Awful
Homework was barely a reflection of what we actually learned. Speaking with the TAs, they even agreed that some stuff he was teaching was way beyond this course level. Forty percent of the grade came from homework, and with his strict grading it was a guarantee to hurt your GPA.

Awesome
Being disabled, a lot of classes are made a bit more difficult, but he really did manage to accommodate to me. It is very rare that you find teachers like that at WPI. The material covered in the class was very interesting. There were three papers in the class, as well as an individual and group presentation. There was a lot of work at times, but the class was very relaxed. Really an enjoyable class.

Good
I honestly don't get why the ratings are so bad. I did the bare minimum and still got a B. He's very understanding and nice. You just really have to try and do the hw. You'll do fine!

I really enjoyed taking this class with Cuneo since he is so polite and patient, and his lectures cover almost all you need to know. He also provides highly clear homework rubrics that outline exactly what you need to complete in order to get a decent score.

Professor Cuneo is such a great one. He's great in giving lectures and actual codes in the classroom, while explaining concepts. Even if the homework is quite long and time-consuming, you'll learn a lot from it. This was my first Computer Science class, that I felt I learned a lot. Just go to class and google things, then you'll be fine.

Joshua
Cuneo
Hopkinton, Massachusetts
I'm looking to bring my computer science background to areas of scientific and scholastic inquiry, technological progress, and education. In addition to computer science, I have experience in film and digital media studies, including teaching and research in these areas. Interests include astronomy and space exploration, media production, information visualization, digital archiving, software engineering, web development, and education. I'm also interested in the intersection of art, science, and technology and how they can be used to enhance one another. I also have some background in physics, video production and science fiction studies. Overall, I'm eager to make a difference and to find a way to make this world a better place.
Experience
Worcester Polytechnic Institute
Instructor of Computer Science
I'm currently teaching the following classes:
- CS 4731, Computer Graphics, which teaches GPU programming and graphics rendering concepts

Joshua worked at 7Factor Software as a Director of Training & Education
Georgia Gwinnett College
Instructor of Information Technology
I taught Computational Graphics and Multimedia (ITEC 3450) which helps students become proficient with programming-based graphics creation and manipulation. I also taught Introduction to Computing (ITEC 1001), which helps students become computer literate, and Digital Media (ITEC 2110), which introduces students to the theory and practices of digital multimedia.
I worked with the Internationalized Learning Program (ILP), finding ways to integrate global awareness into the IT curriculum. I also sat on the campus Sustainability Committee, working to bring greener policies and practices to the campus community.Gypsum Management and Supply
Information Technology Specialist
I performed database administration and integration and developed software to streamline multiple business processes, improving corporate logistical efficiency. Projects included development of a database software interface for handheld barcode scanners, creation of an XML parser to read invoices into the corporate database, and automation of rote administrative tasks.
FIRST
I assist with the FIRST Lego League competition in Georgia at the regional, super-regional (Gwinnett), and state levels. My primary role is as a project judge, where I evaluate student proposals for technology-based solutions to global problems. I also assist with robot design judging, where I critique both the engineering principles of the team's robot and the ability of the team to communicate those skills effectively.
Dragon Con, Inc
I work with the videography team to capture and edit the convention for archival and promotional purposes. I also work with DragonCon TV to produce satire of modern art and culture for commentary and entertainment.
Technology Student Association
I assisted with judging student video game and animation submissions, evaluating them on user experience, production values, and overall professionalism.
