Comment:
Most of what he says is wrong or a lie. He is so far out of "what's in" that he still talks about companies that died 8 years ago as "up and coming technology." He is totally clueless when it comes to IT. I can't say don't take him because there's no lternatives for some classes, but do not come to Penn Colleg for IT. You won't learn anything.

Comment:
Vonda is a great professor. He is nearing retirement but if you have the chance to take him do it, you will not regret it. While his teaching method is the same as every other professor, he actually CARES about students and will do anything to help you pass the class and learn the material. Great guy. Take him.

Either go 2 class and copy his programs, or skip and type them on your own. Waste a lot of paper printing out the assignments. Over all you don't learn much, but I wont complain as long I get a good grade. I will definitely take him again.

First of all, you are paying to learn. This teacher will give you your moneys worth. So, if you do not get enough sleep at night & fall asleep in his class, it is not his fault. (Now that that's said)Vonada is a great teacher, he is also a vietnam vet. You should respect him. He respects you.

What a waste of money! This class and Professor Vonada are completely worthless. You will not learn anything! To get an A, simply type strait from the projector and then waste tons of paper printing out useless programs.

Vonada doesn't know anything about the material covered in this class. He specifically told our class that he doesn't know the material. The only way to learn from with Vonada is to read the book and use internet resources to supplement the book.

Prof. Vonada is very easy to get along with and will try to help you get as much as you can out of the class as you can. He knows the I-series (AS/400) as well as scotty knew the Enterprise. Awesome teacher.
