Reviews of professor Karen Lynden

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
LOVE HER! All you have to do for the tests is study her study guide & you will be fine, all tests are multiple choice. I thought this class was gonna be hard but it was VERY easy. She makes an effort to learn everyone's name & cares! Tbh you don' have to dive too deep into lectures, as long as you have the info for the study guides your good.

80% of your grade is a group project with individuals with language barrier issues and all in different time zones. My X-Culture group had 6 people, but three of them refused to participate. I have no idea what my grade will be in this course and I could very well fail this course, based on the x culture project. Such a stupid class.

I took her for international business. The sweetest professor to exist. She is really passionate about what she teaches. She creates study guides for every test. One hw assignment a week and they are so easy. she realllyyyy cares about her students and especially if you show effort and engage you will do good.

There are a lot of in class exercises that build on the material. These made the class great. Professor Lynden took a lot time to make sure everyone was successful on x-culture as well, which is a huge part of your grade. Expect a few exams, online quizzes every week, and a big international group project.

She is a decent human being class is horrible; skips over the info portion of lectures; she is unable to facilitate discussions and expects u to do it for her; she is unable to convey the material clearly and even with a study guide tests are nearly impossible to do well on; when asked how to succeed in her class I was not really offered help

Karen is great! In class activities are very easy show up, do it, get credit. Quizzes are online and easy. All test have study guides and the test come directly from study guide sometimes word for word. X culture is a good portion of your grade and Karen really helps. She goes above and beyond. The lowest possible grade you should get is a B.

Karen is one of the better professors I've had at UNCG, she genuinely cares about her students and will help you succeed in class. She always answers emails quickly and gives great advice. Her lectures are also not bad and she enforces attendance by having random in-class assignments that are unannounced.

12 week long group project with ESL group members in a different time zone. If they contribute and it's not plagiarized you're going to have to rewrite it anyway. Schedule it like you would a 3 hour class and expect the same standards. Think MKT 320 taught through interpretive dance. Professor seems like a good person.
