Comment:
It's so interesting the contrasting opinions. I personally thought he was a moron and thought he rambled on like a mental patient. Half the time he was so out of it, I thought he took a bunch of Valium before he came to class. Fortunately, I took the real estate process with someone else. For those of you who thought he was great. Really???

Thank you Rod for the wonderful information you transmitted to me via your many networks. I really enjoyed when you had the Mayor come in to speak with us. Although the one when we were in Madison Gas and Electric was intreging and stimulating. Oh, but don't forget when our Class went to Chicago for that Green Tie Dinner. What about that time w

Rod's course in Green Real Estate was beyond compare. In other words, Prof. Matthew's lecture was like no other lecture I have taken. Rod cannot be given enough thanks for all the ideas and inspiration he created in me and his numerous students.

Rod's known as "Hot Rod!" The Rod that the Badgers know at UW is one of the most dedicated, innovative, and strategic teacher. Given his theoretical background and professional experience he is the best at what he does and he always will be. There is no one out there that will ever surpass Rod in teaching ability; he's a teachers' teacher. CFRV

He said "by and large" more times than I could count throughout one lecture. I almost died of boredom.

Comment:
Prof. Matthews certainly is a nice person, but the problem is he could not teach properly. He is very organized and it is extremely hard to stay awake during his lecture. Fortunately, Sharon has taken over the teaching job for RE 306. Take it with her as she is a really good instructor.

Class topic is somewhat interesting. Second exam is much harder than the first. Exam questions are specific and directly from the lecture notes- be sure to print out the power point presentations before class. Overall an easy/interesting class.

Tests are straight from lecture notes--go to class though, it makes it a lot easier come test time. Final is cumulative, some questions on old material I felt were too specific. Each test has "math" section, can be difficult-TA's will help you though. Very interesting topics, but boring style.

Rod knows his stuff but at times can get a little boring. A great teacher to have that has actually done things in the real world.
