She ROCKS! The most helpful instructor in the faculty! I personally always love her class, been taking the 1150 and 1140. Not an easy A teacher, but if you study hard, you might get it. If you are a slacker like me, you will at least get a B.. Totally RECOMMENDED! :D

GREAT teacher, SARCASTIC and fun, if you do the tutorials and assignments you'll be fine. Makes Computers somewhat fun to learn about, although i was on facebook 90% of the class time.

I wouldn't say that Barb is lazy just bcs he hands assig's back L8. She's always willing to help. However, I don't think that she makes this class entirely easy. Overhead notes should have been abolished post 99 and they may as well be written on an etch-a-sketch. The content proposed makes about as much sense kim kardashians celebrity status.

Awesome teacher - if you follow in class you'll do well. She's funny/sarcastic so pay attention and don't ask stupid questions...or laugh when someone else does and gets a little burn haha

I had her for Networking and database. She teaches well and will prepare you for the real world. If you are planning on taking CCNA or MS exams, her teaching style will perpare you for them.

If it helps, I have an A in this class, and am writing this during one of her lectures (and am usually on facebook or blogs). She is a fairly helpful person, however I find that if a computer teacher prefers to use a overhead projector for notes, as opposed to typing or powerpointing notes, than something is definitely wrong.

Barbara is very helpful, if you email her a question she'll usually reply you within an hour... however the course was difficult for me.. she picks the 4 best mark out of 7 assignments...so i guess its good that she gives you room to make mistakes..test consist of t/f, m/c, and a model to do(varies through chapters) MT is written, FINAL is hands on

Her notes are not that clear, meaning she does not tell you how to do everything. Her assignments are super long and gives way too many of them. An assignment was due on the day of the midterm! Talk about stupid!

Easy class if you show up and listen to her talk. Good teacher, clear notes on overhead and fully explains everything. Quizes are easy and assignments also. Important: never leave assignments until the last minute, although they are easy they are INCREDIBLY long.

Excellent instructor. Probably one of the best CISY instructors at the school. Quizes are fair. Can hand in assignments through interdepartmental mail. When I took this class, she was the only instructor that still wrote her notes on the overhead. The notes are very concise and helpful.

Comment:
Excellent teacher, quizzes are for the most part fair not really anything surprising. She sometimes does go a bit fast and sometimes hard to take all the notes down. She takes the best 4 out 6 quizzes which not too many teachers would do. She's very helpful when u come to her for questions, easy to get high marks on assignments and overall easy.

Too much notetaking. She needs to lighten up just a little with all the notes. She isnt very tolerant.

A lot of energy in the class. Clear explanations; tough homework but you'll know your databases and SQL when you finish this one.
