Comment:
This professor is unfair. Not a real professor. He played the system. He is the worst because he actively uses grades to punish students who disagree with his agenda, not on the basis of their arguments or quality of writing. He is an opportunist. He is on a power trip, loves the sound of his own voice and is a narcissist. He lacks integrity.

Comment:
This instructor's class was one big infomercial for his classroom managment approach - which only can be applied properly if there is buy-in from the entire school and administration. When asked if we could learn other approaches as well, we were told that his was the only one that worked. Arrogant! Sadly, a real waste of time!

Comment:
Horrible, horrible professor. Teaches nothing but "DCM" (his own theory) and preaches its 90% success rate yet provides no valid examples in an I/S setting. Extremely arrogant and narrow minded; needs to teach more than one method of managing a classroom. Perfect example of preaching how to manage a high school class without ever being in one. Bad.

Comment:
Dr. Edmunds is among one of the finest that the faculty has in terms of professionalism and teaching style. Yes, he has a lot of experience and may at first seem arrogant, but he's not. Almost all of my classmates love him because the content that he has developed in his course are applicable and he is true to his word.

Comment:
Positively frustrating. I would like to see more data to support his theories before "buying in". Perhaps more focus on behavioural techniques that apply to intermediate/senior students instead of K-8 would be helpful, considering it is a class required for all Faculty of Education students.

For someone with very little teaching experience, he sure tells us how we need to go about it. The ironic part is that even he doesn't follow his own advice.

Do you want to listen to a prof tell you how great he is...then take his class....cause that's all you'll hear....and then for the second half of the course, switch to another teacher and all will be better!!
