Very light reading for this class, the class was mostly graded on midterm (40%) and final (45%) but if you read the content and listen in section, they're not difficult. He is very passionate and will sometimes ramble in lecture but HIGHLY recommend for STEM students, he is very knowledgable about the technology described in the content.

Old guy who just isn't super exciting to listen to. This class's material was very boring and hard to sit through. Grading criteria was not clear and lectures were hard to follow. He is a super sweet guy though and cares about his students. He is always open to questions and discussions with students, just not a very captivating lecturer.

Professor Kittler's course was not what I had anticipated as it focusing mostly on machines. His lectures were confusing with very little notes and no clear grading criteria for tests or essays. There didn't seem to be any communication between him and the TA, so it was very difficult to understand some assignments.

He is a really great and interesting guy but his lectures or so dry. He will go on multiple tangents that do not relate to class material at all. But you must attend because he gives pop quizzes. The midterm and final are essays and you have one final essay that is 1800 words with multiple topics available. Its not hard if you read, but is boring.

I didn't like Kittler's lectures. They were unorganized and he was hard to understand with his accent. However, if you read the texts and understand the arguments that are spoken about in lecture you should get an easy A in the class.

He is a great professor. Knows a lot about everything. Super nice and helpful if you go to office hours. Lecture is a little boring but the readings are actually really interesting. Class is an easy A if you do the reading which is like 30 pages a week so not bad at all!
