Comments
1) Timing: class NEVER ends on time. You have to stay for 15-30 mins longer.
2) Grading: uses unfamiliar system of grading (2,3,4,5). 5 is the best, but don't expect to get 5 (4 is max, which is equal to B).
3) Process of teaching: 95% of class time uses for follow-ups and unrelated talks, and only last 10-15 mins of the class for actual lecture. Slides are unorganized.Talks A LOT about unrelated topics. Doesn't have teaching background.
4) Homework: summary - the most trickiest part, because criteria for homework is keep changing. Therefore, you have to "read his mind" to understand what he really wants to see in a summary. Summary must be written based on his slides, which he posts one day before submission dead line. His dead line for homework submission is 4 days prior to actual class.
5) Final: team written business plan. You have to come up with unique idea for business and if your idea isn't unique you had better forget about this course.
6) My suggestion: consider Ellie Ahi course that is similar to this course.
