Reviews of professor Douglas Harvey

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Take Harvey if you want an easy A, but do not care if you get much out of your classes. Im not even convinced he fully reads everything turned in. He gives little to no feedback, and almost always 100%.

Easy class but be ready to read. Over 6 mandatory books to read, a test and discussion on each. 
Work at your own pace. Make sure you are completing the discussions.

Dr Harvey is kind and helpful. Ive taken three classes with him and theyve all been challenging and interesting and I learned a lot. As the class is 100% virtual, there have been minor issues that have been quickly resolved. Make sure to complete all assignments as he docks points from overall scores when you dont.

Seminar easier than expected.

The premise of this class was to read five lengthy books, each with a quiz and discussion board, and have four 100-question tests over textbook material in EIGHT weeks.  I have difficulty reading comprehension, so this class was not fun.  The quizzes and exams aren't timed, and you can return to them any time of the semester, so there's that.

Dr Harvey taught the best grad level online class I've taken so far at FHSU. There is a lot of reading, but that's par for the course with online history classes. As a middle school U.S. History teacher, I really enjoyed going into great depth with the Constitutional Era.

Self paced class, no papers & untimed quizzes u can return to. You must actually read books to pass the quizzes and complete the discussions on them. There are 5 books and one textbook. Quizzes on books consist of 10 T/F ?s and r pretty tricky. 4 quizzes on textbook that are 100 multiple choice ?s and aren't too difficult.

I've taken two classes with Dr. Harvey; both have been excellent experiences. There is a lot of flexibility in his online courses, which is hard to find these days. He gives valuable feedback and cares more about you genuinely understanding the material rather than writing a ton.

Excellent professor!!

No feedback is given on graded assignments. Lots of reading, with multiple books. Would have been nice to hear a few lectures, rather than reading for every assignment. Is flexible with assignment due dates.

One "textbook", four assigned books to read and review, four student chosen books to read and review. Fair grader, leaves feedback as to why you did not earn full points so you can correct those issues next time. A total of 10 discussion boards, graded as quizzes/tests. Recorded lectures. Overall, highly recommend. You'll work hard, but gain tons.
