Great class taught by an amazing teacher. Professor McKeegan really cares about what he teaches, and he certainly teaches it well. The class is interesting to attend and he is always open to answer any questions outside of class. Grading is determined by easy lab assignments, homework assignments that can be done with a little bit of time, and the midterm and final.

Loved this guy. His class is simple, his lectures are about as informative as the reading, and he even has a sense of humor. He's very approachable and cares about students who have questions.

As homework you basically get three handouts over the quarter that are mostly problem solving. Sometimes they're a bit challenging, but if you go to his office hours, he will explain them and in some cases do the problems with you on the board. Reading what he assigns does help for exams, and it's really not that boring (the book's tries at humor were actually amusing... at least the book for Fall08 quarter). The main key for this class is to go to his office hours and you'll be fine.

Not a bad class. Didn't really go to lecture and got an A. The discussion homework is really easy and is a big grade booster. The homework is difficult and doesn't have much to do with the rest of the class; I wouldn't have understood much of it if I hadn't gone to office hours. But the TA, Carrie, was very helpful and walked me step-by-step through each problem. For the tests, I read each chapter carefully when it was assigned and then went back through all the material the night or two before. The material was quick to read the second time through. I found highlighting and notetaking to be frivolous, but maybe that works well for others. I spent about 8 hours before the midterm and final reviewing each chapter page by page and got a 95 on the midterm and a 93 on the final.
