Comment:
I took an online course. Content was easily followed, but tests seemed to have very little to do with assignments-- still any easy A if you read the book and the sample tests.

Responded to emails with a single word answer or as little as possible. the class set up should have been easier than the actual class was because of the prof. I would not recommend and I will look elsewhere.

Comment:
Had for multiple distance classes. Every time the tests were extremely difficult. Once a chapter was on the test that wasn't assigned yet, but we were expected to know it anyway. Tests ask extremely obscure details. Practice quizzes and study guides are no help at all.

Just finished his ten week summer class. Amazed at how fast he would reply at emails, would have a reply within a couple hours. Midterm and final are hard, but it is an online class, its up to you to comprehend your reading. Best thing is to read the chapters week of the test, do practice tests, and the tests on the books website. Study groups help

Comment:
The midterm and Final are very hard. Reading the textbook and doing all of the online work was still useless for the tests. I took the online distance class. There is nothing you can do to really prepare for the exams but read all the material. The teacher is useless I tried to get in contact with him many times and couldn't. Try to not take him...

I took this as a Distance Education class. Read the text, watch the videos. Then take the practice quizzes on the textbook website. You can take them more than once. We had multiple choice quizzes, midterm and final. Not a bad way to go when you are crunched for time. I managed a B, and I prefer a classroom to a TV course.

Comment:
You will take away from this class what you put in. He lectures directly from the textbook, there are NO group projects (how refreshing), and he will give you practice tests that mirror the actual exams. Start the spreadsheet problem project early--it's harder than it appears! If Math/Finance is a strength, you'll be just fine!

Comment:
On-Line Business Law I:Took 2 weeks to get him to correct course material that was corrupt files. 5 days to respond to any e-mail. Never responded to phone calls. Finally quit trying. 8 Quizzes easy. 2 big tests tricky w/75% of questions you've seen before. Reading a must, but book is interesting. Videos are old & dated & sound quality bad.

Comment:
I took BA 325 in 5 weeks and it was too much. His exams are twice as difficult as the homework problems, and tricky He is a very smart man, and expects you to be as bright. I would take his course in a full term but He will kick your ass in a 5 week session. Study your ass off from the start or your screwed.

Excellent web course teacher. Gives you plenty of information to be successful. Always answers your questions, but not with much detail. Short and sweet. I've take two web courses from him got B's out of both.

Ideal telecourse. His English takes undivided atttention but the tests were not a suprise because the syllabus clearly states his expectations. Read the texts and this is a easy B.

Don't bother attending class. Absolutely everything you need to pass the class is in the book, lectures follow book verbatem. Exams are extremely hard, most questions are tricky - yet he doesn't go over different variations of problems in lectures.
