Comment:

First thought when I saw him walk into the classroom: "Please don't die in the middle of the semester!" Not that I'm saying age is a bad thing but this professor is older and hard of hearing. Tests don't match content taught in class. Best of luck if you take Cooper! You're gonna need it! One positive, he allows old editions of the textbook.

The professor once yelled at someone in class for asking a question as though they were challenging his knowledge on the subject even though the student was very respectful and the professor had been confusing in his lecture. Cooper's tests are about 20+ yrs dated, his lecture content is 10+ yrs. Overall, learned little. Glad the class is done.

Its hard to follow his lectures. Hes hard of hearing & gets upset if he ask questions. The only way I passed was because all of his exams are on the koofer website. He allows you to have a formula sheet on all the exams, but he never checks to see what you actually have written on the sheet. Majority of the class cheated on all the exams. No HW

Comment:

Honestly, Dr. Cooper is just too old, he spends almost all of class sitting at the podium and rambling on for 75 minutes. His tests probably haven't been updated in 15 years which is why often they contain questions that relate to nothing from lectures, powerpoints, or the Textbook. Honestly doesn't really seem to care at all.

If you can take a different professor at a different time do so. Otherwise you'll be teaching yourself. None of his lectures help with the exams, which are the only grade in the class. He expects you to read the chapters 3 times each before the exam and make you put his class ahead of all your others. It's possible to pass, just not likely.

Terrible teacher. Lectures are incredibly long and boring. Nobody pays attention to him at all. Attendance is for extra credit. The tests are unbelievably hard and have nothing to do with his lectures. He just really wants you to read the book. On exam review days he just reads the book to you. He can't hear well so you can't ask questions.

WORST CLASS EVER. He is very nice, but the lectures are SO long and no one pays attention in the class. The tests are BEYOND hard. There's a disconnect sometimes between what's in the book and what he teaches. The chapters are long, but anything in them is fair game. "Extra credit" for attending class, not mandatory though.

BORING! Most people are on their laptops or their phones and never pay attention to him. He is super boring. Just read the book and pay attention in class as much as you can and study the book etc. He takes attendance so if you miss a lot of class you will do bad in his class. Take someone else if you can.

Lectures are terrible. I am generally very into class and love learning, but he makes it impossible. Tells class at the beginning of the semester not to ask questions because he cant hear with his hearing aids, and to come to office hours to ask questions. Tests are incredibly hard. You will learn next to nothing, but will pass if you read.

Honestly, one of the most horrible teachers to learn from. Amazing person, but I feel bad for him when he's teaching/lecturing and NO ONE is listening. The most monotonous voice possible, and the tests are very different from what he talks about. He takes attendance. Tests are unbelievably hard. But 3 out of 5 tests were on koofers as a reference.

Class is boring, makes you want to fall asleep. The exams don't really line up with the lectures or powerpoints. Apparently you need to just read the book.

Professor Cooper is boring, his lectures are straight from the textbook and expects you to read it multiple times and to put his class before any of your other ones. I went to get help and he made everything worse. Avoid him if possible.

This class is hard. If you have questions just look in the book. He is going to direct you there any way. I would suggest reading the book and outlining it. All of his test come from the book databank and not necessarily from the lectures. He does curve which saved the whole class.

Run away! Terrible! He is ancient and doesn't care anymore. 5 tests (only grades) from test bank. Lectures have nothing to do with test. Read your book and practice using online quizzes.

He is terrible! Run away! 5 tests are the only grades. Tests come from the test bank, not from him. Attendance is mandatory. If you absolutely must take him, go to class and just read your text. His lectures have almost nothing to do with the exam. Do the online quizzes that come from the book.

The professor is a nice guy, but no one really pays him any attention. Attendance is mandatory, but you won't learn much in class. Very boring material. The exams are challenging, but with the grades being curved to an average of 80, it isn't too bad.

He is a terrible professor. Attendance is mandatory, but his exams (which are the only grade) don't relate to his lectures so there is little point in going. Study the book to learn the material, but if you can avoid taking his section, you'll be better off.

attendance is mandatory, but going is pointless. everything you need to know is in the book. SUPER boring. curves the test average to 80, so its possible to get over 100 on any test so the class is relatively easy.
