Poor

Professor Krause is very strict. He's very grade-oriented, rather than student or progress oriented. I've had really good computer professors during my time at Montgomery County Community College, but he's not one of them.

Awesome

This professor is a great help. He answers quickly and cares about his students. But, let me tell you, his class is a lot of work. I signed up for CIS151 online and it was a big undertaking. Every three chapters, we have to do a case study summary. If you do it right, it will be about 20 pages long. Considering the book has about 12-15 chapters, that's around 100 pages of work you'll have to do. But, don't worry, you'll learn a ton, but you'll have to work hard for it.
