Reviews of professor Harry Payne

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Payne is a nice person. As a professor though, it doesn't get much worse. In lecture he just reads the slides, word for word. The slides are from Cengage - the entire course is just Cengage. You do all assignments there and he just checks it off. Not an environment designed for learning anything. One of the most bizarre college courses I've taken.

He should not be teaching, just plain and simple. Every student in my class was aware of the elephant in the room which was how little effort he gave and how little he actually understood the course material. I hope you dont have to take his class and I hope he gets replaced at MCC because it would improve the Computer Science department.

Took an in person class, but aside from the final project, it was all just a course on Cengage. Before this, I've never gotten an A in a class where I felt like I didn't learn anything. Lectures are mostly just reading the Cengage slides word for word. Professor Payne is funny and clearly very knowledgeable and experienced, but not a great teacher.
