Reviews of professor Joesph Trafton

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Joe is a nice guy, but should consider taking a course on teaching. Spends the entire 50 min period off topic and puts on YouTube videos instead of explaining things. You can tell hes knowledgable but cant seem to make his point. Very sleepy, always exhausted and clearly has somewhere better to be.

This was POLS110 not 100. This professor assigns WAY too much homework. I know it was only an 8 week summer class, but I was spending 25 hours/week on JUST THIS CLASS. The amount of material he assigns is so unrealistic and he acted like the students were only taking his class, when I had two other classes. Do NOT take this online class!!!!!

He seems like a smart guy but he has difficulty explaining the concepts. Which is the whole point of being a teacher. He drinks way too much coffee which I think is part of the problem. Hes a nice guy but not a great teacher.

Professor Trafton is knowledgeable, but cant ever seem to get his point across. He often goes on about a topic during lecture. He loses his train of thought easily and often talks about stuff other than the current chapter. He was a nice guy but not the best teacher.
