He is very liberal, so if I were a conservative I wouldn't recommend him. He teaches off powerpoint, but it's kind of useless. He gives 4 tests and drops one, and a ten page project. READ THE BOOK!! Although he gives you a study guide it is worthless, all the questions are in the book. I would say he's a neutral teacher, but I'm sure there are bett

Dr. Drammeh is a great guy, but honestly a poor teacher. It's an easy class so I would take him just to get it out of the way. His lectures and pace are slow and he lets students walk all over him. He is nice and funny, just confusing with his indecisiveness. You only need the book for the project and there are 4 tests plus optional final.

Easy class. You can miss 4 days with no excuse, but after that, I guess he'll count off your grade. For our class, he made the 3 tests percentages in this order:25%, 30%, 35%. The remaining 10% went to 5 "pop" quizzes (which he told you when they were), however he drops the lowest quiz. He's funny and relaxed. Never used the book. Take him! :)

Hes a cool guy but his hybrid portion of class sucks. There were many sleepless nights this semester spent doing his discussion post which barley even matter in the end. As long as you did at least ten of them you should be good because each one is only worth one point. I still wouldnt take again.

EASY A. I took his Maymester and ended with a 95. There are 15 discussion posts and 15 quizzes (due daily but he later changed to every other day, grades on participation if y'all TRY), and one assignment. Quizzes can be be found mostly online and some are from the virtual textbook. There are 2 tests that are mostly questions from the quizzes.

There are a lot of discussions to respond to some being a little confusing. There is quite a lot of reading but with a little dedication, you should be fine. Professor Drammeh was extremely nice in all of his feedback.

This class is going to be a lot if you're not a writer. But overall this class was extremely easy to be a face pace class. All we had to do were daily discussion posts, daily quizzes, and two extra credit assignments to boost mid term and final exam grades. Also he responds to his emails asap!! TAKE HIM FOR MAYMESTER

He is passionate when it comes to his lectures. You have 15 chapter discussions, 15 quizzes (most answers can be found ), and a couple of major writing assignments. He gives you about a week for the chapters and a month or two for the writing assignments. Stay on top of your work because those deadlines will catch up to you and read the syllabus!!!

The only hard thing to keep up with was the discussions, but only because I procrastinated. He's super sweet and works with you to help understand things. Two chances on quizzes so easy 100's on those. Tests basically match quizzes. Two major writing assignments, also easy A's if you literally attempt them. LOVE THIS MAN!

Professor Drammeh is a good person and cares about you and your grade, but his lectures are awful and doesnt teach the information until after youve taken the test for it. Youre expected to teach yourself, take the test and do your discussion posts, and in class next week you review the information. You have two tests and discussions each week

The main thing that was focused on was the discussion posts. There were weekly quizzes and discussion post. It wasnt all that hard. The test were pretty easy as long as you do the reading. I wouldnt take him again because the powerpoints he provided didnt have anything to do with what we were going over.

Easy online class which involves weekly quizzes and a discussion with two responses. Pretty simple, on top of the weekly work maybe max 4 other assignments that were not difficult.

He's very good and his class is easy to take. Yes, there are a lot of discussion posts and quizzes to do but they're easy just make sure you use Quizlet. The midterm and final exams are basically 50 questions each, taken from the chapter quizzes. He's also quick to reply and grade materials. Extra credits is available. An easy A.

His class was very easy yet interesting. He is a great professor and truly cares about the subject matter. There are weekly discussions that are not that hard, and weekly lectures. If you complete those and attend class then you will pass easily. Wasn't many tests either. He is very nice and chill, great and easy class.

Weekly discussion posts can get lengthy if you aren't a fan of writing. Lectures are nearly pointless just reteaching the material you've already gone over yourself.

Super easy class, you have a quiz and discussion each week and like 2 writing assignments. each discussion is not hard because all you do it basically summarize one page from the unit with some key vocab. So easy as long as you turn things in on time. He sends out reminders daily so its not hard to forget quizzes and such. Super nice guy/professor!

Dr. Drammeh is an incredible professor, he is very passionate about the subject he teaches. There is a good chunk of reading that you need to do weekly (one chapter per week) and a 300 word discussion post, but just spread it out over the week and you'll be okay. He also offers extra credit for the midterm and final which is great.

Dr. Drammeh's class has a good amount of discussion posts and reading, but it's manageable if you stay on top of it. The lectures can be repetitive, but he's very helpful and responsive. I found Unstuck ai useful for quiz prep - saved me a lot of time.

Very nice professor and class, it was easier than my AP classes. If you just read the chapter and follow the rubric he gives getting an A is easy. He also gives extra credit for the midterm and exam (up to 5 more points) which was nice. Was very communicative and sent out weekly/daily announcements about that weeks chapter. Loved his personality.

Was literally fine until fellow student emailed about incorrect answers on midterm/final and asking about how a paper was graded and he got really upset and ended up telling the peer that he was "gracious" in his grading of their paper. He was just really passive aggressive and didn't hear anyone out.

Class consists of a discussion post, two responses, a quiz, and a chapter read weekly. You also are required to attend lectures but he only teaches on material that was due the night before, so it's pretty much self taught. It's basically a synchronous online class with required lectures.
