This is an evaluation for Astro 3. During lecture, he seems like a funny guy with a really entertaining voice. He cracked me up, but that's basically all he did. As amusing as his expressions and fluctuations in his voice were, I fell asleep in all his lectures and ended up going to around 4 of them. I didn't watch the podcasts either. READ THE BOOK. that's where I received all my info, and I received a solid A for the midterms. oh, and do masteringastromony, and do it right. Study it before each test as well, because for the first midterm, he takes so many from the homework assignments. What's nice is that he posts practice exams as well, and you should do those, because similar questions show up on the exams. The exams consist of around 50 questions and 3 free response (which are very easy). I don't remember the final though. Honestly, I did extremely well on the 2 midterms and for some strange reason, the strategy didn't work for the final. I didn't do so hot, and it dragged my grade to an A-. I'm not sure how to help you with that one. SO FOR MIDTERM EXAMS: read the book, study the homework, and do practice exams he posts up. And I believe there are a few previous midterms at SAC, so take advantage of that too. The labs were pretty interestng, but if you don't finish in class, you're screwed. You can't take it home to work on, so don't slack off. Overall, i LOVED astronomy and studying for the class gave me so much information. But notice, studying from the class was what gave me info, NOT the professor. And on a random note, when you see him face to face, he's slightly intimidating as well.
