Reviews of professor Robert Wieman

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He talks way too much and doesn't explain material well. Makes mean sarcastic remarks. When I ask questions he just tells me to keep trying.

He is too much

Quizzes everyday that you can't miss because if you do then you can't retake it. A student came in sick because he knew he couldn't retake the quiz even if he had proof of sickness. He felt pressured into coming by the way the grading system in his class works. The myMathLab is very ambiguous.

A very conceptual teacher doesn't go in-depth on the things that will actually be graded. If you haven't taken Calculus before, for your own sake, switch professors. Calculus 1 by itself isn't an incredibly hard class, however, Dr. Wieman makes it so. Even with mandatory attendance, you will have to learn the subject almost completely out of class.

worst teacher I've ever had in my entire school career, doesn't teach anything, class is extremely heavy, does not help at all with questions, no study guides, literally nothing. DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR AT ALL COSTS PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF

You will be teaching yourself the whole semester. He talks too much about the concepts of class topics and runs out of time to do example problems.Very stingy about grading quizzes, if you do not answer it in the way he likes    it will not matter if you answered correctly.

Awful professor. You purchase a workbook at the beginning of the semester (literally just worksheets) and do them independently during class. No instruction or teaching from professor. TAs were unhelpful as well. Weekly quiz, but quizzes/tests were easy. Easy A as long as you know how to self-teach.

This professor was probably the worst I've ever taken. He relies on the workbook and your peers to help learn the material. He doesn't ever reply to emails, doesn't grade consistently, and his tests are impossible. For the tests you could get the right answer but if your work isn't done the way he want, you lose points. AVOID THIS MAN!!

He hasn't updated grades since October and NEVER answers email. For a whole semester you don't know if you are passing or not until the end. He just assigns workbook pages in class and TA's do the "teaching". ALEKS. do them all because slip up one and problems start. Take ALEKS notes because that's where you will learn the most and BEST.

Wieman is fine at teaching the concepts and answering questions, though it's mostly taken straight from the textbook. The main issue lies in his grading system, which is unique, and his tough grading. I wish I can explain more in detail; but my advice: write out your reasoning/process, he's more likely to give credit if you get the math work wrong.
