Good
Dr. Cook's is an easy class as long as you follow directions and complete the projects. He is really interesting and he knows what he is talking about. His projects cover exactly the material but you must do the projects exactly as per his instructions.
Awful
I recommend that you avoid taking Professor Cook. You have to teach yourself in order to do well, because he doesn't do lectures, he just tells stories. He is unreliable when it comes to emails, he might get back to you once out of ten emails. When he graded several of my tests he marked them at least 15 points off, so I would constantly have to go to his office during office hours to get him to fix them.
