    Good prof allows chatGPT. A lot of freedom in homework and attendance. Grade generously.

    Dr. Frank is a great prof. He really cares about his students and the class. A great thing is that he is not a very tough grader, so you don't need to feel much pressure in his class. Do the work (very manageable load) come to class and participate and I'm sure you'll get a very good grade. Only negative is that his feedback doesn't cut too deep.

    Dr. Frank is absolutely the best professor/instructor I've ever met at UCSB. The class is fun and includes lots of interesting assignments and projects. Would take it again for sure. Highly recommended.

    Dr. Frank is great! Classes are generally PowerPoints that he lectures over; all of the slides were available online and understandable without being in the lecture-- although those were graded for attendance. Dr. Frank is quite lenient on deadlines and grades generously. The class relies on an online textbook (~$25) but it's pretty clear & useful.
