Reviews of professor Zachary Goldberg

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
He makes this class unnecessarily hard??? I'm taking it as a SUMMER class. There's a million things to read every week. This class lasts the whole summer. The first week there was 7 ASSIGNMENTS. And he expects everything to be perfect. Even on things where you're supposed to have an opinion, he expects your answer to be "right".

This class is interesting to take if you don't want a normal science GenEd but I would proceed with caution. It is ALOT and I mean ALOT of reading. Like the reading takes so much time.  Also before you take this class make sure to brush up on APA citations because he is also very strict about those. You lose points for incorrect citations.

One of the worst professors at Penn state. Genuinely felt like hell to work with him. Doesn't respond to emails, poorly explains content, and clearly doesn't know what he is talking about. He is a pathetic excuse for a professor. Awful class and awful person. There is a reason he is a 1.4/5 on here. Such a waste of time. Anyone would be better.

Class is a joke. The materials are not well organized, and the professor has no clue because he didn't create the course contents. You are supposed to do"weekly worksheets." before weekly assessments and quizzes. But you won't ever know the correct answer to the worksheets, and the assessment is copy pasted from the worksheets. DO NOT TAKE

Zachary Goldberg is simply the TA and is the worst teacher I have ever had. He gives you soooo much online homework each week and treats the class like it's for grad students even though it's a GenEd. The amount of homework each week is insane and the Capstone Project is awful. He also is an incredibly harsh grader. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS.

I took GEOG3n thinking it would be an interesting GenED and it turned out to be my biggest mistake of college. There are weekly lectures and MOUNTAINS of work that is poorly presented and difficult to keep track of. Not to mention, the work is extremely challenging and does not relate to tests or quizzes.

I would advise against taking this. Course is sloppy and rushed, seems like authors created it in a weekend about a decade ago and forgot about it. Authors obsessed with "worksheets". Instructor is OK, he seems to be available on email or zoom but I have not tried it. Not hard, but time consuming and dreadful to work on course assignments

This course is not worth anything. The course content is typo-riddled essays with links to free online resources. Not a welcoming learning environment; poor credit:time ratio and lack of respect for students. The instructor is simply the grader but this course should be discontinued. It is a sad excuse of online learning; wouldn't recommend.
