Dont bother to take her class unless you already have mastered computers. Has no respect for students and tests them before material is taught.You might as well buy the $6 book and learn yourself and exempt. Not worth the gpa risk for a 1 credit class.
Had attitude toward students the first day. Very difficult to deal with.
She doesn't want you coming in with the attitude that you know everything already, but if you're open and willing to listen and learn ( and you let her know that) about computers, she's very patient and helpful. The course material is pretty cut and dried
She was mean from the first moment i walked in the class. This class was very easy for me, and she offered extra credit. Not hard at all to get an 'A'
Passed her exemption test, was fairly easy, Word, Powerpoint, and how to look up items using GALILEO and GIL, if you have done this before you should have no prob. exempting
She is nothing but mean
Her personality is a little abrasive, but she got me using power point comfortably, and I was pretty much tech-impared before that, so she's ok in my book. The text book reads like stereo instructions.
nice, good at answering questions, could be a little clearer, not overly easy.

She's really easy if you go to class. She has everything that you need to do on her website and when the project is due. She gives a quiz once a week and that's it, there are no tests! Only projects and quizzes. The class was the easiest A that was ever handed to me!
Enjoyed class. Competent and easy going teacher.
At first, I did not think I would like her, but she is just different. The class is not difficult, but she is meticulous! She has a strange sense of humor, but she was very helpful, and I learned alot!
Somewhat abarisve and could be clearer. Other than that, she is great. Everything you need to know is on her website. She is not overly easy.
She has a strange personality. Very easy class. Quiz each week and no tests. Make sure you attend class otherwise you will miss weekly assignments.
Instructions are not very clear. Helps some students more than others. If you do not have some knowlege about computers, I do not recomend you to take this class. I had a lot of questions- did not get an answer on many of them (I felt ignored many times).
she seems to be nice. she is definantly different than normal. her instructions are hard to understand.
She worries about all the nit-picky things and not about the basic importances of computers and its a really boring class. I think it was stupid and she needs to learn how to teach it much better. She stunk!!!
easy class!!! She is unclear in instructions but the easyness of the class makes it so it does not matter!! You will learn nothing new in this class.
class is easy, but she makes it difficult. for example, easy quizes everyday for the first 10min of class. you can't be late for quiz or 0. very picky teacher for a half semester class!
This is by far the worst class I have ever taken. She should go teach something else. I do not recommend her.
She is a strange teacher, but she get's the job done. The class is not hard at all, all you need to do is listen to her directions and you'll be fine. Dont be late to class, because there is usually a quiz.
Although this course only has 1 credit, there are a lot of assigment and quizzes. She taught very fast and unclear. However, if you follow her directions, you sure can past.
Steer clear of this 'cute little' teacher's 'cute little' class. She'll give you a 'cute little' headache from saying 'cute little' so much.
What a terrible class. She makes no effort to help students at all. She makes seemingly easy assignments difficult.
she was sarcastic and mean from day one. Luckily, I made an A on the exemption test and never had to go back to the class.
unless your middle age, and didnt grow up around computers, this crap should be asy, its review from HS. Stop whining
This woman is just overall wierd but she knows what she's taking about.
This teacher makes learning very difficult. She frustrates students a lot. Which good teacher would say"do this or you will get a zero"? Teachers are supposed to help students not to intimidate them. hello? I am surprised she is still teaching at GPC. How can GPC let her do this to students.
Most of the class was assignments completed in class. If you read the book and completed the assignments then this class was easy. The quizzes were like extra credit beyond the assignments. If you had questions in class then she would answer them.
the test on the first day is EASY...Just know powerpoint, word and how to find articles on GALILEO.

Run as fast as feet will allow you! Don't think of asking a quetion in this class, you should already know. Make sure you test out on day one if happen to get her!
Sure she is sarcastic and sometimes a little mean to people but she seemed to love me so it wasnt really a problem. I couldnt test out because I was trying to do mine and the girl next to me because she was clueless when it came to MS Office appz. If you don't test out, and are failing, you can take the test for credid again at the end for grade.
If you read the book you should be fine, don't blame the professor for laziness. There were several people in my class that struggled, but when I spoke to them it was clear they had not taken the time to read the material. The class was easy and I learned something, I would take take another class with Ms. Jones.
NOT COOL, WHAT A BIT**. WE TOOK A TEST TO SEE IF WE COULD EXEMPT, MY COMP FROZE 3X'S AND SHE GAVE ME NO EXTRA TIME, JUST SHRUGGED HERSHOULDERS AND SAID *SORRY*, WHAT A DIK*
I think more than anything else the subject matter just sucks. If there is any way you can escape taking ths class i would. Extremely boring and annoying but it's a pretty easy A in the end. Her presence in the room really didnt make a difference to be honest. I learned nothing new/interesting. In fact, i am writing this during class ha.
SHE IS THE WORST TEACHER EVER!!! DONT TAKE HER. SHE GIVES U 25 MINUTES TO TAKE AN HOUR LONG CREDIT TEST SHE TALKS TO U LIKE U ARE AN IDIOT AND SHE IS NOT HELPFUL AT ALL. IF U ARE ONE MINUTE LATE U CANT TAKE THE QUIZ AND U CAN ONLY MAKE AN A OR AN F IN HER CLASS. AVOID HER LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!
She was absolutely the worst teacher i have ever had. She will not help you or even try to expain anything to you. I hated this class.
class was too short to have any serious comments.
very boring, grades hw very strict, not a fun class at all.
PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF! TAKE SOMEONE ELSE! SHE IS AS NICE AS CAN BE BUT SHE IS BY FAR THE WORST TEST WRITER! HER TESTS ARE EXTREMELY HARD AND STUPID! CAN'T FIND ANYONE ELSE? WAIT TILL NEXT TIME. SAVE YOURSELF FROM AN F.
Mrs. Jones does not care about the students. She goes over every thing once and thats it. Her help is not helpful and I don't recommend taking Mrs. Jones for ATEC.
She is a fair teacher.2 bad the material isn't interesting.She goes over most of the stuff from the book and does all of the assignments step-by-step in class.U still have to read the material for a few minutes 2 do well on the quizzes.Don't be late on a quiz day.All assignments are due by 10:00pm on that due date.She will let U re-do some asnmts.
Ms.Jones seems to live in a world of her own,she seems to be a very melancholic person. True she is strict with homeworks and due dates, yet she isn't the wicked witch Glenda. She Actually will hear you out,and she understands problems.Give her a chance sit in the front of the classroom,be attentive,do homeworks on time and you'l get an A easily.
Ms. Jones is really not that bad she just expects things to be done on time and right!
this professor is so oblivious, she is in her own little world. she tries to make jokes but they just arent funny at all it just makes you realize how old she is. oh and i hope that nobody dies in your family during this class because you'll have to bring in a copy of the DEATH CERTIFICATE before she'll let you make up assignments.
Ms. Jones is a good teacher, she gives very little homework and is willing to help when needed. She is straight forward with her assignments and taught the class well, i would take her again.
WORST TEACHER EVER!!! She makes thing soooo much harder than they really are and really unfail. All projects are done off of a rubric and therer are NO examples. If can avoid her DO SO!!!
I have a bachelor's degree in CS. I had to take ATEC1203 for another major. Speaking from experience of having many many professors in my lifetime, this could possibly be THE worst teacher on the planet. My wife and school teacher of 6 years agrees with me on this. Veanne Jones teaches with the philosiphy that everyone is stupid. DO NOT TAKE h
RUN!!! GET AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE!!! THIS TEACHER IS THE WORST IN THE WORLD!!! SHE THINKS EVERYONE IS RETARDED AND SHE IS VERY VERY UNHELPFUL!!! ITS LIKE SHE WANTS HER STUDENTS TO FAIL!!!
Only a teacher like this one can take a subject so easy and make it so difficult. She always seems to be having a bad day. She is very negative, and that carries over onto her teaching skills. Or lack there of. She never pauses to ask if anyone has any questions. Don't dare bother her by asking questions in class. Takes forever to ans. emails
This teacher will fail you for her own personal pleasure it seems. If you ask her a question she will make you feel like a****in front of the class. She seems to be having a bad day every day. All around she is just a horable teacher. Get out wile you still can. Save yourself from a F!!!
she's very nice. Its only the people that dont show up in class that fails. You can either pass with and a or fail... Do what your suppose to do and you'll make the grade. She'll help you in anyway that she can.
Just go to class and the work is completed in class. Detailed instructions are in WebCT. She goes by a point system and uses a rubric to grade.
This is a pass or fail course. Either you get an A or you get an F. Do all of the assignments . She gives you a rubric so you can get the maximum amount of points that she is offering on each assignment. There are no surprises and she lets you know exactly what she is looking for. Great Professor!!
Talk like your stupid..but this class is pretty simple just show up for class n you'll pass
This women is nuts! She makes this 1 cedit course seem like a life a death situation! DO NOT recommend her!!!

EASY Take her
Anal retentive but easy course. All work is done in class if you show up and keep up!
Exemption on first day was really easy. I didn't think I would pass it, but I did and GTFO the class.
Excellent instructor. Really knows her material. She has a funny sense of humor. I would take another class from her.
She was a decent teacher..I hated the class because of all the morons in it though. She had to constantly stop and help people with the dumbest little things. I didn't manage to pass the exemption test because of the time limit, but if you took word processing in high school, this class is a joke.
she is very nice if you just give her a chance and she will help you tremendously if you just ask! the work is not hard either
She wants you to suceed in your career of choice. Group presentations about different cultures were interesting. Just attend class and participate in the discussions.
Her class is so easy and she helps everybody a lot. easy quizzes and tests.
She was Understanding about difficulty with learning.
I took this class online and she didn't respond in timely matter. She was unclear on her assignments and this was my first online class. After all of that, I did get an A but it was because the students were helpful to each other. She just takes too long to get back in my opinion.
I took the online class and it is very easy. You get alot of extra credit points toward your score, so that helps out alot. I would recomend her if you want to get an easy A!!
Option 2 test out 1st day check out webct b4 class. Shes boring sarcastic & jus got on my nerves! Almost made me fail bcuz she deleted my CW then tried to make ME seem like the ass as if I didnt upload it right! Can only get an A or F 4 the class. jus do all the work. You can take the test out quiz @ end again if u fail the class. if you can.. RUN!
Do not take this Instructor! She is rude,anal and needs to retire! She makes a one credit basic research class feel like your taking Advanced Calculus!
run, run, run, FAST! This class is HARD! Ms. Jones does not like students, wait until another teacher is available, she is tough, please do not miss any days or else----
Run, do not walk, do not pass go, do not collect $200 this class is not worth it. She does not teach you are on you own. You've been warned.
Most of the course was easy if you followed the instructions provided. An easy A if you looked at the examples in Vista. There were some neat games to help with the quizzes.
nice online teacher. expected the best of her students, used the discussions and did the work as the rubric. Don't get behind then guaranteed an A. overall, this class was a challenge but she was helpful with movies. i really learned what I needed to know about writing research citations. whoever said that wasn't useful is full of it.
I have been in this school for over a year, and she is the worse teacher I've ever come across. Shes get's sarcastic if you ask her any question. She will expect you to be a computer wiz. She is the points nazi. She is very unclear. Also, she loves being mean. She's a computer bully. She'll beat me up by taking away points.
I took her online course over the summer. As some others have said, she doesn't reply in a timely manner & she DOES get very sarcastic at times. I got out of the class with a perfect score, but it was with a lot of very hard work. For the workload she gave, it felt more like class that was worth three semester hours. Wait for a different professor.
I took & passed the test so I was exempt from the work. I have to say that the test was very stressful because of the time limit & technical nature. The instuctions she gives are VERY clear, almost so clear it seems she knows the mistakes that will most likely be made to lose points. Only try the test if you have used Word, PowerPoint & citations.
i took her class @ 8-9a & it was the worst decision i've made since i've been in skool. like u've probably already read she doesnt rely 2 emails, she gets an attitude all the time, & she makes u work WAY TOO HARD 4 a 1 credit class. change teachers or classes or whatever u gotta do not 2 get stuck w/ her
Discussions were great and informative. Study book to pass tests.
The subject matter of this course was far outside my comfort zone. The material was sometimes confusing and Ms. Jones does not suffer fools gladly. But she knows her stuff and she is as interested in your education as you are. If you make a sincere effort to learn, she will try to help you succeed. Be not afraid!
This was a online class she expect you to read and you volunteer service is mandatory and know your eco system
Take her at your risk. Ask yourself this - why are there only 2 previous ratings when she's been at GPC for 12 years? That's all I'll say. I really wish I had known in advance.
Prof. Jones is very personable instructor. Her experience in this field enables her to bring much needed insight into the classroom. She does allow the class to stray of the chapter's topic a bit, but in the end I realize the dialogue provided additional knowledge via student experiences. Plus she's a great advisor!
I enjoyed her class. Work was easy, her lecture notes pretty much had everything you needed to know, test and projects were easy also. she is very laid back,open minded and respectful to her students. I enjoyed this class.
for an online class, 1 credit hours. this class is ALOT of work. way more work than its supose to. supose to be an easy class, but its not. glad its over.
Difficult instructor. Quotes syllabus rather than providing answers to an actual question. Lecture notes contain misspellings/grammar issues. Test questions come from "bank" that isn't always related to the (biased) textbook. Doesn't respond to all emails or questions, forwards emails w/o permission, & assignment instructions are often unclear.
Weekly discussions were really helpful. Tests were timed. Gave good feedback on the papers.
Challenged me to look beyond and see the diversity abound.
Very nice teacher and down to earth, but please do not take for granted... Make sure you complete all assignments required. The work is more stressful than the studying for the test. I made an A and expected a B. Great teacher takes the stress out of learning about social work.
Absolutely terrible online instructor. Syllabus, instructions, textbook and other communications were badly typed, disorganized and contradictory. Questions went unanswered for weeks and then received ambiguous answers. Students had to piece assignments together from several places without guidance. Good discussions, but really bad teacher.
Do not take this class. The course work itself was not hard, but getting any feedback from the professor was quite impossible until the end of the semester of course, once it is to late!!
She is sarcastic. The syllabus is a mess & doesn't coincide with what she says in class. The lectures are long, boring & out of order. Don't expect to turn in assignments according to the syllabus because she is always changing things last minute. It is hard to communicate with her. (no office hours and no flexibility) TAKE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
