Gordon was a great professor. He made topics relevant and interesting and was able to keep his audience engaged. We need more Profs like Gordon, he is truly amazing!

Awesome instructor and did his best to make the information interesting and relevant. Very chill and laid back. Weekly assignments, one solo presentation and one group presentation for the final. No textbook. No midterm or written exams.

Fair and impartial grading, friendly and approachable demeanor, and rich and interesting content have made my learning experience enjoyable and rewarding. Despite the potential challenge of achieving an A grade, I highly recommend this course as an elective for business students.

Really great prof! Super nice and approachable. His material isnt too overwhelming and he wants all his students to do well. As long as you read the material you will do well. I would definitely take a class from this prof again.

I was recommended him, and that recommendation was good, one of the best prof i've ever had. He is very funny, he showed up to the first class, and we just watched videos on youtube.

This class was fun, consisted of class participation, 7/8 reflections, a 5 minute single presentation, and a final group presentation, no final. He was very knowledgeable and interesting to listen to and class went by fast. None of the assignments were difficult to complete. Offers variety of grading methods and open to others viewpoints.

He was a good prof. His lectures consisted of powerpoint and pretty much reading off it and providing examples (videos) to explain the concept further. His midterm was all MCQ and for final he had MCQs and short answer questions (which he told us before), and he let us have a cheat sheet. I'd definitely take him again & 100% recommended!

He was great! Very realistic teacher and very kind. Only tested on two exams and weekly reflections, he asked for a textbook but didn't use it much. I highly suggest him! 10/10

Gordon is literally my favourite prof. His lectures are really funny, informative, and easy to pay attention to. Also, the course content of bus260 was really interesting. Not a whole ton of assignments, just weekly reflections that are easy to do good on. I'm hoping to take more classes with him in the future.

BUS 260 with Gord was a solid choice. He posted all the slides online, so you really didn't have to go to class if you didn't feel like it. Very funny guy who often had meme, movie or music references. Class could be boring at times- but that's the nature of 260 content to me. Midterm and final were challenging but manageable.
