Comment:

Although he doesn't give out any actual homework, be prepared to study for his tests. You need to watch the lectures at least twice and take really specific notes on ALL of his examples. The class is hard especially if you do not study for the tests. Only one other assignment besides tests.

I took him online. You need to be absolutely serious when you're taking this class. Hos tests are based off course videos and you can find flashcards online to aid you study. If you watch the videos once, you can expect a C. If you watch them all twice and take notes, you can get an A. It's not for everyone, but he's the best MKTG prof. at ODU.

Comment:

The class is not hard. It does require hours of studying, which he does state in the syllabus. The worse part about this class is listening to the lectures. They are very long and drawn out and waste a lot of unnecessary time. You MUST listen to the lecttures to pass. 5 test and 1 "research" assignment. Graded out of best 4 test.

Comment:

Dude graduated before 1976. Really makes you realize how dynamic marketing isn't. That witty comment being made, Myron Glassman is a great professor. Every other professor at ODU will tell you to shove it if you ask for their advice. I asked for advice from him and reassured confidence in me. You get the grade you deserve, put in the effort.

Comment:

I am not a business major, but thoroughly enjoyed this class. Dr. Glassman's lectures are very very long but he clearly is knowledgeable and presents material in a way that makes it interesting. Do not take this class if you just expect to get an easy A from an online course. There is a significant work and time commitment to pass the class.

Comment:

The professor can be funny but very annoying at times when you just want to get through the lecture without all the extra stuff. There are no homework assignments and the only extra credit offered was to complete some kind of study they were doing. This class requires A LOT of studying and listening/reading. He does state that in the syllabus.

Comment:

Received my first final F ever because of this class. You only have 6 grades total throughout the semester, the professor will not help you at all, and his tests are all based on his story telling throughout the lectures and/or are opinion based question. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS WITH THIS PROFESSOR!

Comment:

Listen to the lectures online at least once, preferably twice. There are some excellent study guides out there by former students, use them to study/guide your note-taking. There's no homework. Don't procrastinate on the CA assignment. Dr. G won't help you. He doesn't even reply to emails. But he does give you what you need to get an A.

Comment:

This professor is absolutely horrible. Your grade is purely based on tests and one research assignment that is only worth 20 points. His lecture videos are obnoxiously long and boring. His tests are extremely hard, and I wouldnt even bother asking him for advice to do good in his class because he will respond with a smart answer. Take anyone else!!

Comment:

The only reason I'm passing this class is due to studying with quizlet and studyblue. Prof. Glassman is NOT a good professor, his video lectures are long and boring, and his tests are only over the stories he tells during them. There is some extra credit and the 20 article summaries are ridiculous and 4% of the final grade. 10/10 not recommended

Comment:

Prof. Glassman's class was a good class in my opinion. In this PLE lectures he used a lot of humor which helped me remember the content of the class. His tests (5 in total) require you to remember the examples he used for the terms, so if you pay attention it will help you a lot. You do not need to buy a textbook for this class.

Comment:

Learned a lot from this guy, I watched the videos on a faster speed bc he would just go on and on.. but super funny, very knowledgeable and his examples really help the material sink in. I hand wrote the notes, helps me comprehend better. His study guides are dead on. Would take again.

Comment:

Dr. Glassman has an odd sense of humor, but overall a nice guy. You'll have to work hard for your grade! No need to take notes, just print out the module transcripts which displays everything he said during the powerpoint slides. Make sure you know the transcripts well as the test questions comes straight from it. Some questions were worded tricky.

Comment:

He is fine, just pay attention to the study guides and the PLE videos. You will be fine and get an easy A or B depending on your commitment. But i didn't read at all and i got a B+, don't let other people scare you off. Get him online and it will be fine.

Comment:

I had to drop this online class because his lectures were too unfocused. They would have made sense if it were an in-class lecture but because they were not, they were too far off tangent. He says you don't need the book but you probably do because it's a waste of time to listen to his online lectures.

I love Glassman's sense of humor. This is a tough class and I don't recommend if it's your first semester at ODU. I had to take his class twice because I got a C- the first go around and I need a C to move forward. You definitely have to put work into this class, but he's not a bad professor. He's a smart-elic, but I liked it.

Comment:

Prof. Glassman has a great personality and tries to make the lectures sound less boring. While I wish there were more hw opportunities and less exams, he tries to give good exam study guides to go by and his exams are straight from his lectures. As long as you read the lecture transcripts, listen to the lectures, and take good notes, you can pass

This class really is not that terrible and the lectures are long but interesting. He's very fair and gives extra points if he feels he made a test too difficult. The WSJ project is time consuming but do it, easy 20 pts. Join getstudyroom website, collaborate with fellow classmates, and use past semester resources, you'll do just fine.

As someone who has a passion for business and marketing, I was disappointed by this course. The lectures were great, but plan to spend ALOT of time on them. Be sure to take notes on EVERY detail and example he gives. The tests are short but extremely hard. I am an A student and never received above a C on the tests. This class hurt my good GPA.

I liked Dr. Glassman's online marketing 311 class. He had great PLE lectures. You have to study them, but you don't need to buy a book. You have to put the work in, but he gives you all of the information you need.
