She really cares for her students and is extremely nice overall. You can tell she cares about wanting her students to do well in life and wants to be a part of it. There's not tests in this class, only weekly quizzes and excel exercises but the quizzes has two attempts. Online lectures aren't mandatory but you get extra credit for it.

If you have ever gotten a job or done anything in the world as an adult this class is useless. She treats you as a child. Zero credit if something is turned in 1min late, assignments and material are in 50 different places making it very confusing. Material is over nonsense that is never used in the actual business world.

pretty nice professor. she gave ample time for projects and was generally pretty clear about expectations. if you were ever confused you could pop over an email and as long as its during a reasonable hour she would give a fast response. 10/10 nice lady, very understanding

Comment:
I hated this class bc she didn't bump me to an A (I needed 1 point, she uses a point system, not %). She assigned weekly readings and the excel assignments weren't even her videos. Her weekly videos were short and unhelpful. Why am I aiding in paying her salary if she isn't even going to teach herself? Mutual respect is lacking, that's not okay.

Dr. Barber's class was great. There is a lot of reading for the chapter quizzes but its not that bad. I got no less than a B on quizzes, not really hard just tedious. Alot of other assignments due weekly which can be alot if you dnt stay up on it. Group project was easy. I got a B in the class due to my laziness but overall, take the class!!

Professor Barber is great! Very understanding with COVID, always makes herself available and her TAs. Helps you learn the business world well overall and pushes you to do your best. Everything you are tested on is in her lectures or the textbook so you won't be tested on anything you don't know. You won't regret taking her class!

The class looks like a lot a first glance, but its not. 2-3 homework assignments and chapter quiz due weekly. Group project is fairly simple. Lectures arent mandatory but they help out with extra information. Quizzes come mostly from chapter videos

She seems like a nice person and the class was pretty easy. The only problem was the quizzes because it was too much reading and you only have one attempt. She gives lots of extra credit options so that was great. Make sure you always turn in assignments on time and you will for sure end with a good grade.

Lockdown needed. Weekly assignments,excels and quizzes. The group project is very simple if you're lucky to be PLACED in a good group. Assignments are the basic resume, cover letter, etc. Excels have step-by-step, so it's not hard to do it. Quizzes are the problem since there's a lot of slides to remember by heart. Other than that, easy class.

Optional zoom class every week. Easy class if you keep up on the weekly reading, excel, and quiz. The hardest part was finding your group members for the group project. Responds quickly to emails and gives plenty of time to complete assignments. No exams or final.

Prof. Barber was a decent teacher. Her work isn't very hard, but more so tedious. You have to be consistent because you have weekly quizzes and excels. She clearly states everything though, so once you get in the zone you'll be fine. You do have a group project at the end, and I was lucky enough to have good teammates who got it done. Overall, good

She is a really great online teacher. She has lectures once or twice a week, but they are not mandatory because she does PowerPoint video lectures too. She really cares about her job and her students and wants us to succeed!

Dr. Barber was a great teacher. She made sure to give great guidelines and help us as much as she can. There is no final or midterm, just weekly assignments which are pretty straight forward. Just make sure to do light reading and you will do great!

This class was very easy. She always gave feedback after every assignment. Definitely helped me with work and everyday things. You do have 1 weekly quiz with lockdown browser+camera but you can use notes and there is group project at the end.

Literally one of the easiest professors for BUSA. During covid, everything was online, there's no tests, majority of the class grade is from easy lockdown quizzes that you can use notes or a separate laptop on, and excel sheets. The only eh kinda thing is the group project at the end, super easy, you just have to reach out to partners. 9/10

Professor Barber makes things complicated by not even stating instructions. You have to do it yourself and she makes everything harder than it actually is.

COVID review: Her class is crazy easy. No exams. Everything on the quizzes is in the textbook (there's a free pdf online!) so read the chapter. The class is huge, so don't expect much feedback/interaction, but she's nice & replies quickly. Your biggest problem will be tracking down your group members for the project

this class was pretty easy but i wouldnt recommend the professor if youre actually trying to learn. she makes attendance mandatory even though the lectures are completely off topic and pointless. she also calls out anyone for coming in late or leaving early. you learn everything on your own through a textbook which all the quizzes are based on.

Easy A+ class. Attendance is mandatory so make sure you show up, but the lectures are absolutely pointless. Everything is done online and you can easily get ahead of schedule. She will single you out for arriving early or trying to leave the lecture before she "dismisses" the class.
