Comment:

This class is definitely more challenging than it has to be. I would not take the class again just due to the density of the work. The tests and quizzes are very challenging so if you have a better option for the same course, I would go that route. Not quite a 1/5 in my opinion but not much better either.

Comment:

She turns an easy class into hard work. I had to take this course twice. I failed it the first time because of my group project. Apparently we should have met more often, we had to submit pictures together. That is impossible with full time jobs and families and school. She also give really tedious papers, tests and labs. Nothing like the book.

Comment:

I took this class online and it was ridiculously hard. For all quizzes and tests you have to use lockdown browser. Professor lets you use notes, however it is useless since the quizzes and tests are nothing like the homework/lectures. It's never clear what you are being tested on. Professor is also a tough grader (even with discussion boards!!!).

Comment:

Save yourself the headache. She turns an easy A class into a giant pain, for no reason. Super lengthy, repetitive, and convoluted instructions that still leave you with so many questions. Slow grader. Lots of busy work. Test questions come from textbook question bank, making it difficult to know where to concentrate your efforts. Not worth it

This class is a joke there are tests that are timed they let you use notes but its only a limited time on test that is about a min a question. The homework is everyday stuff to do. There are 2 papers. Discussions and Excel work. Final is comprehensive and NO NOTES. I would not take this professor its a lead instructor model. took online.

Comment:

The professor obviously takes this class too seriously. The book and the lab have nothing to do with each other the lab is all Microsoft and the book is workplace etiquette. All of the test are using lockdown browser with a camera which is plain ridiculous. The final has to be taken at a proctored site, (stupid) why not lockdown browser again?

First time taking her class, overall it was well structure. Hw and assignments were fair, I just wish she could gives credit on "self quizzes" and not use Lockdown browser for everything. I plan to take other class with this professor

This is the 2nd time I've taken this class. 1st time I took it online (BIGGEST MISTAKE), 2nd time did in person which was pretty worthless since EVERYTHING is online. The professor literally reads the online instructions to you.. Pointless. I learned NOTHING. Not to mention the tests don't match the book or previous assignments. HARDEST class ever!

Im not sure where the first good reviews come from. This class was extremely hard. Also professor isn't active at all. My grade was at a D then the last day it was switched to failing. All the quizzes and test were lockdown browsers. (Its not that serious!!!) test i get but practice quizzes. Just look somewhere else.

ALL tests, quizzes and even PRACTICE quizzes are on lockdown browser with camera, and thats ridiculous. Forget everything you've read here, this professor isnt easy and she and the instructor Yiy-Yaw make you work for your grade, you miss work, you get a zero, I am glad I'm done with it, they expect people to major in MIS which is downgrading...

Took her for winter mini. She is quite responsive and friendly in her repsonses. Easy grader and gives 100's away freely on projects and assignments. Course consists of: 2 exams (proctored & no resources), 1 final, 1 easy team project, written letter, a handful of easy discussions, 4 ITLAB assignments, and a few easy dozen MISlab assignments.

Comment:

It is a easy A but its a lot of online lab work just work ahead, for the final you have to go to campus and take the test which was open book I learned a lot of new stuff using word, powerpoint and excel. I did not like having to work in a group for final project, volunteer to be the team captain to make sure it gets done right.

5 week summer course. 4 assignments with tests every week. Easy class with open book/notes tests and exam is not comprehensive with open book/notes. Would recommend taking in the Summer. Realistic criteria with manageable work.

Summer course: 2 test, 4 Microsoft projects (Excel, Visio, & Project), and final. Probably the easiest upper level MIS course at UHD. Test are open book open notes, including the final. I wish I would've taken the class more seriously as this relates to my career path.

Professor Hashemi will work with the students to ensure a good grade. Lots of assignments, but they are easy if you follow her instructions which are very clear. Replies to emails quickly and gives helpful feedback.

This professor was great! This is a senior level class so, of course there is going to be a lot of work. Our system is basically the semester long project in groups of 3-4(she assigns groups). She is great at answering questions and responds quickly. Make sure you get started early on the project, it is a lot of work! Make sure you follow the SDLC!

Comment:

Was supposed to be an easy class (required by UHD) to help with online learning. It was so complicated because the teacher was very ambiguous in what was expected. When final grades came in, she had not even graded %30 of my work required for my grade! It was a disaster! Don't take her!
