attendance was not mandatory but he gave incentives to people who actually showed up. very nice professor and an easy A if you actually show up to class.
Great professor great class
Professor Lamb is GREAT! He's super nice and down to earth and tries to make class interesting by bringing in speakers and doing discussions. Attendance isn't required but it helps a lot to go because he tells you some of what's on the test and excused people who consistently went from taking final/ doing some assignments. TAKE HIM IF POSSIBLE!!!
Mr. Lamb is a down-to-earth professor who gives lectures that are very easy to follow. To take breaks from the lectures, he invited two guest speakers and showed us a documentary about social media, which were all enjoyable to watch. He only grades three exams and two assignments, so homework is not an issue. Would recommend taking Mr. Lamb!
Professor Lamb is the best. He makes the class really easy and is fun while teaching. Highly recommend you take him for ISMN.
Professor Lamb is the best! Very easy-going and personable. Attendance isn't mandatory and he gives 3 exams and 2 homework assignments all semester. Seems like he really understands his students and tries to make this class as smooth as possible. Highly recommend him!!!
Professor Lamb makes his lectures enjoyable by joking and by bringing in many different guest speakers. Attendance isn't mandatory and you could miss a few lectures and be just fine. 3 online exams makeup 90% of total grade and are 25 mins long with about 30 questions.
Phenomenal professor. Short and to the point, and does not blabber and give unnecessary information. Great guy, and tests are taken on your own time at home. Even cancels class for the whole week we have our exam. If you can take him, 100% do so.
Super chill guy. Very easy class and will give bonuses to those who come to class. Also, all tests are online and he posts PowerPoints to canvas.
I highly recommend taking Michael Lamb, he is a good professor and he makes his class super easy. Tests are online and you have a few days to take them. Show up to all of his lectures because he gives answers to test questions or exempts you from tests/homework assignments just for showing up. If you show up and pay attention you should get an A.
Way cool dude. Professor Lamb is a down-to-earth guy, and is very flexible with students and accommodations. Don't stress if you can't make class, he posts the PowerPoints. Also, he gave free assignments to those who showed up to class. So I recommend going to class.
I do not review often, so that tells you how much of an impact Mr. Lamb has had. Let me make it clear, you will not regret taking Mr.Lamb's class. Not only is he knowledgeable and passionate about what he teaches, but he genuinely cares about his students. The workloads are small, you only need to attend and pay attention.
(This is for ISMN 3010) This dude is awesome and is a good connection to have from the business school, especially for ISMN students. Scheduled lots of guest speakers, field trips, and always shared employment opportunities with us, and gave good advice. If you're an ISMN major I'm sure you've already met him but regardless he's an awesome guy.
Got a high A and never went to class!! We had about 5 assignments throughout the semester and the exams are online open notes. Take him if you can!
This was the easiest class I have ever taken at Auburn. Went the first day and never went again. All due dates are in the syllabus, and all exams are easy, ZERO studying required. Don't take any other professor for ISMN 2140.
The BEST professor at Auburn for Information systems! Attendance is not mandatory but gives extra credit and points when you go. There are 4 Exams and they are so easy. TAKE HIM.
Lamb is so funny and makes this class as easy as humanly possible. If you go to class he does offer incentives (I didn't have to take exam 3 because I went to class) but it is so easy to pass this class even if you don't go. He tells you EXACTLY what is on the tests and they are made exactly from the slides.
Although attendance is not mandatory, he sometimes gives out test answers in class. The lectures can be boring, but the class is easy.
Take him and show up to class. Simply put he is the goat.
Class is free. This guy is so funny and awesome and chill. Class is easy to skip but he will give a lot of bonus for showing up to class. Exams are easy, he tells you what is on the exam. You should not take anyone else for this class
Awesome professor. He makes the class super simple and the exams are pretty straightforward. He gives bonus opportunities occasionally and gives the option to earn points back on your exams. If you have to take ISMN, take him.
Professor Lamb is awesome. His class is super easy. There are 4 tests and 4 assignments. The assignments take 5 minutes, and the tests require minimal studying. Class isn't mandatory, but you should go because he will give extra credit every now and then. Prof Lamb is so chill, too. He had 3-4 guest speakers come. TAKE HIM
He was such a chill professor. Gave extra credit for showing up some days and his exams were really easy. In his lectures he will say which parts will be on exam and if you study those you should be good. I went everyday but honestly you could only go on exam days and get an A.
Very easy and interesting class! Lectures are short and to the point and there are many assignments and bonus opportunities offered throughout the course. Attendance was not required but extra credit was given randomly for those who show up.
This class was great! He made the course very easy. There are 4 tests and all of the information for them can be found in the slides. There are also 4 easy assignments and NO FINAL. Make sure you go to class because he will sometimes give everyone who showed up an automatic A on the next test. I would definitely recommend him.
This is the best professor I have had easily. Attendance is not mandatory but if you go to class, you get an A. Simple. Gives out free A's and tons of extra credit for simply going to class.
The best professor I have ever had, if I could take him for every class I would. He makes his lectures interesting and easy to follow. He often let us out of class early and genuinely cared about all of his students. If you go to class you will do amazing in this class!!!
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. He is my favorite professor not because of the class but because of his great personality. The class is so easy it makes no going to class so easy to do but I promise going is so beneficial for extra credit even if you dont pay attention to the lectures. The tests were not bad and he always gave bonus and extra credit.
Professor Lamb is one of the best professors I have had. He wants you to succeed. Lots of extra credit and really straightforward tests. Could not recommend him more.
He cares a lot about his students and their success. Tests are very easy and worth 96% of your grade. He often gives you topics that will be on the test to study for. I would take his class again
Highly recommend! Super nice guy and super straight forward class. Not graded on much as your grade consists of four assignments and four exams, but neither are hard.
TAKE MICHAEL LAMB IF YOU GET THE CHANCE!!!!!!! He is seriously so kind and caring, you don't have to go to class, and he genuinely wants all of his students to do well. I didn't get below a 95 on a single test, and didn't have to study super hard. He is seriously so awesome and one of my favorite professors that I've had.
Professor Lamb is a great guy! The tests in this class are extremely straightforward and common sense. If you study and prepare for this class you will definitely make an A. While attendance isn't mandatory, I would definitely recommend showing up to class. It will pay off in the end. Professor Lamb is great!
Professor Lamb is very knowledgeable of all things ISMN. Attendance is not mandatory, but I would attend the lectures because he will point out what you need to know for the exams. Exams are in class on canvas. 4 exams worth 24 points each, and 4 easy assignments worth 1 point each. I highly recommend.
I loved Mr. Lamb. Easy class if you show up, easy A. Very caring teacher, he works with you and actually wants you to succeed. Take Mr. Lamb if you're taking ISMN 2140!
Easiest class I have ever taken. Only went to class for exams, other than that I looked at the ppts the night before an exam and got 100s on all of them. There were a few easy assignments that took maybe 10 minutes.
Super easy. Take him.
He's a great guy that cares about the success of his students. His class isn't mandatory, but go. He gives random attendance bonuses/exam exemptions if you just go. Participate too, he loves interacting with his students. He is the best option for ISMN by far. Finished with a 97 and would study for an hour before every test the morning of the exam
The goat. I hadn't been to class for a month bc I was depressed, he said he recognized my face so I didn't have to take the final (he gives random exam exemptions to ppl who go to class). Look over PowerPoint once before test, you'll get a passing grade. Go to lectures, look over PowerPoint, and you'll get 100. He's funny too, explains things well
Great professor. His tests are very easy and he goes over all the content in class. If you go to class he gives out random attendance bonuses that really pad your grade. He also makes his lectures really engaging and it was sometimes really interesting.
One of the easiest classes I've taken so far and one of the most enjoyable. Barely any assignments and the exams are not hard at all. Gives many opportunities for extra credit and ways to increase your grade. Highly recommend!!
The easiest class because of him. You don't need to go to class but he gives extra credit for students who go and even gave an A on a test to everyone who showed up for class one day. His test are extremely easy just memorize the power points.
Hes the best, take him! come to his lectures he might drop a test grade for you :D
His teaching style lacked clarity and depth, and I didn't feel that I gained a strong or comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. Overall, the course felt more like checking a box than an opportunity to truly learn and grow.
Super nice guy. Lectures and quizzes.
If you are reading this, TAKE MICHAEL LAMB. I've recommended him to all of my friends and they thank me till this day for it. He is hilarious, super laid back, and knows you're trying to get through the class. His slide shows are super simple, go to class and note what he says and you WILL earn an A.
I loved His class. not the easiest but just study right before his test and you will be fine. his lectures are interesting and he knows this isn't all of the students major so he makes it manageable.
He's awesome. The tests aren't bad as long as you study up. He's kind and caring and offers extra credit.
Michael Lamb is a great professor. Tests are pretty easy and he covers all the information in reviews before the test. Brings in guest speakers and shows videos to the class to make the lectures more interesting.
10/10 recommend. Memorize class slides and you will do just fine. Great teacher, take him if you have the chance!!!
I would take him again and teaches well. The test are easy and MCQ. You will learn a lot.
Amazing!!! Fantastic professor and does a great job breaking down topics that could be otherwise confusing. Tests are not hard if you review powerpoint
Lamb is the Goat. I needed my grade rounded up and he said to email him and he would take care of it.
seriously take professor Lamb!!!!! i don't have enough good things to say about him. He is incredibly kind, caring, and wants to see you succeed. GO TO CLASS! He'll give you an automatic A if he sees you put in the work and show up.
Lamb is awesome, the class is based on a 100 point scale, 6- 2 point assignments, and four exams worth 22 each with no final. The class is pretty laid back and if you need help on a subject, he's very fast with emails. Also attendance is not required yes, but he does benefit those who go to class every day and make an effort. Take lamb.
He is the GOAT. You have to take him
He is great! The class is pretty easy as long as you pay attention. He's very nice and accessible if you ever need help outside of class.
Take this class!!! I would recommend him over and over!! He's seriously the best.
He's a kind and engaging professor! The class is very manageable as long as you attend regularly. He genuinely wants his students to succeed and is always willing to help. I really enjoyed his class—nothing too difficult, just a bit lecture-heavy.
Really great guy and professor who cares a lot about his students. Very knowledgeable person and easy to talk to, highly recommend.
I barely went to class, just study the slides. super easy and no final!
super easy, points based class. mainly graded on 4 tests with a few small assignments. no final as well!
Awesome guy, very lenient with grades. Wish he had other courses
I loved him. His lectures were exactly what he put on the exams, and he had several guest speakers and interactive class days that were actually interesting and fun. He understands that students have other classes and responsibilities and formats his class in a way that is manageable, while still being educational.
He is the GOAT. Attendance isn't mandatory but it's worth going as he is one of the best professors I've had. He has guest speakers periodically who are engaging and very knowledgeable in their fields. Though the course is test heavy just study the slides a couple hours before and it's an easy A. Also there isn't a Final!
Absolutely amazing professor, you're in & out of class & he often gives extra credit or exempted assignments for being there although you definitely don't need to attend. He cares about his students & the exams were pretty easy just study the slides. Definitely recommend taking him!
He is great and has very engaging lectures. The class was very organized and easy to follow, would recommend taking!
I took him abroad in Milan, and he was very easy going and helpful. We finished the course material in 3 weeks so it was fast paced, but he worked with us to make it manageable.
Michael Lamb is the GOAT!!!
If I were to rate Michael Lamb higher than a 5 i would, awesome teacher.
Professor Lamb's lectures are for the most part short and to the point. Tests are very vocab heavy, so even if you think concepts are common sense, I would recommend loading everything into a quizlet and really allowing yourself to be familar with the terms since they WILL be on the test.
Super easy and chill guy! Cares a lot and wants his students to do well!
Greatest professor at Auburn. If you come to class you get an auto Hunnid on assignments. Tests are easy, he genuinely wants you to succeed. There's is no other way to put it, he is an awesome guy. Real embodiment of Auburn.
He is the best!!!!! Attendance is not mandatory, but some days he will give everyone currently in class a pass on the next assignment. Tests are easy and he really wants to see his students succeed!!!! Class rarely goes for over 30/35 minutes. He is the best!!!!!!
TAKE HIM. Super nice guy and he knows that not a lot of people are ISMN majors. If you go to class he gives extra credit. The tests are fairly easy too, would definitely take him again.
Show up to class and he gives you free assignments and even gets you exempt from the last exam. He is such a nice guy and super understanding. Definitely take him
So easy. Drops lowest grade. If you attend class you can skip exam 4.
Relatively easy course. His lectures are engaging, and you can tell he is really passionate about ISMN and his students. He is just such a sweet guy, and I'm sad to not have him as a prof anymore. Attendance replaces HW assignments so make sure you go to class.
The BEST professor I've had at Auburn! He makes the class entertaining, which made me want to go. Such a nice guy, and you can tell he cares about ISMN!
Lamb teaches information systems with a focus on usefulness to majors other than ISMN. If you're looking for an easy class to skip this is it, but I recommend going and learning about the interesting topics he teaches on. Not everyone is an ISMN major but everything taught in this class is relevant to anyone who takes it. Five stars.
It is very difficult to get anything but an a in this class, tons of extra credit for just showing up. Couldn't recommend this class more
Awesome, chill guy who cares about his students and doesn't want his class to be a burden. Material is pretty straightforward. Lots of extra credit points if you go to class he often excuses you from homework assignments. Tests are easy just study old Quizlets or the slides day of and you'll probably be fine.
100% take him. Replaces lowest grade and attendance is not mandatory but towards the end of the semester j would go because he give extra credit and you don't have to take the final. easiest A ever.
I would die for him. no joke. The best teacher, attendance isn't mandatory, but I recommend going bc he gives out free assignment grades and sometimes test grades or answers if you go. Class always ends early plus he's the most precious guy i love him and hope he's so happy in life bc he deserves it!!
I loved Lamb a lot, his class was simple but effective and attendance isn't mandatory. The exams are based completely off slides so it's easy to study and he makes the information interesting. He's a funny person and I enjoyed being in class.
Good guy, very very easy class. Almost too easy, to the point that it felt like he really didn't have a plan for the class. Easy A, show up and try just a little and you'll be fine. Didn't appreciate the AI generated content and some lectures were less than 20 mins, kind of felt like a waste of time. Wouldn't recommend for 8am.
Mr. Lamb's class was super easy, and kinda felt like a waste of time. A few times we were in class for 20 minutes. He gives a lot of credit for attendance because hardly anyone shows up to class (my exam 4 was entirely an attendance grade). Exams are easy, review over slides and you'll be fine. If you have to take an 8am, make it this class.
Professor Lamb is amazing!! He is so nice and very knowledgeable! His exams are super straightforward and he tells you what you need to know for the exam! Would definitely take him again! One of my favorite professors at Auburn!
He is amazing!! He cares and wants you to do well and get an A. He gave auto 2/2 on the homeworks for just coming to class, so it's not mandatory, but I strongly advise going! He also provided many ways to earn extra points toward tests! LOVE HIM! TAKE HIM!
Best professor ever. Tests are super straightforward and easy. Gives so much extra credit.
Take this guy he the goat.
Easy class and Professor Lamb is a great guy. Lectures were very interesting and it's designed to support students.
He is great and I would 100% take again. Attendance is not required but if you show up to class you won't have to do most assignments and the exam questions come straight from lecture slides.
