Ronny boy is the man. I failed every test and still got a B. Lab and attendance is what holds most of your grade. Lab grade is an easy A as long as you show up. Clicker quizzes and pop quizzes almost every day in class. 2 tests 1 final. No lab final. I never looked at the text book, prob would've done better if I had.

Comment:
Ron genuinely loves teaching, loves the topics that he teaches, and cares very much about his students. Really great professor to learn from, as long as youre willing to listen and take notes! All the information you get is from him speaking, powerpoint slides usually only have an image that he uses to explain his point.

Comment:
Ron is a great guy. He's very funny and knowledgable about the subject, but the classes are soo dry. They are nothing more than powerpoint pictures that he explains. There are no notes on the slides. His study guides are extensive and very good, but it is a lot of information. Labs are easy and really boost your grade.

If he knows your name, you are bound to get a good grade!! He rewards those who try hard. Lectures a bit disorganized but review session before every test. He curves depending on how class as a whole does. Easy labs are 35% grade booster. Take geol110 for a lab science!

Comment:
Go to class for the notes, he uses slides not powerpoints so you'll miss a lot if you don't go. He is really nice and helpful the class is just boring if you're not interested in science. 3 tests and short writing assignments every so often. Textbook is worth buying to use as a reference but not really necessary if you go to class and take notes

Lectures can be a bit overwhelming, but, there is a lot of material to know. 3 exams, all essay. Gives a review guide for every exam, which is quite useful.

This guy is amazing!!!! All he wants is for his students to succeed. Before every exam he hosts an exam review, which is very helpful. He always asks if we have questions. He is a very funny guy. I actually found the material interesting (some of the times) but he is definitely the perfect professor to teach this class.

What a great man. Truly cares about his students and what he's teaching. Always available to help you and wants to see you succeed. I've run into him several times at the gym and he's extremely friendly. Material is boring, but he is funny nevertheless. Go to him for help with problems! I'd reccommend him.

He is such a nice teacher. U have to know alot of stuff for the exams, but he does a review session. Dont need to read the book- everything u need to know he tells in his lectures. he is always willing to help. has a LARGE curve in grades. final exam was exact questions off of old exams. Boring information to learn but he try to make it interesting

This class was not easy, but he is very fair. The book is mandatory now- figures from the book are on the exams. Come to class, he'll boost your grade at the end if he knows your face! The lectures could get a little dry, but all the material was interesting on some level. Overall, I really enjoyed his class, and got an A.

Interesting class, n Prof Martin rules! He's so nice, n every time he'd say "critters" I'd wanna laugh. He's very helpful outside of class, his reviews sessions will help u score an A, n the exams are extremely fair -- right from ur notes. Make sure to attend class, n don't buy the books!!

So boring, but so nice. He really cares about his students and will help you any way he can. Don't bother with the readings. If you actually go and take notes, you'll do well.

Even if you are not a geology major you should take one of his classes. He is a great professor and a very nice and funny man. He goes out of his way to help and here's the best part--he KNOWS what he is talking about.
