Pros: Releases notes of his lectures and underlines important parts. Cheat sheets on the midterm and the final. 2 short take home quizzes each week, could take multiple times until we got 100%. Cons: The labs are graded hard for no reason, practically had to beg TA's to help us. A lot of information and memorization especially on the final.

professor provided notes after each lecture. mandatory sections (with worksheets) but they were fun and simple. final and midterm were harder than expected, but he allows cheat sheets

He is very devoted and great at lecturing, not really any hard outside assignments just really work hard on the labs because they are a big portion of your grade. The tests were a bit more difficult than I thought, but you get cheat sheets so it is definitely manageable.

Took as a GE and obviously passionate about his field. Did much better on final than midterm that he rounded my grade. Weekly section mandatory as worksheets due at the end but my TA was chill and easy to ask questions to. Not much to memorize but understand general concepts and use of cheat sheets on midterm and final (don't negate studying tho!)

He seems nice and makes things interesting however if you're not into the subject it gets boring. You don't rlly have to attend lectures but definitely section. Midterm was rlly difficult most failed it however depending on final he'll bring scores up. As long as you do weekly section work you can pass the class.

He's a really good lecturer and just a really entertaining guy. The class is super boring tho, the exams were difficult and in-person.

Prof Moore was an amazing professor. You can tell he really cares about his students and his subject. Really interesting class, but beware, the tests are difficult. You are allowed a one-page cheat sheet, but don't rely on it!! Otherwise, labs have a worksheet due at the end of each class. Overall I recommend this class!

Professor Moore was very kind and you can tell he really cares about what he is teaching. the class wasn't as dinosaury as i thought it would be and the exams were reallyyy hard. make sure you show up and do the labs

My TA (Zach) kinda sucked- worksheet every week (due end of class) lowered my grade. John is chill, class is interesting. Quiz was hard IT IS NOT OPEN NOTE OR ONLINE ANYMORE everyone I know got around a 65-70 and it is worth a good chunk of ur grade. Final improves grade if u study hard. Good luck

SUCH an easy class and lowkey a fun one too. Took it as a GE and the only thing you really have to show up to is the section, which lowkey is a lot because you have to do a worksheet each section and turn it in at the end of section. Good class for a GE requirement tho

professor is very nice, insightful, and passionate about what he's teaching. Both the midterm and the final were online which is very convenient. They weren't easy but as long as you go to class and take notes on what he's saying (not just the slides) you should do well. Labs were long but easy and had info that were on the tests. Overall, great!
