When I first started the class, I thought it would be interesting. The reading was fine but the tests were unfair. He expects people who are taking online classes to have 4 hours available for at least 3 tests each semester. The tests are essays about very specific questions. I recommend not taking this class with him.

Honestly, he inspired me to become an education major. He made Literature fun & relavent. He's got a great sense of humor and provokes thought. If you didn't enjoy his class, it might be because you aren't used to doing your own work. The only drawback I see in his testing is that it's impossible to cheat. (genuine former student)

i hated writing til Dr. B. His way of teaching is to encourage and be positive. He builds you up and tells you what's good about your writing before cutting you down. What i mean is he grades the grammar and everything but he makes you want to learn it because he makes you feel good about what you are writing, if that makes sense. I like him.

As far online course go (have taken several), this one left much to be desired. While there was a lot of reading as one would expect, this has nothing to do with the rating. Not recommended.

Online course...NOT easy. Never actually met the instructor but left an impression of extreme arrogance. Don't bother with this class if you don't have a SOLID understanding of college essay writing. Harsh grader. Class size started with over 16 students, mid term about 6. I passed this course,with a great deal of tutoring. Good luck!

Horribe online class. Professor was rude when I sent an email asking about a book, with his outdated class syllabus. There was so much reading and I am a great reader! I failed this class because he graded way to harsh on everything. I earned an A and B in my other classses that required papers and recieved A's on my papers from the other classes.

Dr. Baldwin is a wonderful teacher. View the lectures, follow the syllabus and join in on the discussion boards. Not a class for lazy people who post one time at the end of the week-you're wasting your time and ours. Exams are easy, your given plenty of time to complete them. Overall, great teacher! There is a lot of reading, it's literature!

JOKE. Nothing on his online lectures are tested upon, nor does he offer any extra intellectual stimulation in them. Discussion boards are boring, there is no help in understanding the material. He graded me low B and low A first couple tests, with no explanation of why he did so, the only critique he gave was "GOOD ESSAYS". I learned NOTHING.

He was of no help whatsoever in the online class. In my opinion, if you arent going to give me 100% on essay tests, at least tell me why you took points off, so I could improve. He gave NO contructive critisizm or praise. It was also hard to get in touch with him. I dont know if he focuses on his oncampus class, but DO NOT TAKE HIS ONLINE CLASS

I took his online claas. He was not helpful at all from day 1. Took a long time to answer emails. Seemed like he did not want to help. You would have to know your stuff before taking this class. I passed with a A. Although he did not grade our weekly discussion board assignments...

Very nice professor, just read what you are assigned, but make sure you do read it all, it's a lot but its worth it for the exams. Took his online class and got an "A", just read all the material and write your best on the 3 essay questions on the exams and participate in the discussions and you will do great. Recommend to everyone! easy class.

He does not participate in the class. His feed back leaves far to be desired. I recieved a 90 out of 99 on 3 essays. I asked for feed back all I got back was "A 90 IS A VERY GOOD GRADE". How is this helpful! The class is easy. If you want to learn get another teacher. He never took part in any DB or gave feedback.I plan to report him to the dean.

I took this class online. If you read the assigned readings and participate in the discussion boards you will do great. Make sure you read all the assigned readings and take some notes along the way and that will help out on the essay exams. Recommend to everyone!

I wasn't happy with him, at all. I'm in the same exact course this summer with a different professor and the assignments aren't anywhere close to being the same as his. His directions weren't clear, they were actually ridiculous. The textbook was only used to redeem yourself if you screwed up on a paper. And you still wouldn't get full credit.

He is no help what so ever. I took him online. He provides no useful feedback on essays. If you take his class you better already know how to write essays because he isn't going to teach you how.

He is very specific with what he wants and expects. Read his directions and follow them. You will not have a problem if you do those things. Watch his lectures and read the text he recommends. Go to the writing resource center and get your papers reviewed. I have really enjoyed his class and the way he teaches.

I would not take his class again. I took him online and he does not respond to emails regularly, 3 mistakes on a paper and auto F, if you make mistakes he doesn't tell you what you did wrong, so you don't know what to correct. If you get an F he tells you to go to the writing lab and THEY will tell you what you did wrong. I learned nothing from him

TERRIBLE TEACHER, GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN, NO MATTER WHAT! THE SCHOOL COUNCELORS CAN'T HELP YOU GET OUT OF THE CLASS BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS ON HIS SYLLABUS. GOT THREE MINOR ERRORS ON THE FIRST PAPER AND RECEIVED AN AUTOMATIC F AND HE REFUSED TO GRADE THE REST OF THE PAPER. VERY RUDE WHEN HE FINALLY REPLIES TO EMAILS/MESSAGES. DO NOT TAKE!!!!!!!!!

He is very specific with what he wants and expects. Read his directions and follow them. You have to quote from the text ONLY essay exams! If you text him all his return emails are in ALL CAPS!(lol) I have really enjoyed his class and the way he teaches.

Wouldn't take him again. Class is not fun or interesting. Excessive demerits for minor mistakes. If you like writing for the sake of writing this is your class. If you like learning or being inspired I would opt for another professor. Did anyone else feel like a 16yo was replying to their emails? All caps?

I'm not exactly sure how I'm doing in the course, since he isn't providing any feedback whatsoever. He did reopen a test for me for a few days after the week it was due since I was in the hospital, but he has lacking communication skills.

He's the type of professor who likes to lord the very little power afforded to him by his status of a community college professor over his students. His instructions are unclear. Unwilling to teach/work with students and is extremely rude when he chooses to reply to emails. He's used the same lectures for ten years.

I would never recommend this man to anyone. Worst teacher i have ever had.So useless. He doesn't respond to your emails. I failed to put quotes from the story on an exam, I got a 45 on the test because of that. When i asked him if there was a way to pass his class now he said, "NO, NOT REALLY." And this was supposed to be my last semester.

I turned in every assignment on time, did all of the required reading (which was great), & really enjoyed peer feedback. I ended up failing the entire course for not citing quotes properly on exams. I get the reason, but that's a huge slap in the face from the professor when he didn't communite at all or participate on the discussion board.
