Comment:

He's alright. Class can be fun, but actually learning something might be hard. Spends WAY too much time in class on pointless things like reading aloud every single value in a truth table, rather than explaining important concepts.

Comment:

Flopped yet another potentially fun course. Tests include trivia such as part numbers. 4 weeks to learn VHDL AND complete design project, which has 28 page description of objectives and deliverables. Assigned 3 chapters of homework the night before the day of the final and the day the project is due. Didn't give grading critieria until last week.

Class was always interesting, in a Jerry Garcia kind of way.

Comment:

Took "switching and logic" and "circuits". In circuits, he only showed up for class ~3/4 of time. Exams are not always relevant to most important course topics. Do not recommend him. But, you will probably have to take him anyway...
