I took Joseph a few semesters ago, dropped his class and am now retaking CS113. Just came back and wanted to say I still have a strong hatred for this man. DO NO TAKE HIM!

If you are unfortunate enough to have Joseph as a teacher, treat his class like an online class. Do not expect him to be any more help than detailing the assignments he expects from you, and even that he is unclear on. His lectures are close to unbearable, and he is rude. The zyBooks textbook helps a lot, so do the notes and homework and youre good

Guys, please, please! Do NOT take Joseph, he is literally the worst professor I have ever encountered in my college career. He assigns way too much work for a simple introductory course, and isn't even clear about which assignments are due when. Lectures are long and boring, he just reads the slides verbatim. You're better off learning on YouTube.

Nice guy. Hard tests, should be able to do well if you go over the book and supplement it with the things he goes over. Lectures are not very interesting. You will have to put in work to do well on tests. Homework might be just busy work, but some problems will be on test. Tests have only around 8 questions, know your stuff.

He has good intentions but does not meet them. The lectures are just copied from the textbook verbatim. Homework is expected to be perfectly done and it's how you learn from this class. The midterm was fairly made but poorly graded, the finals were fairly graded but heavily weighted (only <10 questions).

Cool professor and funny hes just really tough because you have to really read and study on your own. In a way he goes over it in class and its up to you to know the material at home. His homework isnt that hard just make sure you always ask what he wants. All in all good professor.

Copied his curriculum from the web. He READS it but doesn't teach it. If you ask him a question, he says: "Pay attention unless you want to repeat the course". Not supportive and tries to bend University rules to him. Doesn't post grades. Gives HW subjects before they're "taught". Assigned 2 chapters and a project both before AND after the midterm.

Doesn't have a set grading system. Has to follow the textbook way of learning so you can't learn it your own way. Reads PPT off of slides word to word based from his complicated textbook. Dismisses questions or gives a vague answer. You honestly will do better self-teaching yourself the subject from the textbook than learning from him.

Okay so he himself as a human being is not that bad, he's nice. His teaching style is the worst! He reads powerpoints for nearly 2 hours, like word for word, and not made by him. You can't take notes because he reads them so fast. Only midterm and final. Hw is a headache: notes on chapter with very picky criteria. Textbook is another pain Good luck

He is the worst professor anyone could ever have. His teaching is practically you teaching yourself. Every single class, you'll find him reading off of ppt he found online and when he teaches without them, he contradicts both the textbook and the ppt. He will never help you after class as he says "I don't do private tutoring so don't ask me".

Comment:

The homework is essentially to teach yourself using the textbook. The lectures are made more complex than they have to be with and example problems are not properly explained. He did not explain the criteria of what he expects from the class and seems to grade based on an unknown rubric. Very difficult to get answers if you don't understand.

He is the real hero of Seidenberg. I love how he walks in the room and brings in a positive vibe and energy with him. I dont know how any one can not pay attention to him when he gives his lecture with great passion while keeping them interesting. No even in my class ever uses their laptop because everyone is busy admiring this mathematical genius.

Worst professor I've ever taken. Doesn't teach anything. Midterms don't make sense, and grades it on clearly you've written your answer. Takes points away even if your answer is right because it's not written clearly. Don't take this guy

Seidenberg's worst professor! Teaches nothing about Computer Science! Very condescending and only respects you if you agree with his vague lectures. You will learn nothing and it's not his fault, even if a huge portion of the class drops out (and THEY DID!). If you take his class and suffer despite heeding this warning, you deserve it. Just saying

Just about everyone was on their laptop doing something else, and you should too because it's almost a waste of time trying to actually follow his lesson. You won't learn much, but your grade will be fine, except there's a lot of BSing involved. Preaches teamwork too much. Only teacher for the mandatory CS232 unfortunately, but avoid if you can.

No grading rubric. One of my teammate received 18 on midterm which was significantly lower than mine. His grade was only half letter grade lower than me. I asked him to show me a breakdown of my grade. He didn't show it to me, because there is none!
