Geb is a gem. However, if you get a bad group, you are so screwed. If your group members suck, reach out to Geb and see if he can do anything. The tests and quizzes were easy, but the TA's could be a little harsh when grading projects.

Great Class! Those who were good in EPS2 (engineering computing) tend to pick up the material more quickly but, he is always available in office hours and wants to help! quizzes and tests questions come directly from practice quizzes, lecture slides and readings. Get started on group work early!

My fave course! Geb clearly knows a lot about the subjects he teaches. The grading criteria is clear. This course is heavily dependent on group projects. Get a head start on your project because it creeps up on you! All quizzes are directly from his lectures and essays, which he posts online. All test questions are previous quiz questions.

Comment:
Seriously nice guy and loved to have him as a teacher and a counselor. He is a hilarious guy and means really well. He can go on tangents but they are usually helpful. would recommend for this class to do a quality job on your final group project starting from the beginning of the semester because it is a really long one and sneaks up on you

Comment:
Lectures are boring and essays are just as boring but prepare you very well for all the material you will be graded on. Very easy exams! Most questions are word for word copied from the in-class and practice quizzes so use those to study! Only thing I hated was that he assigned a project the last day of class due during finals week.

Comment:
Moderate level of work - weekly reading quizzes, occasional hw, and a fairly large but not overly difficult project. Lectures are poorly structured and are either from a couple years ago or not put together in the first place. Not the most organized teacher and I don't learn much in lecture, but nice guy and descent grader.

Geb is one of the funniest people I know. I stay at school late so I can go to his lecture rather than the other profs.

Classes are fun. Geb is easy to work with. I wish I would have had him for EPSII, would have been 10x better. Take every class you can with Geb and enjoy a break from the typical lackluster profs.

Comment:
lectures are good. homework is bad. Basically the class has no interest from the students, TAs, or professors (except Geb a little). Basically, don't get to fed up with this class, it's just used to hinder your other, more important classes. High time demands, but find good sources so you don't constantly spend every waking moment on hmwk.

I'd say this guy is the best EPS 2 teacher availible. His lectures are not nearly as boring as the others and he tries to make class fun. He makes jokes all the time (sometimes theyre kinda nerdy but look at the crowd) and he explains the powerpoints instead of just reading off them.
