Comment:

Disregard the last guy. It actually is a pretty easy class. Some of the assignments are tough but he could have made it worse. Great prof, very funny. Interesting class. Take it with him. Mark Booster if you are pretty good with computers. Midterm was tough but easy final.

Comment:

nice proff, but this class is really dry, exams are tough.He does expect you to know everything, i think he could have make it easier because those knowledge probably wn't be used in real life....I mean, for accounting students. Just make it easier....this can be a interesting class without tough short answers and super long projects.

Comment:

without a doubt the worst proff i have ever had during my university studies. he may have been an easy proff previous years but when i took this he was really bad. his multiple choice questions has 8 possible answers to choose from and his true/false questions didn't make alot of sense. this guy needs to learn how to write exams and how to teach.

Great prof, mostly interesting and loves to crack the odd jokes. Knows what he is talking about, and helpful overall. Would recommend him to anyone. Fair midterm/final.

Comment:

Great professor and pretty funny as well. One of the more outgoing teachers I have had. Midterm and final exams were fair, no big suprises. If you go to class he tells you the important things that you should know for exams. The assignments made the class a bit heavier regarding workload. I would definately take a course from him again!

It seems like all his lectures are thrown together without much thought. Not the most interesting class but his humour helps you through it.

Terry thinks he's hilarious. If you can deal with his lame jokes and off topic rants, this class is ok. He posts all the lectures online which is nice, and the tutorial is helpful. Don't buy the textbook, it is useless.

Comment:

Professor Roebuck makes this class interesting and very understandable. He is very easy to get help from. The midterm and assignments were not hard if you paid attention and were willing to ask for help when you got stuck on coding.

Midterm was the worst exam I've ever had. 90 mainly true/false. Why not just give everyone the same mark for showing up?

Terry made this class as interesting as anyone possibly could (it's pretty boring). He shared cool stories about current topics and also was helpful outside of class.

Its too bad he's retiring, because CMPT 352 wouldn't even exist if it wasn't for him. He's done a damn fine job over the years.

class was easy, Terry was one of my better profs. His classes were kinda long and dragged on too much but other than that, was easy marks. He was good about giving lots of time for the assingments and info about the exams.

easy class (a little too easy). The content is kinda a joke. Terry is a good guy, but he uses rediculous analogies and drags out explanations. Oh well. I guess it's the mark that counts. see ya

Funny guy. Enthusiasm is contagious. I mean, how can you make intro to computers interesting?? Everybody already knows it. Sometimes material is boring and dragged on, but, nonethless always clearly explained. He gave out warnings for tests and assignments too - helpful hinting.
