Be prepaired for a lot of studying! Theres so much info to know, relatively easy to understand but A LOT! Dont try to cram. She is super nice and sweet tho and responds very fast to emails. Id catagorize her as one of the better teachers.

Helpful prof. NO exams! There were 1 page case summaries due every week and a group project due at the end of the semester. I only used the book as a reference for the project. Grades mostly vary due to grammer mistakes. Attendance is graded. If you attend class and proof read your cases you should get an A! FYI-Does not give A+ if you care.

Really nice teacher. She really is very helpful if you need it. She a tough grader, but if your a good student in class and she likes you she will round you up alot. I went from a B to a A-.

Expectations clearly outlined, explanations/lectures well prepared and understandable, very helpful, very quick communication through email, grading scale is different-but highly structured. You will do well by attending class or lots of outside effort if you unfamiliar w/Excel and Access. Group projects required; select team w/caution.

required class and she is great. lectures can be extremely boring becasue of the material. homework are interesting and can be fun. group project isn't bad, exams are not bad either, all essay. individual presentation as well. all in all you will learn the basics and if you put forth the effort an A is very attainable.

AMAZING teacher!!!! Always helpful. very sweet and down to earth. class can be boring but she told talks for about 30 mins. easy work. group projects and papers. Favorite professor for semester. :) You will love her !!

She is one of the best professors I've ever had. She is very clear, helpful, and understanding. There are two exams and she supplies a study guide for them. The study guides help a lot. HW once a week, fairly easy. There is also a group project that is very doable. Really good class, good professor, glad I took this class with her.

This class was informative. Lectures tend to be long and her voice can be irritating after awhile. She shows favoritism though. I emailed her about the review guide asking her to furthering explain the topic an she wouldn't give me any help. My classmate asked the same question and she just gave him the answer. Because of this I wouldn't take her a

Amazing prof. Lise is extremely knowlegable and clear in lectures. Class may feel long and boring but the subject is to blame for that, not Lise. Lightning quick responding to emails, and very helpful in her office. There are no exams in this class. Group projects are fun and allow you to be creative. In-class assignments are short and easy.

Very good teacher! One of the best at UMD... She loves what she teaches and you can tell. I actually might peruse an ITM minor because of this class!

Best teacher at UMD. She is extremely helpful, willing to help you whenever you needed. Very understanding and making topic interesting. Great Teacher. Would recommend anyone to take her.

Hands down best professor at the umd. If you don't take her, you will miss out big time. Always willing to go out of the way to help you out with ANYTHING school related. Answers Email almost immediately. By far my favorite!

Very nice. Welcomes questions, emails, and office visits. Attendence req. Homework every week. Not too bad. Can be tricky figuring out what you need to study for the 3 exams. She gives a study guide that tells you the exact questions of the test but you must find answers. Lecture is all power point. 1 presentation and group project. No BOOK! Got A

Good teacher. Fairly easy class. Her test are all essay so if you're not the best writer maybe find another teacher. But she gives out all the possible questions before the exam so that's a plus. Good teacher, so so class. Can get a good grade if you show up and do the work and study all the material!

Lise gives you a ton of busy work. Pretty much nonsense homework, it's easy just time consuming. Study PP slides, no book needed, and tests are relatively easy.

A really lovely lady. She is really helpful in the class, the class is not tough either.

She taught in Finland while I was there. She was my first university professor. I had no grasp at the concepts. I thought I was over my head in college while others knew it. She worked with me everyday until I got it. Great teacher, great leader! There needs to be more teachers like her at every level!

I really liked the class, even though I never paid attention to lectures. If I would have actually read the readings I would have did better. Class was rather easy material if you have some background knowledge.

Lise was a great professor. She was very helpful and her class was rather easy all that the student had to do was come to class and review the slides. Test were graded in our favor.

Very knowledgeable about subject matter, plenty of real-world experience. Keeps things fun and interesting. Encourages innovative thinking.

She knows her stuff and will take the extra time to explain anything your foggy on. Responds quickly to emails/texts. Essay exams are challenging and you need to study as you go or you're doomed. She does provide a detailed study guide. Learn everything on it. Presentation wasn't bad, but the CLASS grades you and some people were jerks.

Very interesting class; Lise made her lectures enjoyable and interesting. Probably the best teacher I had this semester. She had 5 writing assignments and 2 essay tests, which I thought was a bit excessive for a long semester. The lab portion, ITM 311, was also interesting even though it sometimes got boring at times when you knew the content.

"and so forth"

Fun class if you want it to be. She is nice and will take the time to answer any question and makes sure you understand her answer. Gives a “study guide” for her all essay exams, DO THE STUDY GUIDE everything on it CAN be on the test (S.G like 50-60Q test 8-10) will take her for any other needed class!

One of the easiest classes i have ever taken. Lectures can be slightly boring and mundane but you need to go for partcptn. points. Yes she does give a lot of review questions to know for the exam - but she only picks the easiest ones. Overall a good class to pick up basic ITM knowledge & and an easy 'A' to boost your GPA. Take over summer.

EASY excel lab. Wish going to class was not mandatory (attendance/participation points). She will let you leave after attendance, if you finish asgmt. before coming to class and submit it via blkboard...EASY A & will def. learn new things in excel...friendly teacher, will def take again.

Prof. Urbaczewski is a wonderful teacher! Her classes can sometimes be boring, but she does her best to keep it interesting. DO NOT buy the ITM 310 book, you won't need it. You will need the ITM 311 book - labs are very easy. The final project at the end was enlightening but make sure you're in a decent group. A great teacher overall!

Easiest class ever. Only down side is exams are all essay question and her study guides are 100 questions long for a 10 question test. ITM311 lab is a joke. Book is not used or needed.

A teacher who is passionate about what she teaches. The class wasnt hard but wasnt also too easy. Study well and do the study guides and you'll be fine. Group presentation and a personal presentation (which is pretty easy). Nice and approachable professor as well..

Best teacher .... Lectures are long ... The assignments were really easy, you just have to give your opinion about the topic. Grades very fairly. The tests are not that hard, you just have to put a lot of time into it ... Overall a very interesting class. Would definitely recommend it.

She takes attendance every class and that's part of your grade. Other than a group project and a couple individual assignments, you only have 2 tests. DO THE REVIEW QUESTIONS!! The exam consists of questions directly from the review questions so memorize the review and you're golden.

I'm taking her for ITM the summer semested. You can tell that she knows what she is talking about and her examples help so much. Write down everything she says and you will be all set. I actually look forward to going to her class everyday because I know I will learn something new and interesting .

she's really nice. she just recently changed her grading criteria and its a lot easier than before. only 2 exams with a couple of assignments. assignment answers are based on your opinion so just be thorough. there is no reason for anything less than a B in this class. DO NOT BUY THE BOOK, I REPEAT, DO NOT BUY THE BOOK.

SO EASY! I never paid attention in class but did the review questions and got an A on the exams. Few hw assignments which are very simple and worth a lot of points. She's an easy grader. Her slides don't help but do the review questions! Only 2 exams & 5 hw assignments. Attendance counts! BOOK IS NOT USED AT ALL. Don't buy it!

Pretty easy class. There are only 5 assignments and 2 exams midterm and final. She gives you review questions that are put on the exams. The only down side is that there are about 500 review questions on each study guide and only 50 questions on each exam .pretty intense if you ask me. Just buy the test bank for 30 bucks and you'll be set. No book.

Great Professor. Very organized and clear as to what's expected.

Lectures were extremely educational, and professor really knows what she's talking about. It's a fascinating introduction to IT. However, tests are questions from the chapter reviews -- if you don't read them and get all the correct answers (sometimes hard to glean from lectures), your grade will suffer. Be VERY thorough on homework assignments.

I have no clue why others are complaining! Yes, she changed her "guide" to "no guide". READ THE SLIDES. IF ITS COMMON SENSE, don't worry. Learn the rest. She is the best. I was sick for 2 weeks, and she gave me time to readjust my presentation. SHE GAVE ME A B+ overall, but she gave me an A since I was in the top 3 of the class ranking. LOVE HER!!!

She is just the sweetest lady! Actually cares about her students and is understanding of their problems compared to most profs that don't care. Be very thorough on assignments. Class wasn't hard but the tests were. Not sure we talked about a lot of the test questions during lectures. Textbook not mandatory but I think it would have helped my grade

Pay attention to the questions she asks at the beginning of class, those are usually on the exams. Make sure to diligently follow the instructions on the assignments to get full credit, it will make a difference in your final grade. Not a hard class if you study.

She is a great person and will work with you if you ask for help. People can complain about her teaching style and the work, but they are just looking for an easy A. Try, do the work, ask questions, and you will be fine. Its the person that makes the professor not the style/class

Awesome teacher!! So helpful , you really learn a lot from her lectures! I would recommend , wish I could have her as my professor for other classes!

She is awesome. Her lectures are great, and she reviews at the beginning of class. If you want to enjoy class, than take her class.

Course was pretty straightforward - information covered in class matched the exams. Prof U seems to care for her students and wants them to do well and set them up for success. Class typically went the entire scheduled time each week. I would definitely take another class from her.

She is really knowledgeable about the subject and often had interesting stories to add to her lectures. The first test is hard but it gets easier. She has a few homework assignments which aren't difficult and you do a short presentation. She is a really nice person so if you are struggling talk to her.

Professor Urbanzewski is amazing! At the beginning of the semester, I was hesitant because I had read negative comments about her teaching techniques. As long as you show up for class and complete all of the assignments, you will be in good shape. I thought I would major in Supply Chain but now I am majoring in ITM.

One of the best/nicest professors I have had all year. She makes the topic easy to learn and is extremely enthusiastic/knowledgeable about the subject. Homework is easy, and long, with a lot of time to do it. Attendance matters and there is an easier presentation to do at some point through the semester. Tests are difficult, so study hard.

ONE OF THE BEST TEACHERS! FOLLOW HER DIRECTION NAD YOU WILL BE GOOD!

The professor is really difficult but she is very helpful and supportive. 5 assignments that need a good 4 to 5 hours,3 exams and online quizzes and she gives participation points for attendance. If you take good notes and pay attention to her lectures, you should be good.

This is the first professor where I didn't have to use the book. Her slides are all you need. The quizzes are very straightforward review the slides ask questions you pass. Her two-page assignments make sure to research your answer and provide evidence Don't give a general answer. assignments are fun. She makes herself available for her students.

Amazing Prof. Take notes during her review sessions of each class. They will HELP A LOT!! Papers were not your normal type papers. They're super easy and fun. You have to read online articles and answer questions. Just answers the questions and have the same exact format that shes asks for to get 100% on papers. 10 quizzes, all online, 3 attempts

The class was based off 5 assignments, 3 exams, quizzes (online with 3 attempts) and an individual project. Assignments were written 2-3 pages. Quizzes and project are meant to boost your grade, so do well. Slides help A LOT as her exams are based off of them. She is extremely nice and always keeps you updated. She does offer extra credit.

Ignore all the bad comments, she is awesome! Yeah, tests can be difficult but compared to my other UM classes, this class was a breeze. On her assignments, you'll get a 100 if all you do is follow the instructions lol. Take her!! Trust me!

I thought Professor U was awesome. She gives CLEAR instructions on what she will be grading you on. If you follow those instructions you will get an A, it's just that easy. If you DON'T follow those instructions you will get marked down for it. This is an IS class so being picky is appropriate. Follow her instructions and you'll ace the class.

Lise is an excellent professor for all ISM/ITM courses. Everything is relatively clear in presentation and she communicates well with students. There was a straight forward group assignment in this class, though the grading criteria often was slightly unclear, it wasn't hard to do well. Overall, a solid and knowledgeable professor!

Professor Urbaczewski provides clear grading criteria that she expects to be followed to a tee. If you want an A in the class you can do it but you need to make sure that you read the grading rubric before submitting an assignment. You get one assignment per week and three exams throughout the semester. Easy A if you READ THE RUBRIC.

While I feel as if the tests are rather strict, overall, I enjoyed my time in the class, and she was generous at the end with some bonus credit due to our current circumstances. I appreciate how enthusiastic she was over the material, and caring for the students. Great experienced compared to most I've encountered so far at UMD.

Professor Urbaczewski is one of the best teachers I have had at UM-Dearborn. She cares about her students and the information is pretty straightforward. Her exams are just application of the material from slides/lectures. Pay attention, study, participate, ask questions, and do the review topics before the exams and you will be fine.

I didn't expect to love this professor so much. She's understanding and will not let you fail. She gave an extra credit assignment and extra points towards the end. Make sure to attend the lectures because you will actually learn. Exams are tricky so I suggest making flashcards out of the review questions. Assignments are easy but lengthy.

Lise is an excellent professor at UMD. Her class includes three exams, a few assignments, and extra credit. The material isn't hard but requires a lot of memorization. She's a great lecturer, highlighting key points and potential exam questions. She's supportive and always available to help, making the class manageable. Easy grader too!

Amazing Professor cares about her students learning the material. Provides us with the opportunity to put Salesforce on our resume. Exams are very hard so make sure to study weeks ahead of time. Complete all the chapter questions. Do not take the class if u do not study. Overall great Professor that you learn a lot from.

Shes a chiller fr. Good Professor just dont be lazy

I enjoyed this course; she is a very tough grader and exams are really difficult. I had to work hard to achieve the A- I received.
