Comment:

Horrible; just horrible. Reads directly from the text and possesses little knowledge on any academic subject. Has no desire to criticize ideas, only students. Perhaps his degree was purchased online. Take his course only if you want blemishes on your transcript. I wish him only the worst.

Comment:

I find that he knows what he is talking about very well, and that he is an intelligent man, however he just does not possess any skill in teaching or communicating.Class was hard, had to spend 10 hrs/day in library for weeks to get 70 on one exam.

skip classes and just read the text book, read the case examples used in the book he usually rephrases them and uses them on the exams.

Comment:

I would suggest that students in Howe's class organize as a group. Individual complaints are ignored. And one sunny moron does not the truth make. Howe IS a seriously deficient professor and should not be teaching, period. Fair! NOT!

Comment:

The course material was presented in a logical, organized fashion. The professor has high standards, but is fair. The students who complain about this course must either not be bright, or must study very little. Grow up people, this isn't high school!!!

Teaches directly from the textbook chapter summaries. Exams are exceedingly difficult. Totally unwilling to help. Avoid if possible.

This class was hard. The tests are hard. There is a lot of note taking, most of which you can just get from the book anyways. I did well in the class considering, but I would probably avoid his classes in the future.

He is teaching this course again. Please, please, please, if you took this course, complain to Dean Kim Fedderson. Avoid Howe and Hayman as they don't care.

Well for a 2nd year course, it was harder than a 4th year course I took this year, the exams were overly precise, the information was overwhelming, his lectures were slim and a book review, sorry I can read the book myself. If you don't need a class of h

He is the worst professor I have ever had. His exams are not structured. His leactures are straight from the text book. He does not care about his students or his classes.
