Prof Wild is a very sweet man who really cares about his students. His class can be disorganized at times, and he spends a lot of time doing what I'd call "crowd work", instead of lecturing.

Prof wild is a good teacher. His class has clear expectations and grading standards. Easy if you follow along online and do all the assignments. Not hard. Somewhat boring but it is accounting after all.

This course was online through McGraw Hill and had coursework due MWF every week with 1-2 13 questions quizzes a week. It was all open book and just busy work. Worth it for the online convenience and grade!

Had Prof Wild for AIS 603. I really liked his teaching style and the group project and case work was a great way to learn concepts in an applied way.

This was a great online class. It was the first accounting class I've ever taken, but I had no difficulties learning the material. Everything was set up very clearly and the instructional team was there for support when needed. Definitely recommend!

Well run online course. All grading was super clear, and everything was laid out well. The discussion boards were helpful, and the instructors responded promptly. I'd recommend taking the class.

The class was fair and not too difficult. The class homework and exams were done online, but you had the option to attend an in person lecture if you signed up for it. We received weekly updates from the professor regarding the course. Overall, good class.

Online accounting course was very independent. All interactions were with TAs. No recorded lectures provided, lectures were TA led. ACCT/AIS 300 is not a terribly difficult course, just stay on top of your work.

Nice guy... Good teacher.

He does a great job. The class and grading guidelines were very clear. The class has quite a bit of homework and several quizzes, but everything is fair. If you study and work hard, you can obtain a good grade. Best online course I've take at the Business school.

Best online course I have taken at UW. Very clear expectations and very timely responses to questions. Also, the class was catered to non-Accounting majors. Overall, would take another course with this professor.

Good class and well organized. Professor utilized technology and made accounting interesting. You should be fine on the exams if you study.

Professor Wild was a great instructor. The class was organized very well. The homework and tests were very fair. Would take a class with him again!

Accounting is not my favorite in general, but overall it wasn't a terrible class. Be prepared to read the textbook word for word. You will spend lots of time on weekly homework. Three exams are extremely fair and easy if you have taken good notes and have honestly done the homework. Do not take if you are not self motivated to learn.
