Reviews of professor Stephen Martin

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I liked Prof. Martin. I had to take him 100% virtually and I think he did a decent job of it. He is pretty hardcore about cheating. If he catches copying on the hw (you can find answers on quizlet) he reports it and tests have the Lockdown browser with recording. Overall a pretty straightforward class. You just gotta pay attention & you'll be fine

Dr. Martin seriously knows his stuff and I learned a lot in this class. That being said, he made this class much harder than it needed to be. There is a lot of material to learn and tests are difficult. He is very vague about what will be on the exams. So you're left guessing what you need to focus on studying. Be ready to work hard.

He lectures from the PPT but exam material comes from the book. He covered a lot of material that wasn't on the exams. "Underwhelming" is the word I would use to describe my experience in this class.

takes forever to grade, didn't know how i was doing in class. unclear grading system & quizzes can be tricky. no late work ever. accidentally submitted the wrong file once and got a 0. tons of work/quizzes and one reading/oral assignment every week. there was one extra credit opportunity. basically self-taught class. unenjoyable and stressful.

Don't take this class if you are trying to pass for a beginner. It's extremely unclear, he grades very hard, does not help you when you are needing a clearer understanding. Hoping on luck that you pass the course. He does not accept late work at all, but there has been assignments where it's been submitted on time. ** Everything is in French**

He's an okay professor if you have to take him. His tests are much more difficult than the lecture leaving you have to read the book to even get a B. The first half of the test is multiple choice too so it's super hard but will give half credit if going in the right direction. I never get B's and I got a B.
