Comment:

Project, two tests and Connect. He also gives discussion as a grade but because he forgot to assign it, he made it extra credit. Very interesting class, content was slightly tough at times. Discussion was a broad question, no right or wrong criteria. Professor Nag is super smart and helpful. Attendance is part of the grade so don't skip too much.

Comment:

Prof. Nag was by far the most inadequate teacher at Towson U and no matter how many classes complain about him the school does nothing. Do not take hime, but if you must, take his classes online. A.V.O.I.D.

Awful awful awful professor. Nothing he says makes sense. Tough grader for no apparent reason. Takes off points for whatever reason he wants to. Doesn't answer emails. Do not take.

Comment:

Project, two tests, Connect, and Discussions. Which is a lot but you can manage. Discussions are not clear-so i would write just to make it 200 words. Vague on project comments. Tests are Quizlet, and chegg questions. CHECk at the end of the year that all points are correct.

Comment:

Professor Nag is a nice guy but a TERRIBLE professor. He told us the week of our exam to not use any notes or slides he showed in class and to only study the book, which we had never used. He also got angry with our class about attendance and changed his grading style two weeks before the end of the semester. His exams are also terribly difficult.

Comment:

Prof Nag does care, and wants to connect with his students. His style of teaching is ineffective at best. He reads off the powerpoints provided by the book and then relates the material to either Boeing or McDonalds. The tests are open notes, but you should just write in the whole book since material covered in class isn't on test. TAKE ONLINE!!!!

Comment:

Took this online over the summer. Was extremely easy, the tests are based off the text. The SAP project can be a little confusing, just start early and take your time. If you have questions he can be little vague and not always helpful. But I would take him again.

Comment:

Dreadful professor. Unorganized, uncaring and uninteresting. He knows his stuff, without a doubt, but he cannot teach. Lets you bring in handwritten notes but tests are too difficult. Project are given without much guidance. Extremely boring lectures. I have learned nothing in his class. Please, if you have the chance, take it with someone else.

Comment:

I would not recommend taking this professor due to a lack of organization and no focus on students understanding or success. He lectures to a room full of people who are on the computer or their phone because he has no enthusiasm or engagement. Also, his exams have nothing to do with his slides or what we talked about in class. Take someone else.

Gave absolutely no feedback during online classes. I got a 5/10 on a discussion, and he wouldn't even tell me why I didn't do well and told me to "work harder".

Comment:

I feel bad for the guy since everyone does not pay attention to him. He's a sweet old dude who wants to connect with his students. The second part of the tests are hard since you have to answer short answers. Getting a A- or a B+ should be easy since you have an open notes for the exams.

Comment:

You can skip class and still pass this class. His lectures are long but I block him out. Attendance counts but you can skip and sign in later. There's an easy website project and everyone received a 100 on it. There are 3 test and they are all open notes. Just copy the powerpoint slides into a notebook and there will be no need to study.

The lectures can get long and boring, but Professor Nag means well. He's tests are open book and open notes. There are no quizzes and there is group homework assignments for each week that are super easy. Easy A.

Show up, write the book into a notebook and use that on the open note exam test. Easy excel project and simple team questions. Lectures are extremely boring, but it is fairly easy. Test questions are tricky

Comment:

I would only take nag online. His tests contain questions that literally could have come from anywhere on earth. I'm not sure where they come from, which is why you take it online- Google!. His discussions are not too bad, just make sure to write a lot of content. His 2 projects are VERY specific. he lets you resubmit em 2 times so take advantage.

Comment:

I would definitely recommend this class online. There are online discussions that you have to put in a good hour or two each week which isn't that bad at all. There are some homework assignments . There are only two exams and two projects which he can help you with along the way. It is not a hard class to pass if you try.

Comment:

He is very nice. Class consists of: Team questions like every other week. These are straightforward questions completed with a group - very easy points! Two exams and a final - he allows cheat sheets. Tip: his exams are very specific use the book! Also a very easy excel project which you can submit multiple times and a discussion question thru BB.

Comment:

The lectures can get long but if you take good notes, you will pass with a good grade. I cannot believe people find him difficult - exams can be very specifi but they are all based on general ideas from notes on slides. He is a really nice guy and loves to tell stories and is very passionate about the topic. Sweet guy & not much work outside class

Very tough class. He does not make the assignments and important points clear in lecture. The textbook will be your best friend to pass because his exams are textbook oriented. The lectures will not help on the exams.

2 Open note exams and the final. one easy excel project that he gives u the answers to and lets u attempt it 3 times. Transcribe the textbook and u should be good for the tests. Attendance is checked but he passes around a sheet so u could have a friend check ur name off as being there. Easy class. Lets u text and use computers on top of desk.
