Comment:
This class required so much work for a 200 level class. Most of the work was self-guided through the use of online textbook. Not really sure what the professors purpose was, other than submitting grades into the system. It's extremely easy to fall behind in this course. Comprehensive project instructions and elements are not very clear.

Comment:
This class was extremely difficult. The amount of online work I had to do (this was an online course) was very high. I spent about five hours at a time just doing the online assignments, not to mention discussions, quizzes and the final project. Professor Collins was nice, but the course is a ton of work. Be ready to really work for your grade.

The class was very helpful and useful. I didn't like the online companion we worked with because it had an automated grader report and it was never accurate. He responds in a reasonable amount of time to clarify and change grades if need be. Overall, the course wasn't bad.

Comment:
The amount of time and work required is ridiculous for a three-credit 200-level course. The instructor provides very little guidance. Quiz questions and discussion topics are poorly written and too vague. The automated grading system is flawed and doesn't tell you what it thinks you did wrong.

Comment:
I took this as an online course. I found Mr. Collins to be very UNhelpful and unresponsive to questions. The course-load was astronomical for a 101 online 7-week course. Reconsider before taking his class.
