Comment:

Goodman is a genius. He knows everything. I watched him make a radio out of a coconut. I heard he once chewed up a peice of tin foil and spit out a microprocessor. The only problem is that it is hard for us average IQed folks to understand his lectures. He gave open book tests, but I'm not good at those for some reason. Great teacher, very helpful!

Comment:

Dr. Goodman is one of my top 3 favorite professors from WVU Tech (along with Mansour & Farooq), and I've had quite a few in the last 10 years. He is brilliant, helpful, and genuinely cares about his students. He's kind of like a mix between Mr. Wizard and Mr. Rogers! :) I look forward to more classes with him; I actually learn!

Comment:

Very brilliant professor. Unfortunately, this genius is a little too esoteric for me as his lectures are all theory and hard to understand. A nightmare scenario: Goodman teaches the class, Ram gives the tests, and Farooq grades them.

Comment:

Goodman is not hard, unless you're lazy and aren't very orginized. He doesn't mind helping you with homework...even several times for the same problem, and he never makes you feel like an idiot if you don't understand something. Good professor! Goodman and Wu are the only good professors in EE.

Comment:

Dr Goodman is very smart and pretty fair. His tests are open book, but his homework is a bit cumbersome. He also welcomes students who have questions. He's definetly easier than Ram and smarter than Farooq
