Mediocre, Monotone, and slightly dull. Expect to get powerpoints everyday. And heads up... The quizzes due each Sunday are on the chapter you haven't gone over in class yet (which is why if you want to do well, read the the text book chapters outside of class! Weekly online Quizzes (2 attempts), 3 Exams, Final Paper, and Final Exam of 80 questions.

I had Professor Niles as an online class professor. He was not very responsive to emails and there were sometimes glitches in his online platform (Blackboard). Otherwise, it was a pretty boring class. There was a lot of reading assigned, which is why I did not do too well (because I did not read).

One of my favorite classes this semester! Dr. Niles is available whenever you need him and gives great feedback on papers and boards. Note, you are required to write 2 papers for the semester, but they are fairly simple and he is not over critical. Wish I couldve had his class in person.

I took SOC 210 this semester, and it was great! Rubrics and grading criteria were clear. In addition, we had weekly discussion boards, which often were exciting and were an excellent way to interact with our classmates, overall a friendly class and a good professor!

This professor made my Spring semester amazing and great. The work was not difficult and we had enough time to complete each assignment. Overall I enjoyed taking my first Sociology course with this professor, and I definitely will recommend others.

This class was very simple: quiz and discussion board every week, with the occasional exam/paper due. It was an easy A and I had no issues with Professor Niles. The only thing that bugged me a little is that towards the end of the semester he began posting work not on the day specified, so we would have less time to complete assignments.

Really nice and funny teacher. If you pay attention during his powerpoints and take the straightforward quizzes you will definitely pass the tests. His lectures are more conversational and he always includes stories from his own life, which makes the concepts easier to understand. I really enjoyed this class and it was not hard to pass at all.
