Although he has the intentions of being a good prof, I find his take on teaching to be extremely casual. I would pull out my notebook to take notes but in the end have barely a page taken down. He skims through stuff he finds less important and emphasizes his own business and certain material only. Leaving you a little confused in the end.

Mixed feelings about his teaching style. While he's very practical about the real world and makes you see the common sense in things, the exams are quite technical.

Had this class through Chang so I was not able to attend lectures. The midterm and exam were tough (harder than the 20% weekly quizzes) although he did say it would be harder). The weekly quizzes are straight from the textbook and the group project was marked fairly easy (make sure you're in a good group). He is clear with what is expected.

Exam (25%) and midterm (25%) were hard because I took this through chang and there was no actual lectures (self guided course). Weekly quizzes (20%) are straight from the textbook but the exam and midterm were way too difficult. The group project (30%) was marked fair but make sure you're in a good group because he's clear on what he wants.

Easily one of the worst profs I have ever had. He does not explain the major group project clearly and when asked question on course content he does not know how to answer them. Unable to provide help when you don't understand concepts which can be very detrimental in a Chang school course.

This review will be based on an online course I took with him as the teacher: Pros: -Two Attempts On Quizzes - Enough time for Midterm ( 2.6 mins per question) - Metrics are fairly easy to understand Cons: -Tough Grader on Group Assignment Worth More Than Final And Midterm - Final Not Enough Time ( 1.6 mins per question) -No lectures of any kind

You basically need to learn the course yourself as the test is based on testbanks and Daryl teaches about real life situations. Going to his classes aren't mandatory unless you're really interested about sales. Also, he marked really hard for the group project and did not give proper instructions.

Useless professor. Don't know how he has a good rating. Talks about how the textbook is trash and useless, even though the midterms are based from the textbooks. Mostly talks about his crappy restaurant. Switch if you can.

he's the definition of reading off the slides. none of his lecture materials are his own, you get tested based off questions made by the textbook developers and all he talks about is his own restaurant that relates nothing to the lecture slides. if you have him for mkt drop him you're better off with a prof that actually knows what hes talking abou

Don't even attend Daryl's lectures. All he talks about is his restaurant and many irrelevant things. He cannot teach for his life and I'm not sure why he is getting high ratings. Read the textbook instead, it will save you since the textbook authors are making the midterms and final exam. Make sure you practice the metrics, ez marks for finals

The course itself is easy but i'm not a fan of Daryl. Incredibly unorganized, all over the place lectures. Talks about himself a-lot. Not the worst but try and get another prof.

the exams are based off the people who make the textbook and his class lectures were like basically useless towards midterms and finals. he doesn't reply to emails whatsoever and he will only open your email if you tell him to in class. he doesn't even give you everything to help you like practice tests or anything until you tell him to on D2L.

This professor's assigned project is so backwards. His case is set decades ago and he wants us to have the research revolving during that time period. When business is future- and innovation-oriented, why are we working on solving cases from decades ago? Have to search through archives for relevant information... Preposterous.

He was unresponsive and unclear in his answers when he did respond. It was an online course, but his materials often contradicted each other and were clearly recycled from previous years - no effort was exerted by him. In one course module, he literally referred us back to the textbook instead of going over the key points.
