Dr Rich like to mushroom projects. It is one thing when assigned, a lager project a week later, and a still larger project by the time it is due to be turned in. Very unclear about the specifications of every project she has assigned.
Dr. Rich piles on the work. Redundency rules in her assignments. You have to say the same thing over and over many different ways. You must follow her outline always, you own thoughts are not necessary. Plus, assignments are moving targets in her class.
Total problem. She is mad at the world for her position or something. She want's as much fluff as possible. Quality doesn't count, only Quanity.
I don't care what anybody else says, Dr. Rich has made a difference in my life and career. I've worked in the computer industry for 15 years; Dr. Rich made me FINALLYY understand WHY I was doing it. She brought that point home through the projects she assigned. Thanks, Dr. Rich!
She is a great person and goes out of her way to help students.
Dr. Rich is an awesome professor. She wants to make sure everyone understands the lectures. Easy assignments and enjoyable class.
I have worked with computers for 20 years. This person knows very little about computers. Would make a much better high school English teacher. Worthless as a computer teacher
Really enjoyed the discussions and the assignments that we did in the class. Dr. Rich was always helpful and quick to respond to questions. I would highly recommend taking Dr. Rich for any computer classes.
WONDERFUL PERSON ! JOY TO HAVE
I really appreciated Ms. Rich. She is really helpful and interested in what the students think. She gives several opportunities to make up work and extra credit. She does expect you to do your work and complete it ontime but it is nothing that is to difficult or time consuming. If you have to take this class for a major I would recommend her.Online
I will never take this professor again. She is horrible. She is constantly changing the assignments for the course throughout the semester. You don't know what to expect. This professor is very difficult to communicate with. Take this course from another professor and stay far away from this one.
Dr. Rich is an excellent instructor. She was very organized and all of the assignments & tests were open from day 1. It was a true blessing having a course that you could work at your on pace on. The assignments were not hard. Dr. Rich was very, very helpful and was quick and easy to communicate with. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER CLASS. My class was DL.
This teacher assigend way to much work. When you did the work assigend she did not give you all the details. She is not very helpful in class and will get smart with you an embarras you. Avoid her!!!!
Dr. Rich is not an easy Professor, but is definately one worth taking. If you like a challenge and want to actually learn during your college experience, then I highly suggest you take her classes. I have had her for another course and it was difficult as well. She is fair with her grading process.
The assignments change frequently. The assignment details are extremely lacking. She piles on redundant work. Good luck actually scheduling an appointment with her, she will cancel or forget.
This teacher is by far the WORST. I am totally even rethinking my degree because she basically teaches all ISM classes.She doesn't clarify what she wants,she adds extra REDUNDANT work, and almost half of the class has dropped because of the fact her assignments aren't clear, neither is her grading.
Dr. Rich is a great teacher and really cares about her students. There is alot of work though. The work in one of her classes is equivalent to all the work in any 4 other classes combined, but it is a class where you will learn so much. When you start to work, you will actually use what you learned in class.
Great teacher!! She truly cares about teaching the class about MIS. She was caring and understanding when it came to class assignemnts. I would recommened this teaacher for MIS.
Email, email, email. I took this class on campus and you better keep up with emails from her. The course assignments and due dates are constantly changing. Assignments are not clear at all. One of the worst teachers I have ever had.
Prof Rich had all of her information organized online and had clear explanation of what was required. She would remind us of the due date and responded to any questions withing a day when posted in or group DB.
had a short research paper and a .ppt narrated presentation to create; couple of DB; graded assignments quickly and gave good feedback. Communicated with the class frequently!!
She is a great teacher and the class is pretty easy to get an A in as long as you do your work. Everything is done through an external program with videos, it is kind of like taking a science with a lab. You have a short paper, a PowerPoint. and a couple exams.
I really enjoyed this class with Dr. Rich. It was a tough class but doable as long as you kept up with the assignments.
I took MG302 with Dr. Rich online and I didn't have any problems with the class. The syllabus and schedule were completely clear and she even extended the due dates in Mindtap because a lot of students in the class were having technical problems with it. She was always ready to help with problems, and I would recommend her class!
This class was wonderful. It was not very difficult. If you do your assignments there is no way of failing. Instructor is very very caring and understanding. Defiantly would take her again!
I had to complete a paper on IBM's Watson along with a PowerPoint presentations. By far the most interesting thing I have completed in college. Dr. Rich is really nice and I could tell she cared about her students passing, although the class was taken through distance education. I give Dr. Rich an A+!!!
I enjoyed taking her class. She has a quick response time and she gives you all the assignments and due dates so that you can work at your own pace. She is a great teacher.
Dr. Rich provided many helpful tools and resources.
The Professor was great but the on-line software was unreliable and should be redesigned.
Super great teacher! A lot of work but she gives you a lot of time to complete it! I would take her again.
Great teacher, lets you do work at your own pace but still expects you to do the work well and in full. Gives good feedback and answers questions when you have them. Overall great class and teacher.
Moderate amount of homework, must do the assignments to understand the projects.
She was very helpful. I took her online class and she mad sure to keep us on track and sent e-mails to remind us of upcoming due dates.
This is a great class. The most important thing is that you keep current and don't get behind with the required homework and assignments. The textbook is online.
Be prepared to spend A LOT of time with this class. I work full time and took 2 other classes online along with this one. I had to let assigments go to the last minute in the other 2 classes just to stay current with this class. Dr. Rich does communicate with the class, more than my other two professors.
Effective communication and good feedback. Great professor.
Good teacher!
I am happy that I chose to take Dr. Rich. She was a fair professor. She was caring and wants her students to do well. If I ever had any questions all I had to do was contact her. I hope to be able to take her in the future.
I really thought Dr. Rich was a good professor. Very quick with the response time and gave quality feedback on assignments. The course work was well laid out. The students knew exactly what was expected of them.
lots of work decent test, project kinda confusing for me anyways.
This class was exciting and always has you engaged with real world topics. I enjoyed it thoroughly, and hope to take another course with Dr. Rich in the future. She is a gem.
Took her class because it was mandatory, but most of the things we learned I grew up knowing. It was review for me and I didn't really need the book. If you are technology savy I wouldn't see you needing it either just the code.
Very quick to respond to questions. Took this as an online class and there is alot of busy work but nothing was a waste of time, it all helped prepare for the final project
She is a teacher that wants the best for you! As long as you do the work, she will assist you in any way possible!
Dr. Rich is VERY fair and a true delight. she is willing to go the extra mile if the student is. HIGHLY recommend her!!!
Very good teach. Lots of work!
Really enjoyed this class! Being new to online classes and a organizer, this class was extremely organized and Dr. Rich was extremely helpful!
This course was very hard for me, but I learned a lot.
Great instructor. Very concerned about students. Fast response emails.
Dr. Rich is always willing to help if you are willing to do the work. During the semester she provided many additional resources I found very helpful with our assignments.
This was an online class (SAM) with little instructor involvement. Could wish instructor was a little more prepared to guide students through technical difficulties when dealing with 3-rd party websites.
I learned many things in this class. It is important to stay up to date and not fall behind on the work.
Dr. Rich offer feedback for her grading system which helps me to beware on future assignments.
Dr. Rich's class was well laid out and the work was on par with the class's requirements.
This course had some tech issues, but the instructor was very forgiving for that reason.
Was not very clear with what she wanted. Had to ask several questions and it was very confusing.
I swish there was an actual, physical textbook. There is so much information to remember from going through the modules in Mindtap, and it is absolutely too much paper to print.
Dr. Rich was very clear on her grading criteria. She was very responsive in answering questions, and very helpful through some of the technical difficulties that were thrid-party issues.
Dr. Rich is a great teacher. I have had her for two different classes so far and would take her again. She gives great feedback. She is quick to respond to students/emails. She explains the work well. Both classes have helped me in my workplace.
Professor was very nice, but class was somewhat difficult for me. The homework is fairly easy, tests allow 3 times each on each question, but projects were tricky.
Awesome
Awesome.
You have to apply yourself to do well in this class so you do not fall behind. Dr. Rich has a great schedule of due dates for you to reference to. She is a fast grader, and always writes you feedback on assignments. I would enjoy taking another class with her in the future.
The outline and course criteria were easily understood from the start. Any questions or issues I had were answered on the discussion boards.
DR Rich is very smart and nice teacher,she always has a quick feedback, the course is clear and easy to understand,she cares about her students. i really recommend this teacher because she definitely one of the best teachers.i would love take her again in others classes.
Elizabeth Rich is a great professor. She is an inspiring person.
All done in another website, SAM. It's tedious work, but it's not hard. She lets you work ahead which is great.
Professor Rich was a great educator and I look forward to having her as my professor in future classes. She doesn't make the work to hard but hard enough that you learn something
Lots of work, but you can work ahead. Most work is done in a separate program that failed this semester.(not her fault) You have to do the work for your grade. She is helpful and responds to emails fast. Overall good class.
Dr. Rich is a great professor and I look forward to taking more classes with her as the professor. She definitely makes you work hard .You do have to apply yourself but you do learn a lot. I had a great experience this semester.
Gives a lot of homework but most is for extra credit.
The course has a lot of Modules that have to be completed. The larger paper and projects fit nicely with the work and make sense as assignments. They are also easier to complete because you use pieces of each to complete each other. Dr. Rich is very helpful with any questions, but everything is outlined well.
This was an online class and was very well organized.
I just recently took MG 302 and although it was alot of busy work the information given is very valuable! I look forward to taking more classes in this area
Dr. Rich has been a great help during the Fall 2016 semester MG302 class. She is very hands on and has been a great help when issues arise with the online class.
I've been out of school for a decade and had no problems completing the work in time and understanding the instruction methods used. I learn more about technology and enjoyed the class. I think Dr. Rich was fair with her grading and provided quick response to students questions through the open forum or emails.
Dr. Rich is very quick to respond and help fix problems associated with online classes. She is fair and you can tell she values her students and their success. I found the class work very difficult.
Took internet class under her. Workload was manageable, even though I work 60+ hours a week. If I had a problem, I could email her and get a quick response.
This instructor is exactly what one should hope for when taking an online course. Because online students do not attend class we must communicate through email. This instructor usually writes back same day which is great. She also makes adjustments to the course schedule if there are any issues with the software. She's a great online instructor.
COMMUNICATED WITH THE STUDENTS WEEKLY ON ASSINMENTS AND OFFERED ANY HELP FOR ANY SITUATION. GRADED FAIR AND HAD HIGH EXPECTIONS FOR EACH STUDENT TO DO THEIR PART IN THE LEARNING PROCESS OF THE CLASS. VERY HAPPY WITH THIS PROFESSOR AND LOOK FORWARD TO TAKING MORE CLASSES WITH HER.
I loved that this professor responded to my email within a timely manner. The assignments required some time and effort. The load was fair since it is an online class. I would take this professor again.
This is a terrific professor.
I actually rather enjoyed this class, which was an introductory class in Management Information Systems. The material was up-to-date and of real relevance and interest in the It field. I also liked how she had us undertake a project in Microsoft Access, which taught the class basic but very important database concepts.
Good Teacher. Let's you know what's expected. Would highly recommend. Will take again!
Dr. Rich is VERY knowledgeable and confident in her teaching. Excellent communicator, expects the students to find the information on their own first, but she is ALWAYS there to help.
Dr. Rich is a great professor, she gives many chances for extra credit. The overall work in the class is not difficult but there is a lot so do not wait until the last minute.
Dr. Rich did a fantastic job with the class. I learned a lot that I didn't know. I am very pleased and would take her again for other classes.
Great informative class! Love the interaction portion on the computer
The LinkedIn Assignment was confusing as well as the Orientation. A little more clear cut instructions for the assignments PRIOR to deadline and a little more wiggle room from the instructor would be great in the beginning of the class.
Class wasn't bad at all. Professor Rich was very easy to reach if ever you have a question about an assignment but she presents everything pretty well up front so it doesn't leave too much guess work. Definitely do all the assignments provided and you should not have any trouble doing well in her class.
Good class, plenty of time to get things done and go back for extra practice if necessary
Tests that are given on Blackboard are way tougher than any of the work you have to do through SAM. Our class average was a D for the midterm and she kept everyone's grade the same instead of using that as a sign that the test needs changing.. I fly through the entire semester with 100 average and make a low B on the midterm, annoying.
At first glance the due dates for a number of assignments appeared excessive, however after completing the modules the assignments were not hard to complete. I enjoyed taking this course online and was not overwhelmed by the material.
Very hands on class. I found this class rather difficult, but the presentation is good.
She is very organized and makes her expectations of you very clear from the beginning of the semester.
This instructor provided clear guidelines to follow at the beginning of class. The work load is pretty heavy, but gives good information pertaining to the test.
Professor Rich was great in correspondence with the class and what was expected.
A good bit of homework but not hard just time consuming. Not hard to pass if you do the homework.
Dr. Rich has been a great professor. She always tries to keep us updated & remind us of due dates even though that is our responsibility. This course is fairly easy if have experience with Microsoft Office, but you HAVE to do the tutorials/modules on time & DO NOT procrastinate. It builds up quickly because the tutorials can be long.
THIS PROFESSOR IS GREAT. NOT EVERYONE IS PERFECT BUT SHE ALWAYS ADMITS WHEN THERE IS A MISTAKE IF SHE HAS NOT CAUGHT IT BEFORE A STUDENT HAS. SHE IS AVAILABLE OUTSIDE OF CLASS TIME AND VERY THOROUGH ON HER GRADING.
Dr Rich is a truly a good professor. She cares about her student's success in class. She gives many opportunities to better your grades if you need it. All teachers do not go that route. I give her much respect for that.
Many professors forget what its like to be a college student but to have someone that's understandings and cares about your learning experience is a plus. Thanks Mrs. Rich
Dr. Rich is a great professor, she cares about her students. She replies to emails instantly and is always willing to help.
Dr. Rich is very informative and keeps her students in the loop all of the time as to happenings in the class and assignments. She also grades very fair and pretty much lets you chart your own course.
This is not the first time I have had Dr. Rich as my instructor. Every chance I get I try to get her as my instructor. It is an absolute joy to take her courses. She supplies you with a lot of useful and helpful information. Her classes are of great use for the future as well. Her dedication and involvement shows in each course.
A lot of material to cover but gave time to work and complete it. Must be able to be disciplined enough to work on stuff weekly in your own so you won't fall behind. Research paper topic is a little different and a bit challenging.
Great Instructor! I enjoyed the class and she will make sure you know the information!
Commuicaion is key.. She communicates with her students online every week. Sometimes my mind would slip on an assignment but because I sign in every week and she has those weekly notifications I was able to complete everything on time. Thanks for the friendly reminders!
MindTap work is pretty time consuming but it is fairly easy. Did not enjoy the research paper topic-Autonomous Cars.
I really enjoyed the class. The layout is very thought out and the professor is always communicating with students. The research paper and technology project are very time consuming, so you better get a head start!
Professor Rich is very fair and professional. She is always available for questions or comments. I will definately take classes with her in the future.
Dr Rich is very professional and fair. She always available for questions. I will definately take her classes again.
Dr. Rich is very professional and has extensive knowledge of the topic. She communicates very well and always sends out emails with upcoming tasks to keep you prepared.
This professor provides reminders on upcoming assignments which is extremely helpful when trying to juggle a job, school, and life. She is also very responsive to questions.
Clear and concise on what she expects from her students and communicates effectively with her availability and questions students may have.
Dr. Rich was a very organized professor. The book was an e-book and I really enjoyed taking her class. If she offers anything else I need to take, I will defiantly take her.
I would definitely take Dr. Rich again. Excellent teacher.
She is a great professor to take online, stay on top of your assignments. Pay attention to the grading rubric for her assignments and you'll be fine.
Its a lot of work; however, she give adequate time to complete. Be prepared to devote a lot of time into this class and don't procrastinate. She is always willing to help and I appreciate her teaching skills.
The book for the class is online and not available in print. There is a lot of work to do, but she sends out reminders every week for what you should be doing. There is also a paper and a project due at the end of the semester, so don't wait until last minute to do them!
Had trouble with getting direct answers.
The class was outside of a classroom, but she was easily accessible if you needed help or needed to contact her.
Easily accessible for help
Covers a lot of material. It's nice to be able to work at your own pace to complete the assignments. The research paper topic wasn't interesting in my opinion but understood it went with the technology and she provided a clear outline to follow.
I found Dr. Rich to be an extremely qualified professor on the subject matter for this class. She combined the reading with videos and articles of current news and events that pertained to the subject matter - making it very relevant. When I had an issue with an assignment, she was accessible and helpful in making sure it was received to be graded
There are several assignments that require setting aside a decent amount of time to complete however, students are aware of the assignments early in the semester and have plenty of time to complete them before the due date. Study, Study, Study for the exams!!
Dr. Rich is awesome! The course has several assignments and requires a lot of time. Dr. Rich is very helpful and I really enjoyed her class! I would recommend her again!
She is a great instructor. Her class was mildly difficult and she made you work for it. if you read and do all homework, you will do great. Do you assigned work!!
good teacher
Online class was done with a online textbook/training software, which meant you had a lot of reading to do. There were videos embedded in each chapter that weren't really needed. Overall, good class and instructor but if you're taking it online, budget your time accordingly.
Fair is the best word I can describe her as. I missed an assignment and it was just an error on my point and I asked for more time to complete the assignment but she would not allow it due to it being unfair to other students. I agreed with her decision and it says a lot to me about the type of person/teacher she is.
I missed an assignment with no valid reason and she would not allow me to make it up for any credit even though it was 20% of my overall grade. I believe she made the right decision, though harsh, that will help me in the future and that speaks to the type of teacher she is. I had opportunity beforehand to get all help needed from her.
Do not get behind on assignments
This professor makes you work for your grade. Do not miss an assignment and stay on course, which she specifically tells you in her Syllabus.
You must participate in course to get graded
great teacher!
I didn't like the part about if you have a question about the textbook you had to contact technical support directly. If you had a grading question you had to contact technical support with the textbook company since it was all automated. I felt a few times the grading system had flaws.
Dr. Rich is very fair. Do all the work, watch the videos, and follow instructions and you will do great. A lot of busy work with the videos, and don't put off the major project until the last minute.
Very fair, reminds you of course work and difficulty of said course work.
Grades assignments quickly. Online class. Do the work and you will get an A
Dr. Rich was always reminding us about deadlines, homework and tests. She cares whether you participate and do the work.
Dr. Rich was always reminding us of due dates, homework and tests. She cares whether you participate and do the work for a good grade.
good class happy its over
I learned a great deal in this class. Yes, there is a lot of reading and quite a few assignments, but all of them were reasonable and announced well in advance of their due date. I really enjoyed the class overall.
Awesome teacher with very clear guidelines to do assignments. Follow the assignment guidelines and pass the course.
Good teacher. If you do the work and pay attention, you will pass.
Great teacher, fairly easy class.
I'm attending classes again and working full time. I have 1 kid in college and 1 in high school. I have NO extra time so I need my instructors to be straight forward and unambiguous. Professor Rich was both. I would enroll in other classes that she teaches if possible.
A good and useful course.
Dr. Rich is great. I took her class online. She assigns a lot of work, but you will learn something.
WONDERFUL!!!
Class is great she is a tough grader. I learned a lot from her.
The class is not an easy A, but it was enjoyable. I would take this professor again!
