Fall 2018 - just slides basically on how to college/tips and resources, attendance is mandatory (because you're in PEERS), pretty boring, the one thing I remember is to make sure you put your name on all pages of your tests because the TAs might take it apart to grade it quicker, but now they use Gradescope so I don't know if that's still the case (also you often get points for putting your name on all pages)

Great professor.lectures are very interesting and never boring.he shows many interesting videos and honestly it felt like he was telling a story each lecture that was interconnected with each other.He was also very cool and helpful when you spoke to him.Go to his office hours let him get to know you.Submit regrades for tests to get some point because honestly the TAs sucked and their grading was not good since they are looking for key words but if you go over your test with Dr barber and submit regrades then you can get some points back that you lost.you are only allowed to do a regrade for 2 questions but if you go to his office hour,he will go over your whole test and you can kinda get a feel of what question you can get points on.the average for the first test was very low and i feel like it was because it was graded horribly by the TAs .You don't need the book !Take very good notes and watch the lecture on bruincast. Professor barber is not looking for key words he is looking to see if you got the whole concept !the sample tests were not really helpful because they were not like the test and the discussions are mandatory but they are really pointless.I got an A in this class but studied hard and watched all the lecture over again online and completed my notes!!
