Comment:
Dr. Pringle made Physics 2135 (II) so enjoyable. Pringle is one of those guys who really wants you to succeed. He is passionate about his work and makes the long lectures fun with small "breaks", sly jokes/puns/etc. Tests can be challenging, but they get easier as the semester goes on. LEAD is so-so, not nearly as helpful as it was for physics I.

Pringle is a pretty good instructor. I get lost in his lectures sometimes but he posts his slides so I just learn it from there later. He gives tests that are fair with reasonable expectations of what you should have learned.

Pringle is a great teacher who loves what he teaches more than any teacher i've ever had. He never makes mistakes on the board in class and he explains everything well with the short time he is given to do so. You want him

Dr. Pringle is the best. Physics 24 should be the model class for all other large classes at S&T. It is the best coordinated class I have ever taken!

Be sure to read the section because Dr. Pringle will only gloss over stuff. As an incentive to come to class the first 10 mins or so are dedicated to watching a Wallace and Grommet movie, take that for what you will.

Awesome teacher, tests are very reasonable. Go to PLC and do homework there and board work should be a piece of cake. And if u want to do well on lecture quizzes sit in the front with all the smart people. Dr. Pringle is an awesome teacher who tries to make the class enjoyable and fun.

awesome guy...not such a great teacher. he gets stuff confused a lot and he'll spend more time talking about stuff you won't have to know for the test than teaching. go to recitation and do the homework. he forgets that the students are just now learning this stuff. but he's still awesome. don't miss the lecture quizzes tho cuz thats easy points

Dr. Pringle is a no doubt a funny guy, but if you want to learn the material, stay in your room, get the slides offline and read the book. Class is kinda a joke, he makes it fun but often speeds through the important foundation material. I give him an A+ for Wallis and Gromit. One last thing, DO NOT learn the Right Hand Rule from him!

Not nearly as difficult as Physics 23. Very funny teacher, I actually enjoy going to class. Often does small experiments if time allows. Lectures are posted online, as well as multiple old exams, so you don't have much of an excuse to do poorly in this class. Overall very good teacher, definitely recommended.

A reasonably easy course. You still have to work for the grade (do homework, go to class), but the teacher is a really fun guy, and he teaches quite well.

Comment:
Physics 24 is much more relaxed than Physics 23, largely due to the fact that Dr. Pringle is much more relaxed and approachable than Dr. Bieniek. Class format is very similar and the difficulty of the material is about the same, maybe a little easier than Physics 23.

Great guy. Essentially gives you the answers on most quizzes. Shows Wallace and Grommit. Interjects some funny stories and good demonstrations. Easier than Phys23.

Completely opposite the Phys 23 lecturer. Very down to earth, clear explanations, very competent. Available outside of class for assistance if necessary. Teaches very well. Would definitely choose this professor if you can!

A complete 360 from Bieniek. Very down-to-earth, nice, and lets you talk about quizzes with your neighbors. His lectures cover some confusing material, but he presents it well.
