Unprepared before lectures. He started drawing a circuit on the board once and after 10 minutes of scribbling he gave up and said "shoulda made it into a slide". Kinda sums up his teaching style. I duked it out with him once in class because of how incomprehensible he was. I regret not having complained about him. worst prof. worst grade I ever got
CS3350
if Webber was a piece of toast. He would be the worst piece of toast the world has ever seen

It was many years ago. But still now in my mid 30s I am reminded what an awful, god awful, horrible teacher this guy was. Some migh try and make a connection that he's a pre-madonna and SINCE he was twit that he MUST know what he's talking about. Sadly, he did not. Not only was he an insufferable old coot he had a poor grasp of his course.
CS350
What on earth is he talking about!? It's impossible to figure out what's going on in this class about 90% of the time. It doesn't help that we have to use a very cryptic circuit simulator he wrote himself, and don't have a real textbook OR online notes. He wants to be helpful, but can't communicate. Most stressful course I've ever taken.

Good course, good prof. Nice guy, always has interesting anecdotes. Assignments were fun (code breaking) and relatively easy once you got the idea.
CS350
Guess I'm going against the grain here. I got over 90% in his course. It's hard and he's not the greatest at conveying information. However, he is a very nice guy if you actually go to his office and talk to him, and he is willing to help you. You're in 3rd year Comp Sci. Other profs have babied you up to this point. Webber won't do that.
CS350
It's too bad he's too paranoid to use the web, I'd have loved for him to read the other comments!
CS350
Predicted that the internet would come to a stop because of insecurities in PDF files... Wrote a terribly buggy, slow unbelievable mess of an application for emulating hardware, forced class to use it for every assignment. Avoid this guy like Black Death.
CS350
I can't think of enough bad things to say about this retard. He forces you to do completely random**** on the exams like encode your answers in base 8 and then take mod 5 of that and put that number on your scantron. He's an ****. And his course, while having assignments, were not required to be handed in until the last day. A complete ****.
cs350
horrible course, horrible professor. is there any word worse than horrible? Rediculous amount of workload, fkin GD hard exam, meaningless lecture. someone please take him back to outspace where he should belongs too.
CS350
Rediculous use of scantron sheets. 6 sheets for a single 20-question exam! Unbelieveable. Also docked my final mark 3% for putting my name in the wrong place on a test. I put my name where it said "name"... my mistake. Refused to reverse it. Got special permission to continue in Honors because this guy is totally unreasonable. AVOID AT ALL COST
CS346
Just read below, it pretty much sums it up. Except for the fact that he is the meanest person I've ever had as a professor.
Cs 357
He just seems unintrested in his topic and his evaluation methods leave much to be desired. Rather then assignments we wrote AIs to play tictactow. Our grade then became our placment in the tournements. Thus regardless of functionality no matter what there were always people failing assignments.
CS350
His way of teaching is really boring. Needs to put more time on each of the topics instead of just rushing through all the notes. Logic is something that needs to be developed through time. His laugh is funny too, he always stop in the middle of his laugh in case nobody else in the class laughs.
CS350
Interesting class. The assignments made absolutely no sense whatsoever. I do like him picking office hours by scantron. And now that class is mandatory to get a degree. I feel so sorry for everyone who takes that class.
CS350
I hate this class. Especially when Weber is teaching. Please someone vote him off the island.
