Comment:
If you don't do well, he'll let you know in front of the entire class. He's very eccentric, not a bad teacher, but I believe somewhat oblivious to the remarks he makes about some students and unaware that he is embarrassing them...or maybe he's fully aware? Class was still easy, you just have to do the work and put up with staying the entire 3 hrs

Comment:
I liked Dr. Lou. He does have a sense of humor and I could see how it could be taken the wrong way, as he jokes around in class, but I do think he pushes students to think and learn, making the class one of the better ones in the department. Not just an easy A, but worth the effort for the knowledge you'll gain. STUDY for tests--they're hard.

If you can get out of this class and get another teacher, then do it. You will struggle all the way through this class if you are not currently a teacher. He will not answer your questions unless he makes fun of you first. He is intimidating.

Comment:
This class was painful, confusing, and misguided. Also, the professor has no qualms poking fun at students in class regarding grades. The class content is dense and was delivered in an unprofessional manner. Make sure you do BLOODY well on the mid-term, or it will be a long semester.

Comment:
Constant sarcasm ... supposed to be a joke? It's not funny. Berates students frequently (also supposed to be in good humor...) because of his own insecurities and defensiveness. Don't bother asking questions - he'll try to make you look stupid for asking (and you won't get your answer). I don't think he wants to be teaching this course.

This class is very useful but difficult to follow for various learning styles. Dr. Lou is very intelligent in this area so study and write everything down in class. I wish they gave a study guide for this class but he does give candy every night so be ready with snacks.

Dr. Lou is a very smart man; I don't think anyone would argue with that. However, he is not very skilled at presenting the material in a way that is comprehendable to someone who doesn't have a background in research. Take at your own risk.

Dr. Lou is very funny. He looks like Walter Mathau and sounds like Al Pachino. If you like impressions or quoting from movies, you'll like Dr. Lou. I don't see how people can think he is rude or mean. He has a great personality and he'll help you. Plus, he hands out candy every class LOL.

Instructor is very knowledgable in the area of Research, however he knows absolutely nothing about teaching or getting the material across. Please run for your lives and never take him.
