Past student reviews · Benjamin Spike
Benjamin Spike’s lectures were described as clear and concise by some, but monotone or confusing by others. Students noted he was kind and fair, though the class structure was sometimes disorganized with poor communication about grades. Exams were generally difficult, with one reviewer noting that showing work did not earn points. Several students recommended using the help desk, pre-class videos, or PLCs to succeed in the course.
