anybody else in bus 350 with watson and think he is probably one of the worst teachers?


has anyone had him before?? if so what are his tests like?

1/25/2007 8:21:39 PM

He seems like a nice guy, but you're so right. This is by far the worst instruction I've experienced at state. I'm wondering if he's ever tried Toastmasters or had to speak in public?

1/27/2007 8:40:52 AM

had him last semester. hes a good guy.

1/27/2007 10:05:24 AM

yes he does seem like a nice man but not everyone is meant to teach... and he definitely wasnt.

jcash what were his tests like?

1/28/2007 5:11:45 PM

yeah i have him this semester and we have a test coming up next week. what were his tests like?

1/30/2007 3:22:42 PM

Is the test next week or the week after? I thought it was the week after.

1/30/2007 10:00:25 PM

its on the 8th, a week from this thursday.

1/31/2007 2:23:58 PM

Hey Pakroust,
did he say this yesterday (about the test)? I got to class a little late. I had written in my notes that the test would be the week of the 12th and that we wouldn't have class on the 13th.

1/31/2007 5:08:23 PM

if i heard correctly he said we'll be finishing up chapter 4 tomorrow and start ch. 5 on tuesday. that way the test would be on 1-4 definitely and maybe half of chapter five. im pretty confident, however that he said the test is a week from tomorrow. we'll find out for sure i guess in class.

1/31/2007 11:40:23 PM

anyone have an idea of what his test is going to be like?

2/6/2007 2:51:35 PM

i have no clue but i wish i did. im wondering if he'll use the questions on the companion website since it has mult. choice and t/f and he said thats what the test will be made of.

2/7/2007 9:26:16 PM

did he do any type of review yesterday? give any mention other than that it might have some multiple choice and t/f?

2/7/2007 11:15:43 PM

i only go about once a week. its too much of a waste of time. so i dont know if there was a real review. i doubt it. he probably just said what chapters its going to be on and that its going to be mc/t/f.

2/8/2007 10:37:18 AM

yea im on the once per week schedule also

2/8/2007 11:42:24 AM

last semester he gave a good review of what to study for our second test. a little less so for our first.

2/8/2007 12:52:33 PM

yeah, no we really didnt have any review. he said he would answer questions if we had any. He was working on chapter 5 on tues.

2/8/2007 1:35:02 PM

has he emailed any recent slides?

and when is next test?

kkthx

2/25/2007 10:35:28 PM

I don't think so, but you can just go to the book's website and get them.

2/25/2007 11:25:46 PM

date of next test?

2/27/2007 10:32:17 AM

i dont think he's announced the next test yet.

2/27/2007 11:54:48 AM

has he given a schedule for the rest of the semester yet? or an idea of the chapter progression, tests, homework, etc??

3/15/2007 8:30:34 AM

he passed out an assignment today. Maybe it's on his site? Homework makes up 20% of our grade.

I believe the next test is two weeks from today and will be on the rest of chapter five through chapter ten-I think.

3/15/2007 8:10:24 PM

test thursday, correct?

3/26/2007 6:41:27 PM

yes, test thursday

3/26/2007 8:09:06 PM

can't this guy give us a study guide or something? I would love for him to teach us something more than reading the "what we're going to cover" and "what we've learned" powerpoint slides. Nice guy, but this is the most ridiculous class I've had at state-or ever, for that matter.

3/27/2007 9:06:39 AM

when is he going to post that homework assignment he was talking about?

4/9/2007 10:59:28 PM

Does anyone know if Reiland is any better?

4/11/2007 1:03:13 PM

i dont know if Reiland is better, but we dont do much of anything or learn much in watson's class

4/11/2007 2:55:18 PM

so yeah, I'm guessing there isn't actually a HW assignment due for class Thursday?

4/11/2007 9:31:14 PM

it was supposed to be due today, but he didnt cover all of the material, so it is due next tuesday the 17th

4/12/2007 8:21:43 AM

i heard it was due thursday????

4/16/2007 10:53:12 PM

yeah your right, it is due thursday. my bad

4/16/2007 11:09:40 PM

phew, thanks for posting that.

4/17/2007 8:03:09 AM

anybody know anything about the final exam?? what chapters is it on??

4/26/2007 5:06:18 PM

where r we going to take the final at??? any info related to final would be really appreciated!!!

4/30/2007 2:17:36 PM

what time is the exam?

5/1/2007 12:08:44 PM

grades are up for those interested. (go to previous semester and type in spring 2007)

5/3/2007 8:31:49 PM

thanks for that

5/3/2007 11:48:33 PM

Does anyone remember what time uploaded grades are visible in past semester grades?

Is it after six in the evening? I can't remember. Thanks!

5/4/2007 9:23:51 AM

my grade is up. I got a B- and a 66 on the final. does anyone know how many points the final was out of, b/c i dont think its a failing grade

5/4/2007 5:37:20 PM

i got a 72 on the final and a's on the homework and a b on the first test... i dont know how i did on the second but i ended up with a C for the course.... im wondering if thats right, unless i just completely messed up on the second exam... and i dont know what the points are out of.
