LING3002 Extended Essay

Professor: The professor you chose

If you do not really like writing a thesis ALL ON YOUR OWN, NEVER choose this course as your capstone course. It would be literally the worst learning experience you can ever have. There are several more enjoyable ones you can choose. There is the field trip one, There is the laboratory one. There are the seminar ones. You may want to know how it is like to be a Mphil or Phd student, but I doubt whether it is worth the pain while you have much better options.

Professor: Fong Wan

方老師的語氣不像其他老師般友善,比較直腸直肚。課程前半部分總會花時間吐槽日研系,或是分享個人生活,後半部分則因為時間不充足而沒有吐槽了。課程有大量堂上或課後功課,只能靠完成功課來改善翻譯出現的問題和提升日語水平。功課和例題都會涉及N2、3的文型和句子,甚至出現少量N1的,對剛讀完2460的同學不太友善。

ACCT3121 Cost and Management Accounting

Shared by Anonymous

2023-01-20

Professor: Chunmei Zhu

Although she read her PPT slides at once, she also tried to explain in detail and incorporate in-class and after-class practice questions which were sufficient for revision purpose. Quite a number of theory questions were asked during mid-term, but almost none in the final. She was also very nice to promise that the final would not be and indeed was not more difficult than mid-term, because of the fact that the mid-term (S.D. = 17/100) was already able to distinguish more and less abler students. All questions' format and items could be prepared just be reading her slides - no need to do extra practice which were of higher difficulty.

ACCT3112 Financial Reporting II

Shared by Anonymous

Professor: Yuqing Zhou

Quite shocking to know that she could not answer difficult questions raised by hard-working students who come from Mainland China. She taught by reading the PPT at once, so it might not be very efficient or beneficial to go to her class. She was relatively lazier compared to other professors from China who in general worked harder in order to teach better.

Good at teaching and he encourages students to participate in the class discussion. He uses many interesting Chinese fables, traditional stories and proverbs to explain the economic theory. (E.g., use 羊毛出在羊身上 to explain the taxation, use 江山易改本性難移 to explain people’s saving preference, use 朝三暮四 to explain Ricardian Equivalence...)

UGEB2161 Resource Issues in the Age of Globalization

Shared by Anonymous

2022-04-14

Professor: Prof Lawal Marafa

DO NOT take this course!!! This professor gives very unclear instructions for the op-ed and often has audio and video problems, i.e., he doesn't optimize the quality for video sharing so the video is always very lagging. The in-class activity is also very confusing as he doesn't give clear instructions and everyone was asking each other what to do when we did the in-class activity the first time. His powerpoint slides are also very hard to read as he uses colors that are very contrasting with the background.

UGEB2161 Resource Issues in the Age of Globalization

Shared by Anonymous

2022-04-14

Professor: Prof. Lawal Marafa

The assessment methods are unclear and chaotic! The in-class activities tend to be responding to questions based on a video. Then, you will be put into a breakout room in a group of 8-12 people for 15 mins. Afterward, one person will submit their answers to the UReply. You will have to figure out how to incorporate ideas from 12 people into one single answer for the UReply submission! The professor often has audio problems when broadcasting the video which makes the video rather difficult to listen to. The instructions for the OP-ED are also unclear and quite contradictory! The PowerPoint is rather disorganized (very 1999), and its designs were very distracting.

Highly do not recommend this professor, his teaching is very unclear and the handwriting in class is hard to read. For the midterm, when he said the midterm was only for chapters 1 to 3, he still included chapter 4 making it confusing for everyone in the test. For the presentation, he said each group had 15 minutes, but in the end, each group only had 10-12 minutes. He would suddenly interrupt you and disrupt your presentation.

I like the content of the course very much, like the case-based approach. Prof. Tsao showed us a lot of information concerning policies of different countries, such as corruption policies of Hong Kong, Macau, and explain the material well. He is knowledgeable and intelligent, always asking stimulating questions during classes.
