Additional Comments |
I don't know what everyone's problem is with this class/teacher. This class is soooo easy! There are only two tests, but if you go to class, take notes, and actually study for the tests, they aren't that bad. He knows the tests are hard so he curves the grades. He doesn't take attendance, but he will have at least one "pop quiz" a week. He grades on a pass/fail basis. HE LEAVES THE ANSWERS FROM THE NOTES ON THE BOARD. If you are there and you at least get some answers right, you get full credit. You have to be dumb as a rock to fail a quiz. I think he drops one or two of the quiz grades. You also get to go to the planetarium twice. I think he gives you a grade on if you attend that, too. McGruder knows his stuff, so he may come off a bit pretentious, but that's because he is a professional astronomer, which is pretty cool. if you ask me. I prefer my teachers to be passionate and experience at what they do. If you want your astronomy teacher to hold your hand throughout the class, take another class. If you want to listen to someone who has years of experience and knows his stuff, take McGruder.
