Comment:
He is a solid choice for online Stats. Lectures are not mandatory and graded homework is very manageable. The tests are pretty difficult and make up 80% of your grade if I remember correctly. Make sure you get the calculator that he has, learn to use it well, and bring it with you to the exam. If you do that, the tests become significantly easier.

No late work, no extra credit, it's really cut and dry - tests and some homework. My class average was 66% overall, but I felt there was enough material to get yourself ready for the tests, not to mention multiple questions from the practice test were on the test (verbatim). Allows 1 page of notes, a graphing calculator, and it's multiple guess.

I took his class online and I will say that it is a hard class. You HAVE to pay attention and watch the lectures. He also grades a few things. There were only 2 exams and the final was worth 30%. I would study a lot because I found his exams to be difficult.

He's a great teacher and actually cares about students doing well in his class. The quizzes are for extra credit so don't stress out about them too much, he stops giving out homework towards the end of the semester, and he scales the tests quite fairly. Just make sure to do the practice problems and the class will be an easy A!

It's a tough class no matter who is teaching it. Took it online. Homework is easy. Some of the questions on the tests are not in the study guide, but some questions are directly the same as study guide. Allows you to use notecard for test write small. He curved every test that I had by points which most were out of 30 to 40 points so he is good.

3 tests that make up almost all of your grade, pretty straightforward for the material but he tries to trick you on the tests which is frustrating. Can know the material and still do poorly on the test.

Online class online homework. Some lectures are helpful for the homework. The tests contain things not on the practice test or study guide. 3 tests worth 90% of total grade. Final IS comprehensive.

I took his LOGOM3300 class online. I wouldn't recommend it. Some online classes suffer from professors who haven't updated their class information for a few years. This was one of them. This led to confusion over what needed to be turned in and what didn't, as well as some homework examples using different numbers than the ones assigned. Avoid.

Funny;Passionate about statistics and wants students to be successful; encourages you to ask questions; lectures are slow and you copy a lot from powerpoint that he doesn't post online; allowed a notecard "cheat sheet" for multiple choice tests; Show up, take biweekly quizzes, complete online homework, and you will do well;

He was great! His lectures and tests are pretty straight forward. If you show up and turn stuff in on time then you will do fine. I had an issue where I had to take an exam outside of class. He totally forgot even though I talked to him in person and emailed him twice. It was a hassle to get him to send the test to the testing center.

Comment:
Horrible experience! I took this course online and communication was awful. The Panaptos were confusing and many times I would have to goto other resources outside class to get insight. Many people in my class complained via email soapbox about how difficult the tests were. Would highly recommend one of the other two professors who teach the class.

Comment:
Online lectures were short and did not go through enough examples to prepare you for the homework. The homework and practice tests are nothing like the exams. All problems were weighted evenly and only worth one point which was really unfair. Rarely responded to students questions via email. Overall bad experience and would not recommend.

I don't recommend him. He doesn't really explain the concepts very well, mostly has u copy things off slides that he doesn't put online. Homework due each week (sometimes problems that he didn't go over) and pop quizzes that suck. For the 1st test he messed up the time limit, so he offered a retest but would only take the 2nd score,not the higher1

Comment:
If you answer a question incorrectly during a lecture, he'll tell you to do 20 pushups in front of the class as a joke. He likes to tease students by telling them to prepare to retake his class next semester if they don't do well on their HW or exams. Good and funny teacher but a challenging class.

This class was extremely hard the tests seemed almost impossible only half of the learned materiel would be on the test. However if you come to class & turn in all homework, you will pass. Plain and simple. He curves your test. But beware he does not curve in 3320. We had a teaching assistant that wasnt very helpful. Made you regret asking her a ?

Overall he is a good teacher. He cracks jokes all the time and he does not make the class too hard for the student at all. He would lecture first and let us do some problems and go over them in class. His exam is not hard at all, all multiple choices! If you go to his class and do the problems, and spend 2 hr before exams, you will get a good grade
