Excellent professor. The subject matter is a little difficult at times, but she is more than willing to help you outside of class and explain concepts in a way that makes sense

Lots of homework in this class with 2 sets a week, but the expectations in this class are very fair. Dr. Chattin explains content very clearly for exams and quizzes. I definitely had to work for this class, but make a good cheat sheet with lots of examples and definitions for the probability distribution, and you're golden.

Chattin was amazing. She teaches thoroughly, as well as how to do much of the work through your calculator. Quizzes and exams are exactly what's on the homework. For the online sync style, all the lectures are available from the beginning. There's only 2 exams, an easy project, and the final. Class content isn't too hard as well.

Comment:

I fretted this class, and it turned out to be an intense but not bad experience. It will take time between classes, homework and quiz prep. You will also learn a lot if you follow the Professors suggested outline. The exams focuses on fundamentals, but that doesn't mean they are easy. No extra credit.

She grades fairly hard, but there's lots of high point assignments, so if you miss a few, it won't affect you too bad. Really solid introduction into Ira Fulton. I've heard only good things about her other classes.

I think she has a real passion for the subject. I spoken to her in office hours and she is really caring. The class is heavy and I really recommend to follow the weekly plan she has laid out in canvas. Follow that plan and you will be set for the class.

Comment:

COVID lectures were pre-recorded lectures from her which are good. Goes over questions and homework during the actual class that happens once every other week. Homework, quizzes, and practice exams are well-reflected in exams. Content can pile up pretty quickly and requires a good amount of time commitment.

Comment:

All I'll say is do not take this class if you're taking it during the COVID-19 pandemic. I'm not sure how Prof. Chattin was before having to move to online, but she's gotten incredibly careless, sloppy, and lazy since then. We don't have real lectures but rather watch her YouTube material from 2 years ago on our own time, and she hardly tries.

Great professor, with lots of experience with the material. Quizzes go over material presented, and exams are fair. There are practice exams to let you see where to improve.

I am a full-time student but took this class online due to the pandemic. The course was very organized and deadlines were clear and well laid out. The class took a LOT of my time but I worked hard in this class and got an A. Her email response time was very fast. I think she does a good job "teaching" online.

She is super accommodating and will go out of her way for any student. She teaches in a way that makes the material easy to understand. I feel like I learned a lot from this class because of her.

She did not seem to actually understand the material. She just reads off her slides and wants you to memorize how to do everything on the calculator. Basically a TI-84 class.

Comment:

I had Chattin for her IEE380 class and was at first intimidated by the surrounding talk that IEE380 is a notoriously hard class that is difficult to pass. However, if you're willing to put in the work, I believe her tests are very fair and there aren't any curveballs as long as you understand what you are doing, and not just plugging in numbers.

Comment:

Chattin uses unconventional methods of teaching that make simple things extremely difficult and complex. She teaches like she assumes you've already read the lecture slides. She is also not understanding of personal circumstances and is pretty condescending sometimes. I wouldn't take her again. Take Clough instead.

Dr. Chattin is great and really cares about her students. The class is heavy but her grading criteria are very clear and the material is dense enough that if you do what you are supposed to you will be fine. I would totally recommend.

Comment:

I had Prof. Chattin for IEE380 and IEE385. I thought the class was pretty straight forward as she is clear in class what will be on the tests. Quizzes were in class and were fairly easy as long as you take the time to create a cheat sheet (allows one). Allows multiple cheat sheets on exams. Homework was more heavy the first half of course.

Comment:

Overall a very organized and cool professor. HW 2x a week and a quiz based on what we did in class. I've taken stats before and this class was even harder for some reason. Lots of conceptual questions on exams that throw you off. Calculations are straightfoward but can get tricky. One group project that was easy and pretty quick. Reasonable grading
