The course is blended with in-class tutorials. Overall the course is pretty basic but it's really hard to reach the prof and TA's. It's been 2 weeks since the final grade update deadline and the grades still haven't been posted.

I took this course since there weren't any 6 credit courses that matched my timings. The TA leaders are very nice. Overall the course is really content-heavy.

THIS COURSE IS HORRIBLE. PROFESSOR KEHOE MAKES YOU BUY HIS OWN WRITTEN BOOKS THAT ARE SUPER EXPENSIVE THAT ARE VERY CONFUSING AND WASTE OF READING. THE TUTORIAL CLASS IS HORRIBLE. NEVER AGAIN WILL I TAKE A COURSE LIKE THIS.

I took Dr. kehoe classes a few years back. He is a great educator, though the duration of the exams was always short. However he has the most horrible TA, now forgot her name, is an older woman, she laughs all the time, treats the students nicely until the submission of the educators rating forms, afterward, she becomes rude, and hard marker.

This was one of the best courses I have ever taken! I learned so much about the human mind and our interactions. Lectures are so relatable and enjoyable. It helped me understand why we behave the way we do, making me an even better understanding human being. All I have to say is, prof Kehoe and Dagmara (TA) are the best and ridiculously hilarious!

I'll be real here: took these courses to make my schedule lighter (as it only requires 1 hour for a tutorial - and there are many time slots to choose from). LOTS of memorization required for quizzes and the final exam, but he basically tells you exactly what to study for the exam. The quality of the online lectures and PPTs def needs improvement.

Don't take COMN 211 class. The TAs are hard makers for no reason. if you don't have anything memorized for the exam, you will not get a good mark. Seriously, for the first exam, everyone failed. The highest mark was 60. Do not take the class. Especially, if you want for your elective. The class sounds easy and it should be, But they make it hard.

Kehoe's class are great because first of all it's online, secondly the notes are provided for you and thirdly the T.A (Dagmara) goes in detail about certain topics and clarifies any question you have. One thing that is annoying is the online lecture on Youtube because sometimes the sound gets distorted. Also, be ready to memorize for the exam!

Comment:

The professor explain into great detail the course material, in a way that not only inspires to learn more, but also allows the student to understand the material to the point where studying becomes more a review, and knowledge from the course becomes everyday knowledge. However, is important to note that the text book and attendance help as well.

A lot of memorizing is required for this prof. You will have to memorize things word for word to get an A on the exam.

The class is blended, so the lectures are online and virtually make you feel like you are in class. If the quality of the videos were better, they'd be perfect. Tutorials are okay, not very productive but still a good experience. I learned quite a bit, it's not a difficult course, and keeping with the lectures is probably the best way to get an A.

Amazing course. This was an online class but with a tutorial which made is a little easier. He is a great prof and the lectures are broken up into different parts so they are easy to watch. He uses a mix of videos as well in his lectures and makes the lectures interesting. Only 1 quiz in the course and 2 essays and then the exams. Loved this class.

He gives really good lectures, they are easy to follow and he makes funny comments or jokes that keep you interested. The lectures are not too long and come in sections so if you do need a short bathroom break or food or just stepping away, there is opportunity to do so.

Comment:

Not the type of quality education we should be getting from York. The online lectures are an interesting idea, but they're terribly executed. The website looks like something out of a 90's sitcom and video-lectures are bad quality. It's almost as if the course is designed this way - not to enhance learning - but to make his job as a prof. easier.

Interesting professor. Expectations clear. Tough to study for exams because he wants full memorization of content. Timed Quiz is highly unfair. Set up to fail when you have to answer 25 questions in 15 minutes. Exams are long and are based on case studies. Online course but never drops in to check on students. Only take the course if its required.

Extremely confusing assignments. The quiz was 20 questions in 15 minutes for 3112 an in 3111 was 15 minutes for 15 questions. Way too crammed and high pressure. The lectures were okay, he clarified some things but tended to ramble. I found the text to be confusing and didn't really help.

Comment:

All courses taught by Kehoe are very useful for those who are planing to work in organizations and who are majoring in business. I learned lots of useful things from his courses. I took 3 of them. And if you will keep up with the lectures you will do good. Textbook is not needed for his courses because all info is on slides.

Comment:

horrible, they really need to change the time limit on these tests... 15 mins for a 20 question quiz.. it should be at least 30mins so we can relax and slow down and think about the questions.... other than that its a pretty boring course
