Comment:

his tests are made up of his quizzes. I knew more walking into the class compared to walking out. he confused the hell out of the entire class. you never know how he's going to grade. thankfully he curves each assignment, quiz, test, and then final grade. I should have failed his class but after all the curves I received an A. very unorganized.

Comment:

Honestly, he was one of the worst professors I have ever had. Did not grade labs until the very end of the semester. The homework grade was separate from quizzes/tests grade so calculating total grade was difficult with different weighting of each section. The homework was ridiculous. You have to work hard and let him know you are in order to pass.

Comment:

Dennis is a fantastic teacher and is obviously very passionate about Physics. His class is hard, but he grades on a curved scale. He gives "pop" quizzes every two weeks, includes an attendance grade, and gives a test every three chapters or so. Try to read the chapter/do the homework before quizzes, it helps. I'd definitely recommend his class.

Comment:

Dennis is a friendly professor who wants his students to pass a difficult class. He will not cut slack for not learning how to use the equations, but he gives you the equations for every quiz and every grade. All you have to do is practice using them. He works hard on making sure the online homework is relevant

Comment:

Dennis is a great guy and someone who I would choose as a friend. But physics isn't easy and any physics test is difficult. He doesn't expect you to memorize any formula. If you understand the concepts you will do well.

He is awesome! Physics is going to be hard regardless of how good the professor is but Dennis did a great job of making it interesting. He was always there when anyone needed his help. He is extremely smart and he loves what he teaches. Honestly the best professor I have ever had!

Dennis is a very great teacher. If you pay attention in class and do the homework you will pass. He is very helpful, and very enthusiastic! If you put the effort needed into the class, passing is not a problem.

Great teacher, but tough. I was happy with a "B". You've got to do the homework to survive this class.

Comment:

Unfortunately I withdrew from the class midway through. This class required too much time outside of class for me;I had to teach myself. His passion for Physics is evident in his lectures, yet, I felt not enough time was spent on how to solve word problems.He is part-time and has little time for individual attention. Practice makes perfect.

Comment:

Physics I with Myers is work. A lot of it. But if you can commit to the homework, tests are reasonable, lectures bearable, and labs are fun. If one MUST take physics, I would recommend Myers.

I thought Dennis was great. He was always willing to make sure that you understood the material while good about answering questions outside of class. Attend lecture, DO THE HOMEWORK and you should be fine.

Comment:

This is a hard class, with a lot of weight on quizzes and tests, but I liked it. I think he is good at teaching and explaining subjects. Im taking physics 2 from him. But if your gonna take him, DO THE HOMEWORK, even though its not worth a grade it will ultimately make your grade.
