disorganized - changing syllabus 3 times in the middle of the sem. didn't do any teach, got the TA to do most of it. course had nothing to do about ethics even tho its an important course for engineers. didn't care made test unnecessarily hard just for the sake of doing so. exam had 10/75 question that had to deal with ethics everything else wasted

Where do I begin? This professor has 3 hour lectures where he speeds his way through the example questions ( which he refuses to post online,no egs in slides), no questions from slides on midterms or final. has assumptions for every question which he does not let you know about and finally the final was 16 random mcqs of questions we never saw.

Many 1.0 reviews are very telling that they are too illiterate to read a textbook or watch a few videos. Everything professor does is solely to check those two criteria. There is no excuse for all the eclass forum spamming you guys have been doing because you tried to exploit the eclass deadlines for your benefit and then play victim

Would take again

All the people writing 3 star reviews are complaining too much. This guy is easily a 5 star course type of guy. The person below me complains so much and hates students who have English as a second language.

This course with Jarek suits students who learn well through fast-paced lectures and active participation. Key advice: attend the first class—if it feels overwhelming, drop it immediately and pick another course. It only gets harder from there.

This was a useless course taught by a careless professor. He and the TA's contradicted each other countless times on questions about the assignments and tests. It is a crime that this course is mandatory and that he is the only professor teaching it.

The course itself is supposed to be about ethics which sounds easy enough but the professor and his gremlin TA's make it 10 times harder than it should be. Garbage questions in exam that are not related to ethics. 3 Hour lectures that are boring to say the least. The guest speakers are good but then you have to write a reflection with no criteria.

A silly yet mandatory indoctrination course for students who care nothing about politics or philosophy but simply want to contribute to technological advancements. To make matters worse, the professor in the utmost maximum calibre ensures that students GPA's are negatively affected. There are other more important courses to focus on.

Probably one of the worst profs I've had. Terrible and condescending attitude. He is really unclear on what needs to be done. His TAs graded the midterm very harshly and marked people wrong for matters of personal opinion. The assignments are light and the final wasn't bad but overall it's a terrible run and pointless course.
