Reviews of professor Nick Barendt

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
The only really CS class where you'll be learning stuff you'll be using directly in the real industry

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This class taught me more than any other CS class at CWRU. The professor has put a tremendous amount of work into making weekly lessons/tutorials to follow, and he knows the material inside and out. He is great at explaining all topics at both conceptual and technical levels. He is also very kind and encouraging to students of any skill level.

The course taught me so much. It was a lot of work but the material is very applicable to the real world. We even got to keep our smart lamps that we had built over the course, which included a raspberry pi. The professor has a very thorough knowledge and is caring and practical. Be prepared to put in 10-15 hours for hw/week
