Worst teacher in Houston. Her grading system is really unfair. She gave everybody different questions on the exam. Which is unfair because on some questions you can write more and some u can not write anything other than defination. Some questions are easy and some are hard. But she could not understand that because she does not have common sence.

Tests are on WebCT in the computer lab and most of the questions, which are multiple choice come from the practive quizzes. She also gives extra credit.

Took her for winter mini. She is quite responsive and friendly in her repsonses. Easy grader and gives 100's away freely on projects and assignments. Course consists of: 2 exams (proctored & no resources), 1 final, 1 easy team project, written letter, a handful of easy discussions, 4 ITLAB assignments, and a few easy dozen MISlab assignments.

ALL tests, quizzes and even PRACTICE quizzes are on lockdown browser with camera, and thats ridiculous. Forget everything you've read here, this professor isnt easy and she and the instructor Yiy-Yaw make you work for your grade, you miss work, you get a zero, I am glad I'm done with it, they expect people to major in MIS which is downgrading...

The professor obviously takes this class too seriously. The book and the lab have nothing to do with each other the lab is all Microsoft and the book is workplace etiquette. All of the test are using lockdown browser with a camera which is plain ridiculous. The final has to be taken at a proctored site, (stupid) why not lockdown browser again?

I took this class online and it was ridiculously hard. For all quizzes and tests you have to use lockdown browser. Professor lets you use notes, however it is useless since the quizzes and tests are nothing like the homework/lectures. It's never clear what you are being tested on. Professor is also a tough grader (even with discussion boards!!!).

She turns an easy class into hard work. I had to take this course twice. I failed it the first time because of my group project. Apparently we should have met more often, we had to submit pictures together. That is impossible with full time jobs and families and school. She also give really tedious papers, tests and labs.
