He helps you a lot if you just go to his office hours. Really good professor. Don't fall behind or it will be difficult to catch up. His exams are very fair but he is a tough grader. Have fun!

Comment:
Prof Maciel is an excellent professor!! He does prepare for the class and his notes/exercises/assignments are very helpful learning materials. He always encourages students to ask questions. The lectures are well structured. Btw, he really cares about his students. He is always available during his office hours.

Alexis is a really great professor. His lectures are very well structured and he delivers them very confidently. He understands questions well and responds to them. He's available in office hours frequently and takes the time to help you understand the material. The grading is very fair and he warns exactly what will be on the exams.

Comment:
This man is a godsend. Anyone who says otherwise is either blaming him for their lack of work ethic or truly doesn't belong in the field. He explains everything from the ground up so logically, holds insane amounts of office hours (extended them to 8 hours per day in his office in fall) and loves what he does.

Comment:
He's such a nice guy, but I don't like him as a professor. He's difficult to understand in class. Office hours are frustrating because he talks too much and doesn't make sense. Exams are hard, and he doesn't let CS142 use notes in exams like many CS courses, which is unfair; in real-life programming situations, you have access to all kinds of help.

Comment:
Superb professor, knows his stuff without any text or reference, writes all of his own notes, and genuinely cares about the students. He is my adviser and knows EVERYTHING about the department and what courses I should take. I'm a double major and studying abroad (with a SE minor) and he could not be more helpful. Take anything Maciel teaches.

Definitely best CS professor at clarkson. He puts motivation and passion into his students with his passion for the subject. He explains things very well and is definitely the best 1 on 1 professor. Ignore the negative posts... compared to the other professors, he is the best by far!

Comment:
Easily one of the best profs on campus. Knows the material very well, and is excited to be teaching it. Cares strongly about his students and is incredibly helpful during office hours, even staying late to help his students. He does expect a lot of his students though. If you put in the effort to learn the material you will do fine and learn a ton.

Great during class, disgraceful outside. Frequently late, homeworks are never handed back in less than a month and office hours provide no real help. Clearly a research prof. Avoid if possible

A skilled professor. Very organized. Provides his own notes so buying a textbook is not necessary.

Pretty strict grader (answer has to be exactly right) for tests, but almost all of the answers are in the notes.

He seems to know his stuff, while the class is really easy (I'm in the fall section), he goes through everything. The downsid is that he does talk a lot about the same stuff, getting a little repetitive. Not bad overall.
