Negative:
Overly difficult tests or assignments
Notes/lecture is confusing
After seeing how he responds to students who disagree with his opinions, I am practically afriad to ever disagree with him. He in no way motivated original thoughts. He led the discussion with his thoughts and opinions and we simply gave meaningless responses in hopes he would be pleased and give us a good participation grade. If you speak up with some that is "wrong" (not on his thought trakc), he responds with a flat "hm. well, not really." then moves on.
