Reviews of professor Dan Bloomingdale

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Professor Bloomingdale is very boring when lecturing, which he does for more than half of his classes. He talks in one tone the entire class which makes you want to sleep. Easy assignments, gives examples to know what he wants. Extra credit is optional when he misses class.

This man has a very vanilla personality and his lectures can be dreadfully boring, but he is a good prof. His two exams were relatively easy and he grades speeches very fairly. If there is one word to describe both him and his class it would be- average.

Encouraged class participation, but then dismissed any comments/ feedback the students gave. Graded speeches fairly. Lectured every class and they were very bland. Gave really helpful midterm and final study guides.

Just okay. Lectures can be pretty boring and he doesn't use D2L so if you miss you have to get notes from someone in class. He gives study guides for the exams. Understanding guy, he grades speeches pretty easily. It says on his syllabus if you miss more than 4 classes you'll fail the class but he doesn't follow through with it.

Easy class. The first half he just lectures the whole period, and then gives a midterm on everything he lectured about. He gives a clear study guide on what to expect for the final and midterm. You don't need the textbook because his lectures are straight from the book. Speeches are really easy just be confident and talk loud and you'll get an A.

Compared to my other friends who took Oral Comm, Bloomingdale's class was very test and lecture heavy. The first half of the course is all tests and lectures, and then the last half is all speeches. He also gives a written final despite learning almost no new material in the last half. He tried to make the class engaging, but it was still boring.
