I took Cultural andthropology with Mr. Schiffman and it is a walk in the park. The easiest class by far, all you need to do is watch the videos and take the quizzes and you have two chances to take the quizzes. There is only a midterm and a final and no papers to write. Extra credit is available is you show up to Test reviews. Easy A!!

Mr. Schiffman is easy, I took class online and his work load is not that much. Just read and the quizzes will be easy he usually gives two chances, and you only have to write two papers. Fairly easy and an easy A. I would recommend him.

Comment:
He is a pretty easy teacher. All you have to do if you take his geology course online is read a chapter a week and take the quiz online by the end of the week. He is very nice because he offers lots of extra credit, and he responds to emails really quick.

Lots of Circular thinking. Forum on How and if Noah's Ark could have happened (both Fundamental and not) and why he doesnt think so. Next there are 4 exams somewhat hard(study) 11 quizes pretty easy and some extra credit here and there. ALSO! two written assignments...pretty easy.

I took this class online. I went into it dreading it because science is my worst subject. I've never got a grade above "C". But let me tell you, this was the EASIEST class I've ever taken. Shiffman gives TONS of extra credit. My grade got up to like 110%.He responds very quickly to emails. I HIGHLY recommend him, especially those who hate science

Awesome professor! I took him for both Geo and Anthro ITV's..I went to the library one day a month to watch the videos and fill in the multiple choice quizzes that are based on watching the videos. It only takes 4 hours to get a months work of quizzes done. go to the review sessions they're worth five points. study the review terms b4 exams.cake!

He is interesting and knows his subject. I wish I had taken his lecture course instead of ITV, so I could have heard his lectures. Do the video quizzes and read the text each week, then study the terms on his website before the tests, and you'll get a good grade. He tells you exactly what to study. Show up for reviews. They're worth points.

I always studied for the tests and always seemed to fail. He doesn't cover in his lectures what he has on the tests. But I'm not the perfect student either. I was always late to class, but I studied really hard. I got a D

Hard subject, easy ITV class. Get high marks on the videos and you can fail the final and still make a C in the class. Videos are easy, just time consuming.
