Dr. Farman was a great professor. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a love for what he does. He is really sweet and was always willing to help, he was also super helpful and would answer any questions I had. For a bit of a boring class, he had the ability to make it interesting and I always looked forward to going to lecture. |

Easy gen ed class, honestly. The only time-consuming projects are probably the poster and the podcast, but they're easy. There is no final but a midterm, but he goes over the topics in class, plus it was super easy if you paid a little attention in class and read some of the readings. He has these weekly observations that are quite annoying but help us understand the topics. Overall easy elective |

Prof. Farman wants to individually connect with all of his students. He is reasonable, fair, and easy to talk to. He gives engaging, thought-provoking lectures that make the time fly by. Be prepared to read! While the course doesn't explore topics in depth, it covers a wide range of topics. I strongly recommend taking Prof. Farman's class. |

He does a good job with teaching us to focus on "philosophical" discussions and encourages conversations in class. Slow grader, but it's not too big of a deal. Personally, I'm not a fan of his big class discussions, but I can appreciate what he's teaching us. He is pretty good with responding to emails, but I know some people disagree. |

Very energetic and enthusiastic. Very well read (has even written a book or two himself). He is always open to discussing class topics further after class or in office hours, or discussing how everyday events and design parallel the course material. The one caveat is he does not always respond to emails quickly and is usually slow on grading. |

Great professor, very well-spoken, knowledgeable, and passionate about the subject matter. Fun, informative class on design and current issues concerning design, cultures, and creativity. Sometimes writing rubrics were unclear on how much elaboration on a particular piece of criteria was necessary to achieve full marks. |

Dr. Farman is a good and pretty engaging lecturer, and had some interesting and occasionally profound things to say every class. The course load (especially the readings) for HDCC209B was greater than I expected, but not completely unmanageable. He's a nice guy who encourages conversation in class as opposed to talking at his students, but unfortunately he suffers the common humanities shortcoming of having nebulous expectations on assignments, which can lead to some disappointments when it comes to grading. |

Dr. Farman is a great professor! Lectures were extremely interesting and engaging, and I can definitely say I've come out of this class learning a lot and with a new perspective on how mobile devices influence our lives. There were iPad "quizzes" every lecture, but they were easy if you did the weekly assigned reading, which was reasonable, and overall, the course load was manageable. We did many fun activities like going out geocaching, and creating our own mobile media narratives. Definitely take a class with Dr. Farman if you have a chance! |
