This was a special session 1 week course our MBA class did w/12 German exchange students. The class was tons of fun b/c it was mostly activities w/little lecture. Osland has a lot of good material & personal stories to help you learn. She is nice, but I would definitely go see her in office hours at least once so she knows who you are. Easy final.

She is very easy to understand. She is very persistent in what she wants to say. She insists. She brainwashes. I had a strong desire to wash myself after her class. Loves ghettos.

She is one of the best professors at SJSU. Very understanding and extremely nice lady. The class was long but she made it fun and entertaining ( a lot of in-class activities). I definitely recommend her.

This class is useless. I don't see how it fits into our accounting program. What a waste of time. The grading criteria are very arbitrary and the cutoff for A is set to be very high (94%!)

Comment:
The most remarkable thing is, her class is not boring at all. She gives alot of energy and time to do her "class activities," those thing spin your body all over the class, and usually get u away with some main ideas about the topic. She gives crystal clear study guides with all of her exams and this make the class not hard at all.

Her class is a total joke. You can get away with not reading any of the material and still pass. I would not recommend this class to anyone.

Hands down, the best teacher of all time. I think taking her class should be a requirement for every student in this University. Students who have taken her class will have the edge to concur the real world. This is one class and teacher to really put your heart into, regardless of your major.

Easy class but somewhat unorganized especially when it comes to the group project. I dont blame her though since its the first time she is doing it. Other than that she is really nice, helpful, and knowledgeable in management styles, afterall she wrote her own textbook. Also she has a funny laugh.

Professor Osland is awesome!! She is the most down to earth person, and the smartest teacher in the mgmt dept. I loved and enjoyed her class very much. I would only recommend her for 160 and most importantly, she teaches you theories that you can apply in life at work.

She's really entertaining and informative. She makes class fun, it goes by fast even though its 3 hours long. It's better than a regular lecture class that is 2 hours long. You do a lot of activities in class. The homework isn't that bad. It require a bit of reading, but it prepares you for class.

The class becomes easy because she has your attention and your interest all the time and she designed the course that makes you have to follow her requirement exactly otherwise you will regret. Fun class and you can learn tons of theories which can be applied to yourself and real business world.

Great proffesor. Uses alternative teaching methods and she is good at it. Her approach is very friendly. I believe she is one of the best professors at the SJSU. Trust me even if you are a lazy student, you will learn something from her classes.

One of the most understanding instructors out there. I had a problem and she was very approachable, and emailed me couple of times asking how i was doing. I would highly recommend her. Fairly easy class, have to come to class participate though.
