Dr. Thistle tends to tell stories rather than teach. It's a really good class but I ended up teaching most of the concepts to myself.

Comment:

His lectures are absolutely useless, he is too old to be teaching. I do not mean to be rude but he was just such a frustrating professor. His lectures go on tangent and most of the time do not relate to the course. Yet when the midterm and final exam come you look at it confused because you learned nothing from him. THIS IS NOT A BIRD COURSE

The course was a bit more dull and "historical" than expected but easy assignment and midterm marks. The final though- tough- need to go to class because most of the material was from lectures not in book. He can be harsh at times and tends to pick on people. Very intimidating.

This is for anyone that is registered in the course: (1) Do not buy the HTML book, the course website has the HTML code and class lectures help.(2) The Internet Book is very important. ~55% of tests are based on it. (3) Look at previous year's class list webpage assignments for ideas. (4) MTs = EZ

Fresh new graduates can deliver the material better than him without using bad words in class and back bite students. no slides, u have to attend his class because he wont post a summary or info about what he said in class, hid class isn't interesting at all

Surprisingly not bad. I received perfect on the M/C section of midterm and 35/40 on coding. He basically gives out a free 8% for file upload and index page. The only thing that is hard is the final (worth 50%). NEED TO GO TO LECTURES, HE GIVES OUT A LOT OF HINTS!

This man seriously needs to retire. He is way too old to be teaching. The lectures are pretty useless, therefore I only went to about half of them and just read the text..but once I got to the final I realized I probably should've gone more often haha. Still got a B though! KNOW YOUR HTML CODES!

Very rude person and he will single you out if you talk in class(even if your at the back of the class). Lets put it this way, if you study hard and do the work you will get a good grade. It is hard tho

This teacher is a slow in teaching and does not teach. All he does is talk about useless things about his life which is completely useless to everyone. If you do not know how to write HTML language then never take this course because it is completely useless with this teacher.

Mid-term: 100 fill-in-the-blank; Final: 60 M/C, 2 short ans., 1 long ans., 60 HTML Coding fill in the blank. He gave out exam hints during class, as people never showed up to the night class!!! You'll get an A+ if you study everything :)

Comment:

This guy is hilarious. "I'm not shouting!" cracks me up every time. If you're not "into" computers then don't take this class. It's somewhat more difficult for those that just cannot stand anything to do with computers and software. Mid-term and assignments were straight forward and easy. With normal studying, I managed an A+.
