Very knowledgeable

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The exams were kinda hard but GIS is so helpful and getting that lab experience was really cool. Lecture isn't mandatory but I'd recommend going, both for the content and for his little dad jokes.

I quite enjoyed this course as an introduction, Professor Hinton was overall a very good lecturer and give reasonable assignments for beginners with the ArcGIS software. I am not particularly computer savvy, but instructions and assignments were clear enough that I had no issue. Exams are a little unclear on expectations, but overall not too bad.

Hinton is a good professor, but I wish I had taken Hurley instead. Hinton has great, informative lectures. He goes through them really fast, and it can be hard to keep up! The class is graded on an unusual grading scale, because this class is kind of tough with grading. Be sure to review the slides to study!
