Mr. Rahni is a great guy..Very Polite and nice. You have alot of extra credit to help you with your grade. I love this guy, one of the best teachers i ever had. He is a sweet man.
very nice guy, but class is not easy. Couple of hard exams and if you aren't good with the computer do not take it because you will get a B. Easy B, very hard A.
He's such a cool guy. Very helpful and kind. Ask him questions and he's there for you. Great lectures, but at times goes too fast. Tells you what he expects to be on the test. DO READ AND STUDY and you shall succeed. =P

This is the easiest class in the entire world! He gives you some homework that is a little time consuming but its not hard at all. Highly recommended.
Very knowledgeable. The exams are difficult but Professor Rahni makes them easier because he lectures well and covers the important topics in details. His expertise, his caring, and his presentation style makes it easy to understand the concepts and earn a good grade.
He is ok
very good teachere, the best of the the best , hes very good undrststaneble , and he works wit you if you need help with computers . i got A and Bs in his calsses.
This professor is one of the best. He's very nice and helful. The assigments on the computer very easy but his test are kinda complicated. If you don't know a thing about computers take his class. you'll learn a lot. EASY CLASS (NEVER BE ABSENT).
he's a good teacher.take him.easy A and B
Rahni was very helpful, nice and polite. Explains the assignments very well and his tests are easy. I highly recomend him.
took this class cause someone told me it was easy..they were wrong, it VERY EASY! I know like nothing abt computers, websites or stuff like that and I got an A (so did most of the ppl in my class). he's a very nice person, just go to class and participate.
To learn from book alone is boring!! Mr. Rahni describe the difficult matters very clear and easy.Very good teacher!!! I had CIS 4 and CIS 32 with him. I recommand him.
Very Very Very hard to understand. He goes very fast everything and doesn't care students, just wanna go home ASAP himself. But grading is Very Easy.
Believe it / not, this is the most dissapointed prof. I've ever taken at SMC. He wasn't willing to help me and gave me the dissapointed grade, which was B. I worked very hard WORKED VERY HARD on this class and he didn't help me. AVOID HIM. I suggest you take Bolandhemat better.
Professor Rahni is one of the best teachers here at SMC. You will learn a lot in his class. The assignments were very easy and fun to do. If you want to take a CIS class, I truly recommend that you take him.
He is a nice teacher, but he is not very clear and hard to understand at times. He has a pretty thick accent which doesn't help any. His helpfulness is somewhat questioanble as he will usually leave the room right @ the end of the period. He does not stay afterwards to help students. I have had to help students that he left behind. Be careful.
Great teacher. He teaches what is required and also teaches you some great useful tricks on using this very productive Office software. Spends much time and repeats information for the not so quick students. You must read & do the work in the book to really understand the depth of the class and to get a very easy A. IRecommendToCommittedStudents.
Mr Rahni is a fabulous teacher! He gives so much extra credits (about 10 points) that you can forget about not scoring As for your tests. He makes everything so clear in class.. especially those tutorials. Just do what he tells you to do and pay attention in class. You'll get A even if u do badly for your exams (true/false questions). good luck!
he's a great teacher. gives lots of extra credit and is really flexible and helpful. i highly recommend you take his class.
Mr. Rahni is one of SMC's best teachers. He is always willing to help and makes sure to review everything he teaches, until each student grasps and UNDERSTANDS the concepts. He is one in a million. DEFINATELY TAKE THIS CLASS. you will only :)
Professor Rahni is great! He is very understanding, and he offers lots of extra credit points to help you boost up your grade. Keep up with the work, and you will do fine in his class!
Professor Rahni is an excellent person!He teaches some great little tricks that makes it faster to work with computers. You will certainly have great fun in his class. It is not a hard class even for international students. If you study for the tests, you will get an A.
Online class sucks. so much work. i think he has gone nuts. dont take online. everone thinks he is great in class, i dont know, never had him. online takes up tons of time. no joke. hours and hours, wants case tutorials, online work. look up the syllubus. ridiculous.
Great Online experience with professor Rahni. Every thing is there. Clear and easily displayed. Of course you have to work hard. He helps you in many ways for example replies to your e-mail right away, extends time for yourwork, etc. He even calls you if you ask. You do the work and he makes sure you earn a good grade. I got "A" and I earned it.
Great teacher and highly qualified. Careful he is a very tricky tester and likes to really see if you are doing the work. Lots of assignments but not over the top. He favors those who really put in the effort, I don’t blame him. Highly recommended.
He is the best professor at the department of Computer Science. He is very clear and helpful. I really recommend this class. Not only you can get an A, but also You will learn a lot in his class. If you just follow his direction, you'll never regret taking his class.
He is the one of the best professors. You will learn a lot more than expected. Highly recommended. I defintely take another computer classes of him.
Dr. Rahni is interested in students as people, and shows this with patience, clarity, and thoroughness. Dr. Rahni is an objective, fair grader. He does NOT like it when students are late or skip class, and the classes are packed with information so it is better to never miss them. You will learn many tips for efficent computer use. TAKE IT!!
very good class, teacher makes it simple to understand and easy to learn the topics necessary to learn in order to pass the class. Gives a lot of extra credit and bonus assignments to help boost your grade. hard not to do good..
Great guy. I had an A going in and didn't do too well on the final. Instead of dropping me to a B he looked at my whole body of work for the class and decided to give me an A. Definitely one of the best instructors at SMC. I highly rec. him.
Dr. Rahni is truly an excellent teacher. He is clear, patient, and is willing to help you outside of class. These qualities are especially important when looking for a professor of computer science. He demystifies programs like Excel and PowerPoint and presents them in an easy-to-follow format. Word of advice: come to every class!!
I was really impressed by Prof. Rahni. I struggle with computers and resent that I have to use them, but I found that his enthusiasm and genuine interest in computers made the subject matter more than palatable. He was perfect for someone like me. I would recommend him as a teacher without question. He's great for early morning classes too.
I came into this class thinking I knew just about everything about computers. I learned new information and I applied it to personal projects I was working on. If you ditch, you will miss so much material! Yeah, it is early in the morning, but take this class anyway.
He is very helpful teacher. He does't get on your case if you miss an assignment. He gives you as much time as you need to turn in assignments. Tests are easy multiple choice. A lot of book tutorial assignments but they are easy. Easy A if you do the work.
He's very patient with students. Though lots of assignments at the beginning of semester, he'll reduce the workload in the last month to let you have enough time to study for the final. And the final isn't that hard cuz it accumulates the previous 4 tests just to see if you get the concept. You won't believe how much you'll learn from his class.
HE has a genuin interest in computers and a genuin interest in teaching his students what he knows
Professor Rhani is very patient with students, he will explain everything clearly but you have to attend to his class meetings in order to understand everything. If you begin by using the text book at his pace you should have no problem in the class. It is a very easy class and his tests are easy too!
He is very nice and knowledgeable professor, He is on time every day with a big smile. You won't feel bored in his class. If you do all the homework and show up on time, he will be very happy and give you good grades. By the way he is very attractive.
He isn't a nice teacher. He goes very fast everything and doesn't care students He is not willing to help sudents and leaves the class after the class right away.
I took Prof. Rahni during fall 2006. I couldn’t be happier with his teaching style. I worked hard all semester and hope it shows in my final grade. It is a class where you actually walk away more knowledgeable rather than with just a grade. Highly recommended!!
Excellent teacher. He comes early and stays after class if you need help. He is very helpful. If you study hard you will learn and earn a good grade. I highly recommend him.
Mr. Rahni is soft-spoken, nice, funny, and helpful. Tests are based on basic knowledge regarding computers -- easy. Projects are kept in a portfolio. He's very organized and makes things easy for his students. Gives you his home phone # in cause you need anything. I learned a lot in the class. He rocks!
If you take his class you will know how he doesn't help you. He leaves the class earier than students.
this prof is very kind and helpfull. he lectures and helps on the projects most of which you finish in class. you will learn a whole lot about comps. the homework is easy, the tests are too. he is a fair grader. if your late a few times he lets you fly. overall a good teacher.
teacher is very sweet, helpful, answers most of your questions, motivates you a lot, and o.k. class isn't that easy however. a lot assignments, specially cases and tutorials that are time consuming. too much work so its best to be in class. tests arent as easy as everyone says. they're tricky. true/false multiple choice. easy B but hard A good luck
He's a very nice Professor. He is very caring, care about his students. A fair professor. Should be easy to get A if u do all the work. It is a very fun class!!
PROF IS NICE, KNOWS HIS STUFF BUT CLASS IS HARD AND TIME CONSUMING. UNHELPFUL WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO THE TESTS AND THE FINAL. MY ADVICE IS TO KEEP UP WITH HIM THATS WHERE TEST QUESTIONS COME FROM. HE GOES VERY FAST IN CLASS DOESN'T WRITE THINGS DOWN MAKING IT VERY HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHAT HES SAYING. BE PREPARED TO DO LOTS OF WORK.DONT RECOMMEND
so helpful!!! i cant even express. if you know how to get on this site, you will have no problem in the class. and the best part, if you do, he is there to help you with it.
Extremely helpful, wants the best for his students and wants to help his students achieve the best grades.
Mr. Rahni was extremely helpful. He made learning about how computers work more interesting than I expected. I was very intimidated by computers and some of the applications (excel, word, powerpoint). Thanks to all his help and wealth of knowledge, I can include these applications on my resume. I highly recommend him!!!
#1 CIS Prof. in SMC
VERY GOOD PROFESSOR!! VERY HELPFUL FUNNY GUY LAID BACK, CLASS WAS VERY FUN AND WORTH MY TIME, I WILL MISS THIS CLASS IS FAIR WITH GRADING! I GOT A B AND DIDNT REALLY TRY
Even though I consider myself computer literate, I took Rahni’s class to learn new ways of using MSOffice, well, I learned tons, he is well organized and he may be the sweetest professor in SMC, highly recommended, some work involved but well worth it, take him, I assure you that you will not regret it. THANK YOU PROFESSOR! LF A SM Business Admin.
Great professor. This is the best introductory computer class you can take. I learned a lot and got an excellent grade. Teacher is knowledgeable, flexible, fair, and caring. The best.
The cutest man!! Very helpful and fair. He wants you to do your best and gives extra credit. I learned a lot but there is a lot of out of class work required. Excellent professor, highly recommend.
I enjoyed myself in his class. To get a good grade, you have to familiarize yourself with the apps. through exercises in the book and there's no other way around it. He gives lots of extra credits to boost your grades and is a lenient grader. To top all that, he's really really nice guy too!
I took his class last semester and i could say he is the BEST instructor I've ever had at SMC so far. I missed couple sessions moreover I didn't hand in portfolio stuff and I got one C and 2 B's on the exams. As a result I received B but he helped a lot to give me A. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone. EASY EASY A++
Easy A ! He gives a lot of extra credits. I took this class in winter session 2008 and got A. There were four exams, and I got two b and two c on the exams but still got A. I don't even know how i got A. I did every extra credit, which was easy to do.
Anyone who had professor Rahni knows how well he teaches. I have an online course with him and I am enjoying it. All my e-mails were answered promptly. Very clear on assignments and requirements. Study and earn a good grade. Of course if you expect to get a good grade without putting any effort class will be horrible !!!.
took his 8 week online class. Great guy! gave out his number to call him if we were confused, answered emails within an hour. very clear on assignments and gratious wih grading. You can't not get an A. take it super guy!
I'm sorry but this class was incredible easy. He doesn't explain things well at all. You don't get any homework and don't even need to buy the textbook. Even if you fail every test he'll give you an awesome grade but you will not learn anything.
Very humane professor, he is willing to help any student. I am in CIS4 winter 09, I would recommend taking this class to anyone.
A very amazing teacher who cares about his students and how they do in his class.
I learned more than I expected. I've learned to create Web pages, use advanced features of Microsoft Office, set-up networks and understand how computers and the Internet work. The knowledge I gained will help me in all aspects of my life. The class was fun and had lots of variety. The prof. was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and friendly.
very helpful class especially for international students. It seems like he understands the difficulty that international students have. He's always kind and gives clear explanation to his students. It is one of the best class to take in the first semester.
Very friendly and helpful professor. Understands his students. You grab a lot of points by completing in-class and outside-class assignments. Best of all, he gives up to 10 bonus points for all the tests. He pushes you up a little bit at the end based on your overall performance. Take him!
Very friendly and helpful professor. He appreciates good performances -- completing all the in-class and outside-class assignments. In addition of that, he will help you to increase your grade by giving out up to 10 bonus points for each test. If you do all the work and respect his effort, there is no reason to get a grade worse than an A.
Professor Rahni is really helpful and always tries to make sure that everyone get a high grade! We had a lot of international students (including me) and he always helped us if we didn't understand anything!Go to class, do the out-of-class assignments and you'll be fine!If you don't understand something- just ask!I highly recommend this class!
Overall he is very straightfoward. He tries to get you a hiher grade by assissting the student as much as possible and having in class projects. If your newto computers i highly suggest this class.
thoughtful,smart, patient, on time great attitude-always available for assistancesuper great teacher!
Mike is a very nice person. He is always there to help. Class can seem to be boring every now and then. Class assignments are very easy. Does not hand out "A"s like he use to. If you are good at computers and really want to be challenged, dont take him. He's more of a laid back person. Over-all class is very chill.
Very helpful, easy class, just make sure you show up at every class session so you won't miss anything. He gives a lot of easy points.
He is very helpful, if you finish the classwork and do well on the tests you will pass the class. I recomend this course to anyone that wants to learn new things about computers.
Prof. Rahni was a great professor. Very courteous and cares that you do well in the class. Only thing that was lacking is clarity in assignments, however if you ask him to clarify he will happily do so.
Prof. Rahni is a great teacher! He is very compassionate in helping students understanding the class.
great guy, great teacher, dedicated to his students and extremely helpful, i had a great experience in this class and he gave us plenty of extra credit assignments and he did a bravo zulu
Professor Rahni did a great job in class, very dedicated to teaching and making sure that everybody follow the program and understands the material. Extra credits available during the course. Very helpful in class (especially for international students) which makes the attendance a pleasant experience. Recommend to anybody!
Very easy.Every test and including the final he gives you bonus points,all you have to do is some easy assignment before the test or exam.You are guaranteed to pass every test.Biggest thing is attendance,make sure you dont miss a class that way you can get all the in-class assignment points which are cake.I got C's on every test but he gave me.....
He gave me an A even though I got a C on all the tests because I didnt miss a class and I turned in all my in-class assignments and did all the extra credit.I also asked a lot of questions so he saw that I was really trying to understand the programs.Buy the book for as cheap as you can because you can do half the assignments and still get ful cred
Mr. Rahni is a lovely man and very knowledgeable in the field. He is very generous with assistance and time to students who are interested in his subject. I took this course in the summer, had tons of homework, learned a lot, loved it.
So.. he's a really nice guy. Unfortunately, his online class was the most confusing and frustrating class I have ever taken. He doesn't explain very well at all. On the bright side, he does extend deadlines and allow late work. Take my advice, if you must take him take him in a classroom setting. You will be left completely clueless online.
Great teacher, very helpful. very nice and is flexible on assignments. assignments are not that hard.
Mr. Rahni is an excellent professor. He is clear and concise on what he wants accomplished. If you attend the class and do homework assigned, you should do very well. Highly recommended!
Really nice teacher who takes the time to make sure that everyone understands what is going so that you don't fall behind. Has a lot of in class assignments everyday, so make sure to show up everyday to not miss a lot of easy points. A lot of resources for your tests, and bonus points to help your grade on them. Great professor to take!!
Good overall. Very nice and helpful. Good computer teacher
Good professor to take the class. Do your work, attend class, and study you will get a good grade. A lot of work to do in this class.
very easy, very generous with extending assignments, learn a lot, and easy A
Offers alot of extra credit. lot of hw so you have to keep up with the reading.
Good professor..goes through the topic of computers in a way you can understand how computers work except he could be more clear on what will be on the exams. He tell you to read the chapters and do the tutorials and go online to read information but doesnt go over what will be on the exam in specific.
Great professor.Took during the summer and it just went by really click. He gives a lot of extra points.The exams are no hard. He is really helpful. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Hot and easy......Great a.s.s.....
i learn many interesting topic about Microsoft office 2007 that make computer related assignment a breeze. Teacher is understanding and Helpful. He require alot of easy outside work but he allows late work.
Its a pretty easy class but I am not so good or advanced with computers, so i get lost every once in a while. Other than its a chill class and i am actually learning a few new things/ tricks about computers. I would recomend taking this class with him.
Was a relatively easy class. Enjoyed it.
This class was very helpful i liked it, it was an easy A. I dont know how people could fail such a class like this. He takes his time out to help you understand. (:
I am very computer/technology challenged. Difficulty for tclass was average.I wish he would write what is due on the board. The book is extremely easy to read and understand for someone who is computer challenged. Book helped more than the prof but prof helps you if you have any questions. He's very patient and lenient.
Great Professor!! Very nice guy and he makes the class fun!! Definitely recommend taking him!! You will love him.
This class was very helpful to me. The professor is very nice and always willing to help when needed. He is very smart and was quite lenient. Overall very happy I took this class and would really recommend it.
best Teacher ever,, relly helpful
Great Teacher =]Easy to earn an A if you pay attension to all classes!!
Dope proffesor, he is willing to give you a couple extra days to turn in late work without deducting points, very humble and knowledgeable. This vato is highly recommended. A+
GOOD TEACHER
Very easy, helpful teacher. Deff recomend. Easy A :D
Awsome Teacher!!! An easy going guy who is very understanding. Very helpful and patient to students who need a little more time to get all the information in. His class is very helpful and useful. I Highly recommend this teacher to anyone who wants to learn about computer concepts.
Really friendly teacher! :)
Hes just so darn cute!
Mr.Rahni is really nice if you are unable to turn in your work on time he allows you to turn it in later with no penalty. To get an A you really have to keep up with the reading assignments to get a good grade on the tests. Classwork is very easy to understand and perform.
Excellent teacher! He cares about the students and puts a lot of efforts in the class. He's really not hard at all. Chill teacher. I really enjoyed the class. He keeps his lectures interesting, but more importantly he has a passion for teaching. I would recommended this class to anyone who is interested in learning more about computers.
mr.rahni is a really good teacher he helped get through this class i wanted to drop in the begining but it was worth staying after all thanks to mr.rahni i learned alot great person really proffesional and its a easy class once you listen to what he is saying.
AMAZZIINNGGG!!!!!......He really cares abou a student's success in the classroom. He is very helpful and very knowledgeable. I definately recommend him to anyone!!
He is a fantastic proffessor...Easy and helpful at the same tame,,,,,Even though it was a 8;00 AM class, I enhoyed it and looked forward to it.... He is extremely nice and great.!!!
Excellent teacher. He really cares about a student's success in the classroom.
He is a fantastic proffessor...Easy and helpful at the same tame,,,,,Even though it was a 8;00 AM class, I enhoyed it and looked forward to it.... He is extremely nice and great.!!!
Omg! Mr.Rahni is the greatest! he is super nice. you don't even have to do much in this class. Its pure common sense...Exams are easy left the class with a B
(CIS4) Great professor, very kind, very helpful ( all you gotta do is ask). He very much cares about the students, and appreciates when you work hard and do your best. You should to attend every class, you get points every single day for in-class assignments, so don't miss a day! And keep a good portfolio of all the notes and assignment!
Great teacher, concise and to the point. Very helpful and easy to understand.
Very helpful. Gives extra credit and accepts latework for partial credit.
Very Straightforward class. As long as you attend and pay attention you should do fine. Very laid back class and professor does not nitpick. Would highly reccomend this class to learn basic computer applications.
Professor Rahni is an extremelly knowledgeable scholar who has been working in the field for so many years. Yet he has a lack of focus during class as well as a complete abstenancy of using the text book, which is only required to the first 2 quizzes and a few exercises. Only take if you are majoring in CS or it`s your last option.
Great Professor. Covers the course materials in a very intersting way. presents the contents according to the text books required for the class. A lot of work from the books and online sites. very fair and caring. Highly recommended.
nice, helpful teacher. if you show up everyday and turn in all your work you can get a C. There is no real way to know what is going to be on exams so they are tuff.
nice guy, but his grading system made C/D students get As, while average B students stayed with a B? Maybe its cuz he offers a lot of extra credit, which is nice, but classes are just stuck writing terms down. His tests are mostly T/F, and you would think thats easy but its tricky. He's a nice guy though, still recommend it.
Excellent professor. He has different types of tests including true-false, multiple-choice, and hands-on assessments. You learn something valuable every day. Texts are used on a regular basis. Fair grader. Highly recommend
Great professor and overall an amazing human being. He has a son who is in college so be understands his students needs. He extends his deadlines and is very helpful. He's not a stickler for attendance or lateness. He is a fair grader there is a decent amount of paperwork so the book is a must have! Overall take this class!
I had him last summer, it was a class of a lot of homework and readings, but everything is helpful. Professor Ranhi is so clear and explain everything very well, he is so kind, and I will always appreciate his teaching. He has inspired me to keep working hard for to accomplish the goals I have. Thanks a lot Mr. Ranhi, you are the best!
Outstanding teacher. He teaches in a way where everything is applicable and you will need it. Easy grading system andn tests are a breeze. If you take him, you won't regret it.
Mr, Rahni is an excellent professor. He is extremely friendly, clear, and helpful. He wants you to do well and gives you every opportunity to do so, but you must pay attention and put in the work. I highly reccomend taking him and I will most certainly for my future computer courses.
I love professor Rahni! He was very patient and took the time to help and explain to his students. He helps your grade and gives extra credit when needed. He is very clear about his expectations and what will be on the test and final. I would definitely recommend him because you learn a lot and he is very knowledgeable about what he is teaching.
As a business major requirement, many people already know how to use a computer and groan at the thought of having to take an intro computer course, but this class is really great. Rahni relates many parts of the course to the world of business, and its a straight forward class. He's there to help if you have any trouble grade wise or material.
Professor Rahni was always willing to work with students to help them with their grades and he wants you to succeed! take him!
Very knowledgeable professor with a lot of experience. He is always in a good mood. His test can be a bit tricky but he gives a lot of extra credit assignments. Overall, I learned a lot in this class. He also shares philosophical/life advice, which is very inspiring. Would take again!
This professor knows all the in's and out's about the computer world! He is a man ladened with knowledge. I walked into his computer class completely oblivious and walked out with enough knowledge to register for CIS 4! I would have never thought this day would occur?
Professor is a successful business expert. You can learn a lot from any of his classes. A lot of people miss that because they usually don't know what they want to do in business. Also if you try extra hard in his class. You cannot lose. You will use every bit of your knowledge in your furture.
Good teacher. Easy pass even if you skip a few classes, I took him during winter CIS 1 class.. the class teaches you basic stuff and Professor Rahni does a great job of teaching it. He's also very nice and understanding which helps for students who are busy or sick often.
Professor Rahni is very inspirational and makes the class fun and upbeat. He is easy to get in touch with and helps with the class projects. He is very thorough and makes the lessons enjoyable. I love his style of teaching and have taken 4 of his classes. I am attending my college with is close to my house I will greatly miss him. Best wishes.
What can I say this class has been enjoyable and pretty easy. I learned quite a few tricks that i can use on the daily basis and on special projects. If you want to get into computer science and want someone with experience then this professor may be able to help you and maybe give you some connections.
Just try everything and stay in touch with him when you are out of class. Also, read, read, and read. Then use google when the test becomes too hard.
very good guy. Just a lot of assignments in the summer class and not a lot of clarification on test questions. taking the final and still getting questions wrong that I did on the first exam. if you are interested in computers take this course because you will like it and mr rahni(really nice guy)
It is an easy course and you learn a lot if you pay the bare minimum of attention.
He is an amazing teacher.
Professor Michael Rahni is a great teacher. His lecture's are interesting and he is very understanding to the non-traditional students. He didn't just teach from a textbook, he taught us real world application for many types of software, tools, coding and many other.
Textbook reading is not required for this class, but you will learn valuable skills or knowledge to not only aid you in this class, but in the future as well.
Michael Rahni is a good man and a great professor. He has a lot of insight into the "real world" and wants the best for his students in regards to both their academic success, and life situations. He is kind and caring, and is passionate about all subjects he teaches. Rahni has been in the school system for 35+ years and still keeps up w/ the kids!
Professor Rahni is a very understanding and compassionate teacher. Is always willing to extend assignments, and will extend the assignment for the whole class if needed. Is a great teachers that explains the concepts with real-life examples to help understanding. However, the test are very tricky and can be treacherous if one is not careful
Dude this guy is great like really great class great environment its easy just stay on the deadlines and take good notes on what he says. Listen to what he has to say if you want to go somewhere in life keep this man in your contacts very valuable
this professor is very good and kind for help you.
It's an easy class and he is great professor. He gives out extra credit and accepts late work. He lets students have a chance to pass the class by opening late assignments and change their due date.
Prof Rahni is very fair and caring and enjoys teaching and will work with you if you're having trouble. The class is a lot of reading if you don't know computers but if you know a little or a lot it's will not be too bad.
Professor Rahni's class was very fun for me, he not only taught the subject, but also gave examples of his experiences and observations on how computers helped others become very very successful. Getting an A in the class is tough during the summer, however if you have the textbook you will be good because the textbook and his lectures are good.
Professor Rhani is easy-going and communicative. He gives people chances to turn in their hw despite the deadline. Tests and quizzes are online and tricky: watch the wording. Extra credit is given. Overall, he's a great professor.
Its a great class, professor isn't demanding that your punctual just that you care and at least try. Work is moderate and test are 6 or so final wasn't stressful. I will say i do have prior knowledge of computer class but I still learned quite a bit and its a valuable class is you want to learn more in dept on computers.
too much homework
It seems as a lesson for advanced stages and does not suit students with low English
the professors is very professional
the professor is very good teacher, What a fascinating and informative professor! You will always be engaged by his lectures and by the time you are finished with her class, you will be able to learn how to appropriately make outlines/ speeches and have good public speaking skills in one class. he is willing to help
Professor Rahni is A great professor to have for all computer classes. I had him for different classes including business communications. He is willing to help when he see the student is working hard for the class and he always offer great help. He encourage the students to attend the class and participate in class, do all the work that is assigned
I loved Professor Rahni, he's very well-informed and made class so interesting. He really cares about his students and wants them to succeed, i regret missing class as much as I did, only because of how cool he was. The only thing i would change is his lectures, i tend to lose focus quickly, i wish there would have been more hands -on in class.
Great Professor. The course is well organized. The professor wants you to learn the skills. He will give you many opportunities to complete and submit your work. Highly recommended
