Comment:
Dr. Robles is an extremely bright individual with a will to teach, but more of a focus on you learning the material for yourself, if you need hand outs and posted notes, not the class for you. this class can be entertaining while still highly rewarding. Its easy to get a good mark if your willing to learn.

Comment:
Time spent in class with Robles is time you will never get back again. His lectures are idiotic, simple, and inane. He is pompous and makes fun of students like an immature teenager. Not funny, just annoying. Huge time waster for serious students. Mark is predetermined. Run away, run far, far, away.

Comment:
didn't go to class, just read the assigned stuff, gave us the exam questions....first couple of tests were multiple choice, then he changed to essay type but still gave you topics, so you pretty much researached and memorized...very easy class but difficult for some who delved too deep, no point in taking notes in class since not on test ..got an A

Ummm... he's a nice guy... obviously incredibly smart. knows his stuff. but i don't think he teaches very well. kinda random lectures. i liked the class but i thought it could have been a lot better considering the interesting topics we could have touched on.

Comment:
Wilder's a little crazy, but that just makes he class interesting. There were a million readings to do, but tests and exams weren't hard as he gives you the questions beforehand. The lectures were a little random though, and I'm not sure if I learned anything new.

My ratings aren't very high, but Wilder is a funny teacher. Beware: many people say your mark is decided before the class begins. Don't really learn much from lectures. The class is enjoyable but lacks direction.

He loves stories, loves tequila, and his cowboy hat. He is interesting to listen to but his class lacks direction and I felt I didn't get much out of it.

Hmm, he's always a little too excited about everything to give it much thought! But he is principled, supportive and committed to educating. ANd he's funny.

his knowledge is quite intimidating, but if you're a good writer you will fare well. READ YOUR STUFF because this guy will NOT focus on any of it in class.

Scattered, $300 on books never dicussed in class, tests and papers... but when all is said and done he's an exciting guy to have as a teacher with a wealth of experience and ideas.

I had Robles for one month as a sub for the original prof for my IDS class and I still have no idea what we were supposed to learn from the lectures he gave us. Likes to go on tangents and doesn't indicate the purpose of these off topic discussions.

Clarity lacking but if you take a minute to chat he can be helpful and definitely reawards those that take initiative to learn about a topic that interests them. Final exam was on assigned readings that were hard to understand and never discussed in class
