Comment:

Easy A!!!! He does a review about 20 questions after each lecture so go to class. If you take pictures of the questions and write the answers down you will pass the 3 tests literally every review questions in class are exactly on the test. That's all I studied I typed the questions up and answers and just study it. Only need the Excel book!!

Comment:

The lectures are packed with a lot of info. Make sure to take note of the questions that he asks during lectures. They will be on tests. Lot of labs. Can be hard to understand at times and he thinks that he is the funniest dude ever. The tests are VERY hard but other assignments are easy enough to keep a good grade.

He's difficult to understand. Rarely answers questions even if most of the class is lost. Constantly asks if you were listening and tells students in the 3-5 rows to move up when all of the computers in the rows in front of them are full. He gives difficult assignments, some of which have content which has not been covered in the class. Google 3

Great guy, He's been teaching in the states for 20 years. He is NOT hard to understand. Business professionals need to learn how to communicate in a diverse environment! Anyway,very lenient grader and wants everyone to succeed. You must learn something and work for your grade. Would definitely take more of his classes. Take Him he wont let you fail

Professor Chung is amazing! I wish he taught every IS class at EMU. I had him for 645 & 650. He provides lecture notes & you know exactly what to expect. He goes out of his way to be available. Both classes had 3 exams, 2 group proj, in class labs+HW. If you put the time and effort you get an A. He is funny and curves all grades:) I learned a ton!

Best thing I can say: If you're a blow-off student, you don't want this class. This guy is for people who are genuinely interested in this class. His exams are tough; but if you read the material, show up to class and apply the material, no reason to score anything less than a B. He has a thick accent, so be prepared, but HIGHLY intelligent.

He is a very nice guy but he is very hard to understand and his tests are very difficult. He thinks class average of 73% on a test is very good.

He is a very good teacher. He is hard to understand at times, and really doesn't like to answer any questions. Labs, HW and report was pretty easy. He also i svery lenient.

Comment:

Sock is the best teacher ever! He likes to talk alot and tell jokes(very funny), but sometimes it's hard to understand him. It's pointless to go to class because he posts his lectures in powerpoint on his webpage. Easy class. I took COB 200 with him as well and got an A too.

Comment:

Really great personality and an earnest guy. As others have noted, the accent is a bit difficult at times. Main problem is total lack of computer skills--watching him try to go through an exercise or illustrate a point is downright painful. Sometimes his easygoing nature seems like it's covering up some condescension.

Sock can be a little difficult to understand because of his accent, but he is a wonderful instructor; he is very patient and willing to talk you through problems so you learn, rather than just give you the answer.

Comment:

He's a laid back person. He likes to talk -- let him. He will always try to answer everything you ask. The ERP class is great for learning the SAP systems. He gives clear instructions. Exams can be tricky but he is generous on the curve. Do the work and you are guaranteed to pass. Lab sessions are required, you must attend.

Graded on 3 MC exams, and a group project. Everyone in his class gets a 70% or higher. Lowest grade is always curved up to a 70% and everyone else gets all the bonus too. Ends class early and teaches off of powerpoint slides, no text required.
