Stretch Rocks! Professor Dendauw is an excellent facilitator to students. He get the points across to students with easy to understand powerpoint and book to read to relay the points he is teaching. Keep up the good work. Great Instructor - AWESOME!!!!!
Great teacher that brings real practical knowledge to the classroom. He uses excellent audio / visual aids that make the course interesting. I have taken two classes and am waiting for a third to become available. I highly recommend this professor.
Challenging and rewarding course I have ever had the honor taking with ERAU. Used all my collective knowledge learned through every course taken during my degree program.

- Stretch was a great teacher he made it interesting and fun.
Kept the course interesting with class room interaction and legit games to help review for the test.
This is the 2nd class I've had with Mr. Dendauw. No doubt, the "BEST INSTRUCTOR" at ERAU. I hope to have another class with him soon!
being in the military for over 27 years I was still able to learn a lot with regards to civil aviation and the operating methods of this industry.
This guy needs a pay raise... Why did I find him for my last class. I would take every class he offers.
I sent the instructor emails and did not get a response every time. I am doing an end of course survey and I only have one grade.
Outstanding! A very well developed course. I learned more than just what was in the book. This new knowledge even enhanced what i have previously learned in prior Aviation Courses.
Highly recommend the instructor for next classes at ERAU. Had good learning experience for 9 weeks.
"Stretch" enjoys teaching his subjects. SFTY 320 is an easy, fun, and fascinating class. Stretch requires you to participate which means no sleeping in class. It will not be hard to do because his class is interesting.
- Great instructor, always made sure that the class had fun. Made the class enjoyable and was able to get max participation from everyone. I would recommend him to any student taking this class.
- Enjoyed the up beat, motivation that Mr. Dendauw came to each class with. :)
- He kept us involved in class. With several group exercises. - Great instructor!!! I will be taking another course offered by him.
- This is my first class with him and I look forward to taking more. He's funny and keeps things moving. Class was never boring. - GREAT instructor, I wish I could have him for every class. Really gets the class involved. Thank you!

- Mr.Dandauw, is a great instructor. He made the class very interesting and taught a everyone's level of knowledge. Great class and would take more classes with him again.!!
Awesome teacher
One of the best classes I've attended. Instructor made the class fun, which resulted in much greater participation. Very knowledgeable surrounding the material provided. Superb job!!
He makes it really fun and makes me want to come to class everytime. He is the best teacher I have had. I will tell everybody that takes any safety classes to go throught him!!
Very good instructor! I enjoyed his class very much and, if I had more classes he taught needed, I would prefer him.
very helpful
Excellent professor take it, if you don't take this class with him then your are in the wrong track. easy to understand and easy to deal with him in every aspect of the class. Do not worries about the test.
Prof. Dendauw is an extremely smart on the subject area. He kept the class entetain at all time, and participating. He provided very good examples, pictures, charts and much more, to help us understand the content. He is very helpful and easy to talk to. Thank you very much for your expertise on the subject. Keep up the good job.
Excellent Instructor keep this professor always in Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, fantastic class, excellent methods and assistant. Cooperation with every student is 100%. Class overall EXCELLENT!!!!
Excellent instructor. Stretch is well versed in the human factors arena and has increased my awareness of the subject matter. I would recommend him to other students. I look forward to my experience with him as my instructor for SFTY 335.
I would definitely recommend this professor to anyone. Overall it was a great course and I learned so much from it. It was a great course. Very interesting way Human factors affects the safety in aviation. Great class and instructor! Learned a lot during these past few weeks!!
You couldn't ask for a better instructor. He was always on time, and he was always ready to teach. I never had an issue with getting involved or excited about this course because Professor Dendauw made it fun. I would definitely recommend students to take his courses.
Very knowledgeable of course material. Dan was enthusiastic each time he instructed keeping the entire class engaged in learning. Will look forward to taking other courses after seeing first hand the caliber of staff at Embry-Riddle.
Outstanding instructor. I hope to have Mr. Dendauw in future courses.
AWESOME Instructor!!! I have had Mr. Dendauw in the past for Saftey courses and he is an exceptional teacher. The class is always ready to go and it is never boring. The videos about Aircraft accidents and investigations are amazing as to see how NTSB finds the causes leading to the accident.
AWESOME class Mr. Dendauw!!! Your classes are always fund and enjoyable they are never boring like some classes I have taken. You are always prepared and ready to go. I will see you again for more classes and I highly recommend Mr. Dendauw as an instructor!!
This professor is one of the best I have had.. He explained the material in great detail.
Very exciting instructor. Kept the class involved for the whole time while in class. Very knowledgeable of information.
- I have had eleven EV ERAU classes and Professor Daniel Dendauw was by far the most personable and concerned instructor I've ever had. His delivery is easy yo understand and his pleasant and quick wit is an added bonus. His students are put at ease allowing them to freely ask questions and engage the subject. Great job!
- The instructor did an excellent job adapting the online version of this class to the Eaglevision format. Professor Stretch kept the class interesting with the case studies and class participation. I'll be looking forward to other classes with this professor. Very interesting course, and Prof. Stretch was a great instructor.
- very active and passionate for the class - The instructor was very knowledgeable. - ur instructor was very good. He kept the class engaged in the lerning task, he was anything but a boring teacher. - Great instructor, definitely has a wealth of knowledge. I would gladly take another class with Mr. Dendauw again.
- Professor Dendauw (Stretch) makes class a very learning experience. This is my FINAL class to attain my Bachelor's Degree and couldn't have asked for the perfect professor to wind this 17 year long-traveled road with than Stretch!! Appreciate everything Sir!
- Great instructor. Always available to answer any questions.- Instructor was available if needed. Seemed like a nice guy.
At the beginning of class I was really sweating this cap stone but the way the instructor delivered it really helped me to relax and take one step at a time. The example projects really helped me. I would definitely recommend this professor to other students that will be taking the Capstone!!
I appreicated the emails each week updating what is due, what week it is, and to assure us that he (professor) was avialable if anyone needed any help. Highly recommend This Professor! Wouldn't have passed, but since he explained the process so good, and so clear, it was a lot easier!
- This is a tough course. I was so accustom to writing papers that already had a conclusion and all I had to do was research the story and report on it, the capstone is totally different the student must make a conclusion not report on what has been decided. Other than that I have had an awesome time. You made getting my degree fun.
- Prof Stretch was awesome! Great instructor for this course.
- The instructor was the worst I've had at ERAU. He was hard to get in communication with. 10 days later received a response. My performance in the class was hindered on account of this instructor's lack of emails. Emails thought the course which made the deadlines confusing and made it difficult to fully understand what this instructor wanted.
- I feel that the course could be revamped to clarify the objectives. One should not have to spend the entire course time getting proposals approved. I understand the intentions of the course, but still baffled, wondering what was it all about, and what was it suppose to achieve.
- Great instructor, very knowledgeable was clearly an expert in the field and kept the class interesting. I very much enjoyed the class because of the instructor.
- Wonderful class, learned a few things, enjoyed the lectures and the case studies.
- Great instructor and learned a lot of things I didn't know about in the aviation field. - I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of Mr. Dendauw's class. He is a very engaging and entertaining teacher. I would definitely take further classes with him.
GREAT attitude, really involves the students and makes it FUN. It was refreshing to participate in a fun class that also incorporated a plethora of good, relevant information related to this intro level course. Look forward to future classes with this instructor.
- Professor Dendauw brought energy and excitement to the course. I really enjoyed his style of instructionteaching! I would love to take another coursesubject with him! Knowledgeable and well versed in his subject matter, he made the class fun and allowed a way to learn that was unconventional but it worked, with great success.
Fun guy. He makes class enjoyable. I hate the ranking 'Easy A', because it makes it sound like he gave good grades away. He did make it easy to understand everything. The only complaint I had about the class was the lack of organized material. The Internet was our text book. Made it difficult at times to locate the information.
- While there was not the usual amount of studentprofessor interaction due to this being a Capstone course, Professor Dendauw made sure we understood what was expected from us and was very active via email.
- I had Stretch for multiple classes and he is by far one of the best. He is very straight forward in his teaching and does not waste your time with unnecessary "busy work" You have to work hard and put forth the effort but he will always make sure you succeed as long as the effort is there.
- Professor Daniel Dendauw is an amazing instructor. I had him for most of my safety classes on Eagle vision as they were not taught at my campus. I totally enjoyed having him as an instructor. I highly recommend any future students to take his classes, even his capstone course. Very informative and through with all the materials.
- One of the most thorough and success-focused instructors I experienced throughout my studies with Embry-Riddle. One of the best!!
Course was made MUCH more interesting due to the videos presented in class. Would like to see more interesting and applicable videos in other courses. It makes along class go by much more quickly and makes it much easier to stay involved and interactive.
- Mr. Dendauw is absolutely fantastic. He is a fun and energetic instructor and chose great material for the class. It made the class MUCH more interesting with watch an interactive video each week.
- Professor Dendauw is probably the only reason I was able to pass this course. He repeatedly corrected my efforts and pointed me in the right direction. Thanks the reason I scored two categories as neutral is because this course is self motivated in my opinion. you either want to pass it, or you don't.
- Could respond a little faster via email. Sometimes took more than two days to reply back. - Great teacher, easy to contact. Very interested in helping us, and seeing us succeed. - Professor Daniel Dendauw is an excellent instructor. I was lucky to have him in other classes as well.
- Instructor was engaging and bright fervor and energy to each class. Instructor kept the class actively engaged during each session. Instructor was very knowledgeable about subject matter and provided quick and pertinent feedback for work submitted. Instructor made regular announcements and responded to inquiries very quickly.
I really benefited from his expert guidance. He provided detailed instructions on day 1 and kept sending us updates and reminders to keep us on track. Professor Dendauw was extremely supportive and readily available to answer questions or provide guidance. His feedback was timely and relevant.
Fantastic job for our last course experience, Prof Stretch!
The instructor would regularly try to get students to contact him via phone which I am guessing that this was for the purpose of eliminating a communication record lacking in course information exchange and a general negative attitude to the students. I am sure this led to overall poor student grade performance and number of course completions.
I really benefited from his expert guidance. He provided detailed instructions on day 1 and kept sending us updates and reminders to keep us on track.
This course will cause an individual a lot of stress and the course can be very difficult if there is an instructor who cannot clarify the instructions or provide clarification on what is required by the student. If asked by future students, faculty, and staff I would highly recommend not using this instructor.
Liked the case studies; very interesting!!!
Awesome instructor, knowledgeable and provides a great lesson.
The instructor did a great job.
Dan is one of the best instructors that i have had the pleasure of learning from. He is very mindful and willing to help under any circumstances. I have taken many classes with him in the past and he has always been a great professor. He has been a great guide for me during this course and made the journey as smooth as he possibly could.
Outstanding professor! I wish I would have had him the first time I took the class. 2nd class with him. Highly recommend him to others.
Great Instructor!!! i recommend him to anyone needing this class. He was one of the best instructors I have had so far with Embry Riddle. He always kept the class engaged, and the information was always interesting, Hopefully I will have him as my instructor in future courses.
Prof. Dendauw was an amazing teacher that kept the class engaged throughout every class. Very knowledgable on subject material. The nine weeks flew by in a flash. Thanks for a great class. Ill be on the look out for future classes that you are teaching!
The aeronautics capstone course is very intense. There is a lot of research and writing. I am glad this course is finally over. Yay. I can finally celebrate to have completed my Bachelors degree. Thank you Stretch!
It was great that Prof. Dendauw held an eagle vision meeting with the class the first week. That was a huge help in figuring out how to do the proposal as well as the final project. Amazing. He gave us everything that we needed to successfully complete this course. The orientation set my mind at ease.
Excellent instructor for capstone course. Always answered phone calls or emails no matter. He took a very stressful course and assignment and put our minds to ease. Very helpful, and always there to help. GREAT TEACHER.
Mr. Dendauw quickly responded to every text, email, or phone I made in regards to the Capstone project. Very accessible and helpful. I am glad I had this professor for my capstone. Dan was exceptional to work with throughout the term. He was available at all times and readily able to answer any questions.
This was a challenging course that required a great deal of effort, but overall it was manageable and a great experience. I will also recommend professor Dendauw with this delivery method. Very challenging and stressful course for non-native English speaker. I've already recommended this instructor to others.
The instructor was very positive and encouraging throughout the course. One thing that stood out about him the most was how motivating and reinforcing he was to the class about how we would pass and graduate. This is the culminating event to my B.S. in Aeronautics and I could not have asked for a better teacher.
Professor Dendauw provided great guidance and feedback during our time in this course. He was always available to answer questions, and actually cared if we passed or failed. The instruction that he gave was easy to understand and answered a lot of questions before we even asked them.
Professor Dendauw made this daunting class easier by keeping the mood of the class light. This was a very stressful class for me, in the fact that it is the culmination of the last several years of school. Professor Dendauw made this class easier.
The course was very straight forward and easy to understand. The easiest part was just taking it nice and slow and progressively working on the capstone throughout the rest of the course with all the busy work being left out of the course.
Really appreciated the feedback on assignments. Professor Den Dauw has been one of very few ERAU professors to actively give unique and custom feedback on assignments instead of generic copy and paste remarks. Thank you!
Professor Dan Dendauw is such an excellent instructor. He's very knowledgeable and he takes the time to support , give feed back to every single student! I enjoyed the whole class start to the end! I have lots of respect for Mr. DAN!
One of the best Instructors at Embry Riddle. I can't wait to do my capstone with him in May 2018. Thank you Dan, you've been exceptional.
I really really enjoyed my instructor! He was a great guy and was always in a good mood. I am really going to miss being in his class. Very good instructor.
Great Instructor, kept things interesting and because of him I am taking another eagle vision class.
The instructor would not provide timely feedback on questions. When I first started the course, I had an issue with loading the assignment and called the instructor. He said he doesn't know the system and told me to call a classmate. I had a problem on one assignment that he gave me a zero, so I asked questions for clarification.
Excellent instructor, would really like to take more of his classes.
Prof D was always on-top of his class and keeping up with assignments. Sometimes I would receive my grade early Monday afternoon, which is amazing considering it would take several days in some of my classes.
The instructor was terrific. They were completely understanding of personal and work-life issues in conjunction with scheduling nightmares, so that was extremely beneficial. Overall, the responses that the instructor gave to projects and discussions were quite thought provoking and made me consider different views and concepts.
Professor Dendauw did a great job of keeping the class engaged in the material, and was active in his announcements and messages. For me in particular, I had some personal issues in the middle of the course and he helped me stick with the class and was extremely flexible with my situation. If it were not for him and his assistance, big fail!
Great instructor! This is a tough course with very specific requirements. Professor Dendauw provided timely critique/feedback and was readily available for questions. In conclusion, I feel he's perfect to teach the Capstone!
Great instructor, very knowledgable. The instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful. Any other necessary feedback with the instructor was not of consequence and given directly to the professor.
Prof. Dendauw was the perfect person to teach this class. In order to pass this class you must spend about 15-20 hours a week. I suggest doing all your research one week and spend the remaining time writing. The total assignment was about 30 pages. If you write a 15 page assignment, don't expect to get a good grade.
This professor is more of a guide for the Capstone Course, ASCI490. This project is on you to complete, but he is always available for clarification and questions. Truly, though, this course is research you do and a paper you write. I appreciated his honesty, as his comments drove changes that made the outcome what it was.
Prof. Dendauw shared his experience with each module and posed interesting questions keeping the class conservation moving along and engaging Encouraged students to provide quality work. Gave helpful feedback for assignments and posed thought-provoking questions for discussions. I like the fact that you get involved in the discussion!
Dan did a great job communicating, critiquing, and giving me lots of help with my project. He did exactly what I thought he was meant to do, which was give feedback on the progress and content of my project which allowed me to correct my errors to help me receive a good grade and made the project educational for me.
The BEST professor that I've had throughout my journey at ERAU--an absolute pleasure to have him. I've never had one so active throughout the course, and was readily available anytime by phone throughout the week
Professor Dendauw is always readily available for his students. He encouraged me and ensured that I give my best to the college. I was definitely inspired by his teachings and guidance throughout the whole course
Professor Dendauw was an awesome instructor and made the Capstone enjoyable. This course is already very challenging and intimidating, Prof Dendauw's positive encouragement andenergy eased any anxiety I had about completing this. He also explained everything very well at the beginning of the course in his recorded brief.
Instructor Dan Dendauw provided very little feedback on assignment grades. When asked for additional feedback, instructor refused to provide the requested feedback. Instructor does not care about students education!
Avoid if at all possible. Copy and paste same feedback each week. Does not provide additional feedback, expect you to figure it out on your own. Does not respond to emails in a timely manner. Completely unavailable outside class.
The worst professor I've ever experienced. He was very unsupportive. Look for a different professor!
Professor Dendauw was great throughout the course and provided video feedback along with comments for assignments. Although he was not very active in the discussion forums it did not seam to effect the class or grades. Start the research paper early, it is 25% of your grade. I wrote the abstract 3 times after his comments & ended up w/ a 100%.
ASCI491 was the capstone for my degree, and Professor Dendauw was very welcoming into this new course. He would happily take time to explain things to people who were not familiar with the capstone process (such as myself). He gave good feedback and encouraged participation throughout the course to ensure we did not get behind.
So if you look at the history of his reviews they were all really positive with something possibly changing recently.. He was so detached from our class it was like AI was teaching it. He posted the same meaningless comments each week on discussions, and the same thing with assignment feedback. He would mark down assignments and say you did great
The professor seemed as if he was either teaching another class at the same time or distracted from our class. At times it felt as if everything was cut-and-paste replies or it was an AI was teaching it. When I questioned what I had done wrong the reply was mostly to look it up in the APA 7 Book and didn't give better direction or an example.
Instructor was very engaged and helpful
Professor Dendauw was great! I wish I would have gotten a little bit more on my research paper sections to see what I may need to fix to ensure the best grade I could. Other than that the class was great and I would recommend him to another student!
Professor Dendauw has a specific teaching style, but if you put in the work, you can do well. I found ChatGPT, Quizard, and unstuck study super helpful for study prep. Attend class, read the textbook, and you'll learn a lot.
