Great prof, explains all concepts extremely clearly and straightforward. His coursepack is a life saver with tons of examples and concepts explained throughout each chapter. His cartoons at the beginning of each class are quite funny. I would definitely recommend him.

His coursepack is fantastic, and he's more helpful than any other professor I've had at UVic. His lectures are repetitive, but that's something I could use more of in my other classes - thorough explanations!

Talks at lightning speed and is very quiet, so it's a bit hard to follow unless you're paying attention and the room is quiet. Sit near the front if you really want to listen. I only went to about 3 classes and got a B - the coursepack is worth it's weight in gold, read it.

Really good Prof. He really cares about his students and does everything to help them. His coursepack is the best! Also, it doesn't cost 100's of dollars to buy. Classes can get a little repetitive at times, but that's just because you understand the material. His comics at the beginning are funny and there are a few laughs during class too.

Adams is a good professor with an excellent course pack for the class. You can learn using just that as his lectures aren't great. However, his assignments are very fair, and if you understand them you will do just fine on the midterm and final.

Dr. Adams is a very helpful professor who's ultimate goal (for the class) is to make sure everybody understands the material. Unfortunately, he'll repeat the same thing over and over again until you don't want to hear it. Tests and assignments are very fair and a good gauge.

Uses a coursepack as the textbook (Written by him). Classes can drag on sometimes, but most information is presented in a straightforward manner.

Dr. Adams is a great prof and knows his stuff. His course notes are excellent. He is always willing to help students out. Study his course notes well and you'll do well on the midterm. The midterm is easier than the final so make up your marks there.

Without questions, Dr. Michael Adams is one of the most outstanding profs in UVic. he made excellent coursepack and made up systematic approachs to solve every problem. he cares about whether students following his material. tests are fair and straightfoward. however, if he could slow down his rate of speaking in the lectures would be excellent.

I thought this class was a waste of time UNTIL I got to third year. It turns out everything we did in this class is used again in third year, and that his Coursepack is more useful than the third year DSP book. This guy deserves a big pat on the back.
ELEC255
He is the most helpful teacher I have had. Always willing to go over a subject with you anytime. You just have to ask! The coursepack that he wrote is superb. It has everything you need to know in there. Make sure you understand everything though. Do NOT buy the optional text. It is useless.

Professor Adams is a swell guy. His course is dead boring, but he can't be responsible for that. Plus you don't have to buy a $150 textbook for this course, so that's nice too. I think in most cases, you don't have a choice to take his courses with another prof, so you're wasting your time here. :P

Dr. Adams is an amazing professor. He knows the subject material quite well, and cares greatly about how his students understand. Very helpful when students ask questions in class, after class and at office hours. He is a very nice professor and will help in any way he can. His classes are rewarding!
Elec 260
He's a good guy. It's just that the material is very boring. You can get through his class just by using his notes (which is awsome).
Elec 260
Excellent Prof. Lecture notes are great best purchase I have every made from the bookstore. Text is not useful in the slightely bit (DON'T buy it!) Very down to earth prof who cares about this students.

I find myself learning everything on my own. Flat out lied to me at the beginning of the semester about how much calculus is involved. "not really much calculus... you just need to know what an integral is". Yeah right.
