CS 1010

Beware of this class. Though the lecture and material might seem easy, the midterms and finals do not reflect it. Although the professor tried to explain things and actually teach, he was not through and was very hard to understand. Final and midterm killed my grade.

Nice easy course, and fufills the computer profeciency requirement for math majors

This class was pretty easy. The final project was just making a webpage on a topic of your choice. Professor Cettei is really chill. :)

Good teacher

Cettei is a great person. He's a funny guy and knows his stuff. The class is very easy. Do your homework, show up to class, and do your project, and you'll get an A. His final is optional and the project is fun.

Easy if you have a basic understanding of common computer programs like Excel and Access

Most helpful course on computer basics I've ever taken. Cettei is a great professor, explains things very intuitively. The tests are surprisingly tricky, you actually have to study a little.

recommend for those with low computer proficiency

EASY

This class is definitely one of the best I"ve taken at UVA. Tests are real easy and I'd say 95% of what you need to know is on the powerpoint slides. Reading is not required-so don't do it unless you really feel ambitious/want to learn more. Cettei flat out tells you at the beginning he doesn't test on the reading, so don't bother buying the book. Cettei is hilarious and has a great sense of humor, which makes class that much more interesting. Hardest part about the class would be the graded homeworks, which still aren't that bad as long as you put in the time. Definitely take this class if you want an easy A, want to obtain a basic knowledge of computers and information technology, and want to have a few laughs in the classroom
