Tufts University: Peter Staab - Mathematics - Professor ratings, reviews and much more | JumboAccess
Review:
Be prepared for an unprepared and confusing professor, he wants his students to understand but is unable to teach in a way that makes that possible. Lectures were often unclear and filled with errors. Large steps of example problems were often cut out, which Staab felt was an effort to make things easier for his students but instead it made his lectures more difficult to follow. The class fell into dangerous cycle where more than half of the class was spent answering homework questions from the night before, which left very little time to learn new material, and thus more questions the next day.
Workload:
The workload should be similar to that of other Math 13 classes, but because of the professor it ended up being much more work than students in other sections. Unfinished lectures left material that students had to teach themselves in order to do well on the exams. Homework every night, 3 tests and one final, same as the rest of the calculus series.
