Comment:
Oh my god! This professor has many titles - The King Of The Boredom, The Master Of The Sleepiness, The Guru Of The Hypnosis, etc... I can bet a few hundred dollars that you will stop attending his lectures after the first week of 4 hours of excruciating apathy and lethargy.

Good professor. 1 group project for entire course. Basically all documentation (implementation optional). Midterm/final based off of lectures and book. If you want an A reading the book is needed. Do all the group work and you will be fine. Attendance isn't mandatory. Overall, great professor for this type of topic.

Choose your team wisely. Pretty much get to pick your own team project. Quizzes are weekly and if you want to do well reading the book is needed but not required to pass. Midterm and final is based on quizzes and documentation. Overall, good professor.

Great guy, very informative and helpful with the material. The course itself is structured like Comp 380, only you get to choose your own project. This class is a great opportunity to create a semester project that you can put on your resume, so make sure to pick one you really want to do.

DO NOT TAKE him if you want to learn.. 9 out of 10 students fall asleep.. not helpful and seems confusing in his own lecture. In case if you do take him, try commenting your project alot and garuntee you will pass NOT WORTH IT!!!

Comment:
He shouldn't be teaching ethics. He makes an interesting topic dry, simply addressing the obvious pros/cons of basic issues. rs361 students will be disappointed with cs450. Basic concepts behind ethical decision making aren't presented. Appalling scores on NDY paper; vague expectations; silly reasons for low grades. Prepare to challenge your score!

Very helpful, and makes the subject matter as entertaining as possible. Easy class that makes you think a little, and gives you a chance to explore your field of choice through the course term paper. Reccomended.

He's very nice and helpful. Materials are very easy. He can be boring but I'm OK with it; it's not his job to entertain me.

He seems boring because it's a boring subject... However, actual participation in the team projects will teach you to embrace the power, simplicity, & efficiency that such a boring subject has to offer. BTW, He is a very clear lecturer and a nice guy.

He is so boring. Oh god he is boring. Wow i thought I might die of boredom. Yeah not to mention he is really really boring. I was in a state of complete boredom throughout his class. Take this class if you have trouble sleeping and need help.
