I had no idea what was going on at all during the entire semester. He is so ambiguous in his explanations. The class was boring and waste of my time. you are tested on your comprehension of articles, so you basically are learning nothing!!!!!

You will learn a lot, but may not realize how much you've learned until after the course is over and you start to apply all that he has taught you in other classes. There is a great deal of reading and the mid-term is difficult, so study like mad. If you need help, he is easy to talk to.

Loved the class. Found class 2b very engaging..Lectures are direct & straight to the point. All of his exams are from the lectures & readings. It is important to go to class. He gives lots of case studies & is very fair about grading. If you understand the context of the material you should do well on the exams. There are projects as well. No books

Great guy! He genuinely cares about the students and wants to hear our ideas. Like someone else said, he is good-natured, has a good sense of humor and makes the work come alive because his passion for it shows through.

I had him as my summer internship professor. The papers and portfolio we had to submit were pretty easy. What bothered me was that the entire class took place online but he took forever to reply to emails. How frustrating! Then I didn't even get feedback on my last major assignment I submitted. No word, and I just saw my grade up on myrutgers.

he assigns a mad amount of reading... guy says he can't do it himself, but expects us to do it. he's great, teaches well, but he thinks we should wake up with a book in our hands and go to sleep with a book by the pillow. that's the terrible part.

Mark was amazing! Very good teacher - very into what he was doing and motivated to help you learn. He was a little over the place sometimes, but always good humored and a fair and good teacher.

This was one of the few classes where the real world value is apparent; there's a lot of material here necessary for negotiating in the business world and home life. Online assignments got annoying, you do have to play well with others; takes a while to post grades, but the good outweighs the bad.
