Fun class, especially if you know how to program. She is super nice and easy to talk to, explains things well if you have questions. There is a textbook, she doesn't care if you have it or not. If you want the book, DON'T buy it, there is a free PDF online. Homework only if you don't finish your program in class. Make friends in case you have ?'s.

Zenia is a great teacher. She is passionate about making sure everyone understands what is happening. Her projects are in line with the skills you need. On Tuesdays, she lectures and you learn a new concept. On Thursdays, you get a project. She gives you all weekend to finish the projects. Overall, I would recommend.

Super fun, made me really enjoy programming. Dr Bahorski should always be your first choice when picking classes. A little distractable, but that can be nice as opposed to the usual boring programming lectures.

Dr. Bahorski truly cares about her students and wants them to succeed. If you are not understanding something in her class she is extremely flexible and understanding. She is what all professors should aspire to be like. I wish she could teach the whole program.

Great Professor. The class required a fairly large load of homework between projects, papers, threaded discussions, and quizzes. The class will keep you busy, but the she is very passionate and energetic about the topics and she grades fairly! Quite a bit of extra credit opportunity.

She's not a bad prof, the class itself was so much busy work I wanted to pull my hair out. 9 Projects, Discussion board every week, and quiz's every 2 weeks. It was so much busy work and not an easy A. If you're just looking for a prereq class, pick something else

She's fine, it's better to take this class online with her. Do your stuff early and take her extra credit.

Took COSC105 online during the Summer. Loved that you can work ahead! Class consisted of easy busywork assignments, short multiplechoice quizzes, and discussions. Offers easy extra credit. One thing is that she has rules like you must submit things in Word documents (no Google docs) and her APA citation style is different than any other I've seen.

She's great at explaining things, is always happy to answer questions, and gives extra note handouts, so you don't even really have to do the reading (though I'd recommend reading the first couple of chapters for a kickstart). Extra credit on projects and tests. She's enthusiastic and caring. I wish she would teach cosc 211!

7 out of 5 stars would be more accurate! She has been exceptionally helpful and kind. She explains concepts very well and is humorous. Learning involves reading and listening but especially class projects. You don't even have to read the book if you practice. I had no background in computer science whatsoever but ended up learning tons.

She does go off on tangents a lot, but otherwise, one of the best professors in the comp sci department. She does a very good job helping you understand the course material, and I had the easiest time in her class compared to any other comp sci professor. You have labs every week, but if you know the structure of what to do, it will be easy.

The class itself is not too bad. We had weekly assignments and discussions like any other online class. She was very clear on instructions, almost too clear sometimes. A lot of the assignments are busy work but some of them can be interesting.

Pretty easy, THE BOOK IS VERY NECESSARY. Projects were pretty easy, but lengthy. Do not wait until the last minute for whatever reason. She posts homework, projects, etc. a week in advance, take advantage of that.

Don't be fooled by the 105 title. This class has an insane amount of homework! nothing is particularly hard, but it is very time consuming. You will be mad at first looking at the assignments, but you will eventually find out they are pretty easy. Unfortunately, you learn nothing valuable in this class. The material is garbage.

Professor Bahorski was overall a great professor to work with. She gives clear deadlines the first day of the semester and keeps in contact with students all semester long. The class was easy with her as a professor.

She always makes sure the class has a complete understanding on a subject before moving on. The textbook is more of a supplement, and she let's you use it to check your answers during the last 5 minutes of a test. When she's programming up on the board, follow along with her.

As a level 100 class, the amount of work is ridiculous. The workload is five times that what I have in my upper level 400 courses. It's not on par. One assignment had a 15 page explanation. Only took class as a degree requirement, would not recommend if you're a senior or junior. Or any level, really.
