Prof. Rand


 * 1) 1 - I think part of the reason that the concepts were often unclear to me was that my professor was not clear at all in his explanations. I don’t know if it was the way he worded things or the frequent distraction of him pronouncing “beta” as “beeta,” but I found that I learned very little from lecture. We did these group reviews before each exam and one of the questions was “what range of frequencies does this pulse of period T hold?” where T was just a single number. Our group spent forever debating how to extract a range of numbers (the frequencies) from just a single number (the period) until we finally asked professor Rand and he said he was actually only looking for one number. I felt like the whole class kind of went like that where professor Rand thought he was explaining something clearly while we were all thinking we were missing something.
