pointless to go to class, but he takes attendance... learned nothing from him, tests are hard do problems not assigned for homework, they might show up on the tests... worst class ever.

nice person, but horrible teacher. uses powerpoint, talks about a lot of irrelevent stuff, and almost never uses the chalkboard or solves a problem. you'll end up learning the stuff on your own cause noone can remain fully concious in his class.

Not a bad class. Do your work and do a lot of problems to study. Lectures are boring and not necessary, but he gives extra credit if you go.

Comment:
Had him twice. Probably one of the nicest guys in the department. He cares alot of his students and appreciates hard work come grade time. True, he can be a little less than clear but he knows his physics.

I'm a physics major and I had him for 207 and 313. He's a horrible teacher and doesn't know how to speak in front of a class. Luckily he's good at giving partial credit. You'll have to learn from the book, hopefully it's a good one.

I concur with everyone else and must state that he is a horrible teacher. However, do the homeworks and study the hardest problems. His final is comprised of questions from previous exams.

He's a pretty boring teacher, but very nice guy and very helpful outside of class. Class is easy as long as you read the book and do the homework

I'd be willing to bet most of you morons posting bad ratings are just bitter because you've recieved a bad grade. If you made the effort to talk to him outside of class he's very helpful. Keep in mind the difficulty level of the class.

Nice guy, very soft spoken and hard to follow. Don't go to lectures because they are boring and not relevant to exams. Do a lot of problems from the text

Wow....I can honestly say that the lectures were worthless and the text is that useful either. Hard exams and hard final, but trust me, you want him over MacDonald. Mitchell gives more partial credit....thank god for that on the exams.

I hope you took physics in highschool. Hard to follow lectures (print out the notes), can't read his writing, homework is tough but exams much easier. The curve will save you from killing your GPA.

He's a nice guy. His lectures are boring and he doesn't really make anything clear. You can print out his lecture notes which are letter for letter what he discusses in lectures.

Nice guy, but not a good teacher. For some reason you just can't learn from him. Try to read the book (which is bad in itself), or just hope you already know the material. Big curve, though, and you can print out his notes.
