Stupid easy class. You make the exam, so everyone gets an A. Take her!!!! Extra credit on exams.

Don't understand why she has so many bad reviews. Class is very straightforward, one group project, one solo project and participation makes up your grade. The assignments are self paced, and honestly are not too difficult just take some time. Learned a lot, would recommend for 478.

Super unclear grading criteria. Very judgmental at times, especially in critiquing group projects. Seems like an Easy A from the start but ohhhh she will make you work for it. Participation in discussion forums and stuff is key because your grade depends on how much she thinks you "understand" the learning contents. Nice but confusing and unclear.

I loved her. Her syllabus can be a little overwhelming and vague, but she does that so you'll get to set up how you want to get work done. I got almost all my work done at the beginning of the semester even though it's all due at the end. No exams, one group project, engagement points, an independent project, and optional quizzes. TAKE HER!

Hands down the most confusing teacher ever. Says at the beginning of the semester that there are no due dates, then the whole semester goes by and THEN tells us there actually were due dates for things. Make up your freaking mind. Nothing about this class was structured at all and I did not learn single thing except to never take this teacher again

Good option for 478. Lot of on-your-own time assignments. Have to take initiative to get A, but doable. Use of discussion forums is good for tying class concepts in with real world, which can be difficult to do because management is such an intangible theory. Has wacky art teacher vibes but is friendly. Take if you can

I think her format is different that what we are used to so its confusing. Super understanding, attendance isn't required and you basically build your own grade. If you aren't good with time management and want exams (vs projects) then take a diff prof. I love Dr.Whitener and would def take other classes with her, she actually wants class to be fun

Was a half semester class and tried to cram a full semester in. Very unstructured and had no control of classroom
