A lot of reading but it's interesting. If you do the reading he's an easy A. Three small papers that you can turn it at an time. He gives several ways to earn extra credit. Teacher is funny and fun. I would definitely recommend him. Also, never had to stay the entire class time he always was done earlier

He is very funny, and his class is super easy, never opened the book, did all my essays last minute, and took all tests online with my classmates lol, take his class if you want a chill teacher and an easy A

Very helpfull. Although the course is challenging, but the instructor was amazing.You have to read the textbook in order to be in truck. Quizes for every lecture, papers with opportunities to earn extra points. My suggesns keep up with readings, attend the class and do assignments.Start watching shows earlier in the semester.

Godard is a very nice easy going professor.Students that complain or got a bad grade didn't put any time or effort in the class.You're at a university for crying out loud.3-2pg.papers 2 tests.Extra credit if u turn in your paper early. No citing or specific format.

Take this class. Its a little boring but he knows what he talking about. Takes quizzes with an app, quizzes are 20% of grade. 2 Exams, mostly based on notes/powerpoint. 2 Short essays based on TV show Episodes. Easy class overall. I would take this proffesor again.

Dr. Godard is a dorky, funny guy. His class can drag on sometimes but he will definitely make you laugh with his jokes. The material itself can be a bit challenging and he tends to be fast-paced. Go to class, read, and do the work, you should be fine. He does drop some how,labs, and quizzes. It's only as hard as an upper division class should be.

He is vey funny, but his course is really hard so much to do so many assignments and all of them are really hard.Try to find another instructor for this course. Eventhough he drops 3 quizes, labs, and homeworks still really hard. you woould want to be in the class every time because during the lectures he gives quizes and you need clickers for it.

easy course to pass w/ minimal effort, a little more effort is an A. no textbook, no tests. grades a little differently on a certain curve, can be a bad thing but mostly good. funny guy, really chill. lots of ways to contact him, responds quickly. willing to work w/ you, just talk to him. don't slack just do the work n you'll def pass!

ellis is a great teacher! lectures are lengthy and can be hard to understand. he offers extra credit opportunities and makes himself available to assist students through many different outlets. there is a lot of work assigned in class but he drops the 3 lowest quizzes, labs and homeworks. take his class, it's hard to fail!

Funny. Very cool but he makes things more confusing. Probably better to take from someone who knows how to explain.

Great professor! He is available literally 24/7 if you have any questions. He is very thorough in giving directions and explaining things. And just wants to help you pass the class. There's a lot of work, but its pretty straight forward. I recommend this teacher!

Bad communicator. He speeds through lectures as if it were obvious and easy. It's not. And his default response to many questions is "I don't understand why this is confusing..." which is not productive. Finally, why do professors who are bad communicators always use multiple choice exams? His exams are like going down the rabbit hole.

This professor is great and very knowledgable. He is a bit fast but you can stop him at any time to ask questions. Just stay on top of the material and you should be fine.

Took this class online over summer. Had to make up 4 Question Sets (3 questions each) and then take a Quiz online. Not hard. Then an 8-15 page paper due at the end, along with a Final. Class was time consuming but very interesting. Professor was very nice and quick with email responses.

Greetings all, prof. Godard is a cool dude. Unfortunately he does not give you what you pay for at CSUN. Sure the class is easy; you can get a B or A with little effort. But what do you learn? For me it was very little(if anything); I have taken 100 and 200 level classes and been prouder...I hope YOU make a smart decision.

Great exposure to lots of tools and methods, good experience, but LOTS of work. Prof IS available, and DOES make many resources avail, but you have to take initiative; he won't spoon-feed it to ya.
