Comment:

I've been writing computer games for a while and took Dussaults Entertainment & Game Computing class thinking it would be insightful and easy enough... but she has no idea what she's talking about! She regurgitates introductory programming fundamentals and then guesses at how they're used in writing games without any actual experience!

Comment:

Very intelligent, easy to understand, and funny. The class isn't difficult, but not too easy either. The homework assignments can be challenging, but they help you learn a lot. The tests are open book as well, which makes things easier. She is very helpful if you're having trouble.

Comment:

Excellent presentation skills. She brings an intensity and knowledge that make for a worthwhile learning experience. Not the easiest class (Java), but programming is hard for me to grasp. A competent professor in a dept. where that's not always a given.

She's got brains. She's highly energetic. She obviously loves teaching. Probably the best teach er in Computer Science at SUNY. Highly technical for a female. Teaches beyond the standards. She's easy to fantasize about.

Gives here class notes on the web, and teaches from them. Which is very boring when sitting in class. Lots of fun, and does make class interesting sometimes. Could improve.

Dussault and Urban don't belong at SUNYIT because they are so different and so much better as teachers than all the other CSC profs.

She's an excellent teacher and explains the material very clearly. Only the deadbeats complain about the class. Oh and she's hot too. She'd be nice in an outfit like Trinity in the Matrix. Grrr!!!

I don't know what the previous student was talking about, but I've known her to take time to help students that aren't even in her class. Excellent teacher.
