Comment:
His lectures lacked clarity and he made the exam ridiculously easy to let student pass the course. Three lectures were canceled because he didn't show up. I don't think he really cares much about teaching.

Comment:
In lecture he essentially just reads the notes and scribbles stuff down on his tablet. He really doesn't explain things very well and it's really hard to focus the way he goes about his lectures. After a few lectures attendance was at around 20%. He sometimes cracks jokes and asks if people are following (they aren't).

Comment:
OK prof. Teaches using his course notes and his tablet computer. Does lots of relevant examples. Not very enthusiastic about teaching the course but he explains well. Constantly asks students if they understand and whether he should re-explain. Midterm is easy and expected difficulty of the final is supposed to be the same.

Comment:
I do not doubt this professor's greatness, but with the offering of ECE316 - Probability Theory and Random Processes that I am currently taking, he has decided to use a tablet to convey his lectures. This is becoming awfully difficult to learn from if there is ever a need for further explanation from his existing notes. Please lose the tablet.

Great prof. Tries his best to keep the class alert. Takes the time to re-explain material if needed. The material is somewhat difficult, but with enough practice, it ends up being pretty simple in the end.

Comment:
This Professor is not arrogant in anyway, he is a great man who I have had the pleasure of learning from. He always keeps class interesting, and fun. The only thing he could do to be better would be to work out more examples in class, but I understand that this can be quite difficult in a lecture setting.

A really nice man, but completely disorganized. He has trouble explaining key ideas well and often leaves you confused.
