CollegeWrobel definitely cares about what he teaches. I would have loved the class if I cared more for earth science, but he still made it interesting. Funny and laid back guy
Super nice, easy class.
Just pay half attention and put an effort into your cheat sheet, and it should be an easy A! As a humanities major, this was a lovely GE!
This was a fun GE to take because of how passionate Alex was on the material. For the midterm and final the only studying I did was making the cheat sheets and I was able to do well, but there was some tricky questions. The online weekly quizzes and in-class labs help boost your grade. Just make sure you're actively learning and you should do fine!
good teacher but do not take this as a GE if you want an easy A. The tests were extremely hard even with a cheat sheet. average in this class was a B which should not be normal for a GE
mr alex! what a goat. very humble guy and loves what he does. overall beautiful human. weekly open book quizzes, sections are mandatory but he picks amazing TA's who give out weekly worksheets open book as well, and midterm and final he allowed a cheat sheet. take his class serious and you will pass! love this guy, gonna miss u mr alex
