Norwood is an excellent professor. He allows you freedom to work on your own ideas but is also able to very clearly assist in all technical aspects of projects. He is a great artist and a great instructor, I respect him and value his input.

He doesnt help you at all. and if you ask for help he will just give you some confusing critique that is not helpful at all. plus he hovers over you while you work.. bad teacher.

First of all, he needs to learn how to say what he means, and to mean what he says. He is often unclear and contradicting. Class participation is 40% of your grade, try to participate, although he does most of the talking.
