pretty basic

Overall, i think this lab supervisor was fair and offered help when needed

Does the best he can with what little he has. A smile never killed anyone though.

You got to love Rick

Great! I learned a lot and i enjoy coming to the labs!!! YAY

I am sorry that it may not seen as though the class participates and gives you feed back. I would l give you constructive critisism and say that you may wish to write more on the board. I learned some useful tools in your course.

its all good

Excellent Labs, learned lots.

This lab was overall quite helpful - especially for the assigments. However, I found the lab on databases to not be helpful at all, as rick had us follow the lab on our own - without any explanation. Thus, the assignment for databases was very difficult.

Overall effective professor.

Very nice guy and very helpful. Great being in his class.

Pretty nice, and hot too.

Controlling. Although this is needed for a classroom to be ran. The student s are adults and therefore should be treated as so.

very cool guy. good teacher. its nice to have a teacher with a sense of humour.

Teaching assistants were too direct in their explanations, making those who did not understand directions feel much dumber than they really were. Patience is a scarce resource in this lab.

I liked lab component much better then lecture

Good Lab teacher

Good teacher, I just wish we didn't get deducted marks for needing help on tasks!

God bless him

Effective, but lacking excitement and personality.

My lab experience was great! Mr. Henderson is very knowledgeable about the topics that were covered. I am glad that I took CP102. I actually learned a lot from the labs.

kind of mean to newcomers...NOT EVERYONE IS COMPLETELY COMPUTER COMPETENT

Rick I had a blast. You're a great guy and it was awesome being in your lab everyweek. P.S. I don't know how you did it, but you also had two of the hottest TA's around working with you. Peace out buddy, your most bestest front row student ever.

Nice Job! Cheers!

You're a good teacher

not bad. a little bit of a trecky, but a nice helpful guy all the same.

Overall, was a helpful teacher and makes class interesting

Explanations are clear, easily understood. Very Friendly, humourous. Overall good instructor.

Very effective

great lab..was very enjoyable...

the labs saved my grade

Very good lab. I learned alot. However, we could have spent more time on the statistics stuff, since that was the hardest assignment. Overall, he was really helpful and he did a good job supervising the labs.

his jokes were annoying, but somewhat funny...

the jokes are good at keeping my attention

The labs are interesting, no too easy, but not too hard either. Rick understands what he is teaching and is a good TA.

Rick is a really professional, and repectful lab supervisor. Although sometimes his jokes are a little sketchy..haha! jk Overall he is a very friendly, approachable person ..labs were definately THE BEST aspect of this course.

Rick is friendly and is knowledgable regarding this subject. He is able to relay the information necessary for labs in a professional manner, yet he is still personal and answers questions without hesitation.

Had lots of fun in Labs

-always very clear in all explanations and will help with any questions we have

You hold some strong teaching qualities and clarify every possible techniques in computers. You are a great lab professor and wish you the best of luck in the future.

he was very rude

Thanks for a great term. I've learned a lot

I had fun in this lab. The content was challenging but the TA's and the Lab Supervisor did what ever they could to make it fun.

nice t.a

Very friendly, and helpful during lab classes.

good guy, helps you when needed. but still tries to ensure that the students learn on their own

Good humour and very good knowlw/edge of the material. Can be a bit rude at times, especially when thinking that students do not pay attention.

made me feel very comfortable....and the class not sumthing i dresded each week coz it would be boring...so over all...nice experiance.

Nope not one

Helpful instructor for computer users with little skill. Good quick to the point classes, and extra help is always there for those that fall behind.

He calls himself Sauron, enough said.

good guy

He is teaching new stuff to make this course more attractive and practical.

He was my TA; he was hilarious. His smart-ass comments towards students made it amusing. He would get this look on his face where he'd scwint his eyes and purse his lips then sarcastically answer you. Oh, how I loved it. Keep up the good work sir.

decent class, extremely easy (unless maybe you're a mennonite and dont get electricity). he has some funny reactions if you come in late or have your cell phone ring, however

really helpful guy. funny and easy going most of the time too, generally helpful and can explain stuff clearly and makes sense. good prof!

Wonderful!

I find going to lectures saves me studying time, but you can learn from the text yourself (it's easy) and get high marks. All the lab marks are giveaways so do all the stuff and you can A+ too. He explains things so clearly that you can learn it without really studying. He doesn't bite if you're not late to lectures or asking him stupid questions

Awesome Prof! I found the class really interesting and Prof Henderson to be very articulate. Just don't show up late!

The labs were pretty easy, as long as you prepared and did the myitlab exercises. ALthough his attitude to some students were not that great, as long as you do ur work and come prepared to class it's not a problem. Every lab he would do explanations on areas that other students from previous labs had trouble on. This was very helpful

This guy doesn't care about his students at all. He never says anything that isnt condescending and always seems angry in labs. Not a good prof. But at least he knows his class is a joke.

Great class and great Prof

Rick Henderson was a really good prof. He would always respond to emails quickly. He made the classes easier with practices and videos he posts online.

Good prof overall. Sometimes he gets really mad so be aware of that. And please, DO NOT talk a lot during his lectures because he WILL embarrass you.

Great guy. Just do the homework, and go to labs (mandatory) early to show how hard you're willing to work. Easy to rub him the wrong way, but it's not hard to get him on your side either. Also a real comic book guy who loves both Marvel and DC.

Very interesting teacher. He seems to enjoy Visual Basic and knows a lot about it,does a pretty good job of teaching it. However he is always pissed off in the labs for some reason and is very rude during them. I've also heard he teaches the Python course, but I didn't have him for that so I can't comment. Overall I think the good outweighs the bad

Lectures are not useful, just read the textbook. Assignment and lab expectations/instructions were clear, and were easy at first but were challenging later on (though easier than typical CS courses). Exams were all multiple choice and easy to earn a high mark with little studying. Cares about his students doing well but lost his temper a few times.

He has become my favourite cp prof at WLU. He is such an amazing professor. His lectures are very entertaining, and he is very fair and understanding. He is also inclusive and really handled this semester better than any other cp prof in my opinion. I wish all the best in his future endeavours. Class is quite easy especially if you're in comp sci

Solid prof overall. Gave lots of resources to learn more about the content so it's clear he cares. He gets frustrated by students who understandably treat this course as a bird course. The only difficult thing in this course was the final assignment worth 10% of your mark. Everything easy is pretty easy. There were 3-4 classes total online.

Definitely my new favourite professor ever! He is super passionate about what he teaches, and genuinely wants every student to succeed. I havent been so excited for a class in so long and Im really thankful that I had him as a prof.

If you know how to code this class should be a pretty easy A since he goes through it pretty slowly and does a good job explaining things. Assignments are super easy and the exam is pretty easy as well. I went to lecture and found that questions on the exam were just things he'd said in class but lots didn't and did well. Overall a good prof.
