Comment:

Woz is a fantastic teacher. He will work you hard, but only because he wants his students to learn (I believe this 100%). You need to do your work, but he is good about rewarding students who have worked hard at the end of the semester. So even if you think you're in bad shape, hang in there. ENJOY WOZ-you will not have a better teacher at U of I.

Comment:

GE320 is the hardest GE class required, so it kinda sucked. Woz is an ok teacher for explaining material, but he is a good person. He cares about his students. You'll grow from his teaching, whether you realize it or not. Get to know a TA and go to office hours a lot.

Woz is awesome. This material is really tough, and even with such a large age gap between him and his students he does a great job. You can tell he cares about his students, but dang this class sucks.

Comment:

The material is difficult and confusing but you can do well if you go to class, watch the lecture videos (more helpful than the actual lectures), go to office hours, and work on the practice exams. Woz is really helpful in office hours and you can see that he really cares about his students.

Excellent professor, very helpful and willing to keep the student minds interested in the subject. Confusing material at times, but not too bad if you attend class and watch online lecture videos.

Comment:

Woz is the first professor in 4 years at UofI that I have felt genuinely cares about educating his students. The class was quite difficult, as was the material, but Woz is a great teacher. Make sure to go to every class, it's entertaining and you actually learn from attending.

Good prof for a good class. Don't believe rumors that he doesn't care anymore in 420. He's still the same guy as he was in 320 whether you consider that a good or bad thing.

Woz is the best. Great professor and a very nice person. His lecture videos and office hours helped alot in understanding the material. To do well in the class, make sure you do the practice exams. GE320 and GE420 were great; a little confusing but very intersting material.

Comment:

Not the best teacher. He tries to be funny but you really just want him to teach better. The class content is difficult, but all that is made up for with lax grading procedures. I'd rather have a better teacher than an easy grader.

Woz is an awesome teacher. The material is tough, but interesting. His witty humor and crazy stories makes the class fun. Do all homework, come to class, and enjoy treats courtesy of grandmapotamus.

Comment:

Tough, but fair. Most importantly, happy to spend as much time with you as it takes to make sure you understand the material. If you're willing to make the effort, he's with you the whole way. That said, you'll be spending plenty of time at office hours, because the material can be brutal at times.

Comment:

Not an easy class. Tests are hard but graded fairly with the ability to make up for previous bad tests. Not very clear on how to do hw and never uses any examples from book. Class is not that fun to take and is kind of confusing at times. Lectures are funny however because WOZ pretty much makes fun of everyone. Just respond to him in a smartallecky

Comment:

any bad words about this professor are purely BS. he gives students every opportunity to do well, his tests are relatively simple if you've done the homework, and he is one of the kindest, most helpful guys you can find. shame on any slacker that would say otherwise. and this is coming from a one.

This prof has own teaching style, quiz and test material are often not covered in class. Most learning to be done from TAs or people who have taken class b4. Prof makes you feel dumb if you ask office hour questions. Also, frequently makes racial slurs
