I would definitely recommend taking him. Really all you have to do is get your assignments done for each module and do the tests that are proctored. Attendance is mandatory and he will grade you on it. Most of assignments are also on Pearson. This class is fairly easy if you just get your work done and pay attention to the lectures.

Great course, prepare to study because the majority of your grade depends on Proctored Midterm and Proctored Final. If you do the work on connect math, learn the material. Then you can pass the class.

I feel a sense of respect or this professor bc I know it might be hard to switch to online classes. However, I consider that the lectures are not enough preparation for the tough exams we are presented. I had completed all the homework and still didn't got a grade according to the 2 weeks I spent preparing for the test doing and reviewing the hmrk.

I would not recommend Professor Canas for STAT2023. I believe his lectures don't prepare students enough for the tests. The tests are challenging and often include material not reviewed during the lecture. He requires you to complete all the chapter homework and have it done on the test day.

Lots of homework

Very good professor. Provides everything you would need for an exam and does practice tests with you during class if you have any questions on completing certain problems. I am doing a mini term so, only four exams and chapters to complete course (4-8 hw assignments each chapter). Take notes on formulas given and talk to him if needed; he helps!!

The class is 80% quizz graded, but he gives all the necessary preparation for the quizzes. You have access to lots of videos explaining each theme and also pre tests that, if you study them, almost guaranteed 100% when you take the real test. I really recommend it, he is a person that knows what he is doing and his lectures were amazing.

Professor Canas was amazing in my summer term. He helped me out a lot with understanding the material and teaching exactly what is needed for the test. Also the study guides and videos he provides apart of the course was extremely helpful.

This is a really tough professor. He had 5 grades for my class which included homework and tests .. thats it. DO NOT TAKE HIM, he will assume you know shortcuts for math which you dont. He does not have a textbook he teaches through math lab. He prays that his answer is correct. If you want a good teacher do not take him.

Arrogant, rude, and horrible attitude. Makes the class way more difficult than necessary. "Teaches" using the homework, which he still does wrong sometimes, and then says, "you won't do it wrong on the exam". Expects students to already know shortcuts. Grade is based off mymathlab, 4 exams, and a cumulative final.

Carlos Canas is an OK professor. He does what he has to do but not much more. One thing that did throw me off and other students in the class was how he started his class 10-15 minutes earlier on the first day (this is a summer class so we missed a whole bunch of syllabus review). In addition, he goes on AI and cheating tangents a LOT.

I took this Professor the during the first summer term and his class was fairly easy. He provided test prep which efficiently prepares you for the actual test. He often goes on a tangent about cheating and other things.

Took this prof for MAC 2313. Prof Canas is a very caring & knowledgeable person in what he teaches. Before usually starting on a new concept he likes to concept build to that new concept using concepts you should've learned in previous math courses which can be very helpful. As for the hw he gives you a couple weeks to do it bc of how much it is.

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. I swear to you I took it in the summer, 4 hour long class. throughout that 4 hour class time I swear to you 3.5 of them were dedicated to him yapping about AI and how AI is bad. I don't even think I learned anything, just a whole bunch of 7th grade math and a whole lot of AI. I think he should be a CAI professor icel
