The course objective report is displayed in with the lecture section designated by section A, B or C. If the course had a lecture/recitation format and this report does not have numeric results for course objectives, they can be found on the web at http://eval.coe.drexel.edu under the lecture section.

He knows the material inside and out. He talked down to the students at times making them feel stupid.

Prof Oh, was an excellent professor that truely had a passion for the subject being taught. No real weaknesses

 

General Comments / Suggestions
1

Without collaboration, some are the homeworks are difficult to do. I would recommend encouraging students to collaborate and work together on homeworks to figure out the problems. I would add a few more problems to ensure everyone does a small piece of the homework.

2

Can_t think of anything, I liked it and thought it was perfect as it is

3

none.
