He is the best teacher. i dont get bored in the class i enjoy going every day

LOVED this professor. He will accomodate to your needs. I was never very interested in history but he had group discussions and that made class go by quicker. I took this class as a night class and I think I missed it only one time due to illness! I reccomend him if you are ready for a challenge though.

He spends the two hours giving notes that he projects onto the screen-- what stinks is that he won't put them on D2L before class, so if you're like me and need to write down explanations in the margins, you have to write down all his notes.Gives you a 10 minute break if you take his 2-hr class. Non-tolerant of talking, passing notes, cheating, etc

One of the best teachers I have ever had. Of course he was none tolerant of cheaters, talkers, note passers, but a teacher shouldn't have to put up with that it and neither should the students that are there to learn. I took all of his classes, and learned so much from them that I decided to major in history. I would recommend him for sure!

He's very specific on what he wants but gives way to much homework. grades pretty easily except for exams.

He is very knowlegable, funny, quirky, interesting. He has high expectations and you should be serious. Lots of reading, tests are easy if you are prepared (essays). I liked this class a lot!

He is good but very demanding...and give lot of work...

Great Instructor! I never liked history and he made it much more interesting and tolorable. Definately recommend

A lot of writing and reading in this class. Very particular with the writing assignments. Tests are not too tough if you're prepared.

I loved his class.

This class is an easy A if you are prepared to write. There is a writing assignment every week and two large papers. I went to every class and never read the book, just take good notes.

Excelent teacher and overall class. I have learned a lot about Mn History from this class and would recomend it to anyone. Fair amount of reading for the class but the reading will give you an A in the class.

Sets a high standard for submission of written work (grammar and content). Class points divided well between minor writing assignments, major writing assignments, exams, and lecture participation. Lecture and Q&A style present as somewhat intimidating & critical but you may find it kind of funny and insightful by the end--then again, you may not.

R. Frame = talented historian and teacher. he will require that you READ and WRITE a good deal... Oh Dear, who could have predicted THAT! It's a HISTORY CLASS you jagoffs! Slackers take your lazy arses elsewhere - this is COLLEGE. I found his self-deprecating style thoughful, charming and very engaging. your milage may vary.

amazing teacher, and a very fun class! a lot of reading and writing, but he grades pretty easy. and he is hilarious!

It didn't really matter if you came to this class or not because the stuff he talked about never prepared you for the tests!hard to figure out what to do for assignments& tests because the directions were unclear. Would not reccommend taking the 4 hr night class it took forever to go by! I liked him as a person just not his teacher bad teaching st

A LOT of assignments. Discussions take up a lot of your time. He is very precise about grammar - even in discussions. Will take off points for minor mistakes. This class is hard, but if you put in effort you will pass. He is very clear in directions, which is nice. Would recommend to those who are willing to work HARD. Not an easy class.

Frame knows his stuff and expects his students to as well. This was a difficult, but educational class. I learned far more than I expected to. The class was challenged to think critically instead of just memorizing names and dates. I recommend this class for someone who actually wants to learn, but be forewarned that it is not a slack-off course.

This class was difficult but I learned more than a typical class. You have to actually read and think. Not just memorize dates. Mr. Frame does expect students to write at college level (is that really bad?) and I appreciated that. It helped me improve my writing skills. It was an honor taking him! If you're looking for an easy A, don't take.

I learned more about writing in his class than from my freshman composition class. Excellent teacher. He asks that you critically examine the reading material, not just read the words. He can seem challenging for slackers. However, I would recommend him.

Professor Frame is by far one of the best history professors! AVOID Chuck Chalberg he is horrific and has serious ego issues. I switched to Proffesor frame and learned more in his class rather than chuck. STRONGLY SUGGGEST PRFFESSOR FRAME!!

Class was very interesting and my writing improved significantly. You learn to analyze the material instead of just skimming over it for a summary. I would take this class again!

Not traditional history class - be prepared - goal is not to just learn dates, but learn WHY things happened and how/why history was changed. I loved it! Great guy, if you read and pay attention you will do fine! If you prefer classes you just have to memorize dates, and not learn the full picture, this is not the class for you.

I loved this class! Professor Frame makes history interesting. He doesn't care if you remember names or dates as long as you can understand why something happened. Be prepared to do all your homework- he has no hesitation calling you out in class. Nonetheless, I loved the class (US History I) and I would love to take another class with Frame.

I took this class as a hybrid course, and we met for four hours on Saturdays. Homework was an okay amount. Typically it was one or two chapters a week, with a ten point open book quiz, a few primary documents with one analysis and summary, and two online discussion posts. There was one paper and two exams, but we took both at home. Must participate

He is the best online teacher I've ever had. Super responsive and keeps the class interesting. He wants you to succeed. The work is decently challenging, as usual, but I looked forward to seeing the class discussions. Very clear cut schedule and grading - easy to fit into a busy lifestyle. If you need to take an online course, take it with Frame!

LGBT U.S. History was a discussion based classed so participation mattered a lot. He isn't afraid to call students out and ask them questions. He's super nice and helpful if someone needs to speak to him. By far one of my favorite professors at Normandale.

Robert is an amazing professor. He is clear, concise, funny and he asks you to think outside the obvious. I appreciated this method very much. You write a paper a week, but this is college and they are not long nor hard. I would take any of Roberts classes if given the opportunity.

I took Prof Frame in my first semester back in years. He's not easy to be sure, But my study and writing skills improved dramatically from him.

He grades you on participation, but if you're an introvert, like me, you can still get an A in the course if you do well on the homework,quizzes, and tests. A lot of reading and writing. He's a nice guy. This was a 4 hour night class, and the class can be a little boring at times.

He was VERY fair on his grading of papers. The condensed summer course didn't allow me time to edit before submission. His feedback was INCREDIBLE & helped me become a better writer. His teaching style forces you to learn! You won't come to class unprepared as his teaching style forces your involvement. Sometimes a bit snippety, but I found funny

Professor Frame is an amazing professor. He is sincere and gives solid feedback on papers. He is also very approachable and can be pretty funny during class (prepare for quite a few jokes). I'd definitely take one of his classes again. Also, be sure to read your textbook when it's assigned. The information learned will be invaluable for tests.

Lectures could use visual aid Very funny Extremely nice, I had a difficult time at home with discrimination/transphobia and was unable to finish a paper on time, so I emailed him about it and he gave me another full week to finish the paper for full points.

Weekly quizzes AND weekly 1-2 page summaries on readings. You don't have to really put that much effort into them to get a good grade, but still time consuming. Tough papers, fair grader. Seems extremely rude when you first meet him, but you get used to his "sense of humor." Only two exams throughout the semester, but they have essay portions.

Kind and funny professor. I Took a learning community class with him and Anna meek, you will be doing a fair amount of homeworks but its not something too difficult. Hes always willing to help and is very understanding . Also worth mentioning most of the work you're doing is based on your understanding , so there isnt a right or wrong answer.

The course itself wasn't difficult, but his grading style largely affected my grade. He was very particular in what he wanted but wouldn't be very specific in feedback unless you asked specifically about it. The course is mainly talking about historical events and context, with textbooks being used every class. He isn't a bad guy, bad grader.

he is nothing like what other people describe him to be on this site. He is very caring and wants you to participate. He looks like he loves teaching and is very knowledgeable on American history. When switching online classes, he made the transition very smooth and gives feedback on EVERYTHING. If you do everything, he will treat you with respect.

He really does care about the students and will give good feedback. Just gotta show up to class and pay attention and you will do fine. Theres a decent amount of reading and a pretty funny guy. I personally felt like I learned a lot about not only history but even writing itself.

I loved this class, it was LGBT History. It was a great class taught by a great professor! He was very clear about the things we needed to do and how they needed to be done. He was respectful of students and our ideas, he was engaged with us and the discussions (online, because of COVID). I learned a lot in this class and would def recommend.

There was a decent amount of assignments per week but sometimes he would drop an assignment if he thought it was too much. It takes some time to get used to his requirements but they are very manageable. There were two papers and you get a chance for peer review. Overall, if you do the work it is easy to get an A.

Robert Frame made history fun, which is hard to do. A decent amount of work in the class, but if you participate and use the resources given, it is an easy A. Would definitely take the class again

History can be a nightmare but Frame makes it enjoyable. You'll read a lot because that's where the information is, in the text book. You'll get great writing feedback from him. See him during office hours and you'll learn so much more. He loves talking but that's his job.

He has a lot of knowledge and I like that his course focussed a lot on groups that have been so often forgotten or parts of history glossed over in the past. He brings in a lot of great resources and grades fairly. For my class there was a lot of writing and quizzes were pretty specific and could be difficult, but not overly difficult.

Nice teacher, long lectures, lots of reading expected but every test or essay is easy because he gives Clear instructions and well prepared

I see why a lot of students in my class were not too fond of Professor Frame. He expects quality work and respect from students; he was not happy when students were late or when participation was low. Yet, he was a leader. Pushing students to analyze history themselves. He is willing to help any student, he ensures that all students are learning.

Overall great teacher, you can tell he cares about his job. I had no problem getting an A, just do the work and pay attention in class. Lectures are a little long but not too bad. He is a little pretentious in the way he talks but that's okay, he is very knowledgeable on history.

I took this class in 2019 when I was a high schooler doing PSEO, & it honestly isn't that hard if you put at least some effort into the class. Prof Frame is very clear about what he expects & even gives you an exam study guide. Spend a few hours outside of class & you'll pass with an A. Do the practice problems, it's exactly what's on the exam!!

Honestly just show to class on time and do the online work and you will get a good grade. Assignments were not necessarily hard as everything was open textbook and it was relatively easy to find answers. Professor Frame was also super nice and helpful whenever I needed help! He lectures a lot, but the lectures are important and you learn a lot.

Took USH1 hybrid, one 5 page essay, 2 written exams, 5 short quizzes, but most your grade is in weekly discussion posts (1 paragraph) grading is lenient. easy a if you turn everything in, need to do a fair amount of reading though. frame is super nice, taking USH2 this year. he takes attendance but it doesnt rly mean anything, no phones in class.

prof frame is great!! in us1, your grade is based of source summary and analysis assignments, quizzes, weekly discussion posts, and 3 essays (midterm, slavery, final). he often drops the source assignments if he feels like people need a break or just for the fun of it for thanksgiving break or whatever. he's great, would def take again!

Super passionate about LGBT history, but this class is NOT an easy A. He's great with assignment feedback and responds to emails quickly. 3 discussion posts per week + you have to read everyone else's posts. Discussions were interesting, but can be difficult. Coursework has both quality and quantity - do not fall behind!

Professor Frame was an amazing professor, he will respond and is very helpful however grading is strict, you may not understand his directions at first but will eventually. There is a lot of reading out of the American Yawp and other sources which are very informative listening to an audio version helped a lot. u will do 2 discussion post a week.

I'm a PSEO student and took this class for my history requirement. His classes while informative are also a bit of a snooze fest, mostly 1-2 hours of just talking with little to no engagement with the class during lectures. He did some activities to help with content knowledge which was good, and he gave great feedback.

There's a few papers but LOTS of discussions. He is an average grader, follow the instructions and you will be fine. With my class, he took off a bigger essay and changed the final points from 50 to 20. I haven't had any personal connection with the guy but he seems so understanding and nice and I get the feeling he genuinely cares about you.

Professor Frame is an outstanding instructor who excels in clarity and feedback. His grading criteria are straightforward, ensuring students know exactly what's expected. He provides detailed, constructive feedback on assignments, helping students improve. I would 100% recommend a class with professor Frame for positive learning experience.

Professor Frame runs a structured class, but engaging with the system pays off. Textbook readings and discussion posts are key, and Unstuckstudy can help streamline study prep. Overall a solid course.
