Dr. B is the coolest. He is fair and doesn't make being liberal a requirement to pass his class. I wouldn't call him a conservative, but he is not a bleeding heart liberal like many college professors I have had. Taking his class is a positive decision.
nice teacher, the subject is hard, but he teaches it pretty well and is very fair
Very good discusions.
Dr. B is great, his class is really interesting.....If somebody needs this class take it with him.....he is a great teacher....Ciao
very nice teacher one of the best I ever had,very clearly on whats gone be on the test and fair.
He rerally is the best!
Professor B. is awesome. Class is easy to follow, and he is very helpful. Pretty unbiased in teaching approach, which is great. I highly recommend him.
No Comments
He effin rocks, one of my fav professors. There are only four assignments all semester. Like one current event, one book report, a mid term and the final. good times, take him.
Dr. B. was one of the best teacher's Ihad at RCC..I hate almost a lot of subjects except English and Sociology..but I passed his class with an A! Only because his work was understandable and exciting to learn, he is really funny and he is relaxed..he's not soo uptight...I would take his class again if I wasnt at the UC..If you want an A..Dr B!
EXCELLENT! I love his British accent, he's witty and he is very charming and funny. I'm not political, I took the class because it's required, but he made the class interesting. I HIGHLY recommend his FRI TV course. 1 Fri per month, 6-9, 1 book report, 1 mid & final. He gives u the test questions in advance!! TAKE HIM!
Grrrrrrreat Teacher! Makes topics intresting, and class goes by quick. Since he has lived in many countries he has a very well rounded understanding of Political Science!
Dr. B is a fantastic teacher! He's not clearly left or right but lets you decide for yourself. His understanding of political science is much better than the UC profs I've had. Take his classes and learn to love learning.
Mr. Biancardi is a great professor. Taking the TV course was super easy. Class is once a month on Fridays. One midterm, a book review, and final. Easy A if u work hard.
Odd teacher, weird comments. I started to take a class online and didn't get a good feeling so I dropped it.
Mr. B. is hands down the best teacher i have ever had! He is a political genius! I hate politics, but he made it interesting and easy to learn. He is really hot too! Definitely take him!
He's a laid back teacher. I wish he had a hand out on the book report though. I scored low because I couldn't remember the guidelines.
Dr. Biancardi is very thorough and fair. Don't pay attention to students that can't handle the work and drop it - they are obviously not qualified to judge. He's one of the best teachers I've ever had. I worked hard and it paid off. Take him!
This teacher rocked. I loved his teaching methods and it worked for me! I got an A in the class. I'm not saying he is easy peasy, but he is fair and will lay it all out for you. I recommend him to ANYONE needing to take poli sci. My class was the class/telecourse. He was an awesome, fair, hot, understanding teacher!
Pleasantly surprised to find such an amazing,exceptional,extremely knowledgable professor at the community college level. He could teach at any major university, he is that good and we are lucky to have him. Immensely interesting, could listen to him lecture forever. Would love to spend more time discussing current national/world events in class.
I took this online and found the discussions to be anything but boring - of course, some students are idots and can hardly write their names. I learned more than in any other class I've ever taken! This guy rocks!
I took this class online this summer and found the discussions to be thorough and very instructive. Dr. B really knows what he's talking about and his feedback is detailed and always helpful. the text was also very interesting and fair. This was a great experience for me. I learned more than I could imagine possible.
Professor Biancardi is confident, and hot because he's just that incredibly brilliant. Only four assignments in the course, he's very open and unbiased. He gives great lectures, and if you pay attention you'll do well, but really you should only take this class if you're actually interested in politics. If not, you might be bored out of your mind.
i did not want to take this class because i hate politics but this professor really made it interesting. i'm so glad i took him! he really knows his stuff and is always willing to help you with any questions or trouble you are having with the class. make sure you take really good notes as his exams are mainly on the lectures.
Great teacher! Knows hes stuff real good and is unbiased and logical which is a must for a Poli sci teacher. Im interested in politics but even if your not hell make it interesting. You can tell hes a koo kickbacked teacher. Hes just badass and smart with a comedy British accent.
Great teacher. He really knows his politics. If you enjoy this topic take him, if not I wouldn't suggest it.
One of the funniest professors I have ever had. Although the subject I took wasn't the most interesting he related to a lot of real world situations and put things in perspective for you. Cusses a lot which kept me laughing a lot. If you are going to take Politics, you have to take his classes.
Knows his stuff, very interesting class.
Great teacher, possibly the best I have ever had. Be prepared to do a fair amount of essay writing. If you write well with originality you will do well. If not, find another class.
Like others have said: one of the best teachers in RCCMV. Politics will be much more interesting. Cusses and keeps it real and has a british accent although he's Argentinian i think. Take him.
Excellent professor! Obviously knows and loves this subject, he makes it as interesting as he can. Speak up in class, it makes the discussions much more stimulating. If you have to take political science, take this class. Awesome, awesome class!!!
Knows his politics. Took online class during summer so we had 2 essay test and then one final in essay form and a paper of compare and contrast. Your required to do 1 newspaper article and participates in discussions. Fear grader and helpful. Essay test are single space, and theres also multi-media projects.A lot of reading and typing. A bit hard.
I do not like politics. It bores me and I was hoping he would make it interesting but he didn't. I feel that he doesn't really lecture about the material. The power points are not helpful. He goes off topic. I like Professors that lecture and explain the material not ones that go off on la la la land. Uninteresting to me, Sorry
Love him! He's so much fun, and has so much passion for Politics, and is very level headed. Although what he discusses now is not in the textbook it is of importance. He informs us of the fallacies used in Politics and grades fairly easy. Never weighed down in homework. Take his class. It seems difficult at first, but it's not trust me.
I went to this class not knowing anything about politics and left this class without knowing anything about politics. Dr. Biancardi really knows the subject well, but i think he expects everyone to already know what he is talking about. He has a lot of assignments due at the end of the class. So if you want a good grade i suggest you start early.
A very intelligent professor who takes pride in what he does as teacher in Political Science. Awesome one!Pol
He knows his stuff really well. He explains the reality of politics in a way that you understand it. He isn't afraid to say it like it is..really cool professor. A LOT of writing in this class so be prepared. Overall, study the powerpoint and the textbook and know all the concepts. It's an easy class but the assignments are time-consuming.
Dr.B is so funny! his class is also easy. once a week just lectures. The time goes by fast because he's so funny! you have two tests and a paper that's it.
If you are not a lib., dont bother with this class. Tests are essay form and he is totally picky. Does not like other opinions other than his own, strays off topic...
I found dr. Biancardi to be really hard but I worked really hard and got an A. The class requires a lot of Reading and writing. He is quite Liberal by the way, but he tries to be fair to students who are not.
Very interested in his subject. He's a politician- if poli sci is not your thing, it might be a lot harder to follow him. British accent and really funny. Only 2 tests (essays) and a book review. Gives you everything you need ahead of time so there are no excuses. Gives lectures, but his powerpoints are available online.
Midterm & Final u have to write 3 essays. You have a 2500 book review and you write a 1pg summary on 8 articles he gives u which are a couple pgs long. for class everyone does 1 article presentation which is the easiest part of the class. Teacher is good but you need to read the text in order to fully understand. Class is a lot of work must keep up
BEST class EVER--Dr. B rocks--It won't matter if you don't agree with him, what does matter is that you have an intelligent argument for NOT, he WILL challenge you. He is more than fair and extremly patient.very helpful for those who take his class seriously,not an easy A if you have only half a brain. VERY funny and great sarcasim. lol
This guy is a joke. He wants his students to think like politicians. Hard grader and his comments are pointls. He tries to be funny with his sarcasm but he is boring. Don't take him!!
Although the professor did allow students to post perspectives about politics openly, he was an extremely hard grader. This class will ruin your GPA if you do not have in-depth analytical responses! (for essay tests and assignments) For those wanting to finish this class simply for gen. ed, DO NOT TAKE.
Dr. B's classes are the best! He loves his subject and works really hard to help students. Some are beyond help with stupid conspiracies like Obama is not a US citizen or global warming is a hoax. If you're smart and like intelligent but hard classes, he's the one to take! If you like Glenn beck and other stupid political jokes, you better not.
Had Dr. B for online summer class and he was extremely challenging but really great. We had tons of reading and writing but it was well worth it in the end. I learned sooo much! Too many idiots in the course with stupid ideas about our country but Dr. B was very gentle. I would have been much harsher! Would love to have him in a face to face class.
Horrible teacher, he is not made to teach at all, boring homeworks, pointless long assigments, silly videos to watch and comment, he does not use the typical multiple choice format for examns. Avoid this guy if you want to get a decent test, otherwise, he'll make you beg him to pass his class. ARROGANT TEACHER! 50% of his class dropped last semestr
Dr. B is amazing. I am laughing at the notion that anyone would sue him. If he claimed you were plagiarizing, you likely were. It is not his fault you are stupid. Rock on, Dr. B!
Dr. B is a great teacher! My only difficulty with this class was the 2 sources of material class lecture did not cover the book. I liked how the exams were not mult. choice because he provided feedback on all papers, plus it shows you actually understand the material. Great discussions in class!
Dr. Biancardi was a tremendous teacher who challenged you, taught you and gave you feed back. I appreciate his efforts and wish I had more classes with him. If you didn't pass it isn't his fault that you didn't do the work.
Avoid his online class. Lots and Lots of reading and writing! He is liberal and you cant have an opinion that he doesn't agree with because he will just step all over you. You can't defend yourself for fear of getting a bad grade. I don't like this teacher. Take another teacher this one is to arrogant!
His online class is extremely difficult! His exams are not multiple choice. Be ready to type you butt off. Essays after Essays, back to back! Get the book ASAP, his exams are based on them and ready ALL the material! Hes hard. Avoid if possible!
People that say that he is too hard just simply don't have the capacity to actually learn or to take a critic. I have to really commend him on actually knowing the material and being a challenge. All it takes is effort. If youre lazy and want an easy A, don't take him. If you genuinely want to learn and make the most out of school, take him.
Do all assignments way before they are due. Midterms and final require a lot of dedicated studying!
He's hilarious, but when it comes to work its hard and intense. If you don't have the capability of critically answering anything then I suggest don't even add the class. His speeches are long but very important as much as the text book so bring a recorder. You have to love or become accustomed to reading. Good Luck! P.s. Be on top of your game.
Awesome professor! I ended up dropping the semester for personal reasons, but I'm retaking him. Definitely learned a lot from him. I hated politics and never cared for it until I took his course. He's not easy, and you must read the text if you want to pass. MID TERM | Final | online work. He does help you prep for tests :)
He is an excellent professor that is socially and politically conscious. you may not always agree and he will challenge you. However you will leave prepared and ready for whats next. On this campus steer clear of sheila pisa she is the definition of what is wrong with America.
Going into this class I liked Biancardi. Sitting through this semester I changed my mind. I'm sure he's a cool person outside of class but in class, I don't appreciate his teaching. If you're going to teach political science, I believe it should be in an unbiased manner. He is extremely biased & will make you feel stupid if you disagree with him.
I chose this as a requirement and a small interest in Politics. BIG MISTAKE. If you want to begin learning about Politics avoid his class. He expects everyone to be pros at this. His grading is super hard, you have to really know what you're talking about. NO multiple choice tests either. only 3 assingments. If u fail the first one ur screwed.
This class was in no way easy. Way too much of the grade was attached to four assignments (90%). The quizzes for each chapter were absolutely worthless toward your final grade. I wrote more in this class then in my English 1A and Sociology classes combined. Online is even worse. Avoid the class and instructor if you care about your grades/sanity.
Took this class online. If you are looking for an easy Political Science class to take this is not the class to take. 3 major essay assignments: Mid-Term, 3 page essay, Multi-Media Assignment, 7 page essay and the Final, 3 page essay. Chapter tests aren't worth much. Dr. B knows his politics, but if you hate writing, avoid this class!
Dr. Biancardi is an amazing teacher. His classes are easy if you know the material and can write quickly and well. He's very passionate and knowledgeable about political science. I wish I could take his class again!
This was a class that had a difficult subject matter. His class is set up pretty easy. Just take notes, bring in a event in current news. The midterm and final can be difficult, Its all short answers and you just have to basically write a mini essay for your test. Oh final paper was 4 pages single spaced. Literally the hardest thing I ever wrote.
Took this class for the winter session. Dr. B is a great professor, but he wants you to agree with his views on issues and if you don't...He will shoot you down! Mid term and Final were fair and the discussion board interaction was high. I don't recommend taking this class unless you have at least Eng 1A. Also, Sociology 1 is very similar
Excellent politics professor. Politics is a requirement if you want to get your degree it's good to take it with him. Challenging but do able work and tests your knowledge. His political views are always extremely well backed up. Don't see a reason why you'll disagree unless you're a die hard republican or something. 11/10 will politics again.
I am extremely ignorant towards politics, his class was made up meeting once per week and the first 45mins-1 hour of class was discussing current events in our society, and the rest him lecturing through powerpoints. 3 tests, 6 multimedia assign, and a 4 page single spaced paper. He gives you the exact test question way ahead of time.
I took a Hybrid Course. He was a great teacher at lecture,didn't have much work. Very critical on his essay exams. No multiple choice tests. I am not a fan of politics at all so this class was a little difficult for me. DO THE MULTIMEDIA ASSIGNMENTS GRADUALLY. DO NOT WAIT FOR THE LAST MINUTE!
This was one of the most difficult classes at MVC especially because I took it during winter. We had papers due every week, he was not an easy grader either. But he always wrote comments to clarify what he wanted in the certain assignments. Take him if you are willing to be challenged:) You will not be disappointed!
Took this during summer session. Hard class!Professor is biased, if he does not agree with your view he will let all know. This class had a lot writing all assignments equaled 14 pages, single spaced, 12 font. Grade rests heavily on critical thinking in essays . Quiz's are supposed to count toward extra credit, but did not seem to count at all. I
I took this class during a spring semester and it was the hardest class I took that semester. The professor is a cool guy but he often goes on tangents and talks about theories instead of clear subject matter. His ppts won't help. There are online ec quizes but the class is based on 2 essay exams where you don't get to have any notes. Avoid this
Do not take this class if you have a life or other classes. He will criticize you on your political opinion and grade that way as well. LOTS of writing and reading. I don't suggest this teacher, but take him if you want a real challenge because it felt like a doctorate program class.
Professor Biancardi makes class very interesting with his lectures. He also encourages students to participate in politics. But he is not shy about his opinions, so if that bothers you maybe take someone else. The class does involve a lot of writing even for the midtermfinal
I just finished taking the course online for the winter interval. I'm not really into politics but I still got a great grade. There is a lot of reading and writing (single spaced. There were four or five multimedia summaryreflection papers, a four page essay, then the midterm and the final that both contained three essay questions.
He's truly the best Moreno Valley College has to offer.
I thought Dr. B was a great teacher and was helpful when asked for it. He made sure that everyone understood what he was asking of the students and to ask questions if you didn't know something. He is passionate in his subject and encourages others to get involved. Be prepared to stand up in front of class to give your media report.
Dr. B's class was very informative and I learned a little bit more in politics. Politics is not my favorite subject but he made it interesting enough. Be prepared to write an essay (single space). A lot of reading and writing. His lectures on Power Point so you can get info from there as well.
He's a great professor, you'll learn a lot. However, prepare to be challenged. This isn't an easy A.
If you are looking for an easy class don't take this one but as the others said, if you want a challege take it! I took it for summer online and although it requires a lot of reading and writing I enjoyed it a lot. Your concept about politics will be different after this class... I had a little debate with Dr. B but it didn't affect my grade at all
lots and lots of on your own reading. Class felt more like political theory rather than pol-1. If your easily offended by cursing than avoid him. Tests are in class essays, no multiple choice or short answer most stressful class this semester.
Definitely a challenging class, and he is quite opinionated. However, I learned a lot and enjoyed his lectures. One disadvantage to his class is that he doesn't post grades so basically you're in limbo about how you're doing in his class till you receive your grade at the end of the semester aside from your midterm grade.
I took him for Spring semester. The only big tests there would be is midterms and finals. He assigns an essay and multimedia assignments so make sure you put your all in the stuff he does assign. Mr. Biancardi is a really great teacher. If you want feedback he'll give it to you. I
I am a straight A student with a 4.0. I am ready to transfer and took Mr. Biancardi's Political Science 1 class on-line. WARNING!!! If you do not agree with his Socialistic, Democratic, anti-gun, anti-Capitalist stance, you will struggle to get an A. The only reason I received an A is because I did the extra credit offered from the beginning.
Dr. Biancardi made boring material bearable and not too difficult to pass. There's not a lot of assignments but each paper is single spaced. There's no exams just papers for assignments, midterm, and final. The book is not too heavy so it is easy to follow along. There aren't many points in the class so try not to miss any work!
Professor Biancardi is really cool. He gives amazing feedback and lives debates about social issues. He also like when you disagree with him because it opens up more discussions.
If you have a preexisting opinion different than his, your grade will suffer!!! He is NOT open to people who have an established political background. Moreover, the class only offers you a 1 sided Biancardi perspective. I was extremely disappointed in his inability to present a well-rounded political science education.
Since this was a hybrid class, most of the work is reading and essays. He says whatever is in his mind and won't pass you if you don't participate in essays and discussions.
Such an amazing professor who is passionate about the subject he teaches! I would take him again, made the lectures very interesting to listen to. I enjoyed coming to class! Also, he is hilarious when speaking to the class. Take him! you will not regret it.
Had him for American Politics (POL 1) and he is a wonderful teacher. I took it as a hybrid, but this wasn't all too bad. His viewpoint tends towards a democratic and liberal perspective, but he loves a good debate. His cultural background also makes his insights interesting. Definitely suggest having him as a professor.
Professor Fabian is really bias, unless you have a liberal mindset, he will never make you feel good being in class, he wouldn't hesitate to put you down in front of the class If you even disagree just a bit, it's sad that a professor with such a heavy background is so closed minded and brainwashed by the main stream media. Avoid if possible.
Hes a good professor, very upfront with whats expected of his class and makes the subjects understandable. Participation matters for points in class and also in blackboard discussions, his essays are easy as long as you present good arguments of your perspective. Overall good professor
Professor Biancardi is a very knowledgeable professor who leans center of left. He is open to debate, but if you're a conservative I highly suggest you support your arguments with academic facts from reputable sources (not Fox, Brietbart) or you will be embarrassed. He has a PhD and knows his stuff. Major exams consist of 3 essays. Piece of cake.
Dr. B is a great professor, he took something that is boring and made it fun. However, this is not an easy A class you will work for the grade you get. All of the assignments are due at the end of the semester with the exception of the midterm so you could get behind if you're not careful.
Hes a solid teacher. Liberal. He knows his stuff. His grading is clear and answers your question about grades. For test, make sure you go in detail and expand. It was a fair class.
He's a pretty easy prof. Only 100 points for the semester, not a lot of room to screw up. Gave us 3% extra credit for volunteer work, and dropped our lowest grade at the semester. Plenty of time to do all the work. Only one essay, which is the final. Gave us all the test questions before the mid/final.
Professor Biancardi will make you work for your grade. Midterm and final make up the bulk of your grade so do not mess those up or your grade will not recover. He's a hard grader I was never able to get full points on the multimedia assignments. He does outline what he wants do the quizzes because the multiple choice on the test ae based on them.
Very passionate about politics and it really shows during lectures. Final and midterm are the bulk of the grade along with multi-medias. Exams are very simple and easy if you study. Writing portion of exams are more difficult. Requires lots of details and examples. Great teacher! I would take again.
His political stances are made very clear. His assignments are very clear. His teaching style for Poli Sci 1 was very different than the other 2 times I took it w/others. He focused on what I believe upper division instructors might and leaves you to study American Government on your own via the online textbook he provides. He teaches more theory.
If you have any conservative views, do not, I repeat, do not take this course with him! He will bash your opinions so harshly and not professionally.
Took POL1 with Prof Biancardi and was very satisfied with his lectures and material. Easy to pass if you review and read(free online) along with participation. His paper assignments are interesting with fair grading.
I notice a lot of conservatives have a lot of heat towards this intelligent professor. Maybe POL1 didn't work for them like it SHOULD HAVE, how sad. Very interesting class and gained a lot of knowledge with his material.
Best teacher at MVC! His lectures are great, hes very clear and loves to go in depth. Theres only few assignments due, as long as you follow his study guide for the tests its a great class
Mr B is awesome. Please dont wear a red hat, he will think its one of those hats. He makes you work for your grade, but he is great! Do the discussions online! VERY IMPORTANT! Study! Theres two test; midterm and final, which has 50 multiple choice (he gives you the answer the class before the test) and there is two essays, but tells you 4 topics
Biancardi was a fairly easy teacher. Quiz were easy if you study. We had 1-2 page paper summary due every other week that was based on an article or video. Discussion participation is key. Post one article, and respond to Atleast 15 other discussions. If you stay active on discussion, he rounds your grade if you are close to a higher letter grade.
professor Biancardi is amazing. you have to participate in the discussion boards, the book is mandatory since the quizzes come directly from there, but the book is free online so don't buy it. you do have 3 multimedia assignments, but they aren't that hard.
He's a great and understanding professor. There are not very assignments throughout the semester, but you must do all of them if you want to pass. You will need the book but there is a free version online so do not pay for it!!
theres only 3 multimedia assignments but he grades them really hard. each one is out of 10 points for our last paper the mean of the class was 4.0!! quizzes are 30 questions article review. discussions participation matters !!!
He such a beautiful professor that u could meet ever. He so helpful and nice has a great experience, he also always available for u, he so flexible teacher u never will feel u on stress during taking his class I'm really so glad I got my pol with him
I took this class online and I must say he is a tough grader. Its hard to teach yourself the material especially if you know nothing about politics. We do have like 30 question quizzes and multimedia assignments. You have to really pay attention to the course dates because the agenda wont tell you. Basically teach yourself and good luck
He was a good professor when I took him in January 2021 for the winter term. I do have one complaint about him. He was heavily biased towards the conservative side and showed his liberal side too much. As long as you study and watch his lectures and videos for the assignments then you be good to go. I got an easy a in his class.
Easy class!!! Read a chapter a week and that is basically all. There is three simple one page responses and 2-3 tests throughout the entire semester. Honestly one of the easiest classes taken. He is very intelligent and keeps you updated on current events.
HE'S SUPER COOL! AND HE HAS an awesome read on the 1619 Project that I loved!! TAKE HIS CLASS!!!
I would give no rating if I could. So rude and unthoughtful. I took his class in 2019, before the pandemic, and as we were entering the class, he says "if you have any conservative views, you can leave my class." So if you have any conservative views, DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS! Take Slavick instead..
He was really nice until the final paper. I watched the lecture that he told us to watch and spent 2 hours on that page paper. His "feedback" said "You raised good points. You did not answer the question of the paper. It confuses me why didn't you watch the lecture?" I thought that it was kinda rude to say that to a student when I clearly watched.
This class was very enjoyable and while the lectures were prerecorded, it had tons of good information. We had to post an article with a summary and our thoughts once, then every week we had to respond to 2 other students' posts for participation. There were quizzes which were easy since it was all questions from the textbook. No technical final
Professor Biancardi has a lot of knowledge of his topic. You will have three essays throughout the course, which for me was not much, they all are just one page, so it is possible to do. You will have to take a quiz every week and read the textbook online, but the class is easy, and all of the information is given to you, so you will pass for sure.
I took his fast-paced class, and it was manageable. He is VERY blunt and open about his liberal agenda. With that being said, if that is going to be an issue for you- maybe find another prof. You must create one post about a news article and present it (just one) , make 2 discussion replies per week,1 quiz per week, and final essay. easy peasy.
One of the best teachers I have ever had in my academic career. I took his late start class and although that meant deadlines were faster, everything moved in a rhythm and can get easily used to. One of the most passionate and funniest teachers I have ever had. I think this was his last year but if not you must take him for your politics class.
Dr. Biancardi is one of the best professors that I have ever had. I took his fast-paced class. He is hilarious, and always goes over the material the students had to learn. If you take him, you will have a lot of fun, and I started loving politics after him. Big thanks to the professor!
Biancardi is a great teacher to have. He makes politics more interesting and he's thorough with his lectures. He's also a really funny guy. Take his class!
Really easy class, the homework was easy too. I only took this class for the credits but I did learn a lot about politics and what is going on in the world. You do have to do a presentation about any current event in the world but it was easy too. Recommend his class.
Biancardi makes politics engaging with his thorough lectures and great sense of humor. While the workload is manageable, staying on top of readings and assignments is key. Unstuck AI was a lifesaver for review - highly recommend!
