I would give him "0" instead of "1". I failed on the class because I was having a very hard time to understand his tests, they are hard and complicated.

Comment:

Ryalander is the most difficult teacher I'ver take. All of the tests are so hard, too much reading, assignments and discussion. The only thing good is he reposes very quick to your questions or concerns. If you want to lower your GPA, take him.

This class is supposed to be an easy class but he makes it unnecessarily difficult. He gives two essays, one big group project, exam all around the same deadline. The most draining class I've taken.

What's to say about a professor that juggles and can ride a unicycle? He's quirky. Every class, he begins with music, and he has good taste. His lectures are very simplified, and funny. There's a lot of class discussion, and real life examples. There's a quiz every week, a couple of tests online, and a pretty long research paper.

Super nice and easy to understand. His tests are all online, the only time I ever used the book was during the tests. His lectures are kinda boring but it has different information than the one he puts on Canvas.

Pretty straightforward class. Learsmart activities are easy and can save your grade. The paper is the hardest thing you'll have to do in the class. But if you do what you're supposed to on it, you'll get a good grade. Exams aren't hard if you take good notes and read your book.

Comment:

A good professor, and doesn't get the credit he deserves. Cares about what he teaches as well as the students in class. You do have to work for the grade, with online quiz every weekend, three tests, a paper, and final. Go to class, and you'll get 5+ points on your final. His lectures are entertaining, connects them to your life & he juggles.

Beware of the 5week class! There are few assignments and they are heavily weighted. Follow instructions exactly how they are, or you will easily miss points. Definitely need the book($20). Must participate and there is a group project you need to start immediately. Listen in class bc it will be on quiz and test! Can use cheat sheet on the test

Dr. Rylander 's class is a fun one! If you pay attention and take notes, you will do well on the tests. It's a very interactive lecture and if you participate he notices. 5 tests, 1 paper, and online homework reviews for each chapter. I wish he taught more classes!

I struggled with this course. There are learn smart activities due beach chapter, but you have to really read and take notes to pass the tests. If you do that youll pass.

Comment:

Dr. Rylander is a maroon headache. The homework is intense for the in-person class (if online, then its ok). Your so focused on writing, you fail to learn much about marketing. The course is designed to focus on the company your required to present for the group project.

Dr. Rylander is a good professor. He gives a lot of assignments, and there is also a group assignment, but as long as you complete everything, you should pass the class.

Comment:

The 5 week class is rushed, and focused on writing papers w/o a clear understanding of Marketing. Dr. Rylander teaching style is average and class is boring. The in-person class needs marketing exercises and actual Marketing speakers to learn Marketing. The group project is a headache.

Comment:

Disappointed with this class. Took the five week marketing class as part of the MBA, and found that quantity work was preferred over quality. He's very passionate about marketing, but instead of inspiring that passion in his students, he focuses more work and tests than any other comparable MBA class in the program.

Okay I was. Marketing major and took Dr. Rylander's classes. I made an A in almost every class. The classes were fun and call me crazy but I looked forward to going to class every single week. No joke.
