Dr. Lynch is very into his class. He tries but there isn't really a way to make this class interesting. As long as you do the work (which isn't hard) you'll get an A. Don't bother with the text books. Supposed to be a 3 hour class but it always ends at least 45 minutes early. Not amazing but it could definitely be way worse!EDUC4553 2009-12-10 11:38:02 +0000 UTC
He is an intelligent man but should have stopped teaching years ago. He gets very angry if students disagree with him. It was the worst class I have ever taken.ED306 2008-04-20 23:01:23 +0000 UTC
Avoid him if you can! Lynch is by far the worst professor I have ever had. He drones on endlessly, can't stay on topic, and can never answer students' questions (and believe me, you will have questions). Three hours with him feel like three days. Even though you don't learn anything, you still get an A.EDG306 2008-01-03 10:53:19 +0000 UTC
