What do you like best about this course?:

the instructor. He spends a lot of his time making sure students understand the material. I sometime wonder how he has time to get his own work done with the amount of time he spends on the sakai chatroom answering questions.

Vidit was very helpful

Good teacher

Supplemented the lectures.

If you were teaching this course, what would you do differently?:

More yelling

Nothing

Not sure if I would.

In what ways, if any, has this course or the instructor encouraged your intellectual growth and progress?:

Shown me that work is proportional to success

None

Gave great guidance on workshops. Worked on textbook problems and helped explain them step-by-step.

Other comments or suggestions::

Vidit always seems like he wants to leave class more than we do, which is a little alarming. Otherwise, he is helpful and makes class interesting.

None

Professor Greenfield should give Vidit a retro-active grade change from a B to an A.

Vidit was an excellent teacher. He was able to answer all questions asked of him and kept the class interesting all the time, even for a class that met at 8:40am.
