Comment:

Great teacher, does not really give helpful explanations to questions. Does have a minor accent. Projects are a big weight in this class so if you're not a fan of deadlines avoid this class. Tests are timemanagement based so finish the questions that are worth the most, tests were graded on a curve! Only hands back test. Project grades are unknown.

Comment:

This professor is very hard to understand. His lectures are very drawn out, boring, and unproductive. He reads from slides and the class is not interactive what so ever. Trying to study for tests is difficult because he doesn't narrow the scope at all. Over all I would not take him again. I made the mistake of neglecting his rating the 1st time....

Comment:

Teach just puts up slides and reads off them. Not very helpful but tests are from the notes. Labs are basically copy paste and hope you can figure out what is going on. The teach won't help you with the labs and there is nothing in the text book or online on how to get them to work.

Comment:

Assignments are not returned until the end of the semester; you do not know what improvements, if any, are required because there is no feedback. Lecture involves putting slides on an overhead, some arm waving, and no real explanation or response to meaningful questions. You're better off taking the course with someone less Arbitrary & Capricious.

Very heavy accent and he is very rushed. Hybrid course with one day in class and the other online, but he still tries to cover the whole book in class. Participation is very important.

He has a heavy accent and he is a little hard to understand during lectures. exams are fairly easy with 1 page cheatsheet, and he usually grades on a curve. he is funny sometimes which made the class enjoyable

Comment:

Ethics is not an exciting class, but he made it entertaining as you can. He slacks on returning papers and giving grades. By the end of te semester we didn't really know where we stood in the class (it's curved), so your final grade will be a suprise !! lol

Excellent teacher. Knows what he's talking about. Had him for several classes, but he excels at teaching graduate level courses. He is one of my favorite teachers of all time. You either like him or you hate him.

Made a class that I thought was going to be dull very fun. I felt I learned a lot in his class. The projects were sometimes difficult, but he did offer help. Fun sense of humor too. Don't fall asleep or be late to class - he will make a spectacle of you!

Comment:

He has a good sense of humor. He works mostly with the textbook overhead slides, but knows the material well. I enjoyed his lectures; I think he does better when students express an interest in the subject.
