| course rating : | 3 - Good |
| course comments : | Good amalgam of linear algebra, advanced calculus, and complex function theory. Perhaps not enough coverage of complex variables. |
| class : | Spring 2003 section 001 |
| grade received : | A+ |
| class rating : | 1 - Bad |
| class comments : | This class was recorded for the distance learning, and the format was awful. There was no time for examples or questions. |

| course rating : | 3 - Good |
| course comments : | This class is basically 3 mini courses of Matrix algebra/manipulation, Advanced Calculus, and Complex Variables. The matrix stuff is almost a rehash of what you leaned in undergrad math classes (341 maybe?). Advanced calc and complex variables gets a bit tougher, but with a good professor, these shouldn't be too bad. |
| class : | Spring 2004 section 001 |
| grade received : | A- |
| class rating : | 3 - Good |
| class comments : | Weekly homework of 4-5 problems, 1 was selected to grade. 3 tests, 1 for each unit as described above. Homework and tests were closely related and very fair. |
| instructor : | Shearer |
| instructor rating : | 4 - Awesome |
| instructor comments : | Good teacher. Very friendly and encourages class interaction. Interjects a good bit of humor into his class as well. Explains stuff very clearly and speaks clearly. Homeworks and tests were always graded promptly and fairly. |
