Reviews of professor Blake Alspach

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Mr. Alspach made this class very manageable and seems really passionate about Earth science. He sends emails every week explaining current weather phenomenon and other Earth science-related events. There's a decent amount of reading/note-taking but nothing crazy, and honestly I liked some parts of the textbook. I enjoyed this class a lot

This class was difficult for me, but Professor Alspach was extremely helpful and is always there if you need it. Definitely recommend.

Prof Alspach is very passionate, communicates well, and give goods feedback.  He provides a short 10 min video where he recaps the module.  Take notes from that video as it will help you with the HW & exams.  There are 3 exams in total that are timed (45 mins) & on a locked browser.  Be prepared with your notes or you will NOT finish in time.

He was a fantastic professor and the assignments and class were very very easy. One weekly discussion and one weekly quiz, plus 3 exams total. Exams are on lockdown browser but if you complete the quiz and discussion they are very easy!! One of the best and most interesting online classes I have ever taken!

I'm not a big fan of Earth Science but taking this course with professor Alspach changed my mind. You can tell he loves his job by the engaging on the class. 100% recommended. If you complete all the assessments you have an A assured

Read read read. Do not skip on the mandatory readings if you want to do well in this class. The assignments are clear and easy to understand. His test will ask you practical questions to see if you understand the material. Pretty straight forward and very educational. Highly recommend.

Great class and great professor! Always gives great feedback on discussions and explains why certain answers are right and wrong. Very quick about responding to emails (same/next day). Powerpoint lectures are easy to follow and understand. Grades are very fair and reflect the work put into the class. Definitely recommend this professor!
