Easy course for the requirement as an Early Childhood Education major. Although the early time is not pleasant, he is a very nice professor that is always willing to help you. Lots of projects, but not much difficulty whatsoever.

Easy course, great professor. Little redundant, but easy and Prof. Rizzo will go to great lengths to help out a struggling student... lots of time to do projects within class, and there really is no reason not to take this course.

Comment:

Class is essentially instruction and experimentation with Web 2.0 gagets and other software such as Moviemaker and the Microsoft Suite. Be sure to check the rubrics before handing in assignments. A great way to start your day at 8am.

definitely take rizzo for tech. i've heard a lot of other kids that had different professors complaining about how hard this class was- only like 4 assignments all year (easy ones too), no final, no textbook, no midterm. He's a really nice guy & as long as you show up its an easy A

Comment:

Take this class from Rizzo. No Textbook, no final exam. All projects are in class. Only maybe 2 ten minute assignments outside of class. He says that "[he is] bad with due dates" and means that there is no actual due dates. He is very nice and caring of every student.

Comment:

Great teacher. Very compassionate and always looking to help the students do better. He encourages and supports them however you do work hard. He describes himself as "the guide on the side" which means that he leads us through what we have to know to learn and to keep on learning. I enjoyhed his class and, eventually learned to enjoy the presentat

He is a good teacher, but what makes the class great is there is so much time to do work. There seems to be a lot of assignments, but there really isn't. Overall, someone who is helpful and knowledgeable about computers.

Very good teacher..... lots of presentations though and a lot of work. Very easy to get through. Sometimes his instructions can be a little unclear, but he is very easy to approach about anything you need!

Very easy to approach and all around nice guy. Prepare to do presentations, but after a while you get used to it and will help you with your public speaking. Covered a lot of stuff in one semester.

He taught us to be independent and to find our own answers. We worked hard but I think we learned a lot. Covered a ton of material in one semester.
