If you're a Gordon Ford major, you have to have this class. Look no further. Potter is an amazing professor, and this is an amazing class. Not a lot of assignments or discussion boards to worry about, tests are totally multiple choice and you get two attempts, and Dr. Potter responds very promptly to emails about any questions or problems one might have. Take Dr. Potter for this class. Easy A.

Energetic is the first word that comes to mind with Dr. Potter! Take this class with her and you will learn a lot. She is fun and makes going to class easy. Great teacher. Just don't try to turn anything late she is a stickler about that. All her tests and quizzes were online!

Dr. Potter is by far the best professor I have had at WKU. She makes class fun and interesting. Attendance is very important because that is where all your notes come from. The quizzes outside of class is what you need a book for, tests are also outside of class and are open book/open note.

I really enjoyed this web course. Dr. Potter is very helpful and provides good instructions. There were six tests on the web, 50 questions, and one hour to complete the test. You can retake the tests as many times as you like, but with different questions. I averaged taking each test three to four times. She is a good professor and I would recommend her.

I took Dr. Potter's class on the web and throughly enjoyed it. Dr. Potter is always available to answer any questions on the material and always got back to me within two hours of my e-mails. We had a blackboard test every other week which you could take over and over all week until you received a grade you were happy with. On the weeks between test we had blackboard discussion questions and answering questions at the end of the chapters. The sylabus is easy to follow and keep up with, but you must apply yourself every week and keep up with the work. There is no final exam and she even gave us an extended period of time to complete the last two test because of the Thanksgiving holiday. If you are dedicated to staying on a schedule I highly recommend Dr. Potter's web class.

This class has a lot of useful information for managers, when they graduate. In most class periods you either work in groups or watch a video. The book is very expense buy online or used, Potter wants you to buy the book with "One Key" its some online program. I never bought it so don't waste your money because you will never use it. Also if you want easy points go to class and participate. She gives crazy points if you get involved in class.

I found this course to be very easy and not time intensive. It was exactly the type of course I was looking for and I would definitely recommend it. You have exams every other week, which are completely multiple choice, and you can retake them however many times you wish to get the grade you want. You have like two weeks to take each exam. You have a few homework assignments you submit via blackboard, and there are discussion boards that you have to participate in about various topics from the chapters. The course was not bad at all and was actually fun.

Dr. Potter is by far the best teacher that I have ever taken at WKU! This material could be difficult, but the activities and the lectures that Dr. Potter conducts makes everything so easy. If you need this class, or would like to take a class to get an easy A, take Potter. The final is a little hard, however, it is online and you can take it as many times as you want. Wonderful teacher!

MGT 417 + Dr. potter as the teacher = AS EASY AS IT GETS!!
Dr. potter is very nice, works well with students, and offers plenty of extra credit opportunities. There is a mid-term test, this is multiple choice, and there is a final which is also multiple choice. Both are decently easy as long as you pay attention in class. Attendance isnt mandatory, but there is alot of in class assignments, so showing up everyday will definitely help out. Not to mention, half the time she doesnt even keep the class the entire time. :)

As others have stated here, Dr Potter is very energetic, but obviously loves to teach. Here are a few hints about her class:
GO TO CLASS..More than half the time there is either an in-class activity (worth points) or she will take attendance (worth points).
If she asks for a volunteer...jump up..you will get extra points for that.
There was one group project, but not so time intensive that it was a bad thing. A few homework assignments, but mostly one-page things that you can type in 10 minutes. Type something and you will get the points.
There are only two tests..one mid-term and one final, each worth 100 points, and this is a 400 point class. So a full half of your grade is attendance, participation and homework.
Really is the easiest class I have had of all of my 300 and 400 level classes.

This is probably one of the easiest classes I've had at WKU and Dr. Potter is outstanding. She is very frisky and energetic and you can tell she cares about every student and shows interest in teaching the class. The main thing is come to class and you will do well. She has several very EASY in class activities that you will get points on...basically if you are in class you will get points. No make ups...so just go to class! There are a few homework assignments but nothing real tedious and the tests are extremely easy. You dont have to take notes unless you absolutely want to but I do not see the reason. She uses power point and posts everything on blackboard to download. Every question on her tests come straight from the power point slides. There was never a single question on the tests that was not covered on the slides, except maybe something obvious that was covered in a class activity. Theres not much material on the tests but they are easy. Take Dr. Potter for this class, you wont regret it.

DR. POTTER IS A VERY ENERGETIC PERSON! SHE LOVES HER STUDENTS AND TEACHING. I RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE! SOMETIMES SHE OFFERS LITTLE ASSIGNMENTS BUT JUST DO THEM AND YOU WILL GET THE POINTS.

A senior at WKU, Dr. Potter was the best teacher I had. She is always full of energy. The class is mostly in-class group activities. Participation is very important. A lot of the final grade is participation points.

You must attend this class consistently. Most of your points come from in-class activities and participation. She is very high-energy, doesn't lecture much.

Dr. Potter is a cheerleader type person--very hyper, loud, excited. Class is easy--watch movies, color, little in class activities. There is a lot of small, easy assignments because her big thing is making you come to class. Tests are hard because the class is usually so easy doing the little activities, then she pulls out these questions like "List the 10 things on this one overhead."

Dr. Potter is awesome. She doesn't use Threshold Competitor so that is a plus. She gives lots of assignments (but are simple and easy and take maybe 10 minutes to complete.) These assignments help you understand the material covered.
