Professor Murphy was incredible! Whenever I would email her for help on a question, she would send back a video of walking me through what I needed to fix. I definitely recommend taking from her.

This class was a FLEX course for me and it was quite good. Code along with the videos and the assignments should go well. At times though, there seemed to be a lot of information in the videos that were never used in assignments/exams. Exams were simple coding tasks. Murphy was easy to reach out to and willing to help if needed. Great instructor!

Professor Murphy does a good job of cooperating with you. If you have something come up in life that totally just slaps you across the face, she will be accomodating.

I really enjoyed this class. It was a flex class, all online, and the set up made it easier than regular online classes for me. Her class was well organized and she gave good feedback, if you emailed with any questions she was quick to respond. 1030 is an easy class in general in my opinion but I would definitely take another class from her again.

I took this class online in the Flex program. Professor Murphy has helped me out individually soo much! She is super sweet and understanding when replying to any questions. She sends videos reviewing code and seems to truly care about helping students understand the concept.

Prof Murphy is the best! She really knows what she's doing and is quick to help if you don't understand something. If you email her, she replies super fast and helps a lot. She really cares that you understand what you're learning and she's a great professor.

I loved this class. This was my first time ever learning how to code and while it was definitely a learning curve and difficult, Dr. Murphy was so good about answering questions and helping me get though assignments by explaining concepts. Attendance is not mandatory but it absolutely helps to go to class because there is time to do the labs there.

Comment:
Prof Murphy knows what she is talking about, unfortunately she doesn't really know how to convey what she wants from her students. The lectures for the quizzes are helpful, but what she gives you for the coding is very vague and sometimes does not help at all. Most of what I learned I taught myself because what she gave us didnt help at all

She was the best. I got an A from her clas and did indeed learn a lot. I love the daily drawings you get online from giving you a point towards your grade to giving you an extra day to do your HW. I loved her and hoping I see her in future classes.

This professor is very sweet. She is beyond helpful and I love the daily spins she gives us so we can either get a quiz retake, an extra point added towards our grade, or a peek question on the exam. It also has a joke of the day. The quizzes are not unlimited anymore, but they are not extremely hard. You learn a lot. She is a definite recommend!

Professor Murphy is amazing! 1030 is the basic CS class but dont be fooled, it covers Java, HTML, SQL and a few other bits. The lectures are clear & easy to follow, the quiz questions are taken from her lectures/tutorials and the textbook. Each week is a lecture, tutorial, chapter, and an assignment. She also responds back within a few hours.

The class is fun. Teacher responds fast and is very helpful. Most assignments are pretty easy. Tests are at home, open note (and based off the quizzes). Quizzes are unlimited attempts. Had to do discussions, whatever you say gets 100%. Every Saturday there was one discussion, one quiz, and one assignment. Lectures can be confusing sometimes.

Instructor Murphy did a good job of teaching the breadth of concepts to all of the students in the class. This is a low level class but don't be fooled as it covers many areas, such as: HTML5, CSS, SQL, Java hell and logic gates among other things. The class is great preparation for future classes and I am glad I took it despite not having to.

Comment:
This is a fairly easy online class. I was able to only spend a couple of hours a week on it and get an A. Despite that, Prof. Murphy conveyed the concepts of the class in a clear way. Lectures are short and homework was pretty easy. The quizzes are hard, but you can retake them as many times as you like. Great class for those with a busy schedule!
