The exams were hard, and I paid attention in everyone of his lectures. The homework was extremely easy and the classes were interesting. The demos were fun to watch and he is a very nice professor. The final was really hard and I feel like he did not prepare us enough for the tests that we had. |

As far as assignments, there was weekly online and book homework. Online was through mastering physics and the book homework was generally fairly easy (one to two problems per week). Exams were fairly long, sometimes needing all or more time than the 50 minutes provided, but the course is curved generously. Normally had some True/False, a question on one of the demos, a couple short problems, and 2-3 longer problems with multiple parts. The content was nothing unexpected if you paid attention in class and did the homework problems; all the problems were rearranged problems from class. Class was late (at 7pm), but he tried to fill it with demos to make it more interesting, and you could tell that he enjoyed teaching the material. |
