Reviews of professor Heidi Tessmer

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Would NOT recommend taking her classes. Lectures are all off slides and she does a very poor job of teaching an intro CS course. Will take off many points on homework assignments even when the code runs correctly just because its not written exactly the way she wants it. Dont take her if there is another professor teaching the same class.

Her lectures are all power points, but she doesn't really tell you how to code. While you may understand what something does, she doesn't explain the syntax of coding. You're plopped down in the lab with no understanding of how to correctly code a project.

The final was 5 QUESTIONS and 30 PERCENT of the class grade!! This is a good representation of how awful the CS department is at UWEC.

An example of why teachers should go to teacher-school before trying to teach. The department should place more oversight over how she organizes/writes lectures and how she grades. We compare homework and scores so we know grading is not consistent. Some people always score better, for no reason. She ruined what was supposed to be the best class
