The lectures were helpful and relevant to the course, all the homework was well structured and helpful to learning the course content, and the tutorials were great for practicing recently learned material.

Great proff. Really cares about student's quality of learning, and student's well being in a non-fake and still professional way. She taught well and clearly, and made herself seem encouraging and approachable.

I loved her teaching style, and I loved how much she cared about us. She brought enthusiasm, and I miss her, now that I'm in CSC207.

She is the best prof I ever had during my first year. Her lectures are great and even more great during office hours. She is very approachable and explains things very clearly during office hours. She is a very nice prof: even if you are the dumbest student in the course, if you ask her to review material for you, she will with her best effort.

One of the best profs I've ever had! There were some problems with the auto-tester for an assignment this year, and some unclear instructions, but Diane is an amazing professor and those things shouldn't stop you from taking a class with her!

Good: She is a fun and easy-going professor. Decent lectures if u attend all. She only test materials you learn. Good--Bad: Assignments are fairly easy but instructions were not clear enough, I got 86, 86 and 95 on three assignments this semester. However, considering they have to make up all these big assignments, it is hard for them too.

Awful experience. Can't even finish things on the syllabus. It was the first time that the professor tried using auto-tester. No test cases at first and no description in details. All handouts were too vague to understand. TAs and professors frequently gave a different explanation on the same question. Average 1.5 hrs answer time on piazza

Diane Horton is one of the best profs U of T has to offer. Helpful in office hours. I struggled with CSC148 and she was always there to help. She really cares about her students.

This course is a lot of work but the material is not difficult to understand and Professor Horton is a skilled lecturer. Her tests can be tricky.

Professor H explains concepts with great clarity, and loves to answer student's questions. She likes to give many examples in class such as worksheet problems for students to work on before walking us through, she would also post solutions online afterwards. Overall one of the best professor I've had!

I actually liked going to class, she made it fun. She had a good sense of humor and would walk through wrong answers with us before correcting us so the material really sunk in. We did exercise together which were really useful. She was very supportive and helpful. The assignments were demanding, but the midterm was easy if you were keeping up.
