Comment:

The homework is super easy as the answers are right there in the book. The exams were hard if you don't study. However, Dr. Meyer provides study guides, though they aren't specific but instead has more general terms. I didn't do exceptionally good on the exams but did all the homework and the discussion boards and got a great grade.

Professor Meyer was a good professor. My class was online so there was not too much interaction with him. The class was easy and you got full points as long as you turn something in. There are "exams" every week, however they are just long quizzes. They are mc/tf and are difficult but if you study you can do well. Overall, not a bad class.

Talks forever about nothing important and then when he gives you an exam there are many questions on there that he did not touch on in class nor are they in the book. He was not a good professor at all. I would not recommend.

Dr. Meyer was an average online professor, but let me warn you when I say that he changed his cirriculum from the past. The exams are no longer on quizlets, they are all different than any quizlet found now. You have to buy the online book to pass his exams, the first one I did not read i got a 52. Read the entire book and youll get an A

He was a good professor and will meet with you in his office for questions. However the class was pretty hard. The first 2 map exams were easy, but the 5 others were pretty hard and required lots of studying. The exams must be proctored or use video camera. There are 12 writing assignments and 2 discussion boards that he grades easily.

He's a good teacher and I liked watching his video lectures. You learn more about the culture than I thought you would. This is an easy UP/300 level class. Two small papers, a couple of proctored exams and that's it. Study for the map exams (multiple choice) and you'll get A's. Also, exam 3/4 were way harder than 5 so study more for those.

There are 2 map exams that are easy if you just practice the night before but then the two exams that follow those are really hard because in lectures he talks a ton and its hard to pay attention because you have no clue what is important. Basically you should just take this class online and it will be an easy 4.0.

If you take it online LOOK FOR QUIZLETS FOR EXAMS 3-5! I did not realize this until after I messed up on exam 3 and couldn't get my grade back up to a 94%, which is the lowest you can get for an A, and I ended up with a 93.4%, which is an A-.

Horrible prof. I hated it. Only contact were reminders of week #. Lectures are barely helpful & all reading on your own. Decent study guides. Map exams easy, just practice. Exam 3/4 were hard, exam 5 easy. Quizlets already made - have answers on them. Exams are proctored. Final is essay Q's, do a couple a week so you'll be done early!!! No EC :(((

Great summer class. No big projects. Check out Quizlet before exams, & take notes on the lectures. He is a fast on responding to ?s & grades. The study guides for each module are SUPER important. Fill them out completely & you'll be fine. The practice exams are pretty worthless, but give you an idea about the format of the exams. Do online.

Online it is a very easy class. The book is require for the "essay" its in quotes because its called an essay project but really you are just answering questions in bullet point format. Make sure you use quizlet to your advantage, lot of people have already made note cards for his exams. Exams are proctored which is annoying. But easy class

I took this class online and probably could've done better if I was better at self-motivating. If you don't have a problem doing that, I definitely recommend this class. The entire class consists of a few really easy discussion boards, 5 exams, and a paper. Most of the exams can be found online, too.

By far, my favorite class and professor at CMU. I'm a soc major but his GEO373 class was a great change. He's Hilarious and posts all his power points online. There is two extra credit opportunities and only two quizzes which are easy map ones. Let's you use notes on tests.

Funny guy, but he presents a lot of material in class and it can be hard to distinguish what will be on the test. His powerpoints are like 100 slides and thats basically what you need to study for the exams which are usually 80 T/F MC questions. I heard this class with him is easier online. He offers 2 extra credit quizzes and 2 easy map quizzes.

David is a easy-going prof and tells jokes that he thinks are funny but no one else does. I find it hard to learn because he presents a lot of information in lectures and it is hard to distinguish what is really important. There are 2 map exams that are fairly easy, then 2-3 regular exams which tend to be harder. I wish the class had more structure

The online class is self guided when it comes to deadlines. Have to have the test Proctored in person which was a pain. The quizzes cover a lot of information but there is some good exam questions and quizzes to study with on quiz-let for that. You can retest for exams but it is all essay so do good on the first take.

TAKE THIS CLASS ONLINE, all it is is 2 map exams and 3 exams from chapters in the textbook. He also assigns a paper based of a short book based off Latin America stories. You can find all the exams on quizlet or online if you look hard enough. the exams are super hard if you don't study so STUDY.

He likes to talk a whole lot. He crack jokes, but no one seems to laugh. His tests are easy if you know how to study for them. He gives random extra credit quizzes.
