Reviews of professor Chris Brogly

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
In a database course, he managed to make simple concepts more confusing than they are. Luckily there are plenty of resources online to learn and make up for his confusing lectures. You will often leave the lectures with more questions. Disorganized lectures and course overall, need to work on his teaching skills.

Have to disagree with the negative reviews. I took cs338 in winter 2019 and couldn't understand a thing because the professor was beyond unclear. This term (fall 2019), I took the course again with Chris and the way he explained concepts made everything click for me. Expecting 90%+ in the course. I hope he comes back to UW in the future.

Chris seems like a really nice guy - he's fairly clear and focused on the most important aspects of the course for the students' benefit, which are SQL code writing for the assignments instead of random theory and the database project, which is a great way to help students learn through building their own database. Great prof!
