This prof gives very easy tests. Look at the material the night before you will do fine. On the bad side, she does not seem interested in the material at all and skips over things very quickly. She compares your presentation to everyone else's and gives you a mark with very limited feedback. She could improve by developing grading templates.

I did this course by distance and it was okay. She gave you updates periodically about where you should be in the text but other than that you were on your own.

Her lectures are very important to attend because she adds notes and deletes slides as she goes through the power points. Sometimes she will delete 10 or 15 slides at a time, so it's important to know what you need to study. She is well respected and makes lectures interesting with her humour and sarcasm, and she always ends early. Tests are easy.

One of the best profs I have had! She made 2 and a half morning class fly by. Her lectures are very interesting and easy to follow along, however attendance is important because she skips over many slides in some chapters. Genuinely cares about her students and tells you exactly what to study. You definitely will not regret taking this prof!

Good prof, you should definitely attend the lectures as she tests on questions based on her notes and what she talks about in class. It only has 2 midterms and an exam, all online, but don't take that lightly as they require to study the material and are not straightforward questions.

Professor Clouston was fantastic! This was my first time having her as a prof, & though I heard horror stories about Corporate Financial Management, she did a wonderful job in explaining course concepts and ensuring everyone who attended class knew how to thrive in this course. I would highly recommend her as a prof, she's a doll!(very stylish too)

Professor Clouston is one of the best profs I've had at MUN. Her expectations are clear and there are no surprises on her tests.

its better to take 2010 online if you hate presentation and group work because the inperson class (Andrew Kim) is literally all that. 3 assignments, 1 midterm. prior to midterm, i thought it was dumb she was testing us because if you look through the text, theres really nothing to test on. It was just a grammar test and very easy. Easy class.

The structure of the course is outdated lectures, irrelevant exam content, lengthy MCQ, lack of preparatory support. The focus seems to be on making passing the course exceptionally difficult. This approach undermines the educational process and fails to respect the students' investment of time, effort, and money. ONLINE BUT OFLINE EXAMS.

Compared to the other choice for BUSI 1000, she was fantastic. Without comparison, she is a good professor. You need to read your textbook and the slides (in her pre-recorded lectures she skips over some of them). Has no relationship with students outside of the D2L learning space. All assessments are multiple choice, just find practice ones online

I would not recommend this professor as for, the course is graded on 2 Mid-terms and a Final, there are no practice or examples used throughout the course which makes it extremely difficult to know how to study for this course, I found she also did not give enough information to be able to answer questions on the exams properly. I would avoid.

Prof. Clouston's class was very enjoyable. The only complaint would be how there are only 3 assessments worth 30%,30% and 40%(final). It is quite easy to hold a high average if you attend class, as she always cuts out slides and says directly what she will and will not be testing. If you are looking for a class with little effort needed, this is it

This is the 3rd course I have taken with Christine and I throughly enjoy her lectures. She does not beat around the bush and is straight to the point. There are not many evaluations so you really need to make them count. She hand writes all the notes, there is no powerpoint. Overall, her lectures are engaging but reading the textbook is vital.

The course is business writing - to teach students how to write clear and proper business papers. But the instructions are itself not written properly in the course. Grades were deducted for each assignment for the details and facts which were never mentioned anywhere in the course. How is a student supposed to know without letting them know.

She is a good professor, and her lectures were interesting. The exams are based on what she teaches during her lectures, so participation is important. However, she grades by only three tests so the grading is limited to that. As long as you attend lectures and study at home, you should do fine.
