He is pretty lazy because he never teaches the class. Each chapter is taught by a different student. When it comes time for exams, he's very much about "what do you think you should know?" as opposed to letting us know what's important. It's an easy class but also very annoying. I wouldn't take him again.

Freeman is a good teacher. He is definitely not the best at provoking group discussion, but he tries. He tells interesting stories to relate theories to life (if you can bare to listen - he is boring) and he gears the class towards our interests. He is a really nice guy and very understanding. Papers are tedious but workload is easy & class is easy

His teaching style definitely takes some getting used to, he wants it to be more of a dialogue with each other than him teaching and he doesn't know what to do if no one participates. Tried to get everyone to think and apply concepts to everyday life but it didn't work. Class was easy, but his teaching style is haphazard and unfocused.

He's is fantastic. He was incredibly knowledgeable. There's a midterm, final, and a paper which is broken up over the semester. He's a pretty fair grader and really gears and class to what we're all interested in. Definitely take him if you can. He's so nice

Professor Freeman definitely has knowledge about media industries, but it's difficult to sit through a class when the same 6 people speak up and everyone else is sleeping! Gives a tracking paper, midterm, final, and random quizzes. Overall, not the greatest professor and lacks one-on-one techniques with students in class, but he's tolerable.

I had Dr. Freeman for Intro to Comm & Media Arts. He is simply the BOMB!! And a total sweetheart too and very fair and makes learning fun. His class was one of the few class that I have looked forward to attending. However, please note, his research papers are challenging, but he does answer your questions to help you out as best as he can.

Requires about 80 pages of textbook reading a week, random quizzes with detailed questions, midterm, final, and tracking paper. Class is incredibly boring with no real direction. He never reviews the assigned reading, so you're lost as to what's important. Plus, he wasn't even a Communications major himself. Survivable but not recommended.

Media Industries was one of the only classes I enjoyed going to last semester- it was interesting and not difficult- as long as you keep up with the tracking paper... Freeman presents an interesting angle, and most importantly is extremely accommodating to students

Professor Freeman is nice and cares a lot about his students. If you try, you will do well, and the pop quizzes aren't bad at all. The class content seems tedious at times, but it's interesting. Take him!

Gives the impression that he's a substitute teacher, and we're waiting for the main event to return and take over. Wants to talk about fluff and nonsense, and springs everyone along. Take him if you're not interested in learning, but merely want some easy credits. Attend classes, though, for the pop quizzes. Flatter him, and you're IN.

Easliy the worst professor I've ever had. Approaches topics with questions like "So, who here watches television?" and follows that thread for at least half an hour. Puts seemingly no effort into preparing for class and makes you pointlessly discuss in small groups while he (most of the time unsuccessfully) roams the internet for helpful examples.

Had him for children & the media- really easy class- we just talked about our childhoods most of the time and the actual information we learned was pretty interesting. great class- take it.
