| Additional Comments |
I took this class during Winter Term (January 2006) and it was a piece of cake. There were about six easy assignments that had to be completed from various web sources and by using the book. Two of those assignments were also two page papers about why you were taking the course and what your final project was going to be so it wasn't very difficult to get all of those points.
The class had three tests worth about one hundred points each and they were open book. Most of the test questions were common sense and weren't tricky at all. There was also no excuse not to get all of the points on these exams since you could take them multiple times and if you missed some the first time you could click on the Blackboard site to see what questions you missed and then when you took the exam again it had the SAME questions. Therefore, VERY easy to get test points.
The only major assignment for the class is a final project where you describe a local environmental problem in your hometown area. This project has to be a PowerPoint presentation unless you want to do a DVD or video project and it is worth 30% of your grade. All you have to do, though, is some brief research on the topic, arrange a coherent presentation, get lots of nice pictures off of the web, and make sure to cite your information and you should get all of the points.
Dr. Taylor was also very helpful and got back to me quickly via e-mail in case I had any questions. I'd definitely recommend this class to anyone taking General Ed or taking this course during Winter Term next year. A+ all the way.
