Reviews for Pamela A. Abshire
Average Rating:| JZhou Course: ENEE419A Grade Expected: A January 11, 2012, 7:16 am | I believe she taught this course very well. She assigns comprehensive homeworks that would require a lot of time to complete, fortunately, she makes herself available to students almost everyday for questions relating to homeworks and projects. The tests are fairly straight forward. The average on our first midterm was in the low 70s, and the average on the final was also in the 70s. The only problem I have with this class is that she would sometimes go over slides too quickly, and this would result in learning the material on your own through the book (not the easiest read). Overall, I recommend taking this course if you enjoy topics in microelectronics/Integrated circuits. |

Prof. Abshire's a very good lecturer, and she tries very hard to make herself available to students with questions about the course material. The only slightly negative thing about her is that she will sometimes go a little fast through her Power Point slides. If you are ever unclear on something, or just want to stall so you can grasp the concept she just presented, just ask her a question. She usually gives really good explanations, and this will slow the pace of the class. Moreover, she happens to be a really nice person and her research is really cool, so if you ever want to do a 499 with someone, I would definitely recommend her over most other professors. |
