Dr. Pedram was my Supervisor at AUT and the best lecturer I've ever seen. Hope I'll See him someday Again.

Needs textbook with scheduled extra-credit meetings not mentioned when registering. Friendly, but highly disorganized and takes a while grading. Easy grader, but lectures are terrible - watch them only for key points and read the (expensive) textbook for the sake of your understanding. Expect less than 48-hours notice on quizzes and exams. Avoid.

Go to every single one of his live sessions you will need them. I learned nothing in this class. I only learned based on my own research and googling. His lectures arent very helpful besides the ones he explains his assignments

Had the Embedded and real-time systems course at AUT with him. He is one of the best teachers I have ever had. The lectures were well organized and he delivers very well. Hands-on projects with lab hours were super helpful. He is nice, keeps the class interactive and gives good feedback. Quizzes and final exam were easy/average based on lectures.

I took him WIN 2022 during COVID. He is unresponsive to quiet questions online. It's better in-person since he can ask you to speak up.

He alternates between content lecture and hw solving. He showed us how to solve most of the hw problems assigned. Tests are similar to the hw. We had open everything tests. 

Homework is graded based on effort.

Super chill professor, maybe even too chill lol. Homework is graded off of effort and not correctness. Lectures are decent, he usually goes over slides and then works out a few homework problems. Exams are open book and you can bring any non-electronic material you want. His tests are kinda long , but since they're open book it's not too bad.
