Comment:

I guess he must have gotten a lot better since some of y'all have had him. Everyone in my class thought he was funny (even if he is a little zany!) and learned a lot! Now I know how to make a website and feel cool about it. I recommend him all the time to freshmen. Good prof.

Comment:

I was worried because of the previous ratings given him but to me it looks like he has really shaped up. Just make sure you read the book and talk to him one on one when you need help at you'll be fine. A hard teacher, but once I got through it I actually felt like I learned it (a nice change of pace). Not for the Lazy.

Better teacher outside of classroom, go and ask for help! He explains everything a lot better one on one.

GREAT PROFESSOR! IF you do you work, you will do great! He TOTALLY goes above and BEYOND for his students! If anyone has a problem, you did not try or talk with him. I sucked at the class work, but he helped me through it! I was totally stressed and had the worst semester ever, & Blanchard was the only Prof I had that seemed to really care! A++!!

Comment:

He's a really nice guy but the class pretty was horrible. I didn't understand it, he didn't explain things very well in ways I can understand them. Unless you're a comp. sci. major, don't take the class. But he is willing to meet with you outside the class to try and help...but for non-computer people, it's a hard class.

Comment:

He's a really nice guy...reeeally bad teacher. Would be better teaching upper division IT classes to students who arent business majors and just trying to learn Excell or Access. Class work completely irrelevant to objectives.

Comment:

Professor Blanchard needs to spend more time preparing lessons and researching his classes. He can't teach real computer science classes, strength lies more in the IT fields.

He is a neat guy, a little scrambled, at times, but aren't we all? He offered help, when needed.

He seems to know his stuff, but he's too cocky/smug for his own good.
