He is a super guy but just gives us way too many details that we don't need to know. He teaches pretty much straight from the textbook, which is good and bad.

He is way to smart and goes really fast through things. If good at physics his class is pretty interesting as he does lots of demos.

Complete notes and very cheerful in class. Assignments and exams are very fair and sometimes very simple. He does test theory but the questions are not unreasonable. Spend more time practicing than studying and this almost becomes a fun course to take. Almost.

I thought he was fairly good at explaining things. But his tests were very hard. The midterm was okay, but the final was very difficult.

The exams were really damn hard, but we're curved so that's not too much of an issue. Great prof overall and I dig the accent.

Sure the exams may be a little tough, but the class is curved. He's a very fair prof, explains things clearly in the class and if you go see him. Assignments can be done easily using the notes, and there are few complex calculations on the exams. Excellent prof in my books.

Usually explained concepts a little deeper (and thus over the heads of much of the class) than necessary, but kept it interesting. Assignments were not bad. The problem was the midterm and final were poorly assessed to match the 200-level class. Remember he apologized and curved it so a 45% became a B. Pretty fair and helpful/quirky in person.

His assignments were not that bad. However, his exams were killers. He's not as bad as some people say. Nice guy, just gives unfairly difficult exams.

Great class and really good prof. He really knows his stuff and he is very fair when it comes to marking and grades. People who don't like him or the class must not like physics. But if you like physics, TAKE THIS COURSE!!! You'll get out what you put it.

I thought he'd worked out the "killer exam" streak, but the averages on the exams this term were still pretty low (50% on the midterm and 42% on the final)! Luckily he curves the class so that's not a concern. You *will* learn interesting material if he's teaching the class, especially if you have an interest in physics at all. Beware the PPTs...

He's a great prof. Gives the class a little bit of humor an brings in a lot of cool demos. His finals are easy if you take at least three hours each week to do the homework thoroughly.

Was a great prof all i have are good memories. hard exams but he is just such a great teacher so funny and full of energy. and always there to help you if you need it.

Overall an okay prof. He has good powerpoint slides which present the material really well so there is really no use for the textbook. He has excellent demos which make going to class worthwhile but he just didn't do enough examples in class.

Decent prof. Presents concepts clearly, but sometimes assumes students have more knowledge than they really do, given the prerequisites. Sometimes goes into more depth than necessary. Name is really cool though!

AWESOME! Very helpful during office hours, has a sense of humor, has demos every single class making an 80min class much less torturous. Notes are organized well, gives lots of examples. Has tons of practice exams online (with answers!)which are really similar to the actual exams.

Classes were interesting. Would always stop to clarify if people had problems. Plenty of practice problems online.

This prof has a bad rep and I don't know why. He's very organized and concise and although his exams are on the tough side, you can tell he knows his stuff. He also spices up his lectures with demos and info from his work at the LHC, which is a bonus.

Though the 9am class could be a little dry, he was well organized and posted all notes online. The exams weren't that bad, but did have a couple tricky questions.

He is a very nice person. He assigns reading, and quizes online which they get quite annoying to do them. He loves to use powerpoints during his lecture which i find it useless becuase he's not showing everything. He just plays the slide and talks about it. He also uses the iclicker. exams were hard. class average was like 50%

Great prof. Really interested in what he's doing. Had some good jokes and great demos. Used the iClicker really well. recorded his lectures which was nice.

Very good prof. Gives well-organized lectures, makes good use of lecture notes and iClicker. If less than 60-65% of the class gets correct answer on an iClicker question, he will stop and explain. More emphasis on theory, but still need to know how to solve problems. Only complaint: using calculus concepts most 1st-year students hadn't learned.

Very enthusiastic about physics. Was very willing to explain concepts if the class didn't understand them. Tests were kinda hard at times, but shouldnt have been a problem if you understood the assignments.

he s good professor!!

There is so much material in this course, he can't cover everything in class, but his lectures are interesting, and he puts of alot of extra material online. Make use of the worked examples, and the textbook! He is a good prof, and the labs are easy.

A good professor, tries hard in lectures, although sometimes they are a bit dry. Makes good use of the iClicker, and those questions do engage you to pay more attention and think about stuff discussed. Homework assignments are great for review and staying on top of things. I felt some concepts are better explained in the book than by him, though.

Pretty good prof. Very helpful, considering the size of the class. The midterm was easy enough if you knew what you were doing, but the average on the last final was 43%, as it was far too long. He does shoot for a 50-60% average, but of course, the curve should even things out for you if you put in moderate effort.

Now turn to your neighbor and rate this prof.

It's physics. So first years looking for a fast and easy time should maybe consider a really light arts option. You do have to work a bit for most things worth doing. If you come into university with an entertainment or spoon-feed mentality, also maybe consider avoiding the sciences. I also had Dr. Moore for PHYS 485 (into particle physics).

He just gave the hardest physics exam that I have ever seen. The final was so brutal, be careful.

Good Prof, explain the lecture very clear, had open office hour, but to be honest, I don't like his reading assignment which you have to take 1-2 hours to watch the video and do assignments, I prefer he taught these during the lecture. Lectures are designed for doing questions, exams are hard but he is easier mark for exams.

Though the tutorials and reading assignments helped to some degree, I wish he focused more on worked examples and theory during class. He was pretty disorganised when budgeting time for his lectures since he probably finished a few lectures here and there. He also has lots of endearing qualities. He's really happy and laughs at his own jokes!

This was his first year teaching PHY130 and as expected there were some difficulties. But he's knowledgeable, caring and knows what he's talking about. Just make sure you read through his notes as they are helpful.

Amazing lectures and very helpful online lectures. Weekly assignments can be tough but really good practice. Speaks very clearly. Highly recommend.

Weekly videos and readings are useful in explaining concepts and are a nice alternative (in some cases) to large amounts of textbook readings. The assignments/quizzes that accompany the concepts every week range in difficulty. Be sure to put in time to understand the concepts as it was easy to feel unprepared for exams.

Roger Moore: living meme. He's a great prof, but also a great guy. His textbook is exceptional, glad he gave everyone a copy. Surprised he doesn't have more subscribers on YouTube. His videos are so good, I sometimes catch myself watching them in my spare time. You'll have a lifetime of regret if you pass up your chance on taking him for PHYS 130.

The mans a legend. One of the best profs Ive ever had. His tutorial videos are not only helpful, but inspirational. He really shows like he wants to be there and teach. Dont pass up the chance to take him as your prof.

With Roger Moore there will be weekly assignments based off of online videos and readings from the textbook. It may seem annoying but it they aren't very long or difficult, and they prepare you really well for the week of lectures to come. He is very enthusiastic about the material and gives you every opportunity to succeed with some effort.

Great prof. Passionate about physics and extremely knowledgeable about the course material. Spends a somewhat unnecessary amount of time on derivations, but explains concepts well and enthusiastically.

Happy Halloween

Professor Moore remains as an absolute legend in my heart. His lectures definitely brightened up the bleak days during COVID lockdown engineering in the stinky Schaffer hall. The guy is a legend and everyone saying he isn't needs to "get gud" as all you gamers say it.

Been watching his online lectures which helped me out a ton with my class. Heard he passed, RIP a real one. ( I don't even go here )
