Comments:

I have learned more about the Internet and its uses as a result of this course than any and all previous courses combined.  The information I have gained has resulted in more effective research and better communication skills.

I was concerned about not getting enough time to correspond with the teacher, but Ray has eased this concern.  I was always able to get a hold of him.  He was always more than happy to help me and always very nice.  He also encouraged all of the students to participate.  I will be looking to see if he is instructing any more classes.  I will recommend him to anyone.  Ray went above and beyond.  I am highly impressed.

Ray is a great instructor.  His interest and excitement about life and his love of teaching has really touched me.  He is a true benefit to UIS.

Ray is probably the most involved, motivating professor I have had.  He was so interested in everything we put up on the board, and he responded to all of us.  This made learning for me so much easier, and I actually had a good time learning about computers and the Internet, when the topic scared me before!   He is exceptional, and a definite asset to UIS.

Ray S. is an excellent professor.  I would like to point out his "lifelong" contract with students... He told us that he's willing to be there for us -- either through email or phone call, for the rest of his teaching life.  That's dedication.  Ray S., more professors need to be like you and Dr. Chanley.

Mr. Schroeder is a wonderful teacher.  I learned so much this semester, and understand things I never thought possible about the Internet.  I only wish I had taken this course earlier in my studies.
