Reviews of professor Peter Adcock

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Here's the thing, POGIL doesn't work but he keeps trying to push it. The idea is nice but it just made all my friends and me NOT want to participate. When we switched to online classes I didn't watch a single lecture. I read the book and looked up videos because they made more sense. Dr. Adcock really seems to care, but his system is terrible.

His manner of speaking was not engaging. You can tell he loves chemistry but he should be teaching higher levels than 100s because he doesn't remember how much students don't know. Showing up to lecture everyday didn't help me understand what he was saying, ended up teaching ourselves from the textbook in a study group.

The class is alright; he makes us do pogils but never explains what he is doing, so most people are lost. Pogils don't work, but he still pushes them. He does gives good extra credit on the tests, though.

Terrible. He's committed to Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL). He doesn't lecture, uses online homework, and doesn't write the final. We work in groups with workbook. He also gives us math that we don't have background for. On the rare occasion he shows derivations, he makes mistakes. mistakes. I'm paying for TEACHING, not a book
