Reviews of professor Dan Stevenson

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Great lecture notes, easy weekly quizzes, no homework, optional final, and exams that are exactly the back exams. It might seem daunting that the entire grade is just quizzes and exams, but the quizzes are a free 10/10, and 25% of every exam is online. While his lectures can draw on an his voice is a tad monotonous, this class is an easy A.

Weekly HW, not difficult if you go to recitation. Unlimited page crib sheet that is not collected on exams. I have seen students bring in literal booklets with a table of contents. Exams are straightforward if you study class examples and hw problems. The questions are almost identical. Easy grader. Not the best at explaining conceptual stuff.

Professor Stevenson is a very fair professor, he is likely to give extensions if you ask in advance and will never hesitate to help you if you need it. He is a very good lecturer and will always answer your questions either in person or over email.

Awesome professor. He truly wants his students to succeed. If I could take him for every math class I would.

Stevenson knows the material he teaches and is great at teaching it. His handwriting is clear and his lecture notes are so organized that many don't come to class and do fine. He is generous with deadlines and extensions and many of his tests are styled similarly to practice or homework questions.

Dr. Stevenson is a friendly professor who cares about his students and gives fair assignments and tests. His lectures, however, focus too much on mathematical theory and proofs rather than applications. He does give good examples, but the content can be hard to follow if you don't understand his definitions, theorems, and proofs.

Professor Stevenson is one of the best math professors that RPI has to offer. For his multivariable calculus and linear algebra course, the tests were really easy but the homework was slightly difficult. However, I felt that this balanced out the overall difficulty of the course. Stevenson is very kind, considerate, and an exceptional teacher.

Stevenson is easy A. Good lecture notes. Class test averages are 20+ points above other classes. Easy tests with an in-person and open notes online portion (you have the weekend to do it). TAs go over quiz content for 30-45 min. before quiz during recitation (quizzes are in the last 15 minutes of recitation and are 2 questions). Opt. HW. No Achieve

Stevenson is a very nice guy that definitely understands the material of the course, however, his style of teaching was not something I liked very much. He tended to focus more on theoretical material than on practical applications, though this may just be a Diff Eq issue. His tests were more than fair, and Homework was graded nicely even when hard
