While I believe Professor Logan is a nice man, the online formatting of this course combined with the lack of responses to emails is what made this course frustrating. Email enquiries go weeks unanswered which rends understanding math concepts difficult without further collaboration. If you aren't strong in math you need to teach yourself a lot.

Prof. Logan is not the most accessible, however does reply eventually. As a human being, susceptible to errors but will always say oops, yep that was wrong - and fixes the issue/ updates the class. Be prepared to work, be consistent with the material and attend tutorial hours if you have questions - you will do fine.

He is the sweetest man ever! Takes a long time to reply to emails, but his class is so easy so it wasn't a big deal. He made it very easy to succeed in this class, gave no midterm or final exam. The weekly quizzes were super easy. His lectures were interesting and not monotone like other professors.

Not the best prof I've had at Carleton but certainly not terrible either. Will not round grades up or respond to e-mails, take this course if you don't mind the material being self taught. One added bonus is that your three lowest quiz grades are dropped with 4% which can be obtained from taking part in Sona experiments plus the textbook is free

Very minimal effort on his part and his TAs parts in terms of responding to emails. Both the professor and the TAs give little to no support. For an online course during COVID, I was really disappointed in the lack of support, especially for a class as difficult as this one in terms of the content.

Takes a long time to respond to his emails, but he gives very detailed rubrics of how to succeed in his class. the readings are mandatory because you have a test every week. overall there are long papers, lots of test and readings but for a research class very managable

He was a nice guy, and the class was pretty easy. His slides were pretty info-heavy but he explains things well. The papers were a bit unclear to me at times, but the quizzes are all pretty straight-forward. The textbook being free was a nice bonus! And he drops 3 lower quiz marks which is really nice.

This course has no exams but has weekly quizzes and 3 large assignments. Was difficult because the prof and Ta's were very hard to get in touch with, would not reply for weeks. The prof would post the assignment a week before its due with very little instruction or guidance for using statistical software.

bad at teaching but class is easy, if you take his class you'll understand. lectures provide insight but feel like a waste of time.

He is a nice professor. He goes through slides very quickly. This year he had two midterms, first went very well for the class but then he thought that it was too easy for us and proceeded to make the second very difficult making the class average for the second in the 50s. He proceeded to blame us for the grade even though the test was open book.

Nice guy overall but is very confusing when it comes to giving out CLEAR instructions and doesn't tell you what content is on your tests and final exam until maybe two days before if you're lucky

Unclear and unorganized when giving instructions for assignments. Doesn't teach well, just reads off slides. Made second midterm unnecessarily hard because he was upset with how high the class average was for the first midterm.

Lectures and slides were impossible to understand, just disorganized content. Had 2 mid terms, 2 big projects and an exam which was not ideal but okay weight. Professor was very energetic and enthusiastic but I still could not listen or follow to his lectures. Im not a C student, so a C in this class is a good representation of the content.

Professor Logan is a very sweet and caring person overall, always laughing during lectures which makes the content a little less gloomy. But, our final assignment was brutal to say the least, we were all so confused with little guidelines to help us. The 2nd midterm was made harder than the first because our results were too high. Final was hard.

This course was difficult in terms of midterms and the final exam, as they were worded weirdly and overall difficult tests. Prof Logan is good at making engaging lectures, but that would be the extent of it. My class also had difficulty communicating with him, and often he would not respond to emails. Disappointing because he seems like a nice guy!

I had this class first thing in the morning but I would wake up immediately when he walked in and started his booming laughter. His lectures were never boring (considering the subject matter) and the expectations for the assignments were clear. You need to read the textbook as a lot of test questions are from there, which were not covered otherwise

Could not stand this professor. Tried to ask him questions on multiple occasions and was either blown off or given a very basic answer that did not answer the question at all. He curved the class final mark, then took it away without saying anything until eventually told us he messed up uploading marks originally so it was taken away. Did not like.

Professor Logan is a funny and caring professor overall. He clearly outlines what is expected of you for tests and assignments. This a course that demands a certain level of effort to perform well. As long as you invest yourself, you'll do well. To be honest the textbook was optional in order to get a good grade. Focus on lectures and you're golden

Though this course was required and was not looking forward to it, Professor Logan made it bearable. Funny and kind professor who makes the course and assignment/test expectations clear. Despite the subject matter, he made lectures entertaining and offered plenty of support during office hours, after class and via email.
