Comment:

Critical on your discussion postings as they must be according to "her" format and not objectively correct. Too much content/work material for the allotted course time. The videos didn't help for her tests. The tests had errors or unfair trick questions. The good thing is you are allowed to retake a test, and best score out gets posted.

Fabulous! I took her online class for GBA 5208 at UHD. The outline of the class is wonderful. It is easy to follow, and she doesn't overload you with work. I wouldn't say that it is super easy, but it isn't assignment heavy. She gives you a very manageable workload. She grades well and offers good feedback. I'd recommend taking this class with her.

Super awesome teacher. Extremely nice. Gives great feedback. Homework is pretty easy. Tests are pretty good, as long as you listen to the lecture and read the powerpoint. But beware class participation is a must.

Comment:

If you are taking MBA Marketing this is the Prof you want. The class is a lot of work, but compared to the other professor, it is tame. Lots of reading, but fair tests. Simulation requires a great deal of focus. You are competing against students in your class. Team that does best gets an A or B, Team that does worst gets a score in the 50s.

Comment:

Too many videos, too many assignments, and an online simulation that is a complete waste of time. I wish professors would give work that allows us to learn content versus assigning a ton of crap that we retain nothing from. There is just too much work to do and you end up not learning because you are too worried about keeping up with deadlines.

Class was interesting but it was all ppt lectures and a database certification. She has class activities so do not miss class or you will get a 0. Some group presentations, pick your partner wisely. Very smart professor and cares about the students. She does not ramble about personal life like others.

You have no choice but to take Johnson for this class and at the end of the semester it was a very rewarding experience. The lady cares about the students and her reputation as she does not want you to go in blind into the marketing world. Stratsim project takes all of your time , pick your partners wisely. Overall, participate and you will be fine

She is very detailed in her grading feedback but she does not give thorough instructions so you are left doing an assignment blindly and then receiving a poor grade for it. I was very disappointed in my grades after all the work I had completed.

Doing well on the homework and quizzes will get you an A. 1 group project that was difficult, she did provide videos to guide you on what to do. Final was very tough, but she curves.

Nice Lady. Helpful but class is very confusing. The simulation project is a total waste of time . Choose your partners wisely. I took her for a summer class online it was very boring and long. Test was 100 MC, quizes were daily.

Standard online summer course. 2-3 quizzes weekly in online chapter readings. IndividualGroup market simulation game. 100 ques MC final. You won't pass this class without the book. Make sure you read through entire book and remember terms because final covers everything! Lot of reading but it's not that hard. She helps if you ask. Responds quick.

Comment:

Professor Johnson is a really nice lady. I've had her for a total of three classes and have earned an A in each course. I will say that there is a substantial amount of reading that needs to be done in this course in order to pass. There's also a major group project that weighs more than the final exam. Choose your partners wisely.

Dr. Johnson is a good prof. her instructions are not 100% clear. Half the time I found myself blindly completing assignments hping that I was doing it correctly. exams are difficult, make sure you read onlinemedia articles, be cautious of group projects select your partner wisely. Took as an elective found it very difficult and demanding

REALLY Nice lady, she will work with you but her assignments are split into parts that are due 1 week then the next part 2 weeks later then the last part a week after so it is very easy to forget one of the parts. she will also have started a new assignment before those other sections are complete. PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO DATES!

Straightforward online summer course. 2-3 quizzes weekly, individual & group MarketShare activities, take home portion of final exam (2 questions, 2 paragraphs/question), and 100 question MC final. Must have textbook to do well but the class itself is easy. Very accomodating professor and helps you if needed (not that you will need help)

I'm surprised her rating is so low-I took her online class & she is a great professor!She is very nice & holds online meetings to help guide & clarify assignments.Tests are open book and not hard.Assignments involve the use of real mkt tools like Google AdWords & MailChimp which you will actually use in your career!Rewarding class worth taking.

Comment:

Her online class consists of a weekly quiz over each chapter from her online textbook (free). She makes you "play" MarketShare program online ($35). 2 written assignments will be over the MarketShare and 1 team group report over it. Her class takes up a lot of time. It is easy if you read everything and have time for it all. 1 final exam.

Comment:

I took this professor online! We have quizzes every week and the book used can be printed online. We do not have midterms only a final exam. We also get a chance to use a simulation in which we experience having to advertise and sell a product. Overall I rate this professor great, but ONLY because I took her ONLINE. I have NO idea how she is F2F

Awesome professor! Got an A+ in her online Spring course. Group project is a little tedious, so just make sure you recruit your teammates wisely at the beginning of the semester. Class was super easy & final exam questions came from previous quizzes. Great proft; would recommend her to anyone!
