There is a ton of homework. The teacher is really good at helping but sometimes needs help from the student assistant because he couldn't figure out the answer.

This is an online class, you need an access code. Nothing is due until the exam that follows but don't put things off. For SimNet work you can turn it in 5 times to get a better grade. For the projects he assigns you can redo them to get better grades as well. He has no late grades, but do not put things off or you wont get them all finished.

No lectures for the class I had him for, but he's a good guy and he tries to best to get everyone to succeed. He's also very understandable when it comes to late assignments and will answer any questions you have.

He's teaching another prof's curriculum in this class and in ISIN308, which is a pain because the labs are poorly written (by the other professor), some of the links don't work, and other problems. Professor Herrick works around it beautifully. There is a lot of work in these classes, but this professor is flexible and very helpful with problems.

Super awesome professor. Completely understanding during emergency situations and willing to work with you based on circumstances. A goofy guy, but super nice & always willing to help/answer questions in class.

John Herrick is a little strange but he is a very nice guy. He seems to know the field fairly well and I enjoyed his class. The homework was pretty easy, though some struggled with it so it depends on your previous knowledge.

Super nice guy. Very easy class. His voice cracks me up so that always made me smile in the morning. Also his jokes are funny as well, and he lets you listen to music while your doing your computer work. This guy really is great

This is an easy class if you've used Microsoft Office before. You go more into depth of Word, PowerPoint, and Excel. All of the work is done online or on Blackboard, so you can basically show up to class and do the work at home. The books aren't necessary, but the access code is. There's teacher's aides that help you when needed everyday. Easy A.

Such an easy class and he's a nice teacher. You should show up to class to get a good grade but some of the work you can do at home. If you can work the basics of Microsoft Office, you'll be good.

Easy, easy class! He doesn't do anything, but there are teacher aides that come around and help if needed. It's really easy to get ahead of the schedule because it's self-paced, but you still have to come to class for attendance points. DON'T BUY THE BOOKS! Waste of money and no need for them.

He is very nice. looks like dog the bounty hunter. class is very easy. prepare to hear him speak and he repeats stories and jokes that arent funny. not very clear on a lot, like he says theres extra credit, when actually its a question not worth as much as the others. attendance is a must. over all hes a easy and fun, kinda boring class

Super easy class. The only down side is you need to go to class for attendance points..Don't buy the books! It would be a total waste of money; otherwise, super easy class, good prof.

Its kinda hard to rate this professor seeing as though he doesn't really teach. The assistants help but he rarely interacts with the class himself except to tell you what is due, other than that its pretty much a teach yourself course so the professor doesn't really matter, because its mostly online and done through myitlab

very helpful. He's very kind and if you have any questions, he's more than happy to help out. I highly recommend you take him if you need isys. The whole class is worth 1000 points, so it's really easy to calculate your grade and you always know what your grade is. His way of teaching the class makes it VERY easy and he's good at updating grades.

Nice guy, but does nothing to teach. Assistants do everything,, but they don't teach you how to do anything they do it for you. so when it comes to tests your screwed . Attendance is mandatory, even if you are finished with what is due. fairly easy class though, just frusterating at times if you aren't good with computers.
