Took it online. Heavy textbook use since you're learning it on your own, but material easy to understand. 12 quizzes online all straight from the book. Had to buy a course reader and a test based off the reader- easy if you do the readings and study!. Very easy overall. Take it if you have to and are good at working on your own.

Comment:
Despite requiring us to take 12 quizzes the class isn't really the easiest. Some of the questions were pretty tough, but if you email him about choosing answers that are sort of correct but marked wrong he gives you the points. Recommended if you have a heavy load and need this class done.

Very easy and simple class, except for the reader quiz which you should prepare for. I had to email him several times about quiz questions that are flat out wrong so that he could give me points. His quizzes are riddled with spelling errors. It is really a shame that RCC pays this guy a professor's salary. He obviously puts no effort into the class

Prof will flat out ignore any emails you send him. Online course is basic: 12 quizzes no retaking it and chance at extra credit. Avoid if you can. Easy, but annoying.

This was a very simple class. There is a quiz for each chapter (no retaking quizzes). Thats it! No assignments. He even offers extra credit. I enjoyed. Intresting content.

Comment:
extremely funny! he doesn't really care about his students, but his class isn't that hard! be prepared to read a lot, the exams are taken word from word from the book, he gives 6 chances to be absent after that you will lose points, great sense of humor! he is definitely not boring but I didn't learn a lot because I wasn't interested on his lecture

Easy!!I took the web enhanced class and all the quizzes were online. The test questions are word for word from the book. there is no final test. 2 extra credit assignments. So basically I would go to class for no reason, it wasn't helpful you have to read and understand on your own. My suggestion, if your just taking this class as a required course for transfer, take this teacher. If you are really looking to pursue a career in sociology or anything related with it don't take him I won't learn.

Professor Davin is great! I took him online and all that he requires is you take 12 online quizzes. No work, no assignments, EASY! He also offers two extra credit assignments. Easy A and VERY nice man! He could not be any clearer, so read the syllabus and you'll do great!

He explains in detail what he wants on assignments. Make sure you read the text at home he does not go over it in class. OPEN BOOK / NOTES on tests including final. But make sure you read or else you will waste time looking for answers in the book. Fun guy overall.

Everyone's already covered how easy this class was. I actually contacted the professor a couple times and he seems to be a nice and helpful man, though the course is very reliant on the book's info so you probably won't talk to him often. This class was a wonderful experience! Highly recommended.

I took his online class and it was extremely easy. It consists of 12 tests in which the student has the entire semester to complete them. There are no deadlines or due dates, just everything must be done by the end of semester. He gives two chances for extra credit (1) Taking an additional chapter test and (2) writing a small paper. EASY!!

Took his online course, it is so easy. I didnt even read any of the chapters. He posts the chapter outlines on the website and most of the questions on the quiz deal with main terms that are easy to find. He gives you the whole term to finish the class and doesnt care when you start or how often you actually do anything.

Overall easy class, but a LOT of reading is required.Don't fall behind.I noticed others saying that they looked up the answers. Not me!My reccomendation is read the ENTIRE ch,cause u will not be able to look up answers in time. Do as well as you can on the ch tests cause the Extention Reader is Very Difficult to understand.

Perfect online class. Able to do the quizzes whenever you can, I finished the class in about 8 weeks. Quizzes are pretty easy as long as you read the chapter, and there is enough time to look back through your book. Easy A.

I took this class online, easy A. You read 12 chapters and take 12 tests. There is also a test from his extension reader. My only critique is that it is hard to get a hold of him. Other than that, dont wait until the last minute. I was done with the class in 6 weeks out of a 12 week class!

Simple class, 12 chapters, 12 30 question quizzes with an hour to take them. Extension Reader exam (kind of a final) hardest part, 30 short articles, 30 questions. 2 extra credit assignments allowed too. You are given the entire semester to finish everything mentioned. Very cut and dry. Just don't wait till last minute and an A is very obtainable.

Took online class, no class discussions. 12 tests based on the chapters you read. As long as you read, or are good at lookinf for answers through a chapter while you take the test, guaranteed you will pass.
