9120023I took OS Scripting from Prof. Jackson. He did a great job of explaining concepts and giving examples. His exams are pretty tough but he grades fairly. He's really helpful with working in the lab and always responded to my emails quickly. The only negative is that he goes though some material quickly, so ask questions if you don't understand something.
6820023Had him for Computer Concepts......he sucks, he teaches stuff that has nothing to do with the course, hand writing on the board is terrible and just keeps going on and on and does not stop even if a student has a question
7520023This guy's a failure, i had him for Comp Concepts and turned the easiest class into a nightmare. Made it boring as hell, only plus is he gives lots of random free points
5320023Had him for Intro to Routing and Swithching. His lectures are completely disorganized and seem as though he makes them up as he goes along. As if that wasn't enough, the lectures are also the most boring hour and a half of your life, ever. Don't get me wrong, he seems to know his stuff and is an easy grader, but if you actually want to leave the class knowing anything then avoid him at all costs. Take professor Mason or Hartpence if you can, they may be a lot tougher, but you actually learn something.
9120023I had OS Scripting with this guy and thought that he did a real good job. He gave lots of code examples and reviewed a lot with the students. I don't understand what these other guys are complaining about. This guy teaches you what you need to know and how to get an A. Really great guy.
6820023He seem not care about what student are doing in the classroom. He just get in the class room, give lecture then get out. I have no idea what he is saying during the lecture and is he teaching us or what? He give out too tough quiz and test. Most of these questions are not related to the courses. Where the hell is he been to?
