Reviews of professor Malcom Sanders

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Malcolm Sanders haunts me still to this day. I took this class my first semester freshman year and it plummeted my GPA. Not even for my major. He literally had me crying in the emergency stairwell of my dorm trying to do homework because he never explained a thing in class. He frankly should be fired.

The man just goes through slides from the textbook that he clearly hasn't reviewed before lecture and tries to explain what he can. I've never heard a professor say 'um' so many times. He also just skips difficult material that you will still be asked about on homeworks.

Hasn't worked through an example from the homework or textbook in class. Every lecture slide is straight from the textbook. Practice Exams are from 2006, and it seems like the exams haven't been updated in a decade. Attendance is mandatory through learning catalytic, but a waste of time to go to lecture because it's all from the book but done worse

He frequently gets problems wrong in front of the whole class and doesn't understand his own material. He stands in front of the board staring at his work trying to figure out what he did and what to do next.

It's been three weeks and not a single lecture has been useful . He skips through dense content slides and expects you to record them in under 30 seconds. Learning Catalytics holds students hostage, and he has yet to actually write out a single example problem. Expect to teach yourself from the textbook. Good luck soldier.

When you enroll in a class, you expect the professor to understand the material HE WAS HIRED TO TEACH,  when it comes to sanders, I believe he is learning the content as he is "teaching" it. He spends the whole class at the front of the room either trying to figure out technology or not understanding the material he copies from the textbook.

I took a course on the fundamentals of Physics with calculus. This was my first time, like most of my peers, blending the two subjects. Naturally, I was expecting to be assisted in this process, or in other words, to be TAUGHT. But not once, not one SINGLE time (keep in mind this is a 4 day a week course), did Professor Sanders lecture.

I think a lot of the comments above have been pretty unfair to Dr. Sanders - he can be a bit unclear as a lecturer sometimes, but he is very responsive and guides you through the material of a challenging course. If you're willing to read (a lot) and tackle challenging homework assignments, I'm guessing you fill find this class very rewarding.

Lectures are useless, if attendance wasn't graded I wouldn't have gone to class. Reading quizzes are often confusing or ambiguous, requiring odd assumptions to get credit. The supplied exam equation sheets were often missing info. The homework carried me through the class but was often extremely difficult. I did well no thanks to Prof. Sanders.
