If you already know some about computers, not to hard, otherwise may be challeng

Good teacher, easy class, lots of beautiful girls to look at if you get bored!

funny guy, easy class, just show up

tests can be difficult, but hw is really easy and he gives a lot of extra credit

Very hard tests.

Very nice, very helpful, very hard tests. look at side notes for test answers.

I liked him. Very helpful if you ask him. For tests, just read the books.

A really good introduction to IT. Go to class, do the homework and read the textbooks - you'll get a good grade. On test days, if you attend the second half of class he lets you retake the test in groups for extra credit.

Hard Tests read the book, projects are easy, an easy class if you are going to be an IT major, great prep for major

He is really fun to listen to and he makes things very clear

I really learned alot about computers. Very helpful through email with homework problems.

Tests hard, go to class for info not in book, read read read

The tests are hard, but if you do the extra-credit and the assignments on time it makes the course an easy "A." He brings high energy to his lectures and doesn't take himself too seriously. I enjoyed his lectures. You need to take good notes

Hard tests, and some confusing lectures. Nice teacher.

Class was very easy as far as assignments. The tests are difficult if you don't read the book. Easton has a good sense of humor about the class.

This class is cake. People whine because the tests are hard, but TONS of extra credit easily makes up for that. He lets you drop one test (final included). Funny teacher. Suggestion: pay $20 for the study guide for the class. It helps!

Good guy. It seemed like he was not fully prepared to teach course. Did the best he could and gave you the benefit of the doubt especially with test scores. He is a rather dry professor however but I would take another of his classes.

Very hard tests and boring lectures. Very nice guy and willing to help with homework. Don't take at night it is too hard to stay for three hours. Homework is generally easy. Easy B if you go to class or just read the book.

Nice guy, quirky sense of humor. Hard tests, but easy HW and extra credit balance it out. It's def. worth it to take at night, just to get it out of the way.

Easy enough, but do not take it during summer school, you have to turn the assignment in the next day so you can't get help on it if you did not understand the homework

He is extremly nice, however he gives the hardests exams I have ever seen. I studied for five hours and got a 63 on an exam. All I have to say is thank goodness for extra credit

Nice guy, was tolhe was teachin 302, a week before school, so he was pretty disorganized. Helpful and generous with grades, extra credit. Just study and do the homework.

fair teacher. gives extra credit. long lectures and boring, but informative. says your gonna get out early, but always ends up going out later. fair grader. all scantron...just study. material just confusing, but its relativly easy

He's pretty cool. Just go to class and read the required material. He's really picky on the terms of each chapter. He's really helpful too if you visit him during his office hours.

Very nice guy, but extremely hard tests for how easy the material is. Got a B but had to really work at it!! HW is really easy though.

Nice guy. Assignments are easy but tests are hard, make sure to memorize definitions. Drops lowest test and gives extra credit.

H/w is easy.He shows you how to do it in class. Tests are very confusing, and contain info. that doesn't even seem very important. Memorize everything! Very nice guy.

very boring course but very easy.

Very nice guy. His class is very easy and shows you exactly how he wants the hw done + the hw is VERY short! All test are multiple choice and you get one freebee. Easy class only complaint is he's boring and explains stuff 2X usually. Oh and gives EC!!

The way he teaches the class makes it really hard to pass. Has boring lectures that take up an entire class period, and nothing he mentions is on the exams. The exams are DEADLY. HW is fairly easy because he shows you exactly how to do it in class. I'm sure there are waaaay easier insturctors.

Not too bad, but you really need to study for the exams, even if you think you know the material. Do the online practice problems and study the definitions...

Class can be passed easily, but getting a good grade is tough. I know computers very well and I had a hard time on tests. This is because material is from the book, even the lecture slides. Class is pointless but extra credit is given in a few of them. Try to stay away from the Eastons if possible

He did answer my emails whenever I had a question about a grade or assignment. He's always there during office hours if you need to talk to him. I'm knowledgable in computer, but I thought some of the questions on the tests were rediculous.

Very nice guy, too many powerpoint so it gets boring, but he explains clear enough, a lot of tests, drops the lowest one, likes students and will help you a lot.

He is a good guy and knows his stuff. He does have a heart and wants to help you if you want to help yourself. The tests are VERY HARD if you are just trying to slide by. Do homework, read every chapter, go over test review terms before test and do extra credit, but an A is hard to come by!!

Very nice guy, but difficult tests. I studied all material and still only got Cs and Ds on tests. Just make sure to do all homework right and be in class to get extra credit it will help in the end. The main thing to learn in his lectures is excel, it will be on every test!!!

Way too much busy work. Had two 90's and a 70 on tests and 100/120 on final, did all hw, and still got a B- in the class. And my level of knowledge with computers is expert, degree from heald. All the work will suprise a slacker.

assignments were pretty easy, the tests were extremly hard. he helps you on the assignments so i suggest go to class. good luck on the tests everybody!

Really Nice Prof...but def not easy. The test are hard...visit his office hours to find out how to study for him. Easy to pass, hard to get a good grade. Drops the lowest test and has about 7 small excel assignments

He is a really nice guy, make sure to go to his office if you need any help...GO to class, it makes a huge different on understanding assignments. Tests are WAY too hard- questions on small details, study!!

Do ALL Homework! This will save you in his class. This professor asks questions, you will overlook when studying! Annette Easton is his wife, shes harder....dont take her. I advise to study all powerpoints/homework. Some of the hardest questions come from the application side of it, take the online quizzes, and go to class..he has questions fro

he's alright, not as bad as some make him out to be. it's just the tests that are hard, questions are too specific. go to class cause some times he'll randomly give you assignments which are easy points. he goes over how to do the hw too. work with someone on the assignm, it helps a lot. do the e.c.! only 3 out of 4 tests count. read the book!

Not as bad as everyone thinks. Get to know him and get help if you need by going to his office. He is helpful and you should always go to class b/c he gives pop quizes and extra credit when he see's no one there or people leaving. You should read, but just get an idea of what each chapter is about (only if you know some stuff about comps already).

Good teacher. Take small class if available. Talk to him and he'll help you out. Not that bad of a class. Read along with lessons and study a lot, but dont stress. Tests are pretty detailed but final is easier. Suck it up and put in the work. It's useful information and you have to know it. Husband better teacher than wife. Take class w/ a friend.

hard class, but he is very clear in lecture, and puts the powerpoints online, you just need to study! he's such a nice guy and very helpful! i definitly recommend him

Easy homework but the tests were somewhat tough. Read the power points and the book and you should be able to pass.

there are no really good teachers for this class but he is the best

It is an alright class, homework is really easy but the exams are hard, not clear what to study for, terms on review guide not really helpful, if you study hard you will do fine, not a bad class.

This class is retarded, i never studied left class 10 mins into it every day and still got a 86% with out taking the final. I retured to book cause its like 120 bucks and you dont need it. and if you do you can get it from the reserve book room.

Fair teacher, Tests are very hard. Some extra credit opportunities. 4 tests only counts 3. you can get a lot of useful info if you watch him do the assignments in class.

Good Teacher. Hw is fairly easy. Take notes when he goes over how to do hw in class. E.C. oppurtunities. Class not too demanding. Tests aren't that difficult if you study. Sometimes he will give review terms. Know those and read the powerpoint slides he puts online and u should be ok. 4 tests, but he only counts best 3. Followed schedule. Passable

Easy class. For the people who know a decent amount about computers, you can just skim through the chapters. ALOT of assignments but they aren't hard, just go to class because he basically shows you how to do them. Get to drop lowest test score which makes the final optional. Go to class because there may be EC. Easy B and fairly easy A!

I liked this class because I did not have to take the final. I got a C, but I was OK with that. He was really helpful and replied to e-mails within 15 minutes. No joke! The only thing that was not fair was that he said you could drop 1 HW grade, but he actually added an extra HW assignment. Overall, class was OK, but it is important to go to class.

Not a very difficult class but you must try read the book it really helps. Alot of tricky excell and acsess questions. Very helpful Always replys to e-mails if you try you can get an A. Just keep up on readings

Great guy, is interested and knowledgeable in his field.. but unfortunatly lectures are very boring. Gives study guides, final is optional. Study guides help greatly on test. He gives extra credit for in class quizes and a home work make up assignment. Very good and some what easy class to take.

He's a really nice guy.My BIGGEST suggestion:visit his office every week & find a way to apply it.He'll remember your name and help you on assignments.Go to class(quizes/extra credit YOU WILL NEED) & watch the movies, no matter how boring they are:they'll be on your test.Trick questions on tests so watch wording.GET physical BOOK.I learned alot.

Extremely boring. Definitely in your best interests to show up to every class because he will randomly give extra credit that helps a lot. If you do well enough on your first 3 exams you wil not have to take a final. There are about 10 homework assignments that can take a lot of time unless you are good with computer programs.

Easton is a funny guy! Class is boring and lectures were never exciting. Read the book and go over key terms before test. He gives out a study guide that has about 80% of test material on it. Trick questions on tests, must pay attention to his examples of excel and access! Final is optional.

Great teacher. Really helpful if you go to his office and always willing to answer questions by email. Study the book before tests and you will do fine and his assignments are pretty easy.

IDS sucks. He was an okay teacher. Going to class helped a lot because he would literally walk you through every homework assignment. If you go to office hours, he's helpful, but the class is really hard and the tests suck.

You have to go to class because he'll have random extra credits, which help. Assignments are really easy..You do have to study for tests they're a little tricky. Overall he's not as bad a people say...just go to class.

Do not take at STATE...i WISH i took is at a 2 year college. read read read READ is all I can say. Most majors need at LEAST a C, I met so many people taking it over just to make that cut-off. I am STILL waiting for my grade. I hope I got a C. If not, Ill be taking it over. Tests are retarded, powerpoints dont help...i hate computers now...blah

Mr. Easton is somewhere between Mr. Rodgers and Gary Shandler. The homework problems are pretty easy, as long as you read the exercise book. This guy tries to be funny, but ends up failing miserably. I did like the way he uses a grade estimator to let all of the students see their grade as well as everyone else’s. The test's have allot of tricks!

The way he teaches is confusing and unless you go speak to him in his office hours, you will do horribly in the class. His classes always fail his tests. dumb subject but i guess its not his fault

To start off, I am a Soc major and have no interest in information systems whatsoever. I would recommend attending class because he does in class assignments and quizzes occasionally. These helped me a lot. I had a border line C/C-, and you need a C to get credit. He gave me the C since I attended class (mostly). It is boring..bring an activity2 do

first of all, he's a reasonable guy if you talk to him. the material is pretty "complicated" but is not really hard. you ABSOLUTELY need to have a MORE than basic english to understand the test question exactly what he wants to ask! I manage to get an A this semester. but out of 7 class i'm taking this semester. this one takes up most of my times.

He is one of the best professors I have ever had! He is very available and helpful... Go to class, go to his office hours if needed, read the Easton material and you will do GREAT! Its not hard material, i do not understand how ppl can get below a C. He is extremely nice and intelligent.

Mr. Easton is very funny, though many do not get his subtle humor. The class is easy as long as you attend or study the slides and do the assignments - easy A.

I do not understand why people do not like his class. I found him to be to fair and clear. His lectures are boring, but he gives you assignments with step by step directions how to do things. I do not get why people do not get 10s on every homework, when it is written out right in front of you. It was an okay class.

TAKE HIM DURING THE SUMMER!!! the smaller class setting motivates him to give more extra credit and he even accepted late assignment the whole summer term. He was very helpful and his subtle humor was hilarious. 5 tests, counts the best 4 scores.

Great Professor and he is extremely helpful if you ever have any questions. Go to his office hours before the tests-it helps a lot! All you have to do is attend the class and do the readings in order to get a good grade. Not sure why so many students hate this class, I got a lot out of it.

Not as bad as his reputation is. It does take work, but its possible. GO TO HIS OFFICE and he'll know you by name. So helpful, just have to take the initiative. For tests, just study vocab and know what youre doing in Excel, etc.

Good Ol' George! Wonderful :) I love his class, so exciting and intriguing.

Best Teacher at State! Love this guy! So helpful go to his office hours YAY :)

Good teacher~easy class. Study and you will get an A :)

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME. i want to be an ids major now..

wanna be cool? take this class. all the cool kids do.

i enjoyed this class. not too bad.

Not as bad as everyone says. Not easy, but if you go to class and don't fall asleep every time, you can do just fine without A+ Review. I didn't go to A+ review, didn't study all that much or do the readings, and dont even have to take the final and am still coming out with a solid B. Goes over EVERY HW assignment in class before it's due. Quality.

Good man, good intentions. Goes too much in-depth, basically spoon feeding the class on how to do the assignments. The instructions are exact to the point, so if you follow the instructions, it's an easy A. The lectures are long and boring. Read the book for the exams and study the assignments and you're golden.

Pay attention to lectures, keep up on the reading and attend class, he drops your lowest test score and offers extra credit quizzes if you attend class, the subject isn't easy which why it's so important to do the assignments and study the readings.

BEST TEACHER AT STATE!! Made me want to declare IDS my major. Assignments with crystal clear instructions and he's soo helpful during office hours. Go to office hours! You can tell he really cares about his students. If you have an older version book then the assignment pg #s will be a little off and you'll need to search around in the book.

Dont let the first day of class scare you away. Quizzes are often just for extra credit and are never more than 7 points. Assignment directions are concise and explain exactly how to do everything. Read the book and make flashcards from the bold terms and you will be fine. Let's you drop one test score (final included)

EASTON IS THE MAN. Wow, the best professor I've ever had at state. I love that guy, highly recommended to anyone who wants to be inspired!

Easton really has the best intentions. If you fall behind he will gladly help you through anything at his office hours. Tests are hard, so make sure you understand the material. Assignments really help you learn and are very clear.

This professor's got swag! Man, the chillest, friendliest, happiest guy you will ever meet. Cares for his students so much. And exams, well they are SUPER EASY. Attendance not mandatory. This class is virtually a free A with no work. TAKE GEORGE!

He is a very easy going teacher, explains every assignment step by step, covers the material well in class, is approachable and easy to get ahold of outside of class. Plenty of extra credit, exams are cake, assignments are easy. And just to put a cherry on top, the textbook for this class is less than $50. In all, my easiest class yet at State.

Look this subject isn't for everyone but if you are into learning more about practical business applications and some basic web site skills this guys great!For everyone else, well sorry you were forced to take this class haha.

He is a cool guy, the material is dry though

Great professor and knows his stuff. But tends to give Long lectures. Sometimes they're interesting and sometimes they're not. I wasn't really into MIS so I admit that I dosed off a bit, but don't let him catch you. Read the book & study! Exam ?'s are sometimes from lectures and his textbook which he also wrote. Pay attention and go to office hours

Can be a tough class if you do not review the textbook after he gives his lectures. Goes over the homework assignments in class and sometimes gives extra credit. Office hours were helpful, would recommend him

He was pretty nice and the tests were fairly easy as long as you studied. I noticed a lot of people not coming to class but if you go, he gives pop quizzes for extra credit sometimes.
