Online exams but the final was in class. He gave the study guide a week before so it wasnt too bad. The group project was pretty easy at least for my group.

I took this class online and it wasn't hard. Tests are really tough but if you know how to use your resources ;) to your advantage, you'll be fine. Save all your homework, its helpful on the test. Final is in class but he gives you all the questions a week ahead. It is a decent amount of work, but it isn't very hard to make an A.

Mr. King is a grader, not a teacher. If you expect to learn something, be prepared to teach yourself. Poor decision taking this class as an alternative for an IS course

An online class that meets in person for the final. Okay, I can kinda understand that. But an online class with a group project? There was little organization.

I took this class online and it was easy. The tests can be hard but only because there is a time limit. Outline the chapters before you take the test and you should be fine. I was worried about the final because it is in class, but he gives you a study guide a few days ahead of time and the questions come straight off of the study guide.

The only reason the tests are tough because you have 45 minutes to take, you will have about 35 or so multiple choice questions and 2 or 3 essay questions. The group project is not that bad, my group made a 100. You will not get feedback on the quizzes you take to know what you missed. The final exam was not bad, you had to really study the essays

If you're doing the class online, get ready for super time-crunched tests. He grades fairly though, and is quick to respond to E-mails. Group project is a breeze, even if you don't meet in person (get the groupme app to communicate) Rally all i have negative to say is I wish the exams online were even just 10 minutes longer. You use the whole book.

all of his tests are online which is easy bc you can just look them up but its a short time limit so google fast. the hw you have to do them but it only takes a day to finish. you have to use the book to answer the questions. but the final is in class. who does that? and it's fill in the blank type of questions. you will have 1 group proj. easy!

Comment:

This class should be so easy, but his tests are impossible due to time limits. I am probably going to make a B even though I feel prepared for every test. You do get to take the tests online and never have to go to class.

Comment:

HORRIBLE! He's arrogant & thinks he's teaching a 400 level course. He sucks & flies through PPs. Test reviews are pg #s to read which about amounts to 3 chs & you have to print the PP out & read them yourself. His tests are very tricky & I felt that there was more than 1 correct answer to some ?s. He'll make you feel stupid & is NO HELP AT ALL

Comment:

Took this as an online course. Tests are hard...not because of material, but because you only get 40 minutes to answer 40 MC and 2-3 short answers. I think he is the only teacher to teach the course, but if possible, AVOID!! Maybe he is different in class, but online it's hard because of time limit. Material is straight from the book.

Comment:

He's so funny! His tests were hard BUT he let us use our notes and textbook. He tells you which pages to read for the exam, so just make an outline of those pages and bring to the exam & you'll get an A! He plays youtube videos before class & he knows all the words to all the songs! take him ONLY if he lets you use your notes on the exams!

I took the hybrid and ended up with a 105 in the class. The essay questions on the tests were straight from the homework and the MC questions were definitions from the chapters. Didn't do anything in class, just show up and get bonus points. With a little reading it is an Easy A.

I did not have to email at all. he pretty much explains to you in the emails what he expects. the exams are fairly tough but are pretty straightforward.

Take this class online don't do the hybrid. He has essay questions on his exam that are kinda hard if you have to do them in class, for obvious reasons test are easier online. He does curve and you do need the book you will have to read probably 75% of it.

Took this class online. Very organized and straight forward. Professor King responds quickly and I haven't had any difficulty in this class. If you read the chapters you will do well because all of the tests, homework questions and assignments come from the material. Prof King provides info on how to study for the exams. Recommended.

Comment:

He is the worst professor I have come across at South Alabama. His classes are a downer. He makes you feel stupid in your answers on the subject matter for the day. Its best to go to class not answer any questions and read the text for the exams. He will not teach you a thing while in class. Very disappointed.

Prof King is not the best teacher, but he isn't the worst either. The subject matter tends to be boring, but he does give class time for reports.

Comment:

He is nice, but his class is awful. He teaches from powerpoint and it is boring and hard to comprenhend, because too much vocabulary to learn. I hate the short essay answers from his tests.. they are very difficult. Need to study very hard for his tests in order to get an A.
