The lectures were pretty boring and there's a lot of vocabulary to learn that can get confusing. The midterm and final were both take home tests, but definitely study before the exams so you at least know where to find the answers in your notes, since the questions are pretty specific. It's clear he's passionate about the material.

professor Moore is amazing. he is such a sweet professor and you can tell he loves teaching his class (even if the audience doesn't care much). he's really goofy and sweet, and I would 100000% take a class with him again. he's also a really easy person to talk to and the TA I had was also so sweet.

First couple weeks are a lot of information that's not exactly dinosaurs, but he makes the information interesting. Easy grader, and fun class! Would recommend for anyone needing the GE.

This class is very easy to pass but expect to put in a good/decent amount of effort to get an A. Moore is very enthusiastic and knowledgeable, the class is well structured and I would take it again.

So kind and incredibly knowledgable in the subject. Gave great answers to any questions asked (and lots of people asked questions)

Prof Moore is an amazing person and will make you laugh. You can tell he loves teaching about this topic and genuinely cares about students. Labs and the short quizzes after lecture were really helpful. He doesn't take attendance so it can become easy to skip but skipping won't really help you out for the midterm and final. Either way, loved it

Attendance optional, test questions found in weekly lecture quizzes (on Canvas, can take unlimited times until you get 100%) and mainly in lecture slides. Always attend lab as the online labs are usually more difficult and you can't ask as many questions. Lectures can be long but he always provides slides + detailed notes of lecture.

Prof was clear on expectations, flexible with accommodations too. Lectures can be long, but he's so passionate it goes by well. Class was article-reading heavy, as thats to be expected of stem courses. Was also very accessible to someone who wasnt too familiar with chemistry. Overall, would take again -he's so nice and knowledgeable, patient, etc.

Great lecturer and is so sweet!

I've never had a professor that was as kind and helpful as Moore. He's super clear and the lectures are actually interesting. I've never written review on here but he is my favorite prof so far. He's also super interactive and has us do worksheets which I haven't done since high school and really enjoyed! Such a fun class.

If you are a humanities major looking for an easy Area C GE, look no further. A bit dry but the professor is clearly enthusiastic about the class and its topics. Graded based on labs, short lecture quizzes (2-3 questions each) and multiple choice at-home midterm and final. If you are good at multiple choice you should have no issue with this class.

Props to Moore for making lecture very engaging and having enthusiasm to teach every day. Easy GE class to take. His exams, quizzes and labs were easy to understand as long as you understand how to read cladograms.
