DO NOT take this class if you're expecting to never attend the labs or go to her lectures because you will flat out fail. i'd say about 60% of my class failed it, she doesn't curve & won't make exeptions, tests are extremely hard (memorize the book!) & i had to bust my ass for a B. she's extremely nice but the class material is just plain hard.

Easiest class you will ever take. Attendance isn't mandatory and it's lecture one day and lab another. I rarely went to class and didn't even take the last test because i had an A already and she drops the lowest grade. If you have half a brain you will ace it.

Good grading Method, Nice Teacher, Not a hard class BUT, your never clear on what you have to study for the test. You don't know if to study the whole chapters she tells you or certain key terms or what. She might give you a lil review but you kinda have to guess and study on your own to pass the test.

Just make sure you have the text books and Microsoft Office 2007. Do the lab exercises, you can go to the lab or do them at home. The hardest part is the Excel but its not too hard. Word is a joke. She encourages using Mozilla Firefox instead of Internet Explorer for those who haven't seen the light.

Professor Weiss was very helpful& sweet! She made the class interesting enough and she is very knowledgeable in Excel. 4 Exams, each with a 2/3 extra credit quiz worth 5 points (too easy) and she also provides another extra credit quiz at the end worth 5 points (I think) towards your final grade.

Grading is 4 tests and she drops the lowest test score. 4 extra credit homeworks which is 2 questions that will be on the test. Test questions are MC or TF and about 20 to 25 questions. Class lessons are not mandatory, but you can expect test questions based on it. She offers other extra credit opportunities also.

Professor Weiss is amazing ! You don't really have to take any notes during her lectures. You'll be doing most of the work at home through the textbook and tutorials and they're really not that bad. Make sure you do them thoroughly and you will easily pass the exams. She also gives extra credit too! Would most definitely take again.

There is no homework but do the tutorials at home. There is no midterm or final exam , just 4 exams, she drops the lowest one. Take her if you can teach yourself the material .

Weiss was as engaging, understanding, and flexible as an online professor could be. The course material is not extremely difficult, but don't expect to just coast by. You'll be more than fine if you go into the class with knowledge of Xcel but if not (like me), you'll have to pay a bit of attention to the hw. This class is quiz/test heavy so study!

Didn't really interact with the prof that much, but when I did, she was super nice and caring. The course is all about excel and the information can get a little overwhelming since you learn about every single action and button. Make time to study, however for tests you are allowed a cheat sheet. Overall, it was a great online class.

Since it was an online class and we were using simnet, there was no lecture. Professor Weiss was still super communicative with us, sent us messages often encouraging us, and when we had an issue with our access to simnet, worked immediately with the publisher to fix it (on top of the fact that she negotiated a lower price for us to begin with).
