Geosci335 is a great online course to take. The lectures are interesting, and Shaun is a great prof & funny. The class itself is not too hard if you already have some geoscience or atmospheric/oceanic science background- if you don't, the textbook is very useful in explaining everything he will cover in exams, which aren't too bad. I def recommend

Prof Marcott is terrific! Extremely caring, kind, knowledgable of the subject, and more than willing to make accommodations in this difficult time. You can tell that Marcott genuinely wants all his students to succeed-- he has us do what is necessary to learn but is extremely respectful of our time. Would absolutely take again!

Although this class wasn't the most interesting, Shaun is a cool guy who you can tell really cares about what he's teaching. He took the time to understand how to best teach our class and made sometimes boring material worth listening to. He should be the only one teaching this class as his tandem professor Singer was the most boring guy ever.

Great class for non-science people! Shaun keeps you engaged and interested in the topic. No midterm or final, which is great. You have 6 quizzes and a few exercises and getting an A isnt too hard with a little work. Shaun is an extremely kind person and explains well why learning about natural disasters is an important topic.

Great class to fulfill a science credit if you are not necessarily a science major or well-versed in the subject. The professor knows how to keep a large lecture group engaged and interested and the slides are straightforward and easy to understand.

This natural hazards course was co-taught with another professor. Although Shaun was the main professor throughout the semester. This class is a great choice for a science credit. 5 quizzes, no tests, and 5 homework assignments to go along with the quizzes. Very interesting and not a difficult class! Shaun is very helpful at office hours as well.

He did a great job co-teaching this course. He is passionate about the subject, and the lectures are interesting. A great course to take for students who are curious about natural hazards, or who are looking for a science class that is both rewarding and also on the lighter side.
