Reviews of professor Gavin Bradley

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Honestly a wholesome online class and just learn about dinos (sometimes it gets precise on terms which can be tough) but overall no complaints.

Additionally, Coursera is used so you don't have to find anything and it's all given to you!

Great class as an elective or if you're looking into becoming a paleontologist.

Great prof, interesting lectures and good content, self paced course through online as well as guest lectures. Highly recommend this class as there are many hands on activities which are fun and cool field trips.

Paleo 200 is all online so I didn't see much of Gavin, but when I did talk to him he was nothing but respectful and caring. Overall an excellent prof and a pretty easy and interesting class.

Although this is an online course, Dr.Bradley was very interactive throughout the semester. He gave multiple resources to ensure your success in the class. The course itself was memory heavy, I found that the later half of the course topics took more time to resonate with me so the final was a touch harder than the midterm. Would recommend. :)

202/203/204 are standalone courses & the letter grade for each course shows up separately on transcript. my first B letter grade is now on my transcript from a silly one-credit paleo course, so thats disappointing

not an easy A science elective, need to put in work to summarize and memorize the info. only take if u r interested/willing to memorize

Very kind prof who responded to emails and eClass forum questions within a reasonable time span. The course is entirely on Coursera but he did his absolute best to remind us to book our exams early, provide study tips, and some practice questions. Exams are also quite straightforward.

The sweetest prof I have ever had! He is caring and his emails always put a smile on my face. HOWEVER THIS IS NOT AN EASY CLASS! 45% midterm and final which are brutal! Memorization of small details and a full comprehension is needed to get a decent grade. I studied a lot and did not excel on either. Loved him but do not expect an easy class.

One of the best and most understanding professors I have ever had. Such a sweet guy. I would absolutely take another course with him. Honestly a goated professor.

Try to make an appointment with him after writing your midterm so he can help you figure out where your problem areas are and how you can fix your studying. Other than that the course is basically done alone. Easier than most science courses in terms of amount of content and time commitment.
