Dear professor Higgins is one of the best professors I ever met in my life. There are pop quizzes in each class, you have to go through the slides and the textbook so that you can earn grades from the quiz. The final project requires some time, and it is very helpful. Highly recommended!!!

Professor Higgins is the best professor I have ever met. She is really nice since she will give very detailed feedback for every work you've done. Even they are just some simple calculations.

There are quizs in each class, you have to go through the class so that you can earn grades from the quiz. Also, lots work for Final, but you will get a Good grade if you pay more.

Higgins is a very nice lady. She always asks about how she can improve. Class was fairly easy to follow. Online quizzes for homework allow for 2 attempts. Hated the PollEverywhere at the end each class (can be stressful). Easy projects if you meet with her to review. Final was a bit tough, but not worth much. She is not the greatest with technology

Comment:

Lectures are boring and sometimes confusing but there are some good group activities that happen in class which help teach the subject material. Office hours are super helpful for checking your projects over with her before submission. You can almost guarantee 100% on your projects as long as you review them with her a few times.

The course is easy if you do the homework and the UBuild project. She collects homework, but if it is wrong, you can resubmit it. Is extremely helpful at office hours and manages to convey the material really clear. Overall, a great teacher.

Attentive professor that focus on learning and not grades. Workload is a bit heavy, but definitely not hard at all. She allows for re-dos and has tons of office hours. If you study just a bit you should be fine with an A.

Relies too heavily on slides that she doesn't put on-line. Tests come straight from the homework. Once you get over her "$100 Million" house that she loves to talk about, she doesn't really have any real life experience integration which doesn't help if you're a very logical thinker.

While she is not the best professor she teaches u everything u need to know for the tests. The tests are online and r open book open notes. Quizzes are online and exam questions come straight from the homework. Do the homework and go to class and you will have a guaranteed A

Very difficult to understand (language barrier). Seems to know subject well, but completely incapable of passing knowledge on. Class is centered on PowerPoints and online tests and homework, none of which help to learn the material. Wastes a lot of paper; slides not available online. Expects us to know analytical details without guidance.

Horrible teaching, irrational method of grading, homework "does not reflect an individuals progress in the class" or help with studying for the exams, does not help with student's understanding of the material
