CS 110 Freshman Grade Earned: B Required (Support) 4:25 pm, Jul 7, 2010 |
HORRIBLE professor. She never really "taught" anything. The key to passing this class is to go to the review session the last class period before the post-test. She tells everyone the answers to the pre-test from the week before (the post-tests were basically identical to the pretests). I never went to a regular class session with Schleiffers - going to the review sessions was bad enough! Nearly every time, she would call out on someone for talking or leaving class early. The class itself isn't hard to pass, but Schleiffers made it absolutely miserable. Avoid taking anything with her!

She is by far the worst teacher I have had in my entire life. Schleiffers acts as if we are still in Middle School and freaks out about phones or if you for some reason need to leave from the class early. This creepy little hobbit woman really needs to get it together and start respecting her students because by the end of the class everyone was ready to slap her across the face for some of the junk she continuously pulled. The class CS110 in itself is easier than some of the classes I took in 5th grade but she made me dread going. Her lectures are boring and useless, except for the last one before finals where you sign a piece of paper for credit and evaluate how horrible of a professor she is. If you can avoid it, don't take her class but if you get stuck having to take it like I did just remember to bring a sudoku to class every Monday.

I thought that she was pretty knowledgeable on the subject but she is very boring to listen too and as everyone has said very unwilling to help out students. She expects students to read the syllabus and totally understand her class without an explanation of her. If you have ANY questions on the syllabus make sure you ask in the beginning because if you have any questioins later on she isn't very helpful. I didn't think the TA's so if you have any questions or concerns about the class try and ask them first.

This is the most boring and pointless class I have ever taken. Her syllabus is wrong and she doesn't follow it. She is unwilling to help he student with any of there complains along with her T.A's. The grading scale is just messed up; there is not one positive point to his class. Seriously, if you can avoid taking this class do it.

Basically the teaching assitants suck. They are zero help and one even told me to just use the help menu on one of the assignments. Probably because she didn't know! Take this class, get it over with. This may say bad but DON'T ASK FOR HELP. It's just a waste of time.

Schleiffers is not a very good professor. She is not up to date with new technology and without the help of her ta's she would not even be able to teach the class. Some times we would spend time in the lecture watching her attempt to set up her power points. The ta's help alot, and are very knowledgeable. Just go to the reviews in class and do the online reviews and you will be golden.

This class is so boring. Dr. Schleiffers claims that she is always there to help you with whatever you need, but when i tried to email her, I did not get a response until the next week. Also she is very rude. The class is an easy A but the professor is dull!!!!

The teacher is truly one of the worst I have had a CSU. She has no understanding of computers, no sympathy for students and no idea how to run a class. Her online grading system is more dated than my last gym class and all her course information is outdated and incorrect. The way the syllabus instructs you to calculate your grade is wrong. She does not respond to emails and any questions you have or problems you encounter plan to take on your own. It is possible to get good grades as long as you do all the work to completion but stay away from her as much as possible.

The class is easy as long as you go to labs but don't expect any help or understanding from the cold hearted hobbit bitch who teaches the class. She does not even work with you if you have conflicts with the class its her way or the highway but the class itself is easy as long as you go to lab and teach yourself.

CS 110 Sophomore Grade Earned: A Elective 4:55 pm, Apr 27, 2009 |
I interacted her a grand total of one time (at the beginning of the semester), and skated through the class. I never got above a 90 on a pretest, so I just did all the labs and stuff (most of which I scored above 90).
Starting this year, she passed around an attendance sheet with signature slots, so a buddy and I just alternated going and signing the other in.
Do the trainings, labs, and extra credit and you'll be fine. Going to lecture every week is only the difference between a 91/92 and above a 95. This is probably one of the five easiest classes I've ever taken.
Bonus: The new CS110 lab is open 24/7, and it's always empty after about 6

Wow were should I start. This class is completely worthless. She is rude, doesn't teach you anything what so ever, doesn't desire to get paid, and needs to get fired.! This class is very confusing on what is going at first, but make sure you talk to the TA's and go to the monday lecture just so you are well informed about what is going on. Its a worthless class but if your major requires it. Make sure you do every single lab and do the modules before taking your test that will really help you out.

Schleiffers is a nice ol gal; all she wants is kids to do their stuff. It can be a very easy class, but sometimes tedious, but the tediousness will get you through the course with an A and help out your GPA. If you take this class don't f**k around an get a bad grade. She will help you understand the material if you ask her; like with most teachers, show respect and desire to do well, and life will be a little easier

This class is soooo boring. The tests are on the computer, but there are always problems and somemtimes it lowers your grade significantly because you have to do it a specific way. I studies, but I never felt prepared for tests. The lectures are worthless. There is absolutely no reason to go to class. She just goes over the pretest and talks about how the room needs maintenance. I would not recommend taking this class.

Honestly, Dr. Schleiffers is probably the most awful teacher put on this earth. She has no respect for her students and no respect for the institution of higher learning. Honestly, in all reality this class is a fluff class. The only people taking the class are either fulfilling a requirement for the major or just looking for an easy A. You will come out of tests knowing that you are well versed in the material, but still have failed it because of inadequate and poorly composed tests. I would just overall avoid this class and anything to do with this professor.

I thought this was mostly going to be online with minimal class work. While most of the information is online, 10% of the grade is class attendance. Who still does that? She is completely inflexible about her exams, which have to be taken on the scheduled day and time. No exceptions. I felt like I was in 3rd grade. No thank you, I dropped the course.

Schleif shouldn't even get paid for teaching. Why? Because she doesn't, her class sessions are filled with worthless babbling. This class should be online. You have to teach yourself and figure out what the questions are really asking to get an A like I did. Oh, and the TA's are awesome.

This class was by far the easiest class I've taken at CSU. I only attended class on the first day, I studied for the pretests by doing the practice tests from the software at home the night before and scored almost a 100% on all the exams... If you study for the pretests you will easily pass out of all the units and never have to do any of the lab work. The programming assignments at the end of the class are very simple. The class only meets once a week, and it's only if you have questions. The changes they have made to this class has made it 100 times easier. This class was a breeze!

To be honest, I only attended class on the first day and only went to maybe 4 lab classes and I'm still pulling an A. If you put the information from the discs onto your computer then you can do the lessons at home. The pretests from the lessons are the questions on the exams! Do the labs in the workbook, and try to do the extra credit. She gives the answers to the extra credit in her class, but I never go so I figure out the answers on my own from doing the lessons and finding them online. It's a real easy class, just take the pretests over and over until you get 100% on all of them and you'll be golden. I don't have any information on the professor because I've never interacted with her, but she makes it easy enough to pass the class without ever going. =D

The only way to get a good grade in this class is to do the lessons on the computer. The lecture isn't really helpful except to fill out the extra credit sheet. You can definately get an A, but don't expect it to be from any help given by "Dr. S". She isn't very understanding or helpful in response to student difficulties or needs. Unfortunately, I think she's the only professor for this course.

Dr. Schleiffers was an excellent professor! Everything you need to know about when assignments are due is given to you at the beginning of the semester in the calendar section on WebCT. Assignments are straightforward and either from lecture sessions, the internet, or the Simnet CD. Most assignments had at least one fun exercise. There are opportunities to test out of every lecture except Visual Basic, which is required of all students to give them basic computer programming knowledge. Bonus points are available to everyone who puts extra effort into the course by completing assigned sections of the Simnet CD. Overall, great course taught by someone who absolutely knows computers and wants to give her students the opportunity to succeed!

Schleif gave up smoking and you could tell because she is very strung out. She doesn't understand what it is like to not understand a computer. My roomate didn't do the assignments on the disc you get and she got a D in the class. Beware of a large work load and a teacher who is not very helpful. The GTAs are good though so talk with them.

Dr. S is a TROLL! She is quite possibly one of the worst teachers I've had thus far at CSU. She's very inconsiderate, confusing, and just a completely mean troll lady. She sucks on toothpicks, and grumbles the way through class. She is unwilling to help students, and yells at them, and once said my idea on doing part of an exam was stupid! Talk about crossword puzzle time in this class!!!

This class sucks and Dr. S sucks! Don't get me wrong, I got an easy A and I'm happy about it, but no thanks to her! Some of the lab assistants in the CS 110 lab are very helpful; others would not helps students, even yelled at them at times, and one was definitely drunk when I came in once. Overall though, the lab assistants and the T.A. were what got me through the class. Dr. S is sooooo rude and condescending, and she never helps anyone. She is also uptight and her lectures put everyone to sleep. Don't go to class ever, study for the pretests so you can test out of units, and do the simple SimNet extra credit lessons. Also, find a nice, helpful lab assistant early in the semester and find out when he/she works so that you can actually get help if you need to. Boo for stupid CS 110 and stupid Meanie McSchleiffers!

Schleiffers is a mean old horse jockey. She doesn't feel obligated to help students with anything. TA's were ok, some of them being exceptionally helpful. The class structure is very confusing, it will take about 6 weeks to figure out how it works. It seemed like the only reason people went to class was to talk with their friends.

OK as an instructor. The first week of class I did not have a clue what was going on at all! But once you understand how the class is set up its really nice. I only had to go to the last few lectures on programming, I was able to test out of everything else and I don’t even have that much computer knowledge (Basic windows and that is it!) She really cares about the students and tries to make it easy on them. She was going to drop our last programming project if we showed up to class for the points and some student told on her to the department head and she could not do it! The whole class was pissed at that student! She tries to make it easier for people and they just have to make it harder. Her personality is a little strange but after a while you just find her funny! Easy “A”!

Professor S. presents the material very well, but she is not willing to work with students. She has little to no patience and if you are having a hard time, I would talk to a TA instead of her. She does not bend the rules for anyone, so make sure you always go to the right lab times and never miss anything because she rarely allows makeups.

Dr. S can be quite odd at times. However, she presents the material in a rather monotone voice as she skims through the powerpoint slides from your textbook. Most of the tests were based off the Simnet cds they give you with your textbooks so be sure to use those as much as the text to study. Plenty of extra credit and a pretty easy course if you can handle the concepts. It starts off kinda hard, gets REALLY easy, then a little bit hard at the end. You should be able to do well in this class by just showing up to the classes, but with a little bit of studying you're practically guaranteed a good grade.

Ok, why are we taking a personal computing course in college?? We already know this crap, most of the people in the class could teach the class better then Dr. S could... but whatever. You can totally get an A in this class without going to lecture for 2 months straight, but i don't suggest it. Use and memorize the simnet CD's for the first exams, they will help you a lot, and if you have to ask a question in class, be prepared, because it seems that he/she's been teaching the class for so long, that she thinks you are an idiot if you dont know something. Just get the class over with while you can, and then set the visual basic book on fire, cause they aren't gonna buy it back anyway and it will make you feel a lot better!!! Just kidding kid;)

Easy "A" if you do the assignments. However I did not care for Sandy. I went to talk to her on several occasions and she was very rude and belittled me as well as other students. If you go to lecture you will notice about every three words she says is "ky" which comes very distracting when you are trying to learn.

Well, I couldn't give her more or less than a "C." I never went to class. But the material is so easy that if you don't get an A it is because of one of two reasons. Either you missed your assignment due dates....or...you are a complete idiot. I think I went to 5 classes the whole semester and never studied for exams longer than an hour and I came away with a 96%. She allows for the easiest extra credit ever...but sometimes I just didn't feel like doing it. That is how easy this class is. It is a 4 credit easy A class that can raise anyone's GPA. I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a no-brainer. no-attendence needed kind of class.

As has been pointed out by at least one other rater, Dr Schleiffers really doesn't seem to know the material she is presenting. It's not like it's really intense either, this is just an intro to "this is a keyboard, this is a mouse" but when she presents completely inaccurate material it's time to wonder if she is able to fairly grade others on their knowledge.
"The Pentium 4 is a 128 bit processor" was pointed out previously, and that's one of the many mis-statements that caused me to decide against completing this course. FYI, the Pentium 4 is still a 32-bit processor. Intel's newest commercial processor, the Itanium, is only a 64-bit processor.

Wow, it doesn't look like too many people like this prof, so I am kinda alone here. Sure, she is boring, but so is the material. Okay, she talks about her being a jockey one or ten times a week, but it is something other than the boring crap she normally talks about. How is she supposed to make CS110 interesting? Maybe have strippers or give out money during class? What I am trying to say is that it is a boring class, and you can't blame her for having a boring lecture with a 200 person classroom. When someone asks a question, she answers it like she is supposed to. Plus it is CS110, an EASY CLASS. I got a 98.5% without taking notes, you wanna know why? Cause we do Windows, Internet, PowerPoint, Excel, and other easy things. I hate computers and suck at running them, but it is such an easy class, with helpful TA's in the lab, that if you don't get an A or B, you might want to catch the earlier short bus so you can study more. Don't blame your stupidity on the prof, she is doing her best.

Ms. Schleiffers can ride a horse. How do I know this? She showed us pictures during class. Why do we need to know this?
Ms. Schleiffers can't teach CS110. How do I know this? She is a flippin' idiot, but she can ride a horse.
"M'kay" translated is "I don't care if you understand what I just said, because I don't either."
"...and so on and so forth" translated is "I don't know but I'm going to pretend like I know so you don't know that I don't know. M'kay. And so on and so forth" (It's really a vicious cycle)
Ms. Schleiffers doesn't care if we learn. She is mean. She shouldn't be a teacher anymore. She should stick to horses. She says really mean and stupid things in class, too.
Here are some examples of things she said or wrote on the board during class, I've missed a few I'm sure, but after a couple weeks I started writing them down in my note packet because these are just precious.
"The Pentium 4 is a 128 bit processor"
"We don't use the 8th bit of a byte in ASCII"
"I'm in the Kentucky Derby Hall of Fame, m'kay?"
"The only two web browsers are Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator"
"module scope - storage locations accessed by any procedure of the form by which created"
"Telephones are analog which means signals travel one bit at a time"
"People who chat on the Internet are lonely and desperate."
"Email is the only thing that uses DNS."
This is what she wrote on the board to explain logical AND
T F
-------------------------------------------------------
AND | Both sides true | |
|--------------------------------------------------------
| | One side false |
--------------------------------------------------------
| | Both sides false |
--------------------------------------------------------
What goes in the blank spaces, Schleiffers????
Any CS major with half a brain will tell you that is seriously messed up and a most convoluted way of explaining a very simple concept.
Ever heard of a truth table, Schleiff?
What exactly are you a doctor of? It can't possibly be Computer Science. Maybe she's a horse doctor. Not to be confused with a Vet, they actually know a thing or two. Did I mention she can ride a horse?
If nothing else, this class was entertaining because I've never heard such moronicthings in my life.
