Reviews of professor Kenneth Gayley

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Kenneth Gayley defined a generation at the university of Iowa. I was a freshman when I took his class and it was his first time teaching 1611. I wrote a four paragraph email to the department chair at the end of my semester. There's no way to accurately describe the horridness of this class in so few characters.

Exams very overly conceptual, made no sense, and had no connection with homework and labs. Exam averages were around 50%.

He's a very nice and understanding person but, god, he cannot teach. During lecture he'd derive equations from formulas which, because it was an intro course with mostly freshmen, we obviously hadn't learned previously and, thus, didn't understand. He would also go on tangents that would make it hard pick apart what info would be on the tests.
