Professor Goodwin wants his students to succeed and helps us out whenever he can. That being said this class is VERY writing intensive, with 10 reflection papers and a final paper. There is also way too much reading assigned for each paper, more than the typical college student can handle. He is also a very tough grader for all papers.PHTH4202 2024-04-24 17:32:08 +0000 UTC
Matthew Goodwin is a great guy. It's clear that he respects and cares about his students and wants them to succeed. He makes himself available outside of class to respond to emails and meet one-on-one with students. He has really stood out among many other instructors, who are not as understanding of personal difficulties during COVID-19.HINF5200 2021-02-19 18:42:34 +0000 UTC
Goodwin straight up said he was not qualified to teach this course during one of our classes. Additionally, the "lectures" were really an hour and fifteen minutes of him having a class wide conversation about current events and what was happening for the environment. I did not learn a single thing from this course and felt it was a waste of time.PHI331 2019-06-27 00:37:41 +0000 UTC
Incredible guy. He really knows what he is talking about, more so that any other professor I've ever had at Northeastern. I walked out of class every day knowing more than I did going in. That's more than I can say about a lot of other classes for Health Sci. Majors. Goodwin is however a VERY tough grader on your final paper.HCSI5450 2018-04-11 12:45:00 +0000 UTC
