He deserves a higher rating. He's a good teacher, and he cares. He makes you work hard too. He can be a little nonresponsive at times, which is scary given the course requirements, but I would recommend him.

he doesn't know how to explain whats the purpose of the coding. he just asks to copy and paste from online sources, and refer to the book a lot . he could not answer question, he definitely will reply to you with "check the source, or check the book."

Class participation is a must. If you jump ahead, be prepared to be called on something and be sure to know the answer. He's friendly, though, and makes an effort to know his students.

Comment:
Unfortunately I had him for 3 classes and all of them were a waste. In a 90 minute class you learn 20 minutes worth of material. During the class, he refers to the book religiously and fails to answer questions with his own knowledge. He wastes time by talking about sources to teach you what he actually should be teaching. I learned more on my own.

Comment:
Choman is perhaps the worst teacher I have ever had in my life. He never taught anything in class and just said to watch the video tutors online. He would show the code for a program but not explain what any of it means. He doesn't teach anything that is on his projects and there is 3 of them. Horrible teacher. Take the class online if you have to.

Comment:
Mr Choman is an excellent teacher. He expects you to put time into the class and requires you do work hard, but is fair, and I learn so much from each class I take with him. He is ALWAYS helpful if you have questions outside of class and will answer emails almost immediately. I always enjoy his classes and learn so much!

Do NOT take this class with him. He is useless, I taught myself the entire class and when I had a problem he directed me to the ebook help desk. He did NOT teach and was more worried about getting his paperwork done correctly than about the issues of the student.I should have signed up for a distance class because I taught myself. DROP!!!

Comment:
You MUST have knowledge about coding as stated in the handbook before you join the class. If you don't know coding (loops, arrays, etc), Choman's class is not the best for you. He accepts that you know the basics and moves on with class. I found him a wonderful teacher but can understand why so many dropped out - this is NOT a class for first ye

Worst Teacher ever. He can't teach for anything, he mumbles while he lectures. Worst of all he doesn't help students when they need help.

Nice. Helpful. I can see how someone who doesn't know much about computers would be lost, but that's what the introduction courses are for.

I have Mark Choman right now and he is a HORRIBlE teacher. i am a student in his class who constantly has problems in Microsoft Visual Basic.NET He won't help me when I ask him for help with coding. Stay Away from CIS 162 or any of the CIS classes he teaches. a Waste of aggrivation!!!!
