Great, Tons of Real world exp., Hard but fair, you can learn a lot from him

Makes course harder than it is. Very knowledgable, and unsympathetic.

Maybe I am the rare exception, but I did like him. I took the course online and he let no B.S. in the way. (Yes, he did have issues with me too.) Many online courses things aren't focused and the teachers do nothing about it. He expects a LOT but leaving the course you know your stuff.

Really enjoyed this class, even though it was taught online it was still interesting. I wish he had lectured more. He was very passionate when speaking. Take this class if you can!

This class was very interesting and I learned a great deal. It was over the internet. I can tell that it was one of the best courses so far. Lot of work but it was worth it. Mr. Grant knows what he is doing and he is a great teacher. I recommend everyone to take this course over the internet.

Annoying about small details, (names of assignments etc.) But gives you an idea of what the real world will be like, an all around great guy. Don't know what that guy was talking about him 'being fired for yelling at students'. Ken is actually attending graduate school overseas, nice try though.

If you want to get the most out of the most important class in your 4-year ITM program, take it with Ken Grant, he is better than every other prof. He is tough, but very fair and he actually forces you to learn. Definitely a great prof, one of my favourites.

Took this course online. Had a good experience but he is a hard marker and for sure short temper. Expects a lot from students.

I don't understand how everyone thinks that Ken is a horrible prof. Sure, he's not easy on his students, but that's why the majority of all the ITM700/800 awards come from HIS class. He also doesn't pull punches - perhaps another reason why students don't like him. He has NO qualms about commenting "BS" on your paper if you're tying to BS him!

i took it online. He's not that bad. Assignments were easy. But you gotta participate .. it's like 10%. The midterm and final are harder, like the mc was pretty tricky!! The essay questions aren't that hard, so you should be fine if u do the assignments and particpate in the DB.

Grant is a tough teacher but he is a nice, approachable guy at the same time. Don't expect to walk into the class and get a decent mark, u have to earn it with him. I recommend him for ITM700/800 if u really want to learn and get prepared for real life work.

I had a fun time going to Ken Grant's lecture because he is very informative. His lectures are like story telling, very interesting. He offers a lot of help for our group and made us work harder after each status report. The class average for the ITM700 report is 80 for 2006. I dont know about you, but Grant is a pretty easy marker.

Everyone has their own opinions of Ken. Personally, I think he's one of he greatest profs in all of ITM. Took a rather dull class and made it interesting. He also works you hard for your marks... but after all's said and done, said marks will most likely be good... as long as you paid attention and made the corrections he suggested, that is!

He is all about the quality of work, and makes you work for the grades. Overall there were no surprises. A great course taught by a great prof.

Ken is an awsome professor! He gives excellent real life situations/examples, shares his experiences and makes the class worth a billion dollars. If you have a chance to take 700 with him, do it! I learned in his class more things than I learned in my 3 years at Ryerson.

Grant is one of the best profs I have ever had. He makes you work hard for high marks, but I’ve never had a prof that can keep you interested for more than 2 hours of straight lecturing. He has a lot of real-life experience and uses it for practical examples in the lectures. A rare and interesting prof that I would highly recommend.

good teacher, is very fair at marking. as long as you are on point and study, then you are good.

All I have to say is...SANTA CLAUSE! :)

IT Consulting with Grant is a privilege. What more can you expect from an former partner at KPMG and Stevenson Kellogg? After this class you'll realize what it takes to be a consultant, but more importantly have a fun time doing it. Almost impossible to get an A+ but almost a guaranteed A-. GREAT PROFESSOR!

ONLINE- Great prof. Expect to work hard for the A-. Fair marker, doesn't tolerate slacking. Clear instructions and knows his material and presents it well.

Had him for ITM724 and ITM350. ITM724 is an MBA level course, and you will definitely learn a lot from it. A LOT of work required, do not underestimate this course! ITM350 was internet distance education, easy marks.

Took ITM350 online. The course is pretty straightforward, no midterm, and the exam is open book/internet. Participate in the discussions, do all the assignments, and you'll end up with a decent mark.

One of the best profs I've ever had. This is a very tough course and requires a lot of hard work outside of class in a team environment. If you keep an open mind about your business plan idea and take constructive criticism from Ken, then this can be an extremely rewarding course. Make sure you have a marketing and finance person in your group.

I am so happy I took this Technology and Organizational Strategy course with Ken! He did make us all work A LOT, but it was group work, doing cases. Very practical, challenging and useful for an MBA. Ken is passionate and will teach you, unlike many "easy" profs who let you just pass through the course with little skills and knowledge retained

Ken is a great teacher with a wealth of real-world experience to draw on. His MBA strategy class is much harder than the equivalent Global one, but well worth the extra effort.

For the first half of the semester, you're going to hate Ken as this course is heavily front-end loaded, however his methods and tactics will become more clear as the course progresses, and you'll learn to appreciate his style by the end. You'll need to work harder on reports than you're used to in other MBA classes to achieve good grades.

This prof is tough but is really passionate about the subject and gives good, interesting lectures. I think I learned the most from his Strategy class than any other class and also formed some great bonds with people from the intense group work we had to do!!

He is a very nice Professor. Always care for his students and try best to facilitate students.

i was scared to take this class because of the reviews but im having a great time. follow the guidelines and examples he's given exactly and you'll be fine. his feedback is amazing. really take it in to the next part of the assignment and you'll consistently get 80's. the class averages for the weekly assignments were 70's-80's.
