Great teacher. Can't be emphasized enough. I would download my his slides on to my tablet and write Down what is being discussed. When done the PowerPoint, I'd answer the questions in the beginning and that's how I made an A.

Professor Richards is a great professor. He wrote his own textbook. The textbook is very helpful. Take notes if you want an A on the tests. Do the homeworks from the book, it's very easy. I would take him again.

Dr. Richards is great. Just finishing his online class. His Blackboard classroom is very simple, organized, and extremely easy to understand. He has set assignments, due dates, and great PP Presentations with narration (lectures) posted on-line. He knows his stuff (wrote the book we used) and is always helpful. Wonderful experience in every way!

He is actually a great teacher and knows his stuff. He is pretty funny and interesting (but may get boring at some times)! the overall class consists of going to class (HE TAKES ROLL) (15% of grade), take notes (but everything on the test is in the book) he gives reviews, read the book chapters, and you will pass the tests! easy class!

Comment:
To get an easy A in this class, go to every class and take notes. Do not worry too much about understanding what you wrote until you get the exam-study guide then use notes plus book to fill-in. Exam matches study guide well. Richards is ultra professional and extremely nice. He seriously wants everyone to get an A. With a little effort, you will.

I took his class at 830 am and it was hard bc I have no interest in econ. I didnt think he was monotone. I took lots of notes even tho they got a little confusing at times. I really had to study and do the review. The project really saved me. I would take him again

Comment:
Professor Richards is a very nice gentleman who knows his topic well. Economics is a nuanced subject that can be difficult to explain in an intro class. Read the book, take notes, and do the study guide, and you can earn an A. Ask if you don't understand something; he's happy to help.

Comment:
Pretty easy teacher. You have to do 10 Homework assignments out of the book and its super easy, basically matching. You dont really have to take notes because all you need for the study guide and test is the Homworks that he corrects and gives back to you. EASY A but bring coffee because he is boring and monotone. But a Great Guy

Comment:
He is a decent professor. But his class is very boring in all honesty. And his tests can be rather difficult as well. He gives you a study guide the class meeting before the test. But oddly enough, it doesnt completely help all that much. I had to rely on a project (which was very easy) and a surprisingly easy final exam to get an A in his class.

Good Teacher. He co-wrote the book so the text mirrors exactly what he says so you dont have to worry about confusion. Reviews are extremely helpful.

He is a good prof, he teaches what we need to know period. No quizes nor homeworks. His review is pretty much the test and he is very helpful if you have any question. He is easy going and likes to talk

not a difficult class. anyone who says it was didn't do the reviews. the review is the test. he gives everyone a review and if you took the time to fill it out than you'd easily pass the test. class can be boring but he does the best he can with it. tells good story which help to make it more interesting. would recommend him

Mr. Richard is a great professor. He has a monotone voice, but he is funny in his on way which is good or else I'll fall sleep. He makes sure that you understand his teaching. Tests are not hard, you just need to study.

He's a good teacehr but if you try to take him in the morning be carefull, he has a monotone voice which can make you fall asleep. Overall he's a good teacher he really does the best he can to help his students understand. His tests are ok and the project is totally easy as long as you pay attention in class

Go to class, listen here and there, put in your two cents and ask questions. He is mono tone and boring, but if you do the review guides you will get an A. He is nice, but you won't learn a lot in this class, just an easy grade.
