His class if very interesting. You don't really have to take notes, everything for the tests come off of his online review sheets. There is also no book to buy so it makes this class very inexpensive. I recommend Prof. Jefferies to anyone!

Easy class if you have the time and willing to put in an honest effort

The class is boring as all hell, but he's a cool dude. He's funny and he makes it as bearable as a government class can be. I hated the subject matter but I still took him for both semesters. I passed with minimal effort.

Professor Jefferies class for the most part is real easy and fun you dont have to take notes but there are four papers which go along with the four tests (all m.c. and t.f. questions) the topics of the papers can be tricky but I managed. Read your assigned chapters and the online notes and use the review he gives you you will do real well He rocks!

I really enjoyed his class! He's an interesting guy!

Very entertaining professor. Expects you act like adults, stay engaged in lectures and read the material. Does not like bad attitudes or laziness. Not going to just "give" you an A, but does go above and beyond to teach you what you need to know so that you can earn an A. Make sure to take 2301 before you take 2302 or you will be lost.

Very good lectures, makes you think! Best part NO BOOK!! If you are rude, don't participate, then you should be wearing dunce caps and making things from construction paper. If you're offended, he's probably right. He's always willing to work with those who actually care.

I took Mr. Jefferies through an online course. You didn't have to go in all semester for the online course, everything was on the internet. We wrote short papers EVERY week as the assignment, so if you do not like writing he may not be for you. We also had to write two 1,000 word essays. I REALLY enjoyed his class and I'm taking him again for 2302.

i took him online and it was a very easy class as long as you do the writing assignments you will do fine Just make sure you go way over the world limit and you are sure to getn an A =)

Before I took this class I heard bad comments and was a little scared going into his class. He makes the class as interesting as possible, and has everything online for you. Take a laptop makes things more enjoyable. He tries to involve the class in the lecture, weekly quizzes aren't hard, 2 papers, a final, I recommend him.

Took his online class. As long as you do the work and turn it in on time you will be fine. You have weekly assignments (he cancels one) and two papers. Pretty easy class. If you take is online class, you don't need a text book. He puts everything online.

Very easy class. Took his online class. He doesn't like blackboard so he uses another site. There are 13 weekly assignments and two papers and then the final. You don't have to buy a book for his class either. He puts everything on line that you have to read. Most of the time the reading material is linked to wikipedia.

I took Jefferies for both 2301 and 2302. He is very passionate about what he is teaching. He gives a quiz over his lectures on Mondays, I did find his class to be boring at times if you do miss a lecture he does post his power points online. Overall it a pretty easy to get a B, it takes some work to get an A. No book needed!

I took Mr. Jefferies class online this summer. The work was very fair and easy. He always has powerpoints and links to give you information. They essay questions every week are sort of hard, but you can get through them. The quizzes every week are pretty easy. I would recommend him as your government teacher at ACC.

I found Mr.Jefferies knowledgable, passionate about Gov't, & fair. Took Govt I online, & Govt II in class. Lectures are a delight! He likes essays so you Will be writing. Wkly quizzes; pay attention & you'll do well. He's interested in students' ideas, encourages active participation, & is respectful & kind. I learned a lot that I won't forget

Took his class online this summer. Class is time consuming, but essays are not to taxing, tests are multiple choice so if you study and put in some effort to learn the material you will do fine

Took GovtI online & GovtII in-class. Online was hard b/c so many links; lots to sort thru for essays. GovtII lectures were delightful! He's interesting & funny! Does talk fast - but mc-tests are based on PPTs. He's big on current events, well tho't-out essays, and vigorous student participation during class. I got A's, but they weren't 'easy' A's.

As long as you read the powerpoints the class is very easy to follow. I work full time, have two kids and was able to easily manage this course during the summer. Everything you need to know is in the powerpoints, read them and you should do great.

He is very funny, and all of the work is online.

Alot of writing

This class is really not that hard. You have a paper once a week of 150words and 2 quizzes that come from the power points. Just make sure to skim through them and you can make A's on all the quizzes. Great teacher and i took him for govt 2301 and 2302 online and have enjoyed both of his classes

Dr. Jefferies is a great professor; while he tends to ramble, he covers everything you need to know for the two weekly assignments. However, if you're not opinionated, it can be difficult to score well on the weekly essays. He's hilarious and quite interesting.

Amazing teacher. I have taken his online classes for history 1, 2, gov 1, & now gov 2. He has decoded the language of Government for me, which no other teacher could. He offers a plethora of information & breaks things down in a way that makes this class seem almost easy even though it was my worst subject in highschool.

Dont need book. He uses power points as chapters and has quizzes over them that aren't super easy and due every monday with an 150 discussion. Think he's a liberal and takes points off if your not.. easy B tough A.

This professor was very helpful! He worked with me on everything. I recommend him to anyone.

Mr. Jefferies is an excellent teacher! He challenges his students to think critically and way out of the box. Having taken his classes, I now believe I am an educated citizen, which is the goal of GOVT classes. You must stay on top of your assignments, or you will be overwhelmed if you slacken. Pay attention to daily news,both local & national.

In Dr. Jefferies government classes, it is easy to make a B, but making an A is very difficult. I takes staying on top of every assignment and preparing for the final exam. Dr. Jefferies is an excelent professor and will keep you entertained.

Jeffries is an awesome teacher,kinda cute too! Attendance is not mandatory,but it is extremely helpful. I would highly recommend taking his class!

I took his class online and got a B there is a lot of material an slides ,but he's so cool if you talk to him in person. By the way the quizzes are the final so just look at those for a review. The paper was easy considering I never read the assigned book. It's easy work ,but a lot .The only bad thing I'll say is that they were too many slides.

Tough, but fair grader. Final is tough, but probably should be. Allows unlimited retakes on quizzes. Some PPs have a lot of slides, but some don't. Way better than a textbook. Encourages students to figure things out on their own (like an adult would do). Manage time wisely to complete work. Cool guy if you talk to him.

Took as a 5wk course. 31 quizzes, a short 150 word assignment each week, one 1,000 word paper, and a final. Quizzes are based directly off his powerpoints which are LONG! Anywhere from 100-200+ slides. I managed to get a B in the class but you have to stay on top of the course work. Don't slack off, or you'll get behind. You can retake quizzes.

There were over 30 Power Points of 120-250 slides each WITH 1 quiz each so it took forever. The quizzes are the final. You have a paper due every week & 1000 pg essay at the end. If you don't do everything, you will not pass. This said, he is really funny and if you do the work, you will pass with no problem. It was hard, but you WILL learn

Although there is a ton of daily grades, this class is not hard to do well in if you put in the effort. Prof. Jefferies' keeps his power points humorous and the writing assignments involve current topics to keep things fresh. The final test is challenging but your final grade does not depend on it. I would recommend this teacher.

I can't say anything about his campus classes because I haven't taken them, but his online classes aren't difficult at all. The quizzes are doable if you read the power points and you get unlimited tries on them. The weekly writing assignments are difficult but may be a bit confusing at times (for me anyway) and the essay isn't hard at all.

I took 2305 & 2306 in summer 1&2. He was very fair, but class requires time. We had a weekly writing assignment, essay, final, and quizzes. Each quiz he posts a corresponding powerpoint (these can be lengthy, but replace textbook) & you can retake a quiz as many times as needed. The final exam was long, but is a small portion of your final grade.

Great, professor . You can tell he loves talking about government. Don't talk when he talk though, lol.. I took his class in the summer at the stafford campus HCC. As long as you read and complete your assignments you'll be fine. In the summer we did are quizs together so that was a plus. Good guy , I really enjoyed his class.

I enjoyed having Professor Jefferies throughout his 5 week course! Overall, there was approximately 30 quizzes, 5 exams with 60 questions each, an 1,000 word essay, and a 120 question final. It may sound overwhelming, but if you can dedicate some time to completing each assignment, reading, and utilizing your quiz retakes, you will get an easy A :)

I took Professor Jefferies' online 16-week class. He gave good feedback on all written assignments, the quizzes prepare you for the tests, and you have all semester to prepare for the 1,000-word essay. There are four grading criteria: 10 short essays, 15 chapter quizzes, three tests plus the final, and a 1,000-word essay.

I took Dr. J's 3 week course and had no issues! 3 written assignments, 4 essays, 15 quizzes, and a final exam were a part of the curriculum. I'm not sure how his on-campus courses are, but I'd recommend his online course to anyone willing to put in the work. Overall, easy A with Professor Jefferies' online course! :)

He was a good professor, although he would get off topic so much during lecture so a lot of stuff we would talk about in class was never relevant to our assignments. He grades really easy and as long as you do the work you'll get an A.

He's easy going and good convo in class. Lectures are more about current events & less about what you will be tested on. The tests come from the book. Quizzes are weekly & are based on each chapter. Occasionally he allowed for the quizzes to be done in groups, which did help some. 1k word essay due @ EOS. Read the textbook and you will pass.

I have taken his Texas government class as well as his federal government. Both were mini-mesters. I learned a lot and enjoyed it overall. As long as you do the assignments on time and the readings, you'll do great!

This class was great overall. Quizzes and tests are all HEAVILY over the textbook (like near exact). Downside is that the class lectures were pretty boring. He talks A LOT (more than needed) but has good personality. Just make sure you know when all the quizzes and tests are due and you'll be fine. Easy A. Only one full paper due at the end.

Easy Class and a very good professor.

Took dual credit @SCHS fall '21. Kevin is great; his apathy rivals that of his students, lets you leave class as long as they don't get him in trouble. If you do stay & listen ambiently he likes to ramble about the Constitution and current events that are somewhat related to material. Grades come from short writing but mostly mcq quizzes and exams.

Mr. Jeffries understands that not all of us are going to major in politics or history etc. He makes the class fun and bearable for those who are just looking to get rid of intro classes. He has a great personality, is fun, and makes students engaged. Best of all, he uses real life situations to teach the course. He does not rely on a textbook.

A lot of reading and many discussion posts. I feel like all government classes are going to be like that regardless. As a teacher he is nice, it wasn't hard.

Loved taking this class. It went at our own pace. Even though it was a mini semester with a lot of work. He gave you time and guided you when to get the assignments done so you can be prepared. He is very understanding and I would for sure take his class again.

To be honest I barely even learned anything at all from this course. I do recommend taking it online instead of in person. I hate all the tests and quizzes as they take so long to do. Just find a Quizlet with the answers he doesn't really care. but he is a funny and cool person if you choose to engage in conversation with the lesson.

Loved this professor so much. His class was incredibly easy and he is so funny. He likes to talk a lot but he goes off topic sometimes and can be funny. Easy class. Me and my friends took him for both governments!
