Comment:

He should be teaching the classes in software engineering. You need to get used to him and his way of teaching. Once you do, other teachers will have nothing on him. Already miss having him as a teacher. Class is not a joke... make sure to do your work.

Awesome course and awesome teacher. Content is very useful and so interesting to learn. Lecturer is enthusiastic and knows what he is talking about. He's happy to help and wants students to succeed. TopHat questions are good for testing knowledge too.

Comment:

You will hate him at first but he will grow on you. He is seems more strict in class than he actually is. Midterm and final seem very hard but he grade pretty easily. Midterm and final are open book Can't avoid Umple The non programming assignments are subjective so argue as much as you can with the ta's. Assignments worth 30%.(easy grades)

Comment:

Lethbridge is okay at what he does. He bases the class on his own book, so it's generally very easy to get an A+, much less pass. He is rather annoying, but at least he's not boring. He goes on interesting rants and when he's wrong about something his reactions are downright hilarious; he gets really flustered. Easy course -- take it for that.

Comment:

Deviates from the useful material in order to shamelessly promote his research project UMPLE. Several assignments and labs were actually dedicated to the use of this broken and slow software. This is ironic considering this course is meant to teach proper software engineering. Most assignments are vague and haphazard. He also patronizes students.

Love Timothy Lethbridge. A very involved, passionate professor who loves engineering and computer science. Among the best profs at Uottawa. Just wish this was a more interesting course. I guess it's a good way to raise your GPA because both midterm and final are multiple choice/open book, and TAs are really easy on you on assignments/essays.

Comment:

Textbook is useless. Open note exams, easy to do well on those. Interesting guest speakers. Presenting in front of the whole class was challenging but the marking of them seemed relaxed/fair. A few essays to write though! Overall a boring class in which not that much is learned for which there is not much of an excuse not to get an A+.

He seems like a good prof at first but, then it gets really annoying having to listen to him. His tests are really hard. And he's a hard marker.

Really professional and easy to understand. Explains well, and will answers any questions you have in class. He wrote the textbook used in the course; this is a god thing because he knows how to communicate the info effectively. Midterms are open-book.

Comment:

Very professional and charismatic. He enjoys teaching the material which makes it more enjoyable to learn. Likes to make references to his own published works even when unneccessary, but that's more of a quirk than a flaw. Course material is easy and well-structured, even easier if you have already taken SEG3300.

Definitely a PROFESSIONAL and EXPERT in his domain. Clear, logically structured notes,interesting and challenging assignments. Motivates whole class throughout the course. However, demands a lot, so if you want a good mark, u gotta work for it. Strongly recommended.
