Comment:

I am not a fan of Dr. Alderson. I didn't get any grades back until the morning grades were due. I would ask her questions as to why I got certain grades on some things and her feedback was very vague and apparently she gave the same feedback to other people as well so it wasn't personal. I should not have gotten the grade I got.

I've taken 2 management classes from Professor Alderson. She's clear in what she asks for and gives great feedback. Quizzes and tests are online. If you do as expected you're sure to get an A.

Comment:

It is already a couple of weeks past the middle of the semester and I haven't gotten a single grade on ANY of the assignments that we have already had in this class. I have no idea if I am doing what is expected of me at all. Hoping for the best? Not at all how I would like to spend my semester.

I took Ms. Alderson for Business Communication. She required the homework to be done but its only for extra points I believe. If you do all your assignment you can make an A.

Ms. Alderson is a great teacher. I took Business Communications online this semester and she is the most interactive teacher I've ever had for an online class. She is very very helpful. There is no reason anyone should make a bad grade in this class.

Ms. Alderson was a very good teacher, I took her this summer and she was very considerate of the short time frame. We had a lot of work to cover in a short period of time, but she made it easy and she also offered extra credit if needed AWESOME TEACHER I would take her again

Comment:

Mrs. Alderson's online BCOMM course was the easiest, most simple online course I have ever taken. She would always explain our assignments in detail and give us clear cut due dates. The only thing that she was kind of bad about was grading things quickly. Easy A if you keep up with things.

This class was a breeze I would recommend this professor to everyone who needs this class. attendance wasn't a big deal. I passed with a B if I would have done the extra credit I would have passed with an A. Gives a lot of work but not difficult as long as you follow the instructions you will get a good grade. Do yourself a favor take her

The best online course I have ever taken. Professor always stays in communication with students, and is quick to respond if there are any questions. Class is well organized, and it does not over burden you with too many assignments. I would definitely recommend this professor to anyone looking to take a subject she teaches.

To date, she has not graded anything I have turned in except for my introductory discussion post. I have turned in two papers, submitted 14 quizzes and 3 additional discussion posts - none of these have been graded. I have no idea what my standing in this class is, and class is over in 2 weeks. She seems disorganized but I'm expecting an A, I hope

Take Alderson online! If you read the material and do your assignments exactly the way you are told in the instructions you will be fine. 4 easy tests/a short research paper/audio powerpoint/ and extra credit quizzes. If you actually try there should be no reason not to make an A.

This class was very easy. Pay attention to the syllabus b/c she changes it often. The online tests and quizzes were extremely easy and straightforward, you really don't have to study much to pass them. Every time I emailed her, she has returned my email promptly - no complaints here. I found the material interesting and easy to understand.

Comment:

Due dates always got pushed back, assignments from the start of the semester are still not graded so don't take her if you like to keep up with how you are doing throughout the semester. Easy assignments, short research paper, audio presentation. Easy professor, but doesn't keep up with grading.
