Comment:

The class was pretty dull, but she's a fair grader and a nice person. The quizzes are pretty easy, the final was a bit harder. Her powerpoints are very informative and she puts them online, I used them to study more than from the book. Don't expect an exciting class, but she's fairly easygoing and always willing to help if you ask.

Comment:

She just taught the methods and properties of the base classes available in .NET and could be replaced by the MSDN reference library. It's not her fault that the program sucks - but to the below rater, why is a person with a Math Degree teaching VeeBee?

Comment:

She is alright as a lecture instructor. But as for a lab instructor, she is terrible. 45 out of 50 people are failing at this point. I don't recommend that you take the class if she is your lab instructor.

Comment:

You had to come to class and do crossword puzzles in order to receive credit for attendance (i think). The tests were hard, since i did not buy the book but i got a B in the class. her lectures are very long and very dry. she knows what she's talking about. just get the info at the test review and you should do ok.

Comment:

Though she does like to lecture, she is very knowledgeable. She has a degree in Mathematics, and you can tell that from the algorithms she puts forth. Always fair and always willing to help you. A great teacher.

Comment:

One of the few instructors who understands your question and answers the question you asked. Very clear and matter-of-fact lectures. Doesn't waste time. Not too sympathetic if you have technical problems during an exam. Also sprung a group project on us that was not on the syllabus, since she couldn't find a lab to administer the scheduled exam.

VERY boring. Every single class she literally stood at the front of the room and talked, and talked, and talked. I don't think anyone in my class could stay awake.

great teacher, great teaching skills, nice person ... the big problem is i've seen aprox 2 people in every one of her class awake. everbody else is asleep. she needs to liven the class up a bit. it tends to become very boring!

She is one of the best instructor's I've had at Temple. She is incredible clear and informative. She is also really helpful. You gotta keep up with the work- don't slack, but it's a really course

The subjects she teaches are hard for most people that have a habit of not working hard. If you work hard in 209 you will be rewarded, if not you will fail.

Comment:

Don't listen to the other people, class will be difficult if you skip classes. If you show, its an easy A,no studying. Shes good teacher, covers important and USEFUL things like making programs interact with a database. IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT CHANGE MAJORS!

Comment:

I would NEVER take her again. First, she started teaching what we already knew from CIS 81. Then, she taught things unrelated to the labs. After that, I started going for only the tests (which I've been doing quite alright on).
