PHYS22 . 7 Years Ago

He explains the materials very clearly. He is funny and passionate about the subject. Overall great professor. The only problem may be that the exams were a little too simple (by the standard of typical physics exams). Some (I mean most) of the MC problems are straight from the book.

Prof. Eardley was great! His tests accurately tested the amount of knowledge the students have, rather than having really tricky and difficult problems as with previous professors. He's nice, funny, and portrays the information in an understandable and approachable way.

My professor for general relativity 40 yrs ago. His lectures back then were very entertaining and we also covered Hawking and Ellis' book on large scale structure of space time. He's the reason I became I a theoretical astrophysicist. Still have the notes from his class.

Super easy class. His jokes are funny when you're high

PHYS110B . 11 Years Ago

Very straightforward teacher. Makes the test the same difficulty as the homeworks. But the homeworks really aren't usually too bad. For an E&M class it wasn't too difficult. He lectures well, although can be a bit monotoned.

Took him for Gravity/General Relativity. Absolutely loved taking it with him. One of the few Bs I've earned since I got into upper division physics. Genius. Awesome lecturer. He's a gentle, happy old man. I only hope I can be as awesome as he is when I'm old. Probably not. SO thrilled he's teaching my quarter of 110b. I love Dougie!

cool professor who is very knowledgeable. Very experienced but you might have a hard time understanding what he writes but midterm and final was a complete joke

He'll explain everything thoroughly but it always sounds like he's talking to himself, not the class. His jokes are rare but amusing. Pretty boring lectures, right out of the book, but the explanations are decent.

Although the Homeworks for the class were way harder than the lectures or tests were, it was a different proffesor who wrote them. Super easy midterm. Easy final. Good teacher

Very nice guy. I wish multiple choice wasn't as big of a part of the test as it was. He is a little monotone. He cracks a few jokes every lecture but I think half the class was sleeping so no one ever notices. Straight forward class.

Super easy class. Most of your grade is mastering physics. The midterm was a joke, but the final proved to be pretty difficult. I think it's because no one really studied that hard for it because they figured it would be as easy as the midterm. In any case, you are a very lucky person if you get to have him for any physics class.
