Additional Comments |
I took the online version of the course and learned very little. I read the book chapters for each section, worked the problems, and then took the test. Working the problems is difficult because the program that comes with the book is hard to figure out and there is no help available. Also, there is no feedback to let you know which problems you missed. On most of the problem sets I scored 50 - 75%. The regular tests were easier and there was time to look up the answers I didn't know. You do need to read before the test so you have an idea of what you are doing. The regular tests can be repeated to raise your score.
I contacted Dr. Ferguson a couple of times through email and he was somewhat helpful. I never tried to contact him any other way.
If you are a management major, I recommend taking the class in person. You probably need to know some of the concepts covered in the course and the online version doesn't seem a good way to learn them. If you do take the online version, start early and work ahead. I did that and the cushion I built up allowed me time to devote to other classes when they had tests or projects due.
