Comment:
Mr. James' didn't put much effort into making learning fun and keeping the students motivated. A usual meeting consisted of 100% lecture which he expected us to take notes on. 3/4 of his lectures we took notes on would not appear in his quizzes & tests. I found myself falling asleep while trying to write notes. Also, there was no group interaction.

Comment:
Mr. James is an excellent teacher and really knows his information. His class is very challenging but if you pay attention and put in the effort, it is not difficult to obtain a good grade. He is a stickler for being punctual. He is a republican and does mention it when it is pertinent but I never found it to be excessive.

Comment:
The thing about this guy is, he really does know his stuff. He recites names, dates and places without ever glancing at a book. He also recites republican right-wing ultra-conservative babble every other sentence, providing no other viewpoint whatsoever. Also, him talking for hours with no interruption does not an interesting class make.

Comment:
worst teacher ive ever had. good about giving you study guides, but whatever you do dont study the study guides. he puts random ?s on the test that arent on the s. guides. he doesnt care if you fail or not, and doesnt care if you understand the gibberish he's saying. i wouldnt recommend this teacher to my worst enemy.

Comment:
I fail to see how Republican propaganda has anything to do with this class but apparently he does because that's what he teaches. Remember this and you will get A's in his class...All through American history no democrat has done anything good and all Republicans were idols for worship. Funny how Watergate was little more than a footnote in class

Comment:
MR. James does not teach history. He teaches right wing authoritarian propoganda. The way to ace his tests is to regurgitate his own biased opinions back to him that he gives you in the lecture notes. I'm acing the class but I'm learning little more than one man's limited view of the world.

I got a B in his class, and A's on the book reports. And he's horrible. Absolutely horrendous. I never took another history class at RCC due to this guy. If you want to see just how extremely dry he is, hit his website goodhistory dot com.

Confusing teacher that is not sure of his subject. Why can't Rock Tech have real profs with doctorates like one is supposed to have post high school?

I don't get why everyone on here hates this class so bad. Not to mention, you get a study guide that has everything for the test on it. He's slow giving back stuff you turn in though.
