Professor Baldauf is amazing! He's always smiling or doing something for the school. The class is relatively easy, mainly class projects and assignments.

Ken is the best! Even though it was online him and his TA, Hope, really cared for every student and wanted them to pass. Tons of projects (13) but they're super easy and have follow along videos to finish them but they do take a good 4 hours each about except for 3 which are shorter. Definitely take it!!

I took this course for Summer B (6weeks) and although there was a lot of work, I have never earned an easier grade. Literally got a 100% in the class and all I did was followed his online lecture videos and got full credit for my assignments. His tests are extremely easy. Hard not to get an A in this class. Allows a lot of extra credit

Best class I have probably taken for my major. He is awesome and is willing to help if you need it. He gives you videos step by step how to complete the assignments. You have a lot of time to complete them. He has two exams and they are the questions from the assignment quizzes. You will enjoy this class!

Ken is awesome. He let's you know exactly what he expects and strives to guide you to success in the course. The assignments may be tedious, but he gives ample time to complete them. You'll learn a lot if you actually take your time going through rather than doing them just to get it over with.

Ken is great. I took this course in 6wks, online, over the summer, & he still was one of the most interactive professors I've ever had. I made a Ratemyprofessor account just to make a post about him. You work for the grade, but if you follow his instructions & put in time, you will get an A. Everything I learned was new to me & I got an A.

This class has a pretty heavy workload, but the instructor and TA's are VERY helpful in providing direction and resources. You will learn a lot in the course. Late work is accepted at a 10% daily penalty. Some extra credit is provided.

Baldauf is so awesome! His website is super helpful even in later classes. This was my first coding class and I had NO CLUE what I was doing, but by the end I was set on an IT major.

Easy class to introduce anyone to web design and the world of HTML. Those interested in web design, CS, and IT should definitely consider taking this course. As long as you do the weekly projects(which are very easy as long as you follow the instructions) there is no reason for not getting an A. Also there is barely ever class which is a plus!

Easy A if you aren't as lazy as I am. No class on Fridays (in addition to there barely being class any other day). Just do your assignments and unlimited attempt quizzes at home when you feel like it but BEWARE, turning in assignments late can cost you. Only 2 exams and they were both easy 100s. Deff one of the easier classes i've ever taken.

I liked the lay out of the class. You got an assignment every week which gradually got harder and harder, but nothing to bad. The teacher and the TA were great at help with any problem. The weekly assignment are the meat of the class, mid and final are the quizzes which I find easy so that was nice with the other classes mids and finals going on.

Ken is an amazing professor. He is extremely clear in his instructions and I feel that I learned a lot in the class. It was my first time EVER taking a coding course and i didn't feel lost for even a second. (Although, that one time, when I did, Ken was easy to access and helped me right along)If you're considering taking the course, DO IT!

Comment:

Don't take this class unless you're legitimately interested in learning how to design websites. (Which you should be no matter your major) The directions are crystal clear and help is accessible so as long as you stay up on the weekly assignments you'll be fine. Otherwise you'll have nothing but yourself to blame.

You have to work, but this class is WORTH it with how much you learn! Mr. Baldauf is intelligent, ready to help and quite comical. I would highly recommend him. This was one of the best classes I've ever paid for! The TAs are super helpful as well. If you need to learn codingweb design, you won't regret taking him!

The clearest and most straightforward online class I've taken. From day 1, you will know every assignment and every due date. No tricks. He provides lots of student resources for the class and his TA's are very accessible for help if needed.

I took Baldauf for intro to web design and he was great. I took it as an online class with no prior experience and I got by with an A. The TA's were very helpful and Ken was very clear with directions. The projects are time consuming but it's a fun class and you definitely learn a lot.
