Comment:

She is very good at presenting the theory, REALLY involves the class (you will do activities in class pretty much every class), and is really a great professor. Actually loved going to class. The exams are A LOT of memorization though. Informational overload for me. BUT she's very lenient in her grading. Just write SOMETHING close to the answer.

Comment:

One of the best experiences I have had in a class. If you want to actually learn something take Lea as a teacher. There is no textbook, instead she uses a book written by a famous business man named Daniel Pink, super easy to read. Her entire class is hands on application of theories and there is even opportunities for internship.

Comment:

She is a very knowledgeable guy. Her class content is very clear and useful. There are two exams and no final! Her grading is fair but it's not easy to get a high mark in her class. I will recommend her if you really want to learn something and not only for an easy A. Her group project weights a lot

Lea is a great teacher. Half the class is a lecture and half is getting in your group to answer questions related to the readings. Helps you get prepared for the midterms. No final. I definitely recommend.

Comment:

Lea is a great teacher. Her classes are interesting as it is half lecture and half discussing in groups the material read. The readings are actually interesting and not extremely time consuming. There are two midterms and no final, which is awesome and the group project is very doable. I would definitely recommend.

Prof Katsanis really cares for her students. She is very knowledgeable and has lots of experience in sales. She gives 2 midterms, no final. Books assigned are actually very interesting! Exams are heavy but she is an extremely fair grader and she gives the material you need to study. Would definitely take her again, she's a great prof!

horrible class, she will put you on the spot constantly, her projects aren't clear, you have to know the book by heart to do well on exams, and she is a hard marker... i wish i would have dropped this class when i had the chance.

Comment:

Class is a waste of life... however garanteed b- without working hard. i never studied more than a couple of hrs the night b4 for her exams. she's one of those teachers that likes gloat about her stories and lame life. She's not that hard a marker but i can see why people would say that, she's looking for specific answers.

She's a nice person but her class sux. The concept sounded amazing but her grading of the project and exams is completly unfair!! 15% of your grade is based on some computer simulation game. Take this class if you want a guaranteed C+

Comment:

She seems nice on the 1st week of school coz nthg is due n life is still "relax". But once things starts rolling, she turns into an evil, close minded witch. U must agree w/ her r else U will fail (proven: 2 identical answer yet one gets it right and the one disagreeing got it wrong.) project picky. and if u are late=bad impression, fail is near

Comment:

Shes a nice teacher, and like others say she might disagree with you at times because she was a VP in the pharma industry. This course goes over probably some things you knew but in a structured way. I enjoyed the course except for sim-cell which is a pain in the ass, her exams are fair just as her marking is. Anybody interested in sales should tak

Comment:

If you want to be challenged that this is NOT the class to take. No free thinking, or application thinking involved in this class. Memorizing the text book and regurgitating the info is a major part of this class.
