nice teacher, took the online class and he made mandatory chat times once a week, long final paper, pretty basic assignments, interesting class

I've taken 2 classes with Tino and would gladly take another. He's really good at challenging u on everything u thought u know. His classes make u think, and the assigned readings have caused my head to ooze pain more than once, but Tino has a way of putting the difficult stuff into lamens terms.

Dr. Dibernardo is incredibly intellegent and knows a lot about the subjects he teaches. He is a fair grader and makes class discussions interesting.

nice, cute, wants you to understand, interesting, easy online

He's cute, which always makes for a fun class. He's also very smart and very helpful. His online classes are also very good! I won't say he's an easy A but I will say that he's fair and he gives you plenty of chances to get ahead and get a good grade.

Dr.D is a very understanding, very clear teacher. He is definitely one of the best in the philosophy department. His online classes are a breeze and very interesting. He has very informative(OPTIONAL) chats weekly that can really help in understanding. I would recommend Dr.D to anyone interested in a philosophy course.

This semester was mostly self-paced. He said that he changed his online methods based on feedback and it seems to be great now!2 tests, the mid-term and final, 5 journals and 5 posts.Pretty easy.Only downside is we don't get to know the other students in the class, but for me, getting a good grade is more important. He's a great guy and teacher!

An interesting class and a good teacher. He lets you know everything that you need to and really knows what he is talking about. I would recommend him in a heartbeat.

Tino's my hero. He rocks. The subject matter is difficult but he knows it extremely well. More importantly, he'll help you know it. I'd take him for anything.

I highly recomend Dr D. have had two courses with him thus far and plan to take more. Online format is easy to follow and laid back, letting you work at your own pace. Pretty cut and dry- no suprises. Great Professor!

Seems alright so far. It's an online course, so you can't really expect MUCH from a professor.

My favorite teacher so far at UCF. Trying to take more of his classes. Easy A if you pay attention, he explains things very clear. Also makes class fun, shows great YouTube videos to keep us interested.

Took this class online. It was alright, but I wasn't a big fan of the subject material. Most of the readings seemed one-sided.

Dr. D is really awesome. His online class PHI 3684, Ways of Living class was really great. His grading is fair, take Dr. D's class, you'll maybe even find some insight on philosophy.

I love Dr. D. Would highly recommend his classes. Easy to stick to online. Keep up with the reading and you should do fine.

You will not find an easier online professor. And by easy, I don't mean the material. It's philosophy/religion; it's bound to be dense. But his schedules are VERY easy to follow, and it's your own fault if you fall behind. This is my third class with him, and it has been the best one yet!

Dr D is great! I took his class online, and his feedback on discussion posts was great! He really seemed interested in what I had to say, and was easy to talk to as well! Although I didn't enjoy a lot of the course readings, the flexible schedule made the class pretty convenient, and nothing was overly difficult. I'd take another class with him! :)

Great online class. Easy to follow. A bit of reading but not ridiculous. Schedule is solid. Recommend him highly, wish I would have taken more classes with him.

Dr. Dibernardo is my favorite professor. He is extremely helpful, and wants to get to know his students. I took his Contemporary Hum course online, and was amazed how easy and crystal clear he had made everything. I've already signed up for 2 more courses with him. Take him!

Dr. D is my favorite professor I've had at UCF. He's very nice and extremely helpful. I've signed up for one of his classes for the Fall just because I enjoy his classes. Take him!

I find it tragic that some of his classes are online-only, he's really an engaging, amusing, vibrant and sharp talker/listener. The online tests and reflection posts aren't too hard if you read and use the book. It's the 8 page research paper that will take you a little work. Great class, challenging and relevant reading material, fun stuff.

Online. Not for everyone! Do not take this class if you cannot have strong philosophical arguments. There is a lot of reading so you DO have to buy the book. Also, pay attention to what you read, very important! There are weekly posts. The final is cumulative. All in all, great professor and great class!! :D

challenging subject= challenging class. Great Teacher: Prof. D is quirky, engaging, helpful and fair. attendence is mandatory as the class discussions supplement the reading and help to clarify otherwise confusing concepts. defintely NOT an easy A, but not impossible either. The most challenging class i've ever taken but also the most rewarding

I love Dr. D! He is such a sweet guy. He sends me messages sometimes telling me how good my posts are, which is encouraging! His classes are interesting. I currently have two classes with him & even though they are not easy, I'm glad I'm taking them! I would definitely recommend Dr. D for any & every class! I'm taking more classes with him soon :)

He is a very nice and understanding professor. He is helpful with his students. However, I'm not a fan of his grading scale. I took his class online, and the grade that shows up in the grade book isn't necessarily the grade that you have. This could be a technical issue, but then again it only happened in his class. Still a good teacher, though.

Very helpful teacher, responds promptly and grades easy! take him

One of the best professors UCF has! His classes are interesting, and I love how he grades on a point system. He always gives you feedback for your work, and responds to questions promptly. I've taken him before in a hybrid style class; I wish he'd teach more of those. Definitely take one of his classes if you get the chance!

Test are hard, straight from the book. You HAVE to read the book and know it b/c test are timed. Other than that great class ! offered extra credit so I went from a B to an A-

Dibernardo is dynamic, engaging and helpful. If you want to learn about religion, you need to take this guy. He is crazy open-minded and always takes everyone else's opinions into account. He's not an easy A, but you will learn so much more from him than most other professors at UCF or anywhere. I recommend him like crazy!

Oh Dibernardo! I have taken him every semester for online classes and his online courses are very predictable in that the setup is all the same. Normally there is a discussion and a quiz each week from the select chapters and sometimes a short 500 word essay related to the topic. I highly recommend this course and all his online courses.

One of the best assets UCF has! Dr. D's classes are awesome! I have also taken him for 3 semesters in a row! His classes are predictable which is awesome! I know what I am getting myself into! He responds very quickly and is very understanding and grades fairly! If you have Dr. D heading your Minor's department (like I do) you are very lucky!

Dr. D., is one of my two favorite professors at UCF. He is so willing to go the extra mile and help explain any and everything. I have taken four classes with Dr. D., and would take many more if I had not just graduated. Any class with this professor is one I would recommend. He has truly contributed to my life in a profound way! Take him.

the professor is really nice and understanding The class has a basic structure of one quiz and one 400 word essay due every other week. If you read, put in the time / effort the class is an easy B. Just stay on top of the work and get the textbook

Read. Read. Read and take notes and good highlights. Very hard to pass if you do not read the books or make an effort. Everything was due at 4pm so watch out for that.

Dr. Dibernardo is one of the finest professors at UCF. I have taken three courses with him (all online). His policies are designed for students' success. Instead of having assignments due at midnight, he extends them to noon the next day so us procrastinators can still get them in. No busy work - all assignments are relevant. Fantastic professor.

If you read the chapters (usually 4 chapters for two weeks) you will pass no problem. If you have questions or concerns or need extra time, within reason, he is so willing and eager to help. My favorite professor at UCF so far I've already taken 3 of his classes. A's in all 3 ) Responds quickly to messages and emails!!

Great professor; he honestly cares about the success of his students. Incredibly easy to get a hold of outside of class, and always gives great feedback. He gave an excellent extra credit assignment!

DiBernardo was a great professor and gave great feedback on all assignments. He is not an easy A. You HAVE to read in order to get an A in this class. His summer course consisted of a ton of reading and if I didn't read, I would do bad on the quiz. Gave a great extra credit assignment that allowed me to end up with an A+ instead of an A-

dr.d is awesome! he gives great feedback on written responses & i can easily say this class really made me think. he gets back to you really quick in emails. i don't recommend taking this class during summer b, too much reading for 6 weeks. the tests are word for word from the texts so either read it or be really good at skimming like i was.

Amazing prof! 3 books. 3 chapters every 2 weeks. First week you post 2 questions to the discussion and second week you answer another students question (first and last week is an essay). Reading material is interesting and understandable, really gets you thinking. Loved this class, taking him next semester for modernity as a philosophical problem.

Dr D Is my favorite professor of all time! I will be taking my 5th course with him in the fall as I graduate. His teaching style is based on your comprehension of reading material and your ability to make sense of those readings with respect to your responses and opinions of the readings. Always responds back quickly and is a pleasure to work with.

Professor DiBernardo philosophy class is straight to the point. His quizzes directly come from the readings assigned. Answers to quizzes not online but you can score well by skimming through the readings!He grades discussions based on reading fairly easy! Grammar on discussion points are important! He responds to emails quick! highly recommendable!

The easiest A you can receive. Skim the books and you'll find the quiz answers. Discussion posts and writing assignments are graded by such easy rubric requirements.

100% recommend this professor! No final, no big papers, and the reading assignments are interesting and understandable. No textbook needed but two inexpensive philosophy books are required for assignments.

Easy A . However be prepared for lotssss of reading.

The professor has a clear structure for the class. Discussion one week the quiz the next and then repeat. I enjoyed the class and the "textbooks" are actually two short books. The course is simple and easy to follow. Great class and the professor grades super quick! Love that. His assignments are due on Tuesdays at 6PM.

He is very helpful and understanding

Had him for PHI 2010 online over the summer and he was incredible. Very kind, not too hard of a grader. You will read a lot so you will need to buy the text

If you are looking for the GEP, TAKE THIS CLASS! Do not skip any assignments, he is a fairly easy grader as long as you put in a decent amount of effort. There is no final or midterm for the class. Best class, great professor.

Professor DiBernado provided amazing philosophical readings with opinion-based assignments! He is also very caring and understanding if/when you are in situations that may have caused you to miss an assignment. He is very willing to help any student out, as long as he is reached out to!

Even though I got a B in this class that was all on my part for missing deadlines, but if I had been on top of my work I could've gotten an A for sure. The coursework is actually very interesting, and there's easy opinion-based assignments that he gives nice feedback on plus there are no long/stressful assignments. Really nice guy overall:)

I took this class online and all you needed for the course was a book I rented at the UCF library for like $10. The only things we needed to do for this course were a discussion post, a quiz, and a response every like two weeks, with no final exam. He really cares for his students and responds quickly to emails. Great guy and easy class!

I took this as an online course. Quizzes com straight from the book and it's timed but open book. Every couple weeks there is a quiz and a discussion post. Dr.D is quick to respond to emails, and always willing to help. He even offered extra credit before the final assignments were due. Literally do the reading get the A easy.

Dr. D is the best! He gives a lot of feedback, responds to emails, and has really interesting readings. It's philosophy so there is obviously a lot of self-reflections and good amount of writing but super easy. The book is used a lot! Assignments are due every two weeks so you have enough time to do all the work! He even gave extra credit. Got 94%

Incredible professor. He does a fantastic job at getting you to care and learn about the course material. Super responsive and helpful. Do yourself a favor and take this class if you need the GEP requirement or a course to take.

Easy/interesting/no stress/great professor. He cares about grades and will discuss/help you understand the lesson. He grades easy, it's based off of your effort/proof of understanding. Mainly discussions, really short essays, quizzes. It is a little bit of reading, but you can easily skim the required book. He provides videos that are fast/helpful.

Dr. Sabatino Dibernardo is one of my all time favorite professors and her Philosophy of Religion class is so well done. I totally recommend her as she is caring, supportive, and a top-class educator.

The same 3 assignments are due every week, a short response, discussion post, and short quiz. As long as you do the assignments you will pass, he is a pretty nice grader and it would be hard to fail this class. Only took me maybe an hour or two a week to complete all the work.

You will definitely learn from the course but it also will not take up much of your time. Dr. Dibernardo is super caring and happy to help with anything you don't understand. A discussion question and response, self reflection, and quiz are due every two weeks. The book is required but skimming to find answers is doable.

super nice and understanding prof. class was really easy and not time consuming. i hate philosophy but i still managed to enjoy this class

Professor Dibernardo's course is a great choice for anyone looking to learn about philosophy. He clearly cares about his students and often sends encouraging feedback. I'm excited to take another course with him.

The "textbook" was just a book you could rent for $12 from the UCF bookstore. He was a really nice guy and would always leave comments on my assignments. They were due biweekly and it was always a discussion, a response to someone else's discussion, a quiz, and a small writing on your understanding. Very doable. No extra credit though

Every module will have readings, a quiz, your own discussion post, and then either an essay or a discussion on another classmate's work. I thought the books were really interesting, but sometimes the amount of reading is divided poorly. The quizzes are not that bad, and questions are typically in order and/or just reworded parts of the books.

Class is not hard or time consuming. I found the content extremely interesting and easy to grasp. An easy grader, however, you can not slack off and miss an assignment/quiz because he does not give extensions or extra credit. No midterm or final.

Had the assignments posted well in advance and they were due on the same day each week. Not too much work and not too difficult to complete the week's work the day the assignments are due. Lots of reading but most of the articles were free to find online, so I never bought the recommended textbook.

Great professor, she's constantly giving feedback. Her class isn't that difficult but can be tricky at times to understand if you don't read everything. But even if you don't, you can still pass with an A.

Very easy class. One discussion and quiz per week that were based on the readings and videos. Class isn't difficult at all. Just do the readings assigned (even skim reading works) and it should be an easy A.

Easiest class and teacher I have ever taken. Great for a GEP requirement. Two short writing assignments and a quiz every two weeks. He also gives feedback on all assignments you turn in.

You can tell he likes philosophy, makes it extra interesting if you're actually interested in philosophy.

Great teacher and interesting material. Each module was open for 2 weeks. For the first week of the module, a discussion post was due; second week, a reflection and quiz were due. Everything was based on provided material/textbook The professor gives you plenty of time to complete assignments and also gives feedback on all assignments you turn in.

There were only 21 assignments the semester and 7 of them were tests. There is a book for the class that is only $20, but I never used it. All the writing assignments are easy, but the tests are hard and hard to study for. They are all only 14 questions and make or break your grade. Two small extra credit opportunities, but not enough to help.

Super easy class. No exams, just a self-reflection + quiz + discussion post for each module. Optional extra credit is offered too. He responds very fast to emails and is a caring professor. A little bit of writing, as all discussions and reflections have word count requirements, but no papers or essays.

Online class. The book required can be borrowed to two hours at a time from the John Hitt library. The only assignments were a 300 word self-reflection (usually opinion based) and a 14 question quiz, both assigned every two weeks. No final. Super easy class to take for credit.

One of the easiest classes I've ever taken. In every two week period there was one quiz and one 300 word writing assignment on the readings and videos, no tests at all. Highly recommend this class with this professor for a GEP fulfillment.

Professor Dibernardo was very organized and kind, & his class was a great option for an elective. Expect to read a few chapters weekly and take one short quiz & response question. Not hard & quite interesting, definitely recommend!

Professor Dibernardo is perhaps one of the most relaxed professors you'll ever have. For his online introductory to philosophy course, there are only seven modules with two easy assignments due every other week. There is no final exam. Super understanding and chill professor would 100% take him if you have other classes with a heavy workload.

Just read this! Professor makes the course very easy to pass.. an assignment a week; either a Discussion post of 100 words and 200 word response to someone else, as well as a quiz the next week. Basically a Module every two weeks. Spend maybe 40 minutes a week on the class. Professor is very lenient and understanding. Take this class for your GEP.

I took this course online and it's one of the easiest I've taken. Only two assignments due every monday at 12pm. One discussion post and one quiz. He is very responsive and always provides feedback on each assignment. The material is easy too, I took this as a gep and if you need an easy one just take this one, specifically online.

Great guy, loves when he sends me messages after I do good on his quiz's.

goat. pretty hard to fail unless you just don't do any of the work.

Very chill class, if your looking to just fill your GEP requirement and cruise by a class this is the one. One assignment a week for 7 modules, first week assignment of the module is a discussion, second week is a quiz. Very easy to add this class to a heavy loaded semester. Trust, take this class.

Very easy class, no reason you shouldn't get an A. Class consists of one assignment per week which is a discussion, and if not, a quiz. Discussions take about 30-40 minutes to complete once a week. professor congratulates you on high quiz scores. I highly recommend taking this class, very low workload and is easy. Great GEP to complete.

Pretty solid class. I took this over summer A so there were no discussion posts, only a quiz and 300 word essay based on the reading for the week every week. Readings were pretty interesting but slightly confusing sometimes. There was no final for it, but that might just be a summer thing. Take this class if you want to get an easy GEP credit.

Very nice professor, easy assignments and he's extremely understanding with bad circumstances. He gave me a lot of extra days to finish work I missed due to being in the hospital and was very active in checking my health after I had surgery. Very awesome guy and I would recommend taking him whenever you can.

Very doable for a short online summer class. Readings were interesting and not crazy long. You do have to buy a small book. Just a weekly quiz and short writing assignment. Lenient grading and reasonable expectations. I found the content very enjoyable. If you put honest effort into the work, you'll do well. Highly recommend. :-)

Dr. DiBernardo is amazing! He gives good feedback. The videos that he provides to assess are interesting, and some of them are actually funny! I enjoy a healthy debate, and Dr. D. ensured that we stayed respectful of each other's views. I enjoyed every moment of this class, and I highly recommend this course AND this professor!

Dr. Dibernardo was one of my favorites! This was the first class I've taken counting towards my major, and I would definitely take another course with him! He is very clear in what is required as part of the class and very communicative. He responds almost immediately and gives good feedback on tests and discussions.
