Reviews of professor Devaun McFarland

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
It is extremely hard to get in contact with him. There have been times were it takes weeks to get him to respond to emails. Whether it is extremely important, he doesn't give much effort in responding and seems to me like he really just doesn't care.

This class you are on your own, he comes to class to read the powerpoints then class is over. This class was the most stressful class I have ever taken, there is nothing "easy" about it. The test are very hard also.

Disappointed of this class. This instructor in my opinion doesnt know how to teach. His class is basically to open power point presentations from the book, read them through, give you assignments, finish the class early, but he will not give you any feedback from your assignments until the last day of class. Basically, teach yourself. GoodLuck

Stays busy, so not easy to reach outside of class. Visit during office hours and ask questions in class, he will help you. Very knowledgeable on the subjects he teaches and gives good feedback when you can get a hold of him. Lectures are plain but to the point. Most graded work is based on online notes. Nice dude, has a sense of humor.

Mr. McFarland comes to class to read a powerpoint. He put things on our tests that had not been addressed yet and told us that it was a way for us to learn. He did not post grades except in bulk twice in the semester. He would not provide correct answers for our tests/quizzes.

Terrible at giving grading criteria. Doesn't explain assignments very well. Expects you to know exactly what to do, and then only after he **very lately** grades them will you find out what you did wrong. Except he just gives grades with no feedback most of the time. Also every class was the same, just him reading off of a presentation for an hour.

I took McFarland for an online computer 101 course. From the start he was very bad about getting back to emails and directly answering questions I asked. There is soooo much work in this class and for an online course, it's one of the hardest classes I've ever taken. Since it's online and he obviously doesn't teach, you have to teach yourself :/
