Comment:
He is not a bad teacher, but not the best. Some of the material is unclearly presented at first. You will need to practice often. I like how he makes you think in class , he is the type of teacher to let a student learn fem their mistakes. He takes massive points off on the exams. Group work counts as a grade. I would take him again with hindsight.

Comment:
step by step instructions given during class on how to complete each problem. All of the tests are from examples/problems he writes on the board. As long as you are a good notetaker and complete the homework problems from the book, it's pretty simple. Also a good class to take just to learn the basics.

He knows what he's talking about and gives useful information (useful, not difficult). This class could be taught by a high school student. I get a lot of doodling practice in this class. Stubleupon.com is also a great time passer. If you need an "A", sign up!

Fun teacher. The class isnt too hard, but make sure you go to class and take notes. if you pay attention you'll do fine on his tests. He always puts a question on the test that makes you think, a trick question so be ready for them. all in all not bad at all.

Comment:
Overall good professor. If you attend class and pay attention there is much to be learned, however he is a VERY tough grader. Small mistakes can lead to massive point loss on problems. Definitely feels like an "A" or "F" class. Very tough on English grammar. Possible to fail ANY of Dr. Webber's Programming classes due misuse of English in write ups

Comment:
I took Dr. Webber for Calculus I, II, and III, and I think he is great. He is very fair and never loses his cool. Calculus is a difficult class no matter who the professor. The book is helpful, especially the CD. TRY THE CD IN THE BOOK and make sure you do some problems every day or so and you will get an A in Dr. Webber's class.

he's a smart guy, a bit arrogant and closed-minded at times, but he knows the material. he gives frequent homework and takes off way too many points for minor errors. i wouldn't vouch for his ability to teach math courses well, but he's great at teaching programming.

one thing to say. He is EXACTLY like Peter Parker's boss at the Daily Bugle in the movie Spiderman. Looks and Presonality. Take a different class.

He's a jerk. Once he came into class and bent over and said "this is where my lecture is coming from." Q.E.D.

GREAT teacher, heartily enthusiastic, clear explanations! I was in honors programming, with only HS QBasic for experience and I Aced. Lots of work, especially if you can't code right the first time ;p but great class.

This professor is awful. He grades EXTREMELY harshly. He's a bitter smart-ass. He rolls through information with no attention to detail yet grades with heavy attention to detail. He's also BIG on useless busy-work. Never get caught in this mans class.

Good professor. Very easy to learn from if you pay attention and show up to class. I would highly reccomend him for calculus and 204-206.
