He's a fairly good professor. His online tests are straightforward and come directly from either his lectures, his notes, or the reading. There are only a few application problems such as the essay and such. I'd recommend taking the practice quizzes multiple times because a few of the questions come straight form there. I'd recommend him.

If I had read and listened to his lectures, read the book and really applied myself, I would have gotten an A, but I didn't and received a C. I took him online and he replied very quickly to all my emails. 5 test, 5 discussion questions, and 1 application paper on pre-selected topic. My interest in politics has increased.

Simple online class. Read his notes/lectures(which are long but very helpful, as they are repetitive which helps you remember the info), read/skim the book. 5 discussions? Take practice quizzes until confident. The 1st thing you should do is the App paper, get it out of your way! You can finish this class early.

If you read the lecture notes and skim through the readings in the book, you will do ok. Nice that there is no cumulative final!!

Dr. Little is very passionate about his subject. He answers emails really quickly. His tests are not the easiest. His review questions have little to do with the test, basically (he does tell us this). Read the chapters, then read his notes (listen to the audio!). His notes are pretty interesting. All around good professor, good online class.

Wonderful Professor to work with. Took an online class with him and got a grade higher than I expected. Very understanding and pleasant. Workload was difficult but inspiring, thanks to Professor Little. C.Smith

Took his online course. Very straight forward and simple. There are 5 40 question tests, 5 discussion boards, and one application paper. It seems like a alot but really it goes very steadily and he is willing to help and easy to get into contact with. You do need the book for exams only. I would recommend him for an online course.

I took online class of Dr.Little. There are lectures to listen, which make it interesting. I learned much more than I'd expected. If you need to take Texas Politics, I'd recommend him.

I took Dr. Little's Texas Gov. class during the summer 2012 online. If you actually try, you will pass, and probably make a good grade. I just didn't apply myself as much as I should have, ha. Discussion Boards are easy, as long as you do it - you will get a 100. Don't need textbook. Exams are easy if you take down his notes. I recommend him. :)

Took this class online. Not too hard. I actually learned which I wasn't expecting to do. I am NOT a government person, but this class was interesting.

Really easy class. There are 5 tests (including the final) that are not cumulative, 5 discussion boards that you get credit for as long as you post something thoughtful, and one short paper. Everything is open at the beginning of the semester, so you can finish tests really early so work from this class doesn't conflict with others. Recommend!

Super easy class. I had zero interest in TX politics but it was required. Read the lectures and take notes, skim the book. Tests were easy. Powerpoint was simple, application paper was easy. Material is boring but it was an easy A.

Interesting class. I was dreading taking this but the lectures are really clear and easy to understand. Some of the test questions involved questions from future chapters but it's really nothing to stress. 'B+' because browser crashed during test and deduction for missing the last test date on time. Definitely recommend.

I took this course online for my RN to BSN degree. He provides all of his notes embedded with audio files. His voice is clear and easy to listen to. VERY helpful - transcripts that were provided for the audio files and enriched the learning exp. All you need to do is read the book and study the notes. You can work ahead if need be. Great teacher!

I bought the text book and only used it a handful of times if that. Read the lectures listen to the embedded audio & you will do fine. You have a PPT presentation to do, which was easy, and a 5 pg written project. Other than that standard discussion board stuff and a quiz a week. (mostly pulled from his posted lecture and audio segments)

I took this class online. Instructions were specific but you MUST do the reading to get more than a C.

This was an easier online course than taking early civilization history online. As long as you write good enough responses to other classmates in discussions, easy 100's. As for reading the textbook, it was long to read but an enjoyable one. As for the tests, they were pretty easy. If you take POLS 2312, get this professor. ^_^

I took Dr. Little's POLS 2312 online and it was a breeze. Read the lecture notes and you will be fine. There are 5 tests, with no final. There are 5 discussions, which are extremely easy. 1 application paper which is extremely easy as well!!! Overall, his lectures are very helpful and so is he!

Tests are easy only 3 the whole semester. Must participate in discussion boards and there is one paper. There is a lot of reading and lecture notes but are directly related to tests, discussions, and paper. Overall good structure and class.

You need to read the chapters and lectures along with the audio lectures. Tests are pretty straight forward and not many assignments. One power point presentation and one research paper. He is very fair. The coaches grade according strictly to the rubric, so if you follow the rubric you will do great.

Professor Little could be a brother to Dr. Phil. Test are on the tougher side, read the materials, listen to the lecture, take the exam reviews many many times each will help tremendously!!! Would definitely take again!

If you don't get an A or B--you put in Zero effort. Ya, the tests aren't on Quizlet but you can keyword search the lecture. The 3 "papers" you write aren't tough. Took me like 3 hours each. Tests aren't too bad. I've got an A right now...2 weeks to go. There is a bunch of reading though. It's not a tough course though.

Easy class and very manageable! 8 tests, 5 discussions, and 1 paper. Reading the notes does help but really all you need to do for the tests is control search in the lecture notes and textbook sometimes and you are certain to get an A. The test questions can be confusing but if you email him about them he is very willing to give points back!

I was apprehensive about taking this class because I usually struggle with history/government. However, I learned so much from this class and loved it. I took it as a 8wk online course- 8 tests, 3 essays, and 4 discussions. I recommend just reading his notes and listening to his short audio clips because I never read the book after the 1st test.

Taken as a five week online course over the summer. Even though it was at a faster pace, Dr. Little gave clear guidlines needed to pass with an A. Keep up with his lectures and videos and I found it easier to also read the book. Test can be a little confusing, but he is very open to correcting them if needed. Great feedback. Truly Caring.

Tons of reading with 3 major assignments, discussion questions and weekly quizzes. I have to admit though, I enjoyed the class. Every single unit read was interesting. I'd definitely take a class with this professor again.

Honestly, I never read or studied, so with that said, maybe read the book and lectures to get better than Bs on the tests.

8 exams. 1 paper. 5 discussion posts. Really doable. The written lectures might seem super long but they are completely readable during commercial breaks while watching favorite shows. Exams are easy as long as you read written lectures at least once before exam. Paper is super easy. Few bad grades and still make A if you good on paper/discussions.

Assignments are clear and spaced out. Lecture readings are engaging and fun to read based on the material. Can work ahead if you feel like it. Tests can be slightly tricky with the wording. Written lecture portion will have all necessary information. Never used the book.

Took 5-week summer session online. 8 tests, 10% of your grade each. Just know the material from his written lectures on canvas and you will be good to go in this class. The tests can be tricky with wonky wording so be careful. My final grade will be 97% as I had a very high test average from careful reading and study.

This class is doable if you work. You will want to take this class by itself. There is a lot of reading and a few papers. If you read the notes and follow the rubric, you are sure to pass this class. I actually learned a lot about Texas politics. I would take a class with this professor again.

Bummed that I received 89.5. Hahaaa! Next time! An "A" is very obtainable. Very nice and funny lecture videos. Clear communication.

It is a fast paced class but totally manageable. The test are timed with 45 minutes to complete 25 questions. Lockdown browser is required for all 8 test. I really learned a lot from this class and would recommend it for future students.

This is definitely one of the easiest classes I've ever taken. The exams are on lockdown but if you just read the stuff in Canvas and listen to the audio he posts there, you're gonna do great in the class. I'm a nursing major and usually have anything to do with history or government, but I 100% recommend this class and would 100% take it again.

Prof. Little has probably had the best setup of any instructor I've had during COVID. Work is self paced, readily accessible for questions, lectures are a mix of reading and audio. Would definitely take again.

Government is a difficult class for me but the way this course was set up I was able to focus and pass. The lectures notes are there and you need to make sure you read in order to be able to prepare for the test. Also there was a paper but as long as you read the criteria and not procrastinate its doable

This Professor cares a lot about the education of a student. I communicated with him about my struggles as a college student and he was so understanding. His modules can be long but they are very interesting. His test are also very to the point and connected to the modules.

There are 8 units, all are divided up by different canvas readings. The two longest had 35 but the others had low 20s. Each unit has a test and every four units has a discussion post that are easy points, there is one signature assignment (essay) given based off last name. No textbook is required he writes his own and provides them!

There are many lectures, but the information is pretty easy to handle. It will take a while to get through the lectures but that's summer classes. The tests can be extreme and sometimes have questions that arent in the notes. Other than that this class was really a breeze and he does a good job of keeping his commentary interesting.

Took him online during the summer and honestly such an easy class as long as you put in the effort and set aside time to do the readings! Was a five week course with about two quizzes every week and about four or five discussion posts that arent graded heavily. Great class and an amazing and straightforward professor!

There is ALOT to read but he also provided audio clips to give you a better explanation within the text. I enjoyed his class, i think the best way to get an A is to do his practice questions before every unsupervised ONLINE exam. BUT The practice exams have mistakes and you might shuffle through the same question 2 times both with different answer.

Great online, graded off a handful of discussion boards, a paper, and eight chapter tests. No midterm, no final, no attendance since its asynchronous. First two or three chapter tests were really hard, but the rest level out and become fairly consistent. Read all of the posted lecture notes (though they can be outdated at times) and you'll be fine!

My easiest class. Lectures can seem overwhelming-I just printed them out. No book-that's a plus. Exams are off lecture notes. There are 4 discussions and 1 paper, easy peasy. Make an effort in your discussions w/responses, and follow rubric in your paper, you will be fine. 8 exams at 45mins each, w/25 questions each. I would take his class again.

There are 8 exams that need a Lockdown browser and are very difficult if you don't study. You cannot find most of the answers even from the quizlet. You don't need a textbook because he uploads all lecture readings on canvas. Lots of readings and 1 signature essay are required.

I wouldn't really call his class lecture heavy, they're more like online notes you have to read. He does have about 8 online tests that you're required to take and plenty of time to finish them (never got less than a 92). The tests are easy enough with only a handful of difficult questions. The class is only difficult is you're lazy.

There is a lot of reading, four discussion posts, a signature assignment, and eight exams over the course of five weeks, but if you put in the time and effort, you should be able to get an A.

took during the summer, and lectures were easy if you dedicated time to read them. lectures had some typos / grammatical errors. unit exams were 25 questions with 45 minutes to complete, and if you do the practice exam, you will likely pass. i enjoyed reading the lectures and the jokes he cracked in them too.

Really easy class in my opinion and an easy A. Genuinely all you have to do is actually read and maybe study 30 minutes before each exam. Professor Little was great with feedback especially with the signature assignment. The discussion assignments were also very easy.

Some of the Written Lectures had audio from his In-Person Class, which I liked. Some of the quiz questions were quite niche. I had an issue with being flagged for AI when I wasn't, so keep proof by writing in Google Docs and showing your history. I got my grade reversed, but it sucked dealing with that. Overall, good teacher and okay course.

Prof. Little is really great, or at least the online course he made is. It really felt as though the walls of text he posted for the course material were an actual lecture. I'm pretty sure he typed every single one himself. Really easy to understand, and definitely a interesting topic, and he stayed pretty non-partisan the whole way through. W prof

He really does seem to like teaching and the recorded + written lectures are great! His practice tests however are really annoying since they use outdated questions and thus don't gouge anything. For the actual unit tests, they aren't too difficult but there are overly specific questions and some that are tricky. Overall good.

POLS2312 is an online course, and everything is clearly stated on the syllabus or in Canvas. Each unit was spread apart so there is plenty of time to do the notes and learn the material. I highly recommend this course if it is required since this was the easiest online course I have ever taken!

Pretty easy class if you stay on top of things. Professor Little is fair and clear with what he expects. Quizzes and assignments are straightforward, and he doesn't make things harder than they need to be. Good option if you're looking to pass without too much stress. Quiz and exams are similar, he also offers practice test as well.

not too bad. just keep up with the homework and quizzes and you should be good.

Easy to get along with, responds quickly and grades easy.

I took this course online over summer for 5 weeks and really enjoyed it. The lectures are super interesting. He organzied the course really well and had very clear rubrics. My advice would be to asnwer questions thoroughly on the discussions and study the practice questions. Would definitely recommed taking his course.

Really chill guy, definitely recommend if your taking this class over the summer!

This class was online, but I still feel I learned a lot from the written lectures Dr. Little provided; he also included helpful audio in the lecture notes. The only assignments were 8, 25-question exams biweekly, a signature assignment essay, and a couple of discussion posts, but they were all straightforward and based on the material.
