Very unhelpful, iLRN really is a pain in the a**, half the time you can't even see what you're typing when you're on the thing (even on the school computers). He'll tell you on your first test if you don't get at least an 80% on it, you might as well drop his class...so I did (real encouraging).
very discouraging teacher, not helpful at all
Dominitch is a respectable man and teacher, he makes math somewhat decent but he constantly pauses his lesson to talk about gerbils, I would rather just learn instead of having to hear about how many gerbils he has as pets what he does with them I could care less I just want to get help with math
he can be a pain sometimes but he kows what he's doing. make sure you on top of you computer work i pass the class with a B
I have gone all through Calc1 and took this class as an easy A for an elective online. He was awful I am never taken such a class where the teacher is such a jerk and marks answers wrong even though they are correct, I even went to the head of the math depart. about him. DON'T EVER take his class!!!
Amen to the guy below me, this guy should not be a teacher!
not helpfull - expects you to know the material
He tested on everything he taught and the only grades that count are the tests. Simple and easy.
AWESOME!! A LITTLE INTIMIDATING BUT VERY HELPFUL TAUGHT ME THINGS THAT I DID NOT LEARN IN HIGH SCHOOL HE HAS ALOT OF PATIENCE.
Professor Domnitch was extremely helpful in helping me succeed in math. His classes are enjoyable and lectures are never boring. I will promote Professor Domnitch's class to anyone who is required to take this class. Thanks to Prof. Domnitch (and some hard work)I recieved an A in math.
I took this class online. This turned out to be a total self-teach class. This teacher was NEVER there to answer any questions. Either you taught yourself the material, or you didn't pass. The online tests were very hard. This was the first class I ever took without ANY support or help from a teacher. I would never take this teacher again.
Apsolutely the most awful professor I ever had! I wouldn't wish one of his classes on my worst enemies! Total JERK!
what you put in is what you get out, i thought he explained everything very well. only 4 tests throughout the whole sem. and before the test we would recieve the actual format just a change of numbers- its up to you how hard u practice
eh...i took an online course with him & really wasn't helpfull...he tried, I guess, but i dunno...he was hard, but i think that was just the nature of the subject... do your work and you should atleast get a B. IF you work HARD...
I took online statistics, which probably wasn't the best idea, but he does all he can to make it impossible to fail. He gives you points for posting on the webct bulletin, points for easy projects, and awesome practice tests that are very similar to the real thing. He's not present at all to help, so you're on your own, but the tests are open book!
I'll be honest... or maybe i shouldn't...This teacher had to be the worst college experience i have ever had... He should take a good look in the mirror and be ashamed to call himself a "TEACHER" child please....
if you can get passed his attitude, he's not so bad.
all that guy talks about is gerbils all the time gerbils this gerbils that. He uses gerbils to explain evertyhing as if there the only thing of importance in his life. Man oh man his class was hard and yes even harder than barney
I recommend this professor if you take the class in person. The on-line version is more difficult. He lets you go home early and his test are just like the review sheets. Easy "A" class if you pay attention.
I took Professor Domnitch for Mat 0020 and thought he did a wonderful job of teaching the material, so I took him again for MAC 1033 and had no problems with the material, I would suggest this teacher to anyone who needs to take college algebra (I am taking him again this semester for MAC 1105).
Great prof!! Funny anecdotes. Occasionally he goes off on a tangent; but, overall he's a great lecturer. He always stops and asks if we have any questions. Seems concerned about his students.
easy, great, not much more too say
your rock domnitch thats all i have to say...
Great Professor!!! Im really bad at math and I always dread going to it but he made class worth the while and never wasted your time. All tests online!! Dont forget to post your bulletins on WEBCT!!
I took his online class, it said that teacher would"facilitate the students through notes on the bulletin board" he only posted once all other questions went unanswered and we had to rely on the math lab for help! He was also very difficult to get a hold of via email (personal or webct) and took sometimes a week to respond. I withdrew.
PLEASE come back to Belle Glade if no one else likes you!! Great teacher; however, a math teacher that names his dog Algebra is a bit obsessive over math. I REALLY do not want to drive to Boca just to take his class.
Hes a good teacher. He wont help you if you dont ask though. Students should be assertive
He rocks!
Online, Liberal Arts is horrible. You are pretty much on your own. There is a paper and a project which you wont find out your grade till the last week of class. There are 4 tests-hard but fair (study the review sheets). He will answer emails somewhat promtly, but this course is vey independent.
BEST MATH TEACHER EVER!!! He seems really intimidating at first. Don't get on his bad side!! If you follow his rules, he is the most encouraging teacher ever. Don't assume that he will not allow you to make up a test; even though it says that on his syllabus. He's really easy to talk with and has a dry sense of humor. I Highly recommend him!!!
GREAT!.. I will definally take more classes w/ him as a instructor!
He is awesome!!! If you pay attention in class and do the homework you get an A. He is also very funny which you will not be bored in his class.
he sucks.. teaches you NOTHING.. useless .. might as well teach yourself
OMG. I thought I would hate this class. Mr. Domnitch made it so freakin interesting. He does go off on his tangents though; he then gets right back on target. I can't think of a better math teacher!!
As dorky as this guy was he was always willing to help. class was a piece of cake. he doesnt take attendance. reviews everything in class and the rest is up tp course compass..I'd take him for every math class I need..
Okay if u are some what good in math then take this class but I would not take him again. I struggled in this class because all the the tests and homework are online and u have to make sure to do yours posts Toward the end I did good My advice for this class just copy your homework down on paper and how to do it and then work from that for the test
He was a good teacher...he didget off subject quite often but he was wlling to answer any questions we had. He reviews in class before any tests. Whatever is in the homework is on the test....same qustions different numbers. I'm taking another math class with him...
Worst Prof. ever. He never reply to emails or help you when in need. I don't know how he still keep his job. I had to drop his class twice, but i went to see the "Dean" for him though. Stay away to his online classes!
Online class is 100% self teaching. No notes-just you and the textbook. Tests are hard. Unless you can put in A LOT of time teaching yourself in order to prepare for the really hard tests, take it in person. He does not seem very concerened with helping students or making himself available if we need assistance (online class). Grading scale is hard
I took him for College Algebra and I have to admint I was a bit intimidated after reading some of these posts. His teaching style is somewhat intimidating. He always answered a question with a question. Overall, he was really the best math instructor I ever had. His lectures were crystal clear. Be prepared for class or there will be consequences!
his a good teacher and all but sometimes doesn't know how to answer questions, his test are easy(all online), im not takeing him again, just because i think i can find a better prof. but his not so bad.
how in the world is this prof still teaching? worst math prof. Never responds to emails, doesn't answer questions you have. useless professor.
Online class will require outside help. Do not expect it from him. Most students hired tutors to get through. It is all self teaching. If you already know the Math, fine. If you want someone to teach it, take another class. maybe he is just not a good online guy yet.
horrible! he has no idea what he's talking about. i had to teach myself from the textbook. he doesnt even know whats on the homework he assigns. if youre not so good at math definitley do not take this class. worst teacher ive had yet for sure.
I am taking his online stat class. I understand it's self taught but the man doesn't even answer email questions!! Never again, Jay Domnitch.
I took this professor for the Spring of 2009 he is not a very helpful guy at all. I took him for a online math class and he would never respond to my messages. Thank God for the math lab because if it was not them I probably would not have passed. I DO NOT RECOMMEND HIM AT ALL!
Online class was very difficult. The tests were very difficult even with the book and he was never available to assist students. Grading scale was not the PBCC grading scale- it was much harder to get a good grade due to the grading scale. There were 2 projects which were really time consuming and difficult. I would take this class with someoneelse
I don't understand why this professor is being paid. He did not answer a single student's question. He created only three original questions all term. The rest of the work came from the textbook company. ALL work was done in Course Compass. This professor should be fired. He was AWFUL! DO NOT TAKE HIM!
While I agree with everyone else (hard class, no help from professor, rough grading scale) but... take on-line, tests are exactly like homework - take notes & use STATDISK (.com) It is do-able.
Not a bad professor. Got an A in both 1105 and Stat. Do yourself a favor and dont waste your money on the book, cause you will never use it. Everything is basically online. In class just take the notes and you should be fine.
not so helpfull, didnt seem to have an interest in teaching
Took him online. He is probably the worst teacher I have ever had. You have to teach yourself 100%, there are no notes and he will not answer your questions. His grading scale is RIDICULOUS. I got an A in the class but that was on a curve, which he left us hanging on whether he would do or not. We had to check panther web after the fact to find out
My first professor prof graziose taught this class in a most difficult manner,his jokes didn't help at all and most students were somewhat lost.i had gotten a 50 on my first test. Then graziose broke his leg and Domnitch took over. his Test are an exact copy of the HW and i recieved to 100%'s on the last two tests. thumbs up.
Take his class that requires blackboard. You can't really fail because all of his tests are open book, open note, and no time limit. You can do it out of the comfort of your home. I'm not the best in math and I'm doing really well. I liked him. I wanna take him again next semester.
Math is by far my best subject and the class I took was a joke for me. He is a nice guy and if you study will be easy. Only 4 homeworks and 5 tests all year. All tests and homeworks online. I made a 100 so I thought it was really easy.
One of the best professors ever!!!!!!! take him... His classes is very easy and all the tests are very easy too and its on line with all your notes, so it's very easyyyy. I gote A in that class. So I hope you understand that this is a very easy class!
Work teacher ever. Took the online class this semester. He NEVER answered a SINGLE question for any of the students in our class. He never acknowledged that the semester started, never "checked in", never returned phone calls-nothing. He should be fired immediately.
Great teacher! He makes sure you understand everything he teaches by teaching it in the easiest format possible. He's kind of a **** if you're obviously dumb though, but if you have common sense and you can match his wit he'll like you. Sometimes he doesn't even show up for class but he's alway in his office for extra help. He's not for everyone, but I personally loved him.
WORST EVER. I didn't come here before I signed up for his online Geometry class but I WOULD NEVER TAKE ANOTHER CLASS WITH HIM AGAIN. He either never responded to e-mails or responded weeks later. He stopped assigning homework after the 1st 2 units & just told us what chapters to look at. His tests were ridiculous & his notes were barely on topic!
I took Statistics online for the summer term 2010. i made an A, but only because i had taken the class before (made a D) and i had a tutor. the assignments are clearly understood and the tests follow the homework, however don't expect to get any help from Mr. Domnitch. He's worthless with that. He only gives the course online to get paid.
He does not teach the material necessary for the course. You'll have to teach yourself from the textbook. I would recommend him and I'll avoid any of his classes in the future.
OMG...I took college algebra with this prof in the Spring of 2010. By far, he is the best math professor I have ever had. I am not sure how he did it, but he was able to make all the complex stuff seem easy. I sometimes felt stupid after asking a question, only because each time I did, Mr. Domnitch proved to me that I was able to answer it myself.
He is a little funny, he always go off topic for a little bit but goes right back on, he's very entertaining.... his work are easy but all the homework and test were online an i hated that cause i would forget
Book for this class is useless, he does not refer to the book once. You WILL need a tutor for this class because he's obsessed with himself and "student dudiligence" and will not answer Qs on BBrd. I failed the class because I didn't complete one test at 6 PM sharp, and failure to turn in any test results in automatic failure of the entire class.
Horrific online teacher. He will NEVER ever ever ever ever ever answer emails or phone calls. If you take this online it is 100% on you to learn everything. At the end of the semester he curved our grades because of his terrible teaching. He curved the grade 7 points. That is the only reason I passed. I highly recommend no one taking his class onli
I would have never survived without the textbook multimedia videos and the my math lab component. Worst online class - never heard from the prof. In other classes, there are at least weekly "here's what we'll be learning - good luck!" emails sent to keep people motivated! Some of the tests were short (10q) and did not represent what we had learned.
This is TRULY the worst experience as a student I have ever had and I can honestly say I don't think it can get worse than this. Unless I were to take this guy again (WHICH WILL NEVER HAPPEN). This man was completely unorganized for this semester. I only have 350 words to describe my experience. I will put it as gently as possible WORST EVER!
Took this class online. The lecture notes had mistakes in them and there was too many different places to get information to solve the problems.
easy teacher, doesn't check attendance.tests are online and that's all you're graded for. tests are just like the homework super easy teacher and very sarcastic. taking him for stats this semester. highly recommend
i got an A in his online class im not a math person at all but stats requires alot of time only negative thing i have to say about this professor he dont return emails on time
Best teacher ever. I really feared this course prior to taking it. In addition to taking this online course with this professor, I attended a live presentation he put on; it was fantastic and helped me to see statistics in a new light. Whenever I asked a question, he responded with a question, this helped me understand better. I highly recommend!
I had to take an online intermediate algebra class and he was the professor in the instructional videos. He kept making mistakes but told us we would have to catch him on it. He goes way too fast and is not enthusiastic at all. Learning is difficult for me enough and he made it far worse. A terrible experience.
Took this prof for statistics online and it was the worst decision ever. He doesn't reply to e-mails for days and his rounding instructions for the tests are UNCLEAR. I took the tests several times and nearly received the correct answer but missed it by a point or two. Awful teacher, unclear, failed the class and now I'm forced to take it again.
Took online. A lot of students complained about not being able to contact professor, but for me it really didn't matter. Course was well structured, and I got an A easily.
He is a very interesting teacher. He pauses a lot to talk about subjects that come up. Not a HORRIBLE teacher but not the best. He is very laid back with attendance and phones. Overall, "ok" teacher but you will need to work a little harder to understand.
He is, by far, the best teacher I ever had. I don't mean only the best math teacher, I mean the best teacher ever! His notes are very clear. If you do the HW, you should have no problem passing the course. I can't imagine why others are complainin; he doesn't even teach some of the classes they are complaining about...lol. I recommend him highly!
Great teacher. He responded to all my emails within 24 hours. Hr was extremely helpful. He does stick to his syllabus on everything, so be sure to read it carefully! His lectures are funny; he brings the subject home. I would take him again if there's a class I need that he's teaching. I highly recommend him!
I wish more teachers/professors were like him. He is one of the better ones and I'd advise taking a course with him.
Great teacher! His jokes need work, but he tries. Overall, he has a talent for making difficult topics (or so I thought) easy. He breaks things down in a way that no other teacher has been able to do for me. Mr. D is great, take a class with him if you need a math course!!
Best math professor/teacher I ever had. His explanations were clear as clear could be. If you do all the assigend work, you'll do great in his class. I reccommend taking his course!!
Mr. D is the greatest! I hated and feared math before taking his class. I can't say I love math now; I do have a whole new perspective on it though. I would recommend taking a course with Mr. D!
I am finishing up a term in Mr. D's class shortly. I wanted to post this just in case you plan to register for his course for the next term. I don't where he did his training to do what he does, but, he is the best. I have never had a teacher that has the ability to make things so clear. He has a knack for making difficult topics easy to understand
Professor Domnitch is the best. He makes math look so easy. I definitely would recommend him.
As far as I am concerned, all other teachers/professors should model their teaching style after Mr. D. I, of course, don't know how much time he takes to prepare his lessons. It seems, to me, he must spend night and day wondering how he can reach his students. I think he's the best!! If you need to take math, take it with him!
I took a class with Mr. Dominitch about 3 years ago. Back then, I wouldn't have given him a great rating. I just finished another term with him; what a change!! I can't believe it was the same teacher. Where was this guy 3 years earlier? Anyway, if he continues to teach this way, I highly recommend him. He cares about his students!!
By far, Mr Domnitch is the best math professor I have had!! You'll pobably still dislike math after his course; he'll make it as bearable as can be! I recommend him.
He is an excellent professor!! He opened my eyes to the meaning behind all the statistics read in newspapers and polling data . . . I was blind, but now I see!! Take his statistics course if you get a chance.
He knows what he is doing and he's good at what he does!! More professors should be like Mr. D
Great teacher!! If you need to take college algebra, take it with Mr. Domnitch.
An excellent teacher overall. His jokes need a little updating. I'd take another class with Mr. Domnitch; so I guess that's a recommendation.
A great Professor!! I recommend him!
This was my second time I had to take college algebra. Compared to my first professor, Mr. Domnitch was great!! Take a course with him!!
One of the best college experiences I have ever had!! Take him if you need to take a math course.
By far the best math professor I have ever had. His explanations are as clear as could be! His course is not easy; however, you'd have to try real hard to fail his class. I recomme him.
Totally awesome professor. I finally passed College Algeba. I highly recommend Mr. Domnitch!
I took two classes with Mr. Domnitch. My daughter is graduating from high school this year; I won't let her take any other math Professor! If he could open my eyes, he could open anyone's eyes!! He's the BEST!
Mr. Domnitch always showed up on time, he taught the information well, and he was occasionally entertaining!! I was rarely bored; he certainly kept my attemtion throughout the whole class (on most days)! If you hate math as much as I do (or did), take statistics with Mr. D!! At least you'll be entertained.I recommend him highly!!
Definately one of the best teachers I have had at Palm Beach State!! He always seems happy. He's very good at challenging and motivating his students. Awesome instructor!!
I wish there were more professors like Mr. Domnitch!! I'd take all my classes with him if he taught them :)
Mr. D is very clear with his instructions and how the course is conducted. The "homework" assignment questions are a good reflection of his online lecture notes and his tests. His "how-to" video lectures on spreadsheets are the best and helped me immensely!! Overall a great professor!!!
I good professor. I learned a lot this term. I am going to take another class with him in the Fall.
...best professor ever :)
Mr. D made this class a worthwhile learning experience . . . even 8:00 in the morning didn't seem so bad :)
Absolutely the best professor I have ever had. His explanations were clear. He didn't simply use the problems out of the textbook. he reviewed material before each test. He did what a professor should do!! Excellent!!
He really seems to care about his students. He will not accept any excuses for slackers (people who try to hand in late assignments etc.). If you do what you are supposed to do, you will probably pass his course. I highly recommend him.
Although I hate this express, Mr. D "keeps it real." For the statistics class he brings in newspaper and magazine articles to demonstrate how numerically illiterate we all were prior to taking the class (and how numerically illiterate the authors of the articles were). I learned so much from him. I highly recommend him.
Took this class online and it was so much fun. Personally not a fan of any math course. Prof.D is a great stats instructor and he made the course breeze by. Summer C course is best, it may be a rush but its worth it. There are 5 tests, there is no final 5th test is final test. Post 12 discussion questions or tips for each of the 5 units. Take him!
He makes math interesting and sometimes funny. I will take another math course with him--probably statistics. I can't believe how easy he makes this stuff. I recommend Mr. D
Although there is a classroom portion, all homework and tests are online. The end grade is COMPLETELY based on the 5 grades you get on the tests. If you are not a good test taker, do NOT take him.
WORST CLASS EVERRRR DO NOT TAKE!!!!!seriously dont take it trust me
After the 2nd test material gets very confusing and slides shows are incomplete. He is not helpful AT ALL, if you can't figure something out his response would be " go back to material and read it". Blackboard did not show grades. When I asked to tell me my grades his response was " contact tech support". If u do practice tests u will pass exams.
Totally awesome instructor. Very organized course. Great videos on how to use spreadsheets. Take his course!!
Course was well structured. His notes and videos were great. He responded within hours to all emails I sent to him. If you're good at working independently, this is the class for you!!
I didn't sign up for the online class, but this entire class is online anyway. His in class lectures are completely out of sync with the online course material. The homework is excruciatingly long and the tests are 50 questions. This course is very deceiving. Don't take it if you don't want an online course.
If you can't work independently- don't take. I hate math but I like this teacher. He sets the test schedule and leaves you alone. I haven't heard from him all semester except once. I had a question and he answered it in less than 24 hours. Grade is based on disc posts and 5 tests. Take the practice tests and post discussions and you will pass.
This guy is super nice and funny. Definitely makes math interesting/fun. Your grade is only based on the 5 tests that are online.. online classes aren't bad at all. As long as you do the homework/pre-test (all online) you should be fine! The tests are about 2 hrs long but they're easy.. Best math teacher!
By far the worst professor I have had so far. Not helpful at all. The notes that were provided did not coincide with last exam.
Great teacher. Does not require you to show up, but if you do he actually teaches. Very clear when he teaches and always explains things to you if your having trouble. Gives no homework, and your grade is based on 5 easy MyMathLab exams which he goes over and even has a review day. Excellent teacher, recommend to anyone taking MAC1105!
Eh. I hate math. He was very helpful and accommodating though. I'm sure if I put more time into it, I could have gotten an A but yeah it's kind of a weird subject, Finite Math.
The best math professor I have ever had!! He was extremely helpful. His lectures are fun.
No help in emails, no interacting with students on discussion posts, or interested in the class. Syllabus wrong. Grading scale unfair. Test has nothing to do with the lessons. I passed 5 tests above 93 with 80 plus discussion posts, only 60 were required. I got an B in the class. I'm on presidents academic honors list 2 for years, now its ruined.
Mr. D made this course as tolerable as possible!! I took college algebra (with another instructor) immediately after this course and I got an A; He must have done something right. Although he provides plenty of resources online, his lectures are very clear and straightforward. I am now registered in his Stats class.
This guy is funny and he tries to make the course as interesting as possible. He gave us all the tools to pass the course. Show up to class and you should do fine. TAKE THE ONLINE PRACTICE TESTS!! I would recommend him to others and I would take another class with him.
I also had Domnitch for Intermediate Algebra, and would take him for every math class if I could. He takes the time to make sure everyone understands a concept before moving on. All test are taken on-line, which is a plus. He also provides a practice test and will review it in class. He makes lectures funny as well.
I took this class sometime ago online. There wasn't a lot of instruction at all. The material is very difficult and if you think it will be easy because it is online, it isn't. Also, the grading scale is more difficult then that of other instructors. I would suggest another instructor.
I took the class online no help at all . HE takes forever t reply to an email. HE might be a great teacher in a physical class, but no help from him when online theres only 5 classes no dropping lowest test or anything
I would not recommend this professor. Statistics is a tough class, he could've been more helpful than he was. Took forever to grade and answer questions andor emails. The only good thing about this guy is that his study guides are exactly like his tests. So if you study, you'll be ok.
Will drop the lowest test grade. Did not grade attendence. Will definitely be cooperative with students he sees making the effort. I made the mistake of thinking I could take my online tests until 12 when I really had until 6 and he let it slide because I attended, took notes, and participated. You could do a lot worse
He is a pretty rude person. Doesn't make any effort in helping students. The only way to pass the class is getting tutoring help. If you are willing to do that, then it's not too bad because the practice tests (not graded) prepare you for the actual tests. Questions are exactly the same, just different numbers.
I took this class online and Mr. Domnitch exceeded my expectations. Especially after what some others on this site have said about him. He responded to ALL my emails within 24 hours, he provided great feedback -- although he always answers a question with a question, his spreadsheet videos helped enormously! I highly recommend him.
Honestly couldn't even pick three tags that best described this professor, because I really didn't know anything about this teacher, it's like he was never present. I'm not here to downgrade this teacher, he does know how to teach math, that's one, but when it comes to emails, online work, syllabus, due dates, homework, he is never on time.
Wow, after reading some of the previous comments I needed to check whether or not I selected the correct professor's profile. This guy is the BEST instructor that I have EVER had!! I took him for two classes. One was online, statistics, and one was live, a survey of calculus. In both classes he responded to all questions asked.
I'm with the last person that posted. I took online statistics with Mr. Domnitch and he was always on the ball. He once even responded to one of my emails within 30 minutes--that was at 3:00 AM!! Now that's dedication!! He provides plenty of his own resources as well as the e-text. With all of these things, it is imposs to Fail--if you do you work.
He is pretty funny. He tells stories that reflect current events and turns them into statistics problems. He always expects students to do work on their own; so, if you are unable to work independently, he is not for you. He focuses more on the application of what we learn rather than just crunching numbers. I learned so much in his class!
If you have to take stats, take it with him! He's very entertaining and he knows his stuff!
Math is not my best subject. Mr. Dominitch made this class interesting to me. His comedy, however, needs work. I highly recommend you take your math course with him.
I am currently in his algebra class. He has the patience of a saint. I actually understand this stuff finally. Awesome teacher!
He is funny and quick witted. His lectures are awesome; he includes current events/research to all his lectures. I wish I had taken his class earlier in my schooling. he opened up my eyes to many things. We used spreadsheets for most of the number crunching; this became invaluable when I started working.
He's the best math professor I've had!
Pretty straight forward as long as you read the syllabus and follow instructions. If you're not clear on something, you can email him or post it in the discussion part and a student will answer since posting questions or answers is a grade. Reviews are just like tests just different numbers and you can take review multiple times.
Professor answers questions with questions which is truly frustrating; he also never answers all of your questions completely. The only good thing about this class are the practice tests, if it wasn't for that I doubt I would have passed. Who ever choses this professor's online class be ready to teach yourself and study a lot.
all he does is talk and talk the whole time and then teaches for the last 15 minutes and expects us to know it. he doesn't answer questions and never responds to emails. if it wasn't for practice test i wouldn't have passed. he thinks he's funny and he is NOT! other than using spreadsheets this class is terrible.
This class would've been easier if I would've gone to the tutoring sessions. I advise to anyone who will take this class to buy a TI-83 calculator. Towards the end I bought the calculator and passed my final. With a solid stat calculator and tutoring, you'll get an easy A. Make sure to do the discussion board, I was 2 points away from an A :(
If you are taking an online class , don't believe everything on the syllabus, more practice tests and homework is in the grade. He does not post midterm grades.
Honestly, taking statistics online, you're basically teaching yourself. Make sure you go to the turoring center for help. I also don't like his grading scale. Only good thing is the practice tests are similar to the real tests, the numbers just change. I personally wouldn't take him again, I'd take statistics in class. I got a C.
Mr. Dominitch is totally awesome. He used real life situations to make the class more relevant. I would recommend him to anyone who needs this class.
I was never any good at math but Professor Domnitch is great, don't let his syllabus fool you. He really doesn't require that you go to class but if you struggle like I did going to class makes all the difference. I would not recommend taking the online version. Lectures are good he makes jokes and keeps us focused. Overall great class, great guy!
I took this class online, you're supposed to use excel and watch his videos but I used a graphing calculator and the tutors in the SLC. The last 2 tests are kinda hard, the first 3 were learn-last-minute level of easiness, at least for me. If you turn a test in late immediately meet with him, there might still be hope for your grade if you do.
The material isn't hard, if you go to class and take the excel notes, you'll get an A. However, he is constantly REALLY trying hard to make jokes and they usually just cause an awkward silence. He's very unclear with what the course schedule is, we never had a syllabus and he WILL ALWAYS try his best to make you feel dumb if you ask a question.
An awesome professor! I highly recommend him! He opened my eyes to the "language of math."
This instructor is the best math professor I have had. He sometimes goes off on a tangent, but he brings it right back to the lesson. During one of his "rants" he brought up the term "actuary." I had no idea what that was and he explained it. I am now a senior actuarial science student in GA -- with several job prospects! I highly recommend him!
I just completed a statistics class. Although he always kept us to the end of class, his classes went by very quickly. A lot of information was packed in each lecture. He entertains questions before he moves on to the next topic. I thought this class would be beyond my comprehension; but, his teaching style is impeccable. I enjoyed the course!
Yikes! Cannot believe people gave him a good rating. I am a high school student, and you would expect me to pass this class in a breeze. WRONG! My friend and I took him and he did not really teach anything. Too much homework and sassy email replies. Rude. Highly UNreccomend
Took this class online. Must purchase mystatlab and do the homework on there. Homework can be extremely time consuming and frustrating as you basically have to teach yourself the material for this class. If you don't have a problem learning on your own then this class is for you. Review tests are identical to real tests except for change in numbers
I suck at math. At least that's what I thought before taking Mr. D's class. I was so scared. He opened my eyes to how math is used in everything we do! He's great, caring, and funny!
A great teacher. He sticks to his syllabus deadlines and he's a very tough grader. His lectures are great though! He is very thorough.
Shows easy work in class gives hard work for homework and tests
As a person, he is funny and cool, but as a professor, his lectures are not thorough and we all ended up teaching ourselves the material. He did not give us the proper formulas for the problems and he himself did not know how to do some of the problems in the homework. Get ready to spend a lot of time in the lab and teach yourself.
Basically, do what he tells you to do and you will pass. follow his syllabus and you will get an A or B. Now, don't get it wrong, you need to put in the work also get a ti 84 calculator and youtube. you'll be ok
So we basically didn't have a professor this semester. Didn't put grades in, didn't respond to messages through blackboard or the discussion board, didn't post weekly guidelines. Heard nothing from the guy the whole time. But, if you follow the syllabus and just do the work youll be able to pass. Practice tests are exact to the real test.
He's super sarcastic and at first you don't understand his humor and he gets upset about it but after time you start to realize he's actually funny. What he teaches in class isn't exactly what will be on the homework but at least the practice tests are very similar to the actual test. No textbook needed. Must have laptop to bring to class.
FOLLOW the syllabus and you'll be fine. I took the class online, 12 discussion post per lesson, practice test are very similar to the actual test. do the practice test well, he gives you extra credit points from them.
Please believe and take the bad reviews into consideration, I wish I did when picking this professor. All you are graded on are the 5 tests taken throughout the semester, which would be fine if he actually taught you the material that is going to be on the tests. You are pretty much just supposed to teach yourself the material.
This class was easy and I am terrible at math. Only your test scores count towards your grade and he gives you unlimited attempts on the homework, practice test, and the actual test! Be aware that homework and discussions are still mandatory. The practice tests are almost identical to the actual test, so all you really have to do is study that.
This professor is great. The class is very simple and there is no grey area when it comes to grading. He gives you 5 different sections. Each section has homework, a practice test, a discussion post, and the actual test. The only thing you are graded on is the test. BUT you want to do all the other assignments or else you will fail. Easy A.
Math WAS my biggest fear until I took this class! Mr. D is the best!
Took this class online, you won't hear from him for the whole semester. Everything that you need to know is in the syllabus, follow the syllabus and you'll be good. Stats is a tough subject, watch youtube videos, find tutors, and use as many resources as you can, because you're pretty much teaching yourself.
He is an amazing professor, makes math super easy and is soooo funnyyyyy
He's very straight forward and fair. Absolutley everything you need to know is IN the syllabus. Follow the syllabus and you will do great! Only con I have is not being able to see your grade throughout the semester. But it keeps you motivated!
good at teaching yourself? Take this class. need a teacher to show things. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. will be teaching yourself, he is VERY blunt. do everything on time, the tests all that matter. practice tests identical to the tests w/ diff. #s. Google will be your text book. Thisclasstakespatience. If you are emotionally sensitive do not take this
How to pass: Don't ask him anything. Leave him alone. Utilize the discussion boards. Do everything on time. Take the practice tests over until you get it. Google everything. Don't think because you are good at math that this class will be easy. It's not like math. READ SYLLABUS. Don't whine, go with the flow, buy a calculator, teach yourself. Done
he is caring for his students ! easy A if you do hmwrk & tests. DO NOT miss a test or you will fail . goodluck !
He brings out the best in his students! At first, I was fearful of attending college; Mr. Domnitch helped me to have the confidence to continue with my college education. He showed me I CAN do this!!
He teaches and explains everything you need to know to pass very clearly. Very funny, while still teaching things. Do the practice test and you will get a good grade on test and in the class.
This class is extremely easy. The only thing that counts towards your grade is the tests. MML assignments & discussion posts are mandatory though they aren't graded. I was able to finish all of the MML work in two weeks with just the temporary access, so I didn't have to purchase the code. The professor isn't very involved. Youtube videos helped.
The professor wasn't involved in this class at all. He doesn't give feedback, and everything is through My Math Lab. My advice, watch youtube videos on the different formulas and study. Your grade is only based on the 5 tests.
If you have trouble with learning math by yourself DO NOT take his class. He hardly interacts with you online and does not even post your grade throughout the term. He emails back "look at the syllabus" to everything. Forces you to do discussions, Pearson HW and a practice test all before the real exam which do not contribute anything to your grade
Class was pretty easy, took the online course for finite math and the only grades that counted were for the 5 tests, but to pass you have to do the HW, practice tests, and post ten discussion posts for each unit. Pretty simple to attain A and the work isn't super difficult.
Statistics isn't the easiest, but using excel formulas makes this very easy. The lecture are very specific and the homework and practice tests make it easy to do well on the exams. Highly recommended.
If you can avoid taking a STATS online, do so! This prof wasn't BAD, but, you're going to pretty much teach yourself. HW, practice test, & disc posts not counted towards grade, but mandatory to pass. Five test average final grade. Has his own grade scale, so don't think you are getting a B if you have an 80! 100-92 A, 84-91 B, 70-83 C
He lectures are PP presentations, and videos of himself teaching excel and formulas. He had some dry dad jokes in there which made it somewhat interesting. Homework, practice quizzes, & DB posts are mandatory but no grade is given. Only thing that's graded are your 5 unit tests. No tests are dropped, but he did give me EC for completing all HW
He uses Excel for his class. ALL his exams can be taken at home or anywhere with internet. This is not a regular Statistics class! Every calculation is done in Excel. All you have to know is how to plug in numbers. He does get kinda mad when you ask questions like... how to get an answer on excel (because it literally gives it to u).
The first three test are easy, the last two are challenging, only advice would be do not leave those two to the last moment. Discussions and homework are mandatory to pass the class, but you are only graded on the five test. Use youtube and google to learn the material if excel is not your strong point. I think if you try you will get the A.
Statistics in general was soo difficult for me. But this professor provides excel sheets (mandatory) that are super helpful and you will not pass without them! Graded on tests only and he does give credit if you participate in the discussions and homework. Must pass quizzes with a 70% before moving on to the test. So happy I passed!
You wont hear much from this professor during the semester. The use of Excel is a must to get through the course. There are discussion posts, homework, a practice test and a test for each unit. Final grade is based on exam grades only. The practice test is practically the same as the exam.
U need to complete hw to pass class. But hw isnt counted towards grade. U need to post 10 discussions per chapter... everyones writing anything jus for credit, easy... exams are all that your grades on so thats your biggest concern. I went to tutoring n did them w a tutor and passed class with an A. the exams are taken home on my math lab,easy.
Jay Domnitch's online statistics class is what a perfect online math class looks like. Very easy to understand class format, and his lectures and slides are very informative. The only negative about this class is the 10 discussion posts per unit, but that is a minor criticism.
As long as you: Complete all homework for completion, not accuracy. Post 10 times per discussion. Use the workbooks provided to make the pretests easier! Practice the pretests untill youre ready to test. You will pass! Very doable! Grade is based off tests only. Proff rounded my grade up to a B because all hw and discussions were done
If you are not good at math do NOT take this class. The entire course is graded on five tests and thats all. He wants you to use excel for every single question on both the HW and the tests doesnt give you formulas or anything to do it on a calculator. If you know how to use excel this may be easy for you. lectures were so long and dragging.
If you're good in math and can teach yourself then this is the professor for you. This professor is not great online. We are suppose to meet for a lecture however, he never does he just post pre recorded lectures from another professor. Non of the homework or assignments you do count towards your grade ONLY the test do.
If u want an A or B take this class n google every answers!! use the slc lab for help
I took this professor for statistics a few years ago. I left college for personal reasons. I wanted to take professor Dominitch for another class, but I found out he no longer works at the college. That is disappointing because he is the best math professor I have ever had.
