Comment:

Dr. Blank is a hilarious guy. He goes at a fast pace and uses humor to keep the class interesting. The pace was hard to keep up with at first but I discovered I remembered more by him talking fast. He's interesting and the class isn't difficult if you do your work.

Comment:

HE SUCKS! Worst teacher I've ever had. He messes up on problems that he is working out. He laughs when the majority of the class doesn't answer correctly. It's basically a weed-out class so he teaches very fast and doesn't explain. The other chem2 prof isn't good either. I got a tutor and ended up making an "A" but def not because of Blank.

Comment:

At first, I couldn't understand anything he was saying, but I learned to catch on fast. If you study the material before you go to class, you will understand everything he is saying. Overall, funny and nice guy! I enjoyed going to class even though I hate chemistry.

Comment:

DON'T TAKE BLANK! I literally wanted to run out of the room screaming in every class. He talks like an auctioneer, emphasizing words that don't matter and then speeding through everything else. He gives nowhere near enough time to answer clicker questions, and then laughs when people miss them. The material is EASY though, just don't take him!

Comment:

This guy is super nice but the way he teaches just wasn't for me. He talks really fast so it makes it hard to keep up. He also quizzes you with clickers right after going over material like we are going to understand it that quickly. His tests are ok but very long and hardly anyone finishes on time - he even says that the first day of class. Study!

This guy is amazing, absolutely amazing! The class was super fun! He tells jokes, plays video clips, and makes the class so interactive. It's a highly stimulating experience.

Comment:

I really liked this guy. He's funny and fast-paced, but not so fast-paced that you can't keep up. Some days lecture will be really overwhelming, but he knows what material is harder than the rest and covers it more. He uses clickers in class for attendance and to quiz the class on material just covered. Great class.

Comment:

His enthusiasm makes it easier to pay attention. Obviously knows what he is talking about quite well, and provides a lot of resources via webct and a bound copy of notes and old exams. He is also very open to answering questions and helping students anytime. Class moves fast, but that's to be expected in summer session. Blank is a good prof.

Comment:

Good prof! Energetic and funny! I would do the reading in advance though because Blank goes REALLY fast and you might get lost otherwise. If you take him, GO TO CLASS. Clicker points can kill you. I found this out the hard way :(

I had Dr. Blank a couple of semesters ago. I didn't like the class, because his style reminded me of a street salesman.

Comment:

Blank speaks 90 miles per hour! Makes it hard to follow. He knows his stuff, but if you struggled in 1315, he may go too fast to keep up because if you don't know the material from 1315, he won't go over it for more than a minute.

Comment:

Dr. Blank is lively to say the least. Some people really enjoy his upbeat method of teaching, while others don't take to it quite so well. To be honest, I found it much easier to learn the mateial on my own, rather than attend lecture. He moves quite fast, but is very generous about office hours if you need the help. Overall, not bad.

he think he helps maintain interest by yell things and stretching out vowels, but it's actually more distracting than the signer-aid in the class
