrs. Gives lots of feedback. no extra credit, only tests for your final grade.no quizzes or anything.

If the person who posted before me had actually opened the book, he/she would have realized that the lectures covered the material in the chapters. The class is easy and fun. He speaks to you as if he were your friend, not a stuffy teacher.

He's awesome. The class is totally relaxed and fun. The test are take home, internet research/common knowledge. Not hard at all. Funny guy with a great sense of humor. I enjoy his class. Not strict at all- don't even have to go to class or get the book.

Eric is a good teacher but is on the unprepared side. The lab is really pointless and sometimes confusing. 60% of the grade is hw and we only have two tests, both take home. Unfortunately some of the questions on the test are on material not covered in lecture or in the book.

Really friendly, entertaining guy, but knows his science stuff at the same time. His teaching style is down to earth instead of over students' heads, so I learned a lot. Tests don't require any memorization of facts. From what I've heard the other prof who teaches this class is difficult. Take Eric, laughing always makes a class more enjoyable.

Eric is a science dude.He is funny, laid back and you almost feel as if he's a fellow student.You can tell he doesnt like tests or papers,and so he is very easy on grading.He makes sure the class understands the material before moving on and likes to make the class interesting and fun.I wish I could take him again for a different science class! :)

Great class, no attendance policy and take home tests.....if all college classes were like this I would be a doctor or lawyer by now

class seems ok. He is really cool. Really hot looking.

Super easy class. He is very laid back and makes Astronomy as interesting as it possibly can be. We had all open book open notes test. Highly recommend. He does assign homework every night though.

Good class, he tries really hard to help people understand what is going on. You need to come to class regularly because he covers stuff not in the book sometimes. I missed points on a test and I didn't know why because I thought my answer was right and pointed it out to him and he fixed it.

I'm not a big fan of physics, but Mr. Jones made the experience as painless as possible. He explains the material very well and has a great sense of humor.

great teacher makes the class interesting, pretty funny guy. show up take good notes and you will do good. all test are open book and open notes

He's not easy but he's fair and he seems to care about people. No attendance policy but he tells you that you should come to class because he talks about things not in the book. His examples are awesome!

He gives ots of examples but none of them help you on the test. Hes a nice guy very fair but not easy at all. Go to class forget about the notes and do all the homework. Only take physics if you have to.

VERY EASY DIDN'T NEED THE TEXT TOOK ONLINE AND HE INCLUDED INFO IN THE CONTENT

Very nice, always in his office, and helps a lot when you need it. His homework questions are very hard, but if you can do those, you can do the test with an easy A.

This was an easy on-line class. Didn't use the book. He gave us his own content to read. Only 3 tests 6 homeworks and a final during the summer. The final consisted of the same questions from the tests. Easy A! Chat areas were great!

ONLINE SUMMER COURSE (6 weeks) great guy, the discussion were funny and laid back. The quizzes and tests werent bad, he puts all the content online and the work is all out of that. NICEST GUY, even though I never met him I could tell he had a great sense of humor. TAKE HIM!!!! specially online over the summer EASY A

Take good notes because you will not be using the text (I used it as a supplement). Homeworks are a bit challenging but the test are not quite as bad. Don't expect test grades back within two weeks. In class examples are hilarious. You will have some good laughs.

Really the best science teacher I've had.

jones is a cool guy. learning everything is not hard if you pay attention and do the 5 or 6 homework assignments.

funny and random. thats all I got to say. I took him online for 8 weeks and got an A. Didnt even open the book, so dont other buying it. The hw (quizzes) arent bad. The tests can be tricky, but I passed them all with either B's or A's. This is the easiest way to take a science. Dont take Riban! He fails ppl all the time!!!

I took the summer course. I didnt like the structure of the class. Too many wierd video's and he rips off youtube every chance he can. Made me hate science. I learned nothing. 30 in class and everyone is complaining.Beware I think he knows that everyone said he was easy, becasue its not now. I always get a B but I dont think so this time. RUN!

I'm taking him right now and I don't know what the previous person is talking about, he's not easy but it's an online class so what do you expect? The videos help a lot, he does use many youtube videos but at least he has videos for those of us that don't do too well without something to watch. It's not his fault if you're too dumb to pass.

Very good teacher had him for uni physicas I and II. makes physics fun summer is little rough but not bad for a physics clas.. i would reccomnd him to anyone who watns to learn physics and get a good grade at the same time .... classes are very intresting.. you learn new stuff everyday..

His class is a definite A if you copy all of the notes and study from them extensively. If you did that, the exams would be a breeze. Kinda boring at class sometimes, but if everyone zones off, he tells these random 'amusing' snippets of his life related to Physics. There's never a day that you won't laugh your head off at one point in class.

Incredible teach. Does what it takes to get the concept across. Flexible but not a door mat. Very cute smile!

I took this class last semester and he was just enough hands on to answer questions but he didn't mom us. If you want an interactive class, take it in the classroom, not online.

I have him for physical sceince and he's a good teacher, I make a B on the first test and I studied I really don't see how you can fail this class he makes it clear whats going to be on the test right from the consept questions in the book so if you failed you just didn't study or you are dumb

I am taking this class online to finish my AA in May. It is such a relief! I was only looking for filler classes to finish and all my other classes are so demanding and hard but this one was great. I like astronomy already and he's not like forcing it on us with busy work. I'd recommend this class!

Great teacher. Very easy to understand. Gives examples.

I took it online - seriously the best class of the semester. Mr. Jones was very cool and presented the material which would normally be very difficult to grasp in a way that anyone could understand. I only wish I could have him as my instructor for every class. Take him - you'll regret taking anyone else.

I have taken classes are DSC for about 3 years now. Jones is one of the few teachers I have had here who has actually TAUGHT me something. He always tries to make sure that his class understands everything and gives an opportunity for questions. He is an awesome (and funny) professor!

His teaching style is both entertaining, engaging and also effective. If you listen to what he teaches and you have a couple of brain cells to rub together, you will do fine in his class. There are no free rides, however.

Best teacher I've had. I took him for Physics 1 and 2. He is very sarcastic and always has a comment or a look back, but that makes him such a great teacher. He's extremely intelligent in regards to physics as well as many other subjects. His tests are easy if you pay attention in class. Definitely take him!!

Eric Jones was a really great teacher. I took this class online and he made it so simple. You don't even need your textbook because he types in his own words a summary of each chapter, which basically means you don't have to try to memorize stuff that won't be on the test. He really makes Astronomy interesting. Highly recommended!

I took his online class. His humor definitely shows, so if you're a stiff, don't take him. Other than that, I loved his study guides, videos, and notes. He was very clear about what would be on tests. I missed a few homework assignments or I would have gotten an A. The tests were very on par with our notes -- Thumbs Up!

He is extremely intelligent - knows Calculus better than some of the math teachers and I've taken Calc3. He is funny and interesting - his lectures are a can't miss if you enjoy science. Professor's like this motivate student's to learn. Teaches the content extremely well, puts challenging problems in the homework, and then the tests are a breeze.

Eric is not only a great teacher but also extremely helpful. He adapts to his students' needs but most definitely does NOT take BS. He will joke around with you but don't confuse being fun with being easy. You come to work and you will learn. Take him!

this class was awesome. Eric is a great teacher he is smart and explains things well. TAKE NOTES and good ones. (whatever he writes on the board and repeats) u use your notes and book on test. BUT with out the lecture and notes tests might be hard i made all A's but i loved his lectures!!

Two tests, a midterm and a final. 40% of your grade for each. 10% for homework, 10% for labs. Tests are generally seven questions, but he gives ample credit for partial answers. Even just attempting it AT ALL (drawing a diagram) gets a fraction of the points. This class was hard for me, as I had never taken physics before. Alright teacher.

Don't text in class or you get kicked out. Makes clear what will be on the test. Pretty lenient with classwork. Take notes and you can make at least a B in his class.

Mr. Jones is a great teacher. if you dont understand a problem he will help you understand it. if you do the problems that he tells you to do you will do fine on the tests.

Very cool guy who knows everything about astronomy. His classes aren't mandatory but if you take notes you can use them on your 2 tests. He was a funny teacher who was able to teach and you didn't even realize you were learning. I would recommend. :)

Jones's lectures are always fun and interesting. The reason most people don't do well is because they don't have the math skills, or they don't try to truly understand the material. If you don't understand, ask until you do! He really tries to make this class as easy as possible, so pay attention and do your homework! Also A on final =A in class

At first I had no interest in Astronomy. I actually learned a lot and actually somewhat enjoyed it. There were only 2 tests which you could use your book and notes and the tests were pretty easy.Easy going teacher.

love this teacher, he is awesome, but tests are super hard. Study a ton and do homework, and go to labs if you want to succeed in his class. Super hot teacher

still love him, took 6 week accelerated course over the summer, just glad I passed. This man is a genius.

Took the summer course & loved it! I learned a lot, he is very honest & upfront. If you go to class, pay attention & take notes its an easy A. He is laid back but can keep your attention. I def recommend him!

I thought this class was easy, although it looks like not every one agrees. If you read the material and the assigned chapters, you should have no problem on the tests and quizes. The professor has an irreverant style, which I didn't mind. If you need to take a physical science class and want to take it online, I highly recommend this one.

I thought he was pretty good, he didn't have any issues replying to my emails. He doesn't have any extra credit though. Midterms and final are pretty easy if you study for them.

Super easy online class. Enough said.

Professor Jones is very straightforward. He also has a good sense of humor (clever choice of projectiles for in class examples). Doing the homework as early as possible is extremely helpful. Tests can be a little tricky. Study from lecture examples (although attendance is mandatory) and do the homework and you'll be fine.

Took this course online. As long as you do the reading, you can acheive a good grade with the tests & overall. Prof. Jones was very prompt with replies to questions or concerns. Highly recommended.

Eric is super intelligent & has a somewhat sarcastic sense of humor that makes class fun. My only complaint was my only grades came from the mid-term & the final, both of which were on the difficult side.

Love the online class, I am not a science person but I did well b/c the material was available. The test are short but you really have to know the material.

I'm taking him right now and I had the same problems until I reread his syllabus and discovered that I needed to email him at his work email and not under the virtual college AND I also found out that my email wasn't set up right so when I "raised my hand" it didn't open up a window to send him an email since fixing it I've had no problems at all

I only took this class because I had to take a physical science. But I'm glad I took it with Prof. Jones! I took it online, you have to read the textbook! The tests weren't easy and the time is short to take them. But he answers any questions that you have if you use his work email. He's great, take him!

The class is hard but I was able to get a A, there's math but everything's in the book and he's pretty responsive if you email him. He posts in the discussion area so he's not like one of my other teachers that just never replies. If you cut and paste discussion answers he tells you in the syllabus that it's a 0 on homework so be warned.

Professor is very laid back. If you come to class it is absolutely possible to get a good grade in the class. He works with you and wants you to understand. Funny. Very thorough explanations. Lets out early. He wants you to respect his classroom.

Professor Jones is great! Just finished a Spring A Astronomy and it was the easiest outline ever. 11 quizzes. Thats it. Nothing more nothing less. The lowest quiz grade gets dropped. Very easy format! He gives you everything you need to know!

Jones is a really fun teacher. Makes science as fun and applicable to everyday life as possible. There aren't major tests, just a bunch of quizzes and he drops the lowest one, so as long as you show up and take notes you will do well.

I loved Professor Jones! You have a quiz every other week I believe and the questions are straight for the notes. He's laid back and funny. Also he didn't even give a final! Don't skip class tho because he writes on the chalk board most of the time so it's hard to get notes unless you ask someone in the class.

The whole grade of the class is based on 10 quizzes, a midterm and final. There was not any homework or papers to write. The quizzes were not very hard, if you read the chapter and look over his notes, the quizzes are a breeze.

Professor Jones' class has 10 quizzes online that you can have unlimited time for and look up answers in his powerpoint or online. Besides that there is just a midterm & final. They are fair, but semi-difficult. He explains everything extremely well and he wants you to understand. Be in class, his notes are on the chalkboard.

Professor Jones was certainly one of my top 2 favorite professors in the two years I have attended Daytona State. His lectures were highly engaging, informative, and could be quite funny. I would certainly recommend his class if you are even the least bit interested in Astronomy. Just remember to take notes and study for the midterm and final!

Professor Jones's astronomy class is very interesting. The grading criteria is pretty clear. There is only test and discussions you have to worry about in this class. Just make sure you read the end dates for the test, he schedules three tests per due date. I would take this class again, probably one of the easiest science classes I have ever taken

This class could difficult, but he made it pretty simple and understandable. If you don't ask about something you don't understand, you will get 17 questions on the midterm about it and be lost. You HAVE to ask questions and he is super nice about it and won't belittle you. Only reason I didn't get an A was the online quizzes, take them early!

Took his online Astronomy class and it was not challenging whatsoever but I still felt as if I learned stuff, would definitely take another class of his again.

I took this class online and quickly became enthralled with the content provided and the knowledge of the professor. The material to study and understand the subject is second to none. Take the class and this instructor, he makes you get involved so much that you enjoy every lesson and quiz. Great instructor.

His online course was clearly structured and well organized. His course is almost self-paced and sometimes feels like self-taught. You have to read a lot and his assignment timeline is sectioned into two parts. You can and need to organize your time wisely to have all discussions, tests etc done by a certain date. It is a different, good approach.

Definition of the cool teacher. He is extremely funny and his test reflects the lectures. Come to class and take notes, you will pass.

Professor Jones is my favorite teacher of all time. He's hilarious, and his lectures are super easy to understand. He is by far the least terrible professor i've had so far at DSC. 10/10 would take one of his classes again. If you are a science person, you should check out his class. He's an amazing professor.

Took class online and judging by the course home alone I can tell this class would have been so much more fun in person. Genuinely interesting subject and content provided online. Class isn't strictly regurgitating information from the book but is rather a natural learning environment provided by the professor. Easy A and fun class.

Mr. Jones is a wonderful professor, and I would highly recommend taking his Astronomy class if you have any interest in space or the universe. Even if that interest is only a small amount. He makes his class so interesting, and is more than happy to answer questions and work to make complex topics more understandable. 10/10 would recommend.

I took Fall A. The majority of your grade are the homeworks and the discussions are easy. The videos given were helpful but the homeworks took major effort. Homeworks/final were almost completely multiple choice. Be prepared to put in the work and you'll be good. I would take this class in person if you're really interested in learning astronomy.

The astronomy class is pretty easy but is only graded based on the quizzes, final exam, and a few discussion posts. It is majority memory-based testing, but there are some mathematical calculations sprinkled in there. I've never had any reason to reach out to him personally as all of the work is fairly breezy.

The only real complaint I have about this class is the timeliness of Prof. Jones' grading and responding to emails. He took weeks to grade assignments, but luckily he is not a very tough grader. The course shell is also very organized, easy to read, and the due dates are all laid out from day 1. I highly recommend this professor.

You need to pay attention in class, and DO NOT miss a lecture. There are no notes online. He's a very understanding and knows that the subject is hard to understand as you are linking common sense and math. Make sure you practice a lot . The tests are not hard, his test questions are basic and conceptual, not hard. Such a good professor!
