Comments:

I have a much better understanding of the Internet and its complexities.  I really enjoyed taking this class.
----
Ray was an excellent teacher.  Perhaps more online instructors could use audio lectures with notes if possible.  Ray was very helpful with questions pertaining to the course or just personal questions.
----
The class needs to be a four credit hour course.  I received a lot of good information in this class.
----
I enjoyed the lectures.  The audio along with the powerpoint slides is a wonderful way to present the lectures.
----
Prof. Schroeder is an excellent teacher; his class was presented on a timely basis with all the information available to the students.  Prof. Schroeder was available for the students on a regular basis and ready to help when necessary.  This was an extremely interesting course and has been very constructive for me.
----
I feel Prof. Schroeder has done an excellent job.  As a result of this I intend to keep taking courses at UIS.  I will also try to find classes he is teaching.  This is my fourth online class and he is by far the best prof. I have experienced as far as online classes go.
----
Ray is a great and well organized instructor who is extremely flexible and knowedgeable. He made the class interesting and pertinent to today's events, hope to have him in another class...
----
Ray brought exceptional knowledge of the material to the classroom setting and was always providing the class with many very insightful articles to enhance what was being taught in the classroom.  He even made me aware of things I was not noticing before.  I would continually find articles, some that I thought might be of interest to him and sometimes I would pass them on.  He was gracious enough to accept those and make a positive comment about them.  I tried to limit my enthusiasm here, however, as I know he has tons of other things to digest.  Great course, great teacher.
----
I think this was a great class.  It was convenient and well-organized.  All of the lectures and assignments were straight-forward and to the point.  I think this was a great class and I hope that UIS continues to get more online classes to accomodate working class students.  Great Class!  Thank You!
