BUS 272

edited December 2008 in General
Anybody taken BUS 272 with Brenda Lautsch or Stacey Fitzsimmons or Sinan Caykoylu?
Just wondering if they were good profs and what their teaching styles/exams were like.
Thanks!

    I took 272 with Chris Zatzick.

    Have you tried looking at www.ratemyprofessors.com?

    I had it with Sinan this semester. He's a pretty laid-back professor...typical from-the-textbook powerpoints, multiple choice exams, etc. Personally, I didn't really like the class, but he's a pretty relaxed guy.

    Sinan is useless. Doesn't teach. Gives standard lec slides that don't go into detail at all, yet he chooses exam questions from the textbook-provided question bank...which, you guessed it, require a great deal of detail.

    basically you're on your own, and it's essentially a distance ed course. Know the text front to back and you're golden.

    From my experience, this course was all about what admnur just said right up there ^

    a good prof might be a bonus, but most of the time you won't even need to go to lec as long as you do your readings and memorize the textbook.

    i took it with Stacey Fitzsimmons. nice prof. easy to score if you can memorize stuff well. mt and finals are MCQs and answer 4 out of 6 short answer questions . lots of group activities/discussion during lect and she give marks for attending tutorial.
