Matthew Patrick INST326 Anonymous 02/16/2024	Reviews don't accurately represent this course in my opinion. The concepts were understandable with a little bit of effort on the student's part. He held live sessions to answer questions and explain concepts and even gave us a pass on some of the quizzes where we would get free points. I enjoyed it. Just wish there were recorded lectures for students to view.

Matthew Patrick INST326 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/23/2023	Instructor didn’t teach a thing. He puts out power point slides every week, additional reading materials, and gives assignments. The TAs grade the assignments. There is also a final project that I spent weeks on, just to have it not graded. The professor didn’t communicate that either, he just submitted final grades without even touching our final projects. I wasted so much time on it. I don’t know what he does, but he sure does not lift a finger to be a part of this class.

Matthew Patrick INST314 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 02/25/2023	he gave us example code for each lab which had the exact code we needed for the labs. so it was really easy, but i learned nothing.
Matthew Patrick INST314 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/25/2022	Mainly gave lab based assignments until the midterm which was lecture heavy. Lecture slides lacked context and explanation.
Matthew Patrick INST326 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/05/2022	not sure why there's the hate in the some of these reviews... professor was very clear that the course was going to be asynchronous from the beginning. and whenever i did go to lecture he was really helpful and nice. i didn't have to waste time going to lectures and labs for stuff i already knew or could easily google which saved me so much time. there were other in-person sections for 326 too, feel like some people would've just had a better experience there. honestly this was one of the best classes i've taken, but to each their own ig
Matthew Patrick INST326 Expecting a C+ Anonymous 11/22/2022	Do not recommend this professor. Nice guy, but class relies entirely on reading slides, the textbook, and an optional lecture every 2 weeks. If you are not confident in your Python skills this is not the professor to take, you will likely fail. I have learned nothing from the course material and have to rely on google for learning. Office hours are constantly swamped. TA's are not helpful I have gotten responses such as "this is a simple concept to understand, re -read the question" downright degrading and unmotivating.
Matthew Patrick INST326 Expecting a C Anonymous 10/31/2022	I do not recommend taking this professor as he uses previous course materials and expects you to work on assignments on things that have not even been taught yet.
Matthew Patrick INST311 Expecting a C Anonymous 07/02/2022	DO NOT TAKE INST 311 WITH HIM! I literally almost failed my class and he never responds to any emails or gives any reasoning for a grade deduction.
