Comment:

lies about tests. she got mad at the class because we left after 30 minutes of waiting for her-she made the first test 10 extremely hard essay questions. 2nd test she lied about having t/f and multiple choice. final test (only on chapter 3) was 10 t/f and 8 m/c out of the book open notes. JOKE CLASS don't take if you care about wasting your money

Comment:

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS!!! This teacher is awful. Cancelled class all the time, we only got through 3 chapters!!! Final exam was open book, 10 t/f, 8 m/c.. Assigns busy work but as long as you do all of it, pretty easy A. Most unprofessional teacher I have had in my entire life. Shows up late, if at all. Asks you to wait 30 min for her to arrive.

Comment:

She cancels class once a week it seems. We only got through 3 chapters of the book, and our final was a bs assignment that we sent to her over email. It took about five minutes. It seems like she has no lesson plan or direction and makes things up as she goes along. Assigns busy work, but never grades it or gives it back. Class is a waste of money.

Comment:

she hardly ever came to class, and when she did it was always 15 minutes late. we seriously didnt have class for about a month straight. she talks in circles and doesn't really make much sense. You prety much teach yourself but its really basic stuff anyone with a computer should know. we only got through 3 chapters the entire semester!

Comment:

Class was very easy when we actually had class. Class was canceled for almost half a semester,so she only had time to breeze through 4 chapters! There were 4 super easy lab assignments,3 multiple choice tests,and a term paper. This class was a waste of time, but the easiest A I have ever gotten.

Comment:

The material and her lectures are very boring, and class and lab attendance is mandatory. Other than that, the course is pretty easy. She assigns a research paper on a topic related to "computer security." I didn't read the book and still got at 100 on the first test.

very easy class, I highly recommend. You learn stuff that almost anybody can figure out themselves. Does pick favorites, but that does not affect her grading. I took at night, and we always got out early.

Didn't learn much, but it was an easy A so I'm not complaining. She gave us 3 weeks off to write a 5 page paper that I wrote the weekend before it was due.
