This dude uses Cogbooks for Critical Thinking and it sucks. Not really his fault, but for an asynchronous class it was far too frustrating.

Comment:

A professor that cares about his students and is passionate about what he teaches. Can be socially awkward and speaks lightly but an overall good guy. I took this as my writing intensive and we didn't have many assignments. He rambles during lectures but it isn't all important. There is a group presentation at the end that isn't too hard.

Lectures are very intense and difficult. The professor is a genius, his IQ is probably in the same park as einstein.

He talks really softly. He means well but the material is difficult and he does a pretty poor job at explaining it

Very difficult class: very good professor. Do not take this class if you aren't willing to study at least 5 hours per week. This class is known to be difficult; and it lives up to its title.

Raymer is a great guy. The lectures are kind of intense and the expected reading is a little insane, but if you come to class and make an effort you should do well. There isn't a lot of assignments throughout the semester, but a significant portion of the grade comes from participation in the discussion section.

Took this course during the summer, Easy A. Since it was a short session every week we had to do modules with videos and readings from two books. Answers are literally there for you. Emails back quickly and not a harsh grader.

Comment:

Raymer is a nice guy and cares about his students. His lectures are boring though and the answers to some of the questions he asks are somewhat subjective. His tests are fairly difficult and the grading criteria of the writing assignments is unclear. He is not bad, but I probably would not take him again.

Professor Raymer's class is the most unpleasant class I've taken at UNCC. He often manages to confuse himself during lectures (truly an astounding feat) and struggles to get back on track. If you have to take this class, you will need to work with other students or find a tutor. I will avoid Professor Raymer in the future.

Dr. Raymer is a very sweet guy. I don't want to say his course is lecture heavy but it is very boring. I don't consider myself bad at math but if you go to class, even if you sleep through it (which I did at times) he walks you through everything. Assignments are weighted nicely. I got an A.

Very nice guy & willing to help if you need it. He cares about his students. Like many have said, he's very soft-spoken so I suggest sitting near the front. Show up to class regularly & show you're interested and he'll be willing to bump up your grade if it's bordering another grade.

He is very hard to understand. Nice man but he is sort of socially awkward and mumbles quite a bit so it is hard to understand his lectures. The coursepack for the class is confusing.

Pretty easy class, but he is a tough grader on the 3 short essays we are assigned. His writing isn't the clearest but write down what you can from the board, listen to his lectures, and you'll do fine on the quizzes (offers curve). Very awkward professor but he's kind and soft spoken.

Great guy. He is very quiet, so I would recommend sitting as close as possible. Assignments are very clear, and most tests are take-home. He curved grades too. Kind of dull material. You will do fine if you put in a little bit of effort, and come to class (kind of) regularly.

First of all, taking this class was the worst decision I have made when it comes to registering for classes. This class was a ton of work. I took it online and this professor was pretty much unreachable. When I had questions about and assignment or had and issue with something he wouldn't respond until I emailed him again about the same thing.

He's a great guy, I personally struggled with the tests & assignments but still pulled out an A from him because I took the time to listen to his lectures, showed some genuine interest and made sure he knew who I was. Go to class as much as you can because he will assign homework/writings in class. You can find the required book as a pdf online

He has been one of my favorite professors at UNCC. He's not the clearest speaker but he will go over something until you truly understand it. His writing is tough to read but I told him I was a visual learner and he actually took the time to draw things for me so I would understand. He's funny and he truly does care about you as a student.
