Nothing too special about him. Interesting class. Tests were all multiple choice, but you had to study for them.SOCL1101 2019-11-07 15:50:13 +0000 UTC
Professor Chambers is a really good professor. His grading system and syllabus is set for you to do well. We have weekly homework that were very easy. The exams were easy because he prepared us for them. Attendance is part of the grade. I wasn't paying attention at the beginning but I got better and still did good in the class.SOCIO1101 2018-04-27 13:05:29 +0000 UTC
Best prof I've ever had at NortheasternSOCL1270 2018-04-27 13:01:07 +0000 UTC
He is great professor who is very passionate about his course. The only downside is that he might take a while to give back feedback. Overall, I loved taking this class with him and I would definitely take a course with him again.SOC4520 2016-04-19 12:10:43 +0000 UTC
Good Professor but relied entirely on the online content from the textbook company. Very knowledgeable, answers questions well. You can tell his presentations are provided from the textbook company, and all his tests and quizzes are scan sheets generated by the online content. Online content was incomprehensible. Not recommended for intro. socSOC101 2013-01-13 10:57:35 +0000 UTC
he is a a bad teacher and very boring and unclearSOCL1102 2011-04-26 05:12:50 +0000 UTC
Incredibly easy. I skipped a few more classes than were allowed, and I still easily got an A. The tests, although based off the book, are largely just common sense. At first I read the book every time it was assigned, but eventually I stopped and still got a 95%-100% on each test, which all took max 25 minutes. Don't expect a lecture to end early.SOCL1101 2018-09-04 23:27:36 +0000 UTC
He is a really engaging professor with a great deal of knowledge about the subject. He really emphasizes participatione even though the class is over 70 students.SOCIO1101 2012-11-13 11:56:33 +0000 UTC
Gives occassional quizzes in class which should go very well if you've done the reading. Material can be boring at times but Chris presents it very well in class. Papers are fairly easy, just put some thought into them and you'll get at least a B on those. An author of a reading came into class once, definite plus!SOCL1270 2010-12-05 18:18:50 +0000 UTC
Professor Chambers is inspiring, incredibly passionate, and cannot hide his love for the intellectual exchange of ideas in class discussions-- which makes class hard to zone out on Facebook. If you miss a reading, you can still get something out of the class discussions and contribute because he asks many broad discussion questions.SOC4520 2014-03-11 10:31:36 +0000 UTC
Awesome dude. Do your homeworks, study before tests, you're set. Not a hard class, not a hard teacherSOCL1101 2018-04-13 11:02:06 +0000 UTC
Prof Chris Chambers is a really interesting and inspiring man. He is extremely passionate and loves what he's teaching. He kind of sucks at giving back feedback, and his tests are significantly from the textbook, so you need to study. 4 tests. Homework each week, You need to go to class to get your attendance code, so no skipping. Overall great!!SOCL1101 2017-04-24 19:59:19 +0000 UTC
The 4 tests are based off of the textbook and lectures, you could pass if you read the textbook carefully and didn't attend lectures. Chambers is funny, nice, knowledgable, and very helpful so I would recommend going to class.SOCL1101 2013-08-23 12:19:00 +0000 UTC
main grades are 4 tests, i made the mistake of missing one of the tests and failing, but they were really easy if you payed attention to the book and his lectures, i wish i passed, he was very cheerful, definitely participate in class!SOCL1101 2013-04-07 21:51:53 +0000 UTC
