He is a big southern sweetheart. The lectures are a little dull so it helps if youre interested. The essay wasnt difficult, and neither were the midterm and final. He gave us the free responses before the final and surprised us by letting us choose which ones we wanted to do. Very nice of him i thought.
Very good teacher, lectures are interesting. Don't really need to do all the reading. Tests aren't hard but they aren't a very good test of the material you are supposed to learn. Overall good teacher, I enjoyed the class.
I thought the class would be more interesting than it was. ATTEND SECTION. going to section will make the midterm a joke&the final much easier. stay on top of the psychologists reading as they'll all start blurring together. Paper is really easy but time consuming. lecture can get boring. skip the "TA lectures" as they wont be on the midterm/final
I want to stress you dont need to read any of the novels only read the Theories book. Midterm is easy b/c they basically give you the test before. Paper is easy. IDK how the final is im taking it in 1 hour :O
This was one of my first college classes. In retrospect, I did all the reading out of fear more then necessity. Roof is entertaining, and he loves the subject. There was a lot of reading, but only basic comprehension was necessary. The class is simple and requires only attentiveness and common sense. Your TA will be your primary resource.
Takes role randomly so you have to go every time, but lectures are usually interesting discussion or entertaining movies... Makes the tests hard to study for though since the content is not set in stone. Tons of reading that he randomly chooses questions from, but the books are interesting!
Didn't feel the need to attend lecture, just read the book and know the differences between the theorists. Not as interesting of a class as I thought.
This class is so useless and boring.
His lectures are unorganized and sometimes kind of ridiculous. There was a midterm and final and three assignments, but they aren't bad. There were 5 books but I didn't read all of them and got an A-. MT was 10mc 3 short answer. Final was 3 essays and he gave us the topics beforehand.
:)
american religion. very enthusiastic. he is adorable, funny (in his old school way) nd just a fun class to attend- very interesting and addictive readings- paper assignments were actually enjoyable due to the interesting content
A little diappointed in the class. Roof didn't encourage much class discussion or independent thought and was frequently unwilling to answer student questions. Extremely disappointed that rather than lecturing, Roof frequently played films. Easy class though.
