Bagdan is the best. He is someone you can be really honest with. Communicate with him and he will help you the best you can! He is easy to work with and as long as you pay attention to all his links on ulearn, you'll pass everything. Don't know whats on a test or what to study? Ask him! He can help you.

Beware! First he seems very nice, but as the course progresses he gets worse. The group projects are a pain, he claims he will kick out unproductive group members but never does. Also, he doesn't do any multiple choice quizzes, only short answer. You can have a cheat sheet during the quizzes but he is not specific so they're a waste of time

This guy is GREAT!! He is my favorite professor in the school! His class was really interesting and I really learned a ton. I know they are ending the course I took, but if he has any others take them!! Great class, I was excited for it everyday. Also all his test were open book and open notes.

Comment:
A good guy at heart, and introduced him self as the "nice professor". But he gets progressively the opposite as the Tri goes on. The class consists of 4 ,70 question tests, a final test and project, and couple BS homework assignments. The peak of his teaching is reading from a powerpoint. He's better off sticking to his professions in the classroom

Lots of group work but if you have a good group than you will be fine. Tests are open book open notes and he really keeps you interested by making the class period fun.

Dr. Bagdan is one of the best teachers at JWU. His classes are challenging and there is quite a heavy work load, but it's manageable if you go to class everyday. Most work is in groups as well. He really works hard to make the students understand the material. He has a great sense of humor and keeps the classroom atmosphere light. Great Professor!

He is one of the better ones. He did hold people accountable. He should. I didn't care because my group did their work.

He really is passionate about what's he's teaching but he is also all over the place with what he teaches. He allows one page of written notes per test so use the entire paper! I recommend doing honors option for this class, it took a lot of work but he was very helpful with any questions I had. Do all the work he asks and pay attention in class and you won't have a hard time passing.

Comment:
I could never tell if he was sincerely passionate or if he was just pretending to be nice and caring. He is kind of full of himself I guess you could say, but I suppose he was a decent teacher. You definitely cannot miss or be late to class because he does take alot of points off. Tests were mercurial, either really easy or hard; it varied.
