class40 . Moody T W 1 Year, 5 Months Ago

He is a great professor, he genuinely cares about his students and sets them up to succeed. Midterm and Final are both online and he gives plenty of time to do them. Easy GE, grading depends on TA, but overall a great class.

Really chill and kind professor, you can tell he really cares about his students and wants them to succeed in his class. Projects and online midterms and finals were super easy and reasonably graded. Definitely take him for a ge!

class40 . Moody T W 1 Year, 6 Months Ago

this is the best class to take for easy GE credits. he has a take-home midterm and final. even though it's not mandatory that you go, his lectures are genuinely really interesting and thought-provoking. there are random responses that you have to do during lecture though, aside from that this class is the easiest A.

Moody was a great professor, and he is very passionate about what he teaches. His class was very enjoyable, and it was an easy class to take for credit. 10/10 would recommend.

CLASS36 . Moody T W 1 Year, 10 Months Ago

Very awesome professor who tried to remember everyone's names. Easy assignments: in-class response, weekly quizzes that are online and have 10 questions, and one final paper. Light grader. Takehome Midterms and finals, both took me 15 minutes. Seems like a lot of reading but it's not. No need for textbooks, he summarizes them well in lectures.
