Should have read these reviews before I signed up for this class.. spot on. Talks about himself and his business ventures every lecture instead of covering material, have to teach yourself. Extremely vague instructions & inconsistent due dates. Set up for failure with papers and quizzes due on the same day!

I was super sick this semester and Professor Adams was super caring and understanding of my health conditions. He is amazing and I actually looked forward to his class because it was so much fun. We got to 3D print, and build drones and do cool stuff. Everything we did was in group projects and it was such an easy A def recommend this class. 10/10

Comment:
Professor is smart and knows what he's talking about, but gives shaky instruction. Also, he assigns mountains of reading from books you download from his website and other web based books, etc. Lectures in class only loosely connect to the books but you have to know it all. Lots of paper writing (1200 words/week) and long, difficult tests.

He's a very nice guy, although, like everyone else said, its unclear what he wants and he talks a lot about his business. Very easy class though, as he is a very easy grader. We finished all of our projects 30 minutes before and were on our laptops the whole time and we still got that A+. I'd take him again just for the grade.

Comment:
Many group projects. Very intelligent and kind guy, but he isn't very good at interpreting what he exactly wants done. He'll tell one group what to do, but won't tell the whole class. You have to show up everyday or else you'll really have no clue what's going on. It's not hard material at all, but a lot of downloading things on your computer.

Comment:
He's a smart guy and knows his stuff, but his class is completely unclear. He talks about himself and his own business ventures every lecture instead of covering material, so when the test comes you have to teach yourself. There's some good stuff, but beware of extremely vague instructions & walking into class never knowing whats going on/whats due

Not a bad professor to take, but no one in the class ever knew what assignments were due or when they were due. The class isn't too hard, but you do have to endure story after story of Adam's success in the business world.

Comment:
He is unclear, often confused,and teaching seems to be an after thought for him. I often felt in order to complete the assignments I had to teach myself the material because he did such a poor job of teaching the class. We (the class) spent a lot of time guessing what was expected of us. I'm not sure teaching is his forte.

This teacher is pretty easy. The assignments are easy, but he's sometimes unclear of what he wants and doesn't explain stuff ahead of time. Powerpoints are kept on the course drive, not posted online. He's not that entertaining either, but overall okay. Easy A class.

He knows his stuff, he is just extremely boring in class. He is very helpful and is willing to do whatever he can to help you! Also, ask for examples to understand assignments.
