Covers lots of material, but you don't have to concentrate on everything. Two very easy online quizzes. Very easy final too. Programming assignments are average and are designed to understand the material covered in lectures.

Comment:
Wilkinson is not a good professor.He 'teaches' the course material, which is already dry, using powerpoints.The class is extremely boring.His tests are mostly definition questions which he marks wrong if they aren't worded how he likes.He smiled when he told the class the average test scores which were 55 and 60.He doesn't want students to do well.

Comment:
Confused by the other reviewers as he has to be one of the most polite and nice professors in the CS department. Tests are a little tough and assignments might be for bad programmers but you shouldn't be in CS if you aren't a decent coder! He repeats himself a lot and can be boring but overall an interesting class. Would take a class with him again

Comment:
Sadly this turned out to be a completely useless course. The assignments were very easy, most will get through with an A. However, the assignments are step by step and you really don't learn anything. He is also useless when asking questions, and can be downright rude just because you need help.

Comment:
Great teacher. Takes the hard path, does everything himself before setting up assignments. He is lenient on grades. Responds to mail almost immediately. Took Parallel Computing and Grid Computing. Lots of hands-on. He teaches stuff that can be implemented, not something too abstract. He speaks Queens English.

Comment:
He's a good teacher. He likes to stop and admire his slides. Tests are easy if you try the old tests and he is very lenient on grade tests. If you show you are trying in the class he will grade lighter on projects.

Comment:
One of the worst teachers I have had at UNCC. He sniffs after every sentence. Drives me nuts. Hard to stay awake in class. Makes the material harder than it has to be. Definitely not a Dr. Allen.

Very easy, very boring. Two assignments and 3 online tests. Some test questions are tricky! Exempt from the final if your happy with your grade.

Grid Computing has been one of the most interesting classes I have taken here at UNC Charlotte. Dr. Wilkinson is knowledgable about the field and is willing to work with his students to help them do well. He cares about his students and has an excellent TA that supports him in this course.

This is the most worthless class I ever took as an undergrad, messed up my grade but wouldnt change it cause it was posted and too much work for him. Makes you memorize rather than learn stuff, so you cant apply any info from the class to anything else.
