Comment:

Terry is a great prof. I had him for the W 2016 semester. He explains concepts clearly and is very accessible outside of class. The assignments are time consuming but well worth the effort. His assignments and lectures give you a good idea of what computer science is all about. This course encouraged me to take further comp sci courses.

Comment:

Extremely boring lectures where at least 5 students are sleeping in. Textbook is a waste of money. The assignments are very tough and time consuming. It's hard to figure out what's important or what's not in his lectures. He is very accessible outside class.

Comment:

Terry is a nice prof, and an easy marker. However, his lectures are extremely boring (Especially for a Tues-Thurs slot) and the notes weren't exactly helpful either. Expect to learn a lot of the material on your own. Also, the assignments are very long and time consuming. Start 2 weeks in advance or you'll struggle to finish.

Pretty good prof. Teaches you enough so that you can figure out the rest on your own. Definitely attend class, he gives small chunks of code randomly (often at the start of class) that helps big time with the huge assignments.

Comment:

It's a course in which you have to work hard and put a lot of time for the assignments. He's a decent prof overall when it comes to teaching the material. He's a very cut and dry individual, so don't bother going to him about missed assignments or whatever. He will not sympathize with you.

Comment:

Not having any experience in computer science I was worried and I defiantly had to work hard to do well but Terry was willing to help and he wanted us to do well. There was an assignment every week most taking at least 7 hours of work so defiantly a lot of take home but after being done the course, I find it interesting.

Comment:

If you have never taken a comp sci class before, he can be very hard to follow and he does not explain everything that you are supposed to learn. The TA in lab often had to make up for the lack of instructions. Lectures were dry and filled with a ton of tangents. There was a serious lack of in class examples.

Really good prof who wants students to earn. I disagree with comment below about the Assignments, they are definitely worth the time. Without doing the assignments you won't fully grasp concepts. Helps out of class when not understanding something.

Comment:

This class was extremely boring (not the fault of the professor). Class was not mandatory, however for the excel assignment, I recommende you to take your laptop to class & follow step by step. Material was overall easy, & marking was fair. Make sure you study for tests & exams. Terry really had an interest in his students & wants you to do well.

Comment:

Classes were boring, but the material was quite dry. He was very fair and gave students lots of opportunities to make up for lost marks. Has a genuine interest in wanting students to learn. I'd consider having him again as long as the subject isn't boring as hell

Go to class! He goes step by step through the entire assignments! copy down everything he says and you'll get 100% on all homework. quizzes and tests are the hard part of this class, study both his notes and the textbook and you should be okay for them though.

Comment:

Terry is one of the best teachers I've had. He's very patient and helpful outside of class if you have questions or problems with any course material including homework. His exams are a bit on the tough side, but if you know your material you will do fine. I would highly recommend taking any course with this guy if you're looking to actually learn!
