Comment:

Classes were incredibly boring, she was a ridiculously tough grader. Seemed as though every assignment I turned in was heavily scrutinized for not being "up to academic standards" yet I never had that issue with any other professor, even my communications professor. Also impossible to reach outside of class so good luck getting any help.

Barb was awesome! I enjoyed her lectures. They were always on topic and she had many current and relevant case studies we focused on. There are lots of in-class quizzes that prepare you for the exams. If you come to class, you likely won't need to study too much. Barb's class was my favourite this semester.

I recommend you show up or you'll miss easy formative quizzes and case studies. Summative quizzes are easy. The group project, she won't assist you at all or provide accommodations (even when two groups bail on you, so you have to do it solo) I'm glad the content is easy, as this prof is beyond useless. Just take this course online.

Barb is just that, average. Gave a group assignment with very vague grading criteria, and if there was an issue with our group members, she would tell us to "suck it up" if you will (I have talked to 3 other groups with same response as well). As long as you do the weekly quizzes and finish the group project, you'll do fine.

Barb was an amazing instructor. She new everyone is the classes name and could recall exactly what they did wrong/great on assignments (genuinely cares for students). Only downside is the Group Project!! It goes on through entire semester and if you have a BAD group it is Horrendous to get through! But you can fire free-loaders by the end!

Barb is one of the best professors I have had while being at NAIT. She was my prof for both MGMT1120 and ORGB1135; her consistency has been changed crucial to my success - in all areas of this class!! I would like to have her as a prof in my fruit classes and recommend her to others.

Barb is one of my absolute favourites Ive had at NAIT. Her lectures are quite dry, but I believe that is a result of the actual course itself, and there is a lot of online quizzes and case studies, but then genuine helped me understand the concepts better. She is there to help you. Show up to class and do the work and you will do just fine.

Comment:

When asked questions she does not give good feedback, classes are pointless to attend because her lectures are painfully boring to sit through and they do not help. The group project is a joke, she is not clear in what she is looking for and when asked what students could do to improve, shrugs and says "i dont know"

Comment:

Barb's lectures do get boring and sometimes off topic. The online test is 20 minutes a week, and it's participation marks. Regardless of what everyones saying, she is a very easy marker as I got 100% on my major group project. As long as you're capable to comprehend the simplicity of this course it will be easy. She's a very nice lady.

Barb is not a teacher I would refer to anyone as she puts too much of a load on each student for one class. You will have weekly tests, not including case studies and reports that she assigns you to do as well.

Her teaching skills are so wrong that i dont even need to attend class. She is rude and unclear when being asked a question and expects more than she asks for. Tough grader and sets her students up for failure...

One of the worst professors in all of NAIT. She is not clear with her students when assigning tasks and when asked how to improve an assignment she simply said I don't know. Her voice is irritating and she talks so much and it is so unnecessary. If your taking this class with her good luck b/c it will be one of the most boring classes you'll have.

Barb is the worst teacher in the world. no feed back and she is rude when you ask her questions. Im only taking this class just to pass at this pint and she is very difficult to please. When we ask questions we dont receive a solid answer. She goes off topic more than she teaches. I regret taking a class with her because i learned nothing

Comment:

If you want to actually learn something in this class, do not take Barb. She is all over the place, and rarely stays on topics. Will tell you to do one thing a certain way, and then mark it any entirely different way and say you did it wrong. Very tough marker, with very unclear guidelines, and the lectures drag on.

Barb really prepares you for exams by immersing you into the weekly case studies, weekly quizzes and formative in class quizzes ; put in the effort and work! Let her know of personal matters going on with you if it is affecting your school work and if you'll be missing days. She is engaging, understanding, patient and thoughtful. ONE OF THE BEST!

Comment:

I would definitely recommend this teacher, her lectures she makes are amazing and inspiring, she wants to make sure you are following the class, so her lectures might be a little slow for others but I enjoy the fact that were like that, I would recommend her, and I would definitely take another class with her.
