HARTMAN J L
heartless prof. my best friend spent a week in the hospital and died at the end of the quarter and he refused to excuse the lecture quizzes i missed while i was in the hospital with her. also i completed the excel project due the day she was taken off life support but the autograder didnt work and he still refused help me or manually grade it
The reviews are, for once, an accurate representation of the professor. Avoid at all costs.
Lectures are pretty much useless except for the mandatory one. Professor Hartman is a lazy instructor. All the dude does in the videos is read off the slides and tries to talk slowly to pretend he is explaining it at a deeper level. At least the TA's videos are a little bit better but get ready to pretty much teach yourself the entire course.
Class isn't too difficult except for the fact that you have to teach it to yourself! Online lectures are so pointless, Hartman doesn't even teach. Final was hard. Don't skip the midterm even though it's only 10%!!
Awful professor. This class will not teach you everything. You're going to have to learn everything on your own. If you can avoid him, please do!
And if you ever take Hartman, well… Good luck Charlie
Get ready to learn everything on your own; I bought the smart work practice questions. That being said, it is just statistics...nothing more and nothing less.
Econ 5, Hartman only appeared in online videos, but oml, I cannot stand the guy. He reads off slides word for word and switches up his tone of voice so that it sounds like he is adding remotely anything of value, while sounding condescending and unintelligent. He sticks his tongue out every 2 seconds. I could go forever but there is a char limit...
Genuinely worst professor I've ever had and I'm writing this with an A in the class. All he does is post lecture videos of himself reading slides. He doesn't teach. Besides for his review lectures which aren't frequent where he is still terrible at explaining anything. He should be getting paid as a TA for the amount of work he puts into our class.
It's John Hartman.
It's Hartman.
One of the worst professors I have ever had. I took AP Stats in high school and the way he explains topics makes even the most simplistic ones confusing. I had him for section, and he constantly spoke down to students, belittling and discouraging them. Teaching yourself the material and doing the practice tests is the best way to do well.
