Laid back teaching style, always late to class, slightly unorganized, but FUN!
She was one of the best teachers I've had. Too bad it was for such a cake class!
She was the best teacher I've had at U of D. Class is easy and she makes it fun
Very nice, all notes on powerpoint. Gives out helpful practice tests.
GREAT LADY! Just take notes in class, easy projects, helpful, easy course! Take
The nicest prof I've had! The class is easy and she's always willing to help you
Extremely effective at teaching software to you
Best professor I've had at Udel! Do the projects, take notes and you'll do fine
MOST INCREDIBLE TEACHER! But, ACCT261 is VERY STRESSFUL and a POINTLESS CLASS!!
Great person that actually cares.
HORRIBLE CLASS. DO ANYTHING YOU CAN NOT TO TAKE IT. CHANGE YOUR MAJOR IF U MUST
Easy Teacher. A lot of work for small pt. scale makes your work seem pointless.
very helpful, very clear, all 160 classes are the same material

You're a moron if you don't do great in this class. Very sweet, motherly type.
Nicest teacher ever, take notes, and do projects. you'll be fine
fantastic
Good teacher...class reminds me of highschool tech ed
Boring class but nice and helpful lady. She definitely cares about students.
She's an awesome lady and the class is very easy. Take good notes and you will do good on the tests and the projects are really easy
Take this class. She is the best. Awesome teacher and always available to help. Do projects and you'll be fine!
Sweet as pie, but class is boring. At least she's enthusiastic about it.
easy class; test ?'s are from the book; projects are easy; try to take the class early b/c she's never on time!
She's great, very friendly, projects are guaranteed 100%s, quizzes easy, tests kiiinda difficult but you can get like Cs on all of them and still get an A in the class with the other stuff.. she gives away the final exam..easy A!
If the class was any easier she would take the test for you.
Soooo great...so helpful and EASY. Just take it with her.
Consider yourself lucky to have her! Great lady and very understanding. Do nothing and get a B, do the work on time and get an easy A
take wright, she's the best. davidson does not care about her students and is a horrible professor...do not take her at all costs!
WE LOVE YOU... best ACCT teacher ever
She is without a doubt, one of the most knowledgeable professors at UD, especially in the ACCT dept. She makes certain her students understand the material and is always there for questions after class or in her office. Take course with her.
Teacher: THE single, nicest teacher at UD. Knows everyone's names Class: THE single, easiest class required for business students. Guaranteed B+ or better.
SPRING IS AWESOME- SO EASY AND HELPFUL. JUST DONT PROCRASTINATE OR YOU WILL DO BAD. IF YOU TRY, SHE WILL REWARD YOU FOR YOUR EFFORT!
She is soooo nice. Do the work and you will get a good grade. Projects can be long but they are easy. She gives the final away at the last class.
She's a very nice lady who is willing to help out. However, she is not a good teacher, no matter what all the ratings say. She didn't really teach certain things very well in 160 that she expects us to know automatically for the huge projects we do.

Easy A or B. Cool lady!
Spring is a total sweetheart. Very willing to help and push back project due dates. First two exams are a lot of info, but if you study word definitions from the book you should be okay. Definitely recommend her over other professors.
Spring is super nice, and helpful but exams are a lot of material from the book. Classes pretty boring, and just note taking after note taking. Mini projects boost up grade
Awsome teacher who loves to help her students, highly recommend her!
Excellent teacher, very clear, moves slowly through material so that everyone (computer-literate and illiterate) can keep up. She's incredibly helpful, friendly, and enjoyable to be in class with. Class might be slow/boring for those with computer skills but hey, it's an easy A! :)
If you can take then do it! Very helpful and actually listens to you if you are having trouble. Get to know her, she is an amazing person. Classes sometimes get canceled as well.
Very nice and helpful teacher. She will always tell you what you need to know ahead of time. The subject is so boring but she presents it well. thumbs up.
Spring is great! So helpful, easy A if you listen, will always make time and work around both of your schedules...
I knew some of the material before and expected it to be a boring class, but it turned out fairly well. Spring does a great job of presenting the material and helping you when you need it. If you need to take acct160, I would definately try to get into her class.
Two parts of the class: Technology & Learning to use programs. Technology=boring and dry but you have to go to class for the quizzes. Learning to use the programs is interesting and easy to get A's - open book tests. And even as boring as the technology is, Spring can be a very funny lady
I took the 1 meeting/week section...big mistake! If you know ANYTHING about computer hardware and software, lectures will bore you to death. Tests and quizzes focus on concepts/vocabulary, so READ THE BOOK! Projects are a breeze, and she's always willing to help you. Overall, great professor, but I think she should teach a more advanced class.
Ok, if you're about to take 261, just know that the class is a pain in the a$$. Seriously, now the teacher on the other hand isn't that bad. She'll help you if you need it and she's a pretty fair grader. It's just she's SO LAZY. Do not expect to get projects or test grades back ANYtime after turning them in, it just won't happen. Nice/LAZY.
Pretty good teacher. Don't go to class, keep up with projects and make sure you get a hundred on them so you can bomb the written tests cause they are HARD. End up with a high B or low A. Not bad.
BORING class, tells you how lazy she is everyday, projects all the time, written exams hard. Take 261 w/Monk.
Very Very helpful teacher. Wants to see every student do well. Always willing to help you no matter if it is after class, before, or if you just run into her somewhere. Go to class, pay attention, do projects and tests are a peice of cakse. I finished an computer test in under 10 minutes and got a 98 avg.
Really nice teacher but class is just a joke. Recommend going to her office hours during one of the projects and just getting to know her. Shell help you with your project and probably your final grade. Projects are long and boring. Shes lazy at returning work. Overall nice lady kinda stupid class and just an easy A if you do a little work
love her, love everything about her, thinking of being her for Halloween
First off, love the previous comment. Spring is the best for both 160/261. Really nice!! Her tests took me no longer than 5 minutes then I went home. I actually use some excel and access stuff with my job/other classes. Approachable about problems, she cares about you if you go to class/put effort in work.
very nice and is always willing to help. hardest exams are the book exams. other exams are easy if you know your access and excel which you will once your done doing the projects each week. projects take 1-2 hrs, one a week. not bad at all..
She's got a screenname, you can IM her, and she helps you just like that. Very easy. The only reason I got a B+ and not an A is b/c of those textbook tests... make sure you study the book for those or you'll get in the 60-70s.
She is a good teacher and I found her easily to talk to. If you are willing to work hard she is willing to "hold you hand" through hard assignments. I think her strengths in this class were that she was learning it at the same time we were, so unlike most professors she did have not have a disconnect to the difficulty of learning V.B.

Great and fun prof. She's always available for help either in person, i/m or email. Just study vocab for book exams and there is no way you cant pass w/ an A if you do all the homework and such
Spring is a really cool teacher and she's extremely nice. She's really funny and wants her students to do well. There are a lot of little projects but as long as you follow the steps in the book they are really easy and some of them you can fix and resubmit for a better grade. The tests are hard but she helps a lot for the final.
boring class but easy to do moderately well. projects pretty time consuming but no choice regardless of teacher, and spring is at least nice.
Spring Davidson is the nicest person! she is very down to earth and understanding, but she expects you to do your work. She is late to class almost every day so she understands, and she makes the material understandable. I never read the book and got an A-. Make sure you know EXCEL or know someone who knows it!!! weekly excel assignments, but that'
I absolutly hated her, and the class, worthless tangents and projects. Not a hard class though but she isn't a good teacher.
i thought she seemed incredibly fake. kind of like she wants you to think she cares or something. also, she lacks the ability to teach effectively. This class is easy for most people because the material is easy. NOT BECAUSE SPRING IS A GOOD TEACHER. so... pick a different prof.
Worst teacher I have ever had, the class is a joke and easy but if you can take someone else then take them.
Really nice lady, class is boring though and you probably dont need to go to it, just do the casegraders and you should get an A
If ur taking MIS-160 and its between davidson and monk go for davidson bc she is the nicer of the two ladies. The assignments you have to complete on the computer aren't hard but some of the written exams from the textbook can get kind of tricky. Attendance is not neccesary bc she reads off powerpoints that are posted online. Getting an A not hard
Very lazy teacher.. boring. I don't understand ppl saying the class was easy last year. It was a lot of memorization.
She was late to class like 90% of the time. You do not need to go to class, power points are online, she reads off them verbatim. It is a fairly easy A. Very approachable, but you just have to hope she shows up to her office hours(shes late to them too).
She cant teach. She'll just give you projects and expect you to know how to do them. I wish I had taken another teacher!
This is a fairly easy course. If you have used excel and power point you already have an 100% for 1/2 the class. All of the quizes/tests on the computer stuff is extremely easy. You can take your notes and text book. The only hard aspectof this course is the textbook tests. They are hard due to not being written by computer people.
Easiest Class if your good with computers. If you are really good with computers, she'll let you skip half of the classes because you know the info anyway. ALOT of homework, but easy, simply follow step by step directions and you'll get an B+ in the class. You can spend 2-5 hours a week on homework.
Great teacher, very helpful and easy to understand, responds to email questions quickly. Very funny. A good amount of online work, but great class overall.
A lot of assignments, but none of them are very difficult. Davidson is good at explaining the office software and I really learned a lot. The material outside of the software is a bit more dense, but Davidson does her best to make it interesting. Posts lecture PowerPoint's online. Willing to adjust due dates. Could earn an A without too much effort
LOVE this professor. She is by far one of the best professors i have had at UD. Spring is helpful and always at office hours. She is really interested in the information and loves teaching it to students. Definitely recommend taking her class!!
by far one of the best teachers at ud. easily approachable and very helpful outside of class. understand the material and makes sure you do too. great teacher
Very nice lady, but lazy at the same time. Teaches the computer software decently, but just reads off powerpoint slides for the textbook material. A lot of assignments (not to tough), and the software exams are pretty easy. Book exams are difficult because you have to teach yourself that material. Not the worst, but not the greatest either
SOOOOO Lazy. She is 10 minutes late to every class... and she is extremely boring. She rambles on about powerpoint slides on a chapter she already made us take the quiz on two weeks prior. An easy Class, but not because she does her job well.
I did well in this class because I taught myself. She does NOT teach. She is Lazy with a capital LAZY!!!
not such a great teacher but is always there to help you afterward. tests and projects are fair and she's actually pretty funny
SUPER AWESOME PERSON!!! best teacher EVER!!!
Wonderful lady. Really nice. Enjoys life but sometimes gets a little "spacey" in class. She'll even admit she has the attention span of fly. Lecture days are boring and you don't need to go if you review the text book before the written tests. I would go on all Lab days though to learn the new program. Lab projects are okay. Work with a friend.
Spring is a great professor! She know's her stuff but isn't exactly the BEST at getting it across, can tend to be a bit scatterbrained but overall is an excellent professor. Really cares about students understanding material & is super helpful in office hours. Class is easy if you put effort into it.
The software exams are easy and the textbook ones are challenging so try to keep up with the readings. She is a good teacher overall, she tends to be late a lot but she is nice and will help you with any questions or concerns.
Stay away. She gives a ridiculous amount of projects and exams, she expects you to remember everything from MISY160, and she doesn't teach anything. She comes in late all the time.
Terrible, stay away if you can! I go to class every day & pay attention & she does not teach at all! I had to completely teach myself how to do everything for all of the projects. When we asked what was the best way to study for her written exams, her response was "Oh, I dont really know...." Nice lady, terrible prof.
Stay away!She never teach,you have to do all the projects without her teaching.She except this course's average grade is C. Never curve and no extra credit. she always came to class 5-10 mins late. and some times even 20-30mins late.
Talk about a hard class. I'll be lucky if I end up getting credit for this course let alone a good mark for my GPA. She comes late to every class, doesn't really teach. Go to her office hours WHILE you're doing the project to get by on projects and what not. Little textbook use. I don't recommend her or the MISY minor. STAY AWAY. She is nice though
AVOID. I seriously can't understand how she has such a good rating. She doesn't ever teach/review the Access/Excel stuff and just tests you on it expecting you to remember everything. She comes to class 20 minutes late. The instructions on the computer exams and her projects are very vague and difficult to understand. She gives 6 exams 7 projects.
Hard.hard.hard.the smart people in my group got me my grade. She didnt want to help.
Very self-centered, does not teach, and ignores students who have any problems. Worst experience of my life staying in this class.
Do the assignments early and go to her during office hours. Keep up with the readings as they will be tested on and usually lectures are focused on the assignments not the readings. Easy if you have interest in IT.
In four years, one of the worst classes I have ever taken. She says she'll go slow and make sure everybody understands everything at the beginning of the semester. However, project and assignment instructions can be extremely vague, and you'll find yourself guessing on what exactly she wants. Work hard and you'll get a B...maybe
The assignments are easy, just follow instructions in the books. Mostly basic Office stuff that you should know already. Redo homework and spend some extra time with her during office hour before exams and its an easy A
The class itself is really easy and Spring is a really laid back professor. She let my friend and I take an exam on a different day because we wanted to go to a concert. She does show up late every day, though..
This class WAS EXTREMELY EASY!!! Don't believe the people who say it's hard. I only came to class on days of exams...which are almost every other Friday. The exams are mad easy nothing to worry about at all! She curves!!!!! Just do the work and you're fine. The class is 1000 POINTS! Easy easy easy A+
One of the best professors Ive had a UD. So laid back, I actually took a class that conficted with hers so she let me take the tests when it was best for me. I don't know what the fool below me was thinking, he was probably one of the students that got plagerizing which is hilarious because all of her tests are open book. Take her!
spring is a very nice lady who doesn't care if you show up. Her test are long and ridiculous and all there are so many unnecessary projects that are just a waste of time and are there to help you learn the material but they don't. You just really need to know your stuff to do well in this class.
Attendance isn't mandatory. A lot of material to cover, so her lectures are vague. Definitely need to read and take notes. She puts up practice quizzes and uses a lot of questions on those for the test. A lot of homework, but it's relatively easy, just takes time. Excel and Access exams are open book.
Took for MISY160. She shows up late every single day. and i mean EVERY day. a little forgetful and confused, attendance is not mandatory or necessary by any means (except when you are learning access/excel, or the class before an exam). but she is nice. definitely take if you would like an easier A or to learn how to make a spreadsheet
She was very nice and pretty clear. Easy class, just do the work. If you go to talk to her she is helpful, but she is a bit of a stickler for the university's rules, so don't miss an exam.
