In her class you work at your own pace, she sets the assignment for the day and the faster you complete it, the faster she lets you go home. I definitely recommend taking this class with Professor Baykal.

She is the best professor. NO NEED TO BUY BOOK. As long as you do assignments you will be doing great. For those questions you missed on first time for online exams, which you do at home as assignments, you will find right answers on submission dot before you try it again. You will not regret taking her class on campus.

I really enjoyed this professor! She gives great feedback and is great with announcing assignments weekly so that you wont forget. Follow all her instructions on eagle canvas and you will pass. Also, most of your work is on MYITLAB which is also easy and helpful because if you make a mistake you have a chance to go back and fix it.

I took Professor Baykal for her online class. I had a lot of difficulties at the beginning due to my computer nonefficiency, so I used to send her an email every day. Fortunately, she still answered my mail very quickly. She did not get tired of me. She allows late homework with few points taking out.

Professor Baykal is one of the chillest professors I've had this semester and understands that some of the material is stuff so she gives hints. You basically go at your own pace in the class just meet the due dates. It's not tough though because you have a lot of time to complete the modules. Would definitely take this class again.

In this class, you must read your textbook to find the answers. She does not teach much; however, she will guide you through most of the difficult stuff. Excel is the toughest portion. Lots of homework. Your level of knowledge will increase in the course. TBH, this course should be a core for every student.

Professor Baykal was a really awesome instructor! I was taking 6 classes this semester and BCIS1405 was one of them. This class made it so simple because all the assignments are unlocked and you could really finish the whole course in less than a month and not have to worry about it till final if you are really dedicated! Overall it is super easy!

Great teacher! Really outlines everything for you and is very specific with the assignments. Also gives tones of help with homework or MIL assignments. You will earn the grade because you actually have to do the work. But it's for your own good because I learned so much for the "real world." Good Luck

Simulation trainings have guided practice and the questions are the same as the simulation exams [homeworks], so no need to read the textbook. The exams are extremely easy because they are the same questions as the reviews/homeworks. the project is straightforward because of the instructions and some of the steps literally tell you what to do.

HCC's BCIS department is in charge of the structure! Do not blame Professor Baykal for the click limit! She does, in a very literal sense, EVERYTHING to make this class easier. Lots of extended deadlines. Unlimited simulations. Accepts late work. If you have to take this class, take her. Do not listen to poor reviews complaining about difficulty.
