He was a great teacher. Worksheets and textbooks are not what defines a great teacher. Either is the workload. At the end of the day; what did you learn? I learned a ton. Thank you Prof. Travis.

He's a funny guy. Uses visualaides a lot, tells you when quizzes will be. Makes jokes, reminds you when things are due.. and he tries to keep it as fun as possible, but its history... Exams are easy. Listen to what he says, and take notes, then you wont have to look things up for the exam. Easy laid back guy! Take him!!!!

Dont listen to the last comment, you'll be happy you took him. Very easy grader, long as you go to class and do the very light reading assgments, you can sit back and watch videos in the classroom, and collect your A. Overall I'd take him for every class if i could, funny guy, laid back, nice and has no problem giving you a good grade.

Comment:
Without a doubt worst prof ever. Colleges think he is a joke. Uses ****ing YouTube, & movies to teach. Seriously do not take this guy. He gives GVSU a bad name. I would expect better at a CC. I am getting pissed just writing this. What a ****ing moron. He loves Gangs of New York, thinks it is historically pertinent. I paid to be taught by Scorsese?

He was boring and very unclear of what he expected from the students. He was very unhelpful when asked questions.

Comment:
Honestly this was an easy class to get by in without doing much although my grade only came out with about a C. Only work done in class is a 300 word journal summary of the week's lecture and a midterm and final done online but he gives you the questions done ahead of time. He is kind of a tough grader and this class is so boring!!!

Very nice professor. He made History a little bit more interesting by telling facts that aren't normally brought up and everything is online!

Travis was a great prof if you don't like history. EVERYTHING is online, so its not critical to go to class, but he is very helpful in explaining things if you do. No assignments, just essays for the mid-term and final. Plus, he's a really nice guy... I would recommend him.

Easy class if you at least try to attend. No quizzes or homework or reading. Graded on Midterm and Final, both of which are essay, but he gives you the questions on the first day. Also must complete a short journal for each day. Not too bad. He's pretty funny sometimes too. Take him=U do good.

Good prof, nice and funny, lots of videos and movies, he has online reading on the syllabus, but I only read the textbook and did fine. Write a paper and two take home exam things. Ok class, prof is easy if you do what he asks.

He is a fun professor! he is very laid back and flexible. lectures can get boring b/c he talks mostly all hour, but not all are like that. he uses movies and music a lot. his exams are all essay, which are on BB and he gives you the exact questions before hand. Excelent! I would suggest him!!

Nice Professor. He makes history interesting. Great use of media. Once questions are available on BB for the midterm and final,it is helpful to prepare ahead of time. He starts posting the questions 2 or 3 weeks before the exam. You can then paste your answers at exam time.

Comment:
for the online bb exams, he gives 6 to 9 Q's. He chooses two questions and you answer one of those, then you answer another question of your own choosing. Hint: have one question completely done ahead of time, then open the exam and see the two Q's ..50 minutes to write 300-500 words. Saves time
