One of the coolest instructor. His class is fun and full of knowledge. Feel free to contribute because he always encourages. An easy "A" if you take religions seriously. Short journals, short tests, a short presentation on a worship center visit, also a final paper instead of a final test are all that required. His teaching style is unique.

There are 6 quizzes, 5 dis boards, an on-line field trip, and an observe paper. Don't assume that turning in an assignment equals an A+. You must turn in quality to earn an A. That said, it was easy.

Flex term. The class consists of about 6 quizzes, 3 discussion board questions sets, and 2 projects. One project requires you to visit a religious temple and make a 10 min. video. The other is an online visit. The worship site is worth a lot so you can't miss it. PowerPoints are given for each religion and the quizzes are short. Keep up with dates.

He was OK at best. Takes attendance &amp; it counts towards final grade. Lectures are the WORST. all we did was listen to him while looking at one picture on a slide for 20 min. Lots of movies/clips. Didn't feel like I learned much about world religions which is upsetting. Boring, but sometimes fun group activites. 5 quizzes and 2 projects. Dilf tho.

I took this course as an elective (online, flex-term) and thoroughly enjoyed it. While there is a lot of reading... you could perhaps get away with not having a textbook. Provides slide-notes and very clear on what is required. A handful of tests, two worship reports, and discussion boards. Easy A if you are willing to put in some effort.

Course is primarily structured around student perspective on major concepts covered in each religion. Lectures cover brief history of each religion and provide insight on core concepts. Assignments and quizzes are simple and straightforward. Overall, great class to take if you're into contemplating human existence. Ewing is a pretty cool dude,too.

But this is college, if you cant spell, use commas or capitalize correctly then maybe its time to revisit and English course for an elective instead. Good luck.

I recommend him. I am an ESOL student, but his class clear and easy if you study the book and his power point lecture. Almost the grade depends in 2 basic things: discussion board 4, and the worship site report. Other than that 4 test not too hard, if you read and some times it comes from the PP(not always). So fair when he is graded.

Professor Ewing is kind, genuine, and relaxed. Took his joint class w/ Prof Matter, who's also great. Both want to get to know you. Classes are usually lecture/ discussion based, and he leaves room for questions. There are sometimes pop quizzes at the end of the in-class reading, but if you pay attention you'll be fine.
