Reviews of professor Tyler Flaagan

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Sort of rambles on reading PowerPoints but never really covers anything relevant. I get that we need PowerPoints to cover topics, but the guy just drones on.. wish hed come up and check to see that we have a pulse once in a while. Feels like a boring training session

This dude went the entire course just using Github for assignments rather than the website we used for literally everything else the previous years. Never posted a single instruction sheet, he hid them all within videos while only ever posting about assignments in the news feed. This is the first time I have had a professor withhold content from me

Took CSC 134 online for the summer. Pretty easy and sometimes fun. If you can't figure something out look online first and eliminate routes. Its much better for you to go and email a professor saying you've done "this and this but its still giving me this" instead of just saying you're stuck.

his lectures have nothing to do with the assignment's, half the time spent in class is him talking about his twitch stream the night before or looking at twitter screenshots. could've learned this entire course on my own instead.

Flaagan seems to be stuck in his child years wanting students to come to his RocketLeague stream to ask questions, how professional. Usually left to search how to do things on google. If you ask him for help, expect him to him to respond, "look it up on google". I'd rather eat apple slices dipped in Ketchup than take a class with him ever again.

Very little guidance on labs. The lab documents are all very vague on what he wants you to do. Avoid Flaagan at all costs.

The dude's bad. Really bad. Like, "told us to work on a final after the semester ended because he screwed up and deployed the wrong virtual machine, and was too busy playing Battlefield to fix anything" kind of bad. If you try to get away and take his classes from another instructor, they'll all get re-assigned to him. There is no escape.

What a waste, everything I learned could of learned by watching youtube videos or google basic firewall, IDS, and security suite usage. Teacher clearly is new and thus doesn't help out when emailing, gave vague replies. Labs were difficult to figure out how to do when examples in class did not help with actual assignment. Do not recommend at all

He teaches networking better than security and his labs are more useful. His lectures are still insanely boring with him just reading off slides. You'll wonder if you are still alive during them. There is a lot of reading with some weeks being two chapters. Test every week, final has a study guide which doesn't prepare you for the final.
