Really Easy. Final project took some time, but as long as you finish it you should get an A

This is the easiest Systems course you'll ever take. If you have a background in coding, this course shouldn't be too difficult for you. You learn the basics of HTML, PHP, SQL, and XML. There are only 4 individual homeworks, and a course project due on the last day of class. The exams are pretty easy if you know your stuff, and so is the final. Note that the final, unlike the 1st two exams, will be multiple choice, instead of short answer. Overall, a fun course.

Cogill was definitely the better teacher, Lark read off the slides, probably because he had never taught the class before. Test performance varied, I got a 99 on the first test and closer to a 70 on the second. The end of year project really sneaks up on you and influences your grade a lot, so make sure to start early. Overall, not a miserable class, but certainly not the best.

A very interesting course. You learn a lot and are expected to keep up with the work. The problem is they do not teach you everything you need for assignments which makes them difficult.

Difficult class. They don't teach you programming in php or html, so you must learn that to do well on the project.

This is a co-taught class. You don't really need to do the reading. You can get everything from the power point slides which are posted online.
