17.   My overall evaluation of this instructor is....
Don't kill morale.
Professor Johnson is a skilled teacher for a 400 level course, he presents material in a clear and concise manner. Computer Science students would be sorely remissed by not taking Professor Johnson's ICS 414 because ICS 413 was too difficult. The topics and tools covered in ICS 414 will prepare students for real world problems.
Great instructor!
