His course is focused on the textbook which is bad and good. The way he lectures and the examples he uses makes the material easy to understand. The course depends on 2 exams, 1 group presentation, and 4 pop quizzes. Pop quizzes force you to read all the chapters (and Mr. Raddon uses them for this purpose). Oh yeah, besides reading, no homework.

I absolutely loved this class. His tests are relatively easy because he provides a study guide. For pop quizzes, you just have to skim over the vocab. He also lets you drop your lowest quiz score. The group project is 26% of your grade and he gives you time in class to work on it. In conclusion, if you pay attention in class you should be fine.

Professor Raddon is awesome. His lectures are clear and his energetic and funny demeanor make them easy to remember. For our group project we had someone who refused to participate and often got into verbal arguments with us. Raddon handled the situation calmly and with much professionalism. He gives great feedback on the group project.

Awesome professor. Engaging and easy lectures. Although there is no homework besides reading and a group project, it may be a bit tough to get an A in the course as your grade is dependent entirely on quiz grades, the final and midterm, and group project. This is a very easy B but getting an A may be challenging for some students.

The class has 5 pop quizzes (you can drop the lowest), group project, midterm and final. He's a fun and patient professor who gives lots of real-life experiences as lectures. Make sure to choose your groupmates wisely as he intensely grills you and your group project. Pay attention in class and it will be an easy A.

Amazing professor! Just make flashcards of all the material that he will give you for the midterm and the final and you will be all set. The final is a little bit more difficult than the midterm, but it's perfectly doable. Also, make sure that you keep up with the reading because you will have 5 pop quizes, although your lowest will be dropped.

Funny guy. This is a fun class & a lot of people seem to love him. I was a bit irritated by his need to inject totally irrelevant, far rightwing ideas into the subject matter, such as his primitive ideas on monetary policy. He frequently advocated for a US return to the gold standard & he has no ideas how money is created.

ok, but needs to restructure his grading criteria, he doesnt have a balanced grading method (final is 45% of total grade leaving 55% for a midterm, project and quiz included),which means that if a student gets As in the rest of the class, student will still be undergraded because if this imbalance and thats not fair. He infuses right-wing ideas.

He was a good professor. This will let you determine if you want to be a business major. Interactive and has energy. Make sure you read up and make flash cards for midterm and final. The group project is important so answer all the questions on his rubric. Not a difficult class getting less than a B means you didnt show up or followed instructions

Professor Raddon is a charming professor that makes his lectures really interesting and engaging to learn about.

There is a project in the class that is not that hard and if you study for the class, it will be a breeze.

Professor Raddon was personally okay for me, but most likely due to the fact it was a 6-week intercession. It is imperative you attend all your classes as you may miss a pop quiz. You get to pick your semester partner and groups, but prepare to read. Personally, I found it very easy to doze off. I would not take again as he came off rude at times

Raddon is completely unjust and unprofessional. He didnt set up Canvas until weeks into the semester and doesnt know how to communicate with his students. With the switch to Zoom due to COVID-19, I had no clue we had meetings every week. So he DROPPED me (w/o notice) due to my lack of attendance. He said hell re-add me, and never did.

The GOAT. He assigns 1 chapter for each week to read, each takes about one and a half hours, and a video with a quiz, which is considered as free points. He posts the study guide for the midterm and final at the very beginning of the semester; studying them guarantees you an A on the test. He will not accept late work, so be careful with that.
