A really fun class. You have a group project that goes throughout the whole semester. Everything is connected. He doesn't put lectures online so make sure you are taking notes in class. He likes to get to know the class so be open to talking to him. I'd definitely take him for another course.

One of my favorite class I took in a long time. You don't have to show up but if you do you will not regret. No tests, couple assignments here and there and a GROUP PROJECT. Now choose awesome people and you will be fine. The Midterm and Final are a group presentation. As to the books I personally only used it 2-3 times to do some assignments.

I enjoyed this class and its unconventional structure. The first half of each class is based on interactive discussions, which may not be comfortable for some; it is a communications class. The content and assignments aren't overly difficult, but hard work and having a great group doesn't guarantee an A. Make sure you use an outline for everything.

It makes sense that a professor teaching communication will talk with you and not to you. Instead of talking about a subject, he guides a class conversation. If you make a mistake, he guides you through learning from it. You will learn how to communicate via email, sure. But you will learn so much more if you open yourself up to try.

Quite a poor experience, especially in a class that could potentially teach and inspire so much.

Professor Lovelace was a great Professor when it came to his lectures and was very chill. Attendance isn't mandatory but there are times during the semester project when he'll want you in class. A semester project worth lots of points and may seem intimidating, but it was a lot easier as time went on.

This professor was one of the best professors I have had. He wanted you to feel comfortable and like you were his equal. He would ask you about your weekend and morning which would break the ice every morning and it was quite nice.

Professor Lovelace is an AMAZING teacher. There is a group social media project you work on the whole semester 3-5 people. You select a nonprofit or small business and recommend things to enhance their social media. Lovelace creates a warm and welcoming environment. He cares about his students and their success.

The BRO of business. Lovelace is a very cool dude. You can tell that he cares about his students. There is weekly quizzes that are pretty easy, with 3 exams. As long as you listen to the lectures and/or refer to the book, youll be fine. One group project that is very fun. Although when you ask for help hes not too detailed. Take him!

Professor Lovelace is a really nice guy who definitely cares for his students. The class itself was fairly easy although majority of your time will be spent on the social media project, which can be difficult depending on your group. If you get a good group, then this class is an easy A.

Course material was not interesting nor learned anything important. Stuff like "Beware of slackers in a group project" like thanks for teaching us that. Easy class but I don't recommend going to class time.

The class is easy, however the group project felt extremely disorganized. He takes random attendance and doesn't take into account all of the other days you are present in class. This is extremely frustrating as you can miss only one class and if he happens to take attendance that day you are given a 0.

Takes attendance on random days and can bring your grade down. He can be difficult with the group project since he does not answer your question with a yes or no. It's always "possibly" "could be". He does not give examples from previous class except the book for the group project. It felt very disorganized with due dates

Lectures were boring and repeats stuff from the book, but its not enough for the quizzes. He can spend up to 20 mins just talking about a quote lol. Group project was okay if you have a good group, but he's really bad at answering questions. Doesn't give you a straightforward answer. Wish we had assignments in class related to the report instead

Dr. Lovelace's grading system sucks especially for the project. It can impact your grade drastically, 200pts per discussion post, 500pts for group project, 400pts for peer review of other people's presentation and 800pts for the individual part of the project. Attendance is taking randomly and can greatly impact your grade.

Professor Lovelace outlines the class clearly, or at least he thinks he does, so he won't answer questions you have for assignments or individual presentation. There's a group project, so pick the right members. He also is strict on grading; if you make a mistake in uploading an assignment, he says too bad :( He's bearable but can be frustrating.

Professor has good lectures and makes an effort to make everyone practice formal work practices such as greetings etc. Lectures directly correlate with assignments/quizzes/tests which is a plus. Group project involved improving a business through social media. Otherwise great professor.

There's a huge group project due at the end of the semester, definitely get those academic journals out the way first! A quiz after every chapter, and 2-3 exams. The workload is average. You can tell he genuinely cares about his students and loves his job. I would take him again if given the chance! 10/10 recommend.

Dr. Lovelace is great! This class has a lot of assignments and quizzes. I would say the most important thing from the class was the group project. Basically all the lectures and quizzes prepare you for the project. The project may sound difficult in the beginning, but its really not, so don't get scared. 3 exams, two in person and final is online.

Presentation recorded on zoom and was played in class. Group project seemed intimidating and confusing at first but it's really not as complicated as it seemed. Professor is a funny guy, but he's serious when it comes down to business. First two exams are in class but taken on canvas, final is at home, all exams uses lockdown browser.

Attendance is taken on a few pre-selected days. Try to finish the Group Project in the first 4 weeks MAX and keep asking him how to improve it. Great at presenting, shares some very useful personal experiences. Organized, collected, interesting in terms of knowledge and character. Read the book and take notes!

The class failed the exam and he did not care. Quite a stern guy and makes people uncomfortable. I hope he can be more empathetic and caring to future students. Additionally, grading can be unfair and random. I do appreciate that he asks why? when a student answers a question, it does make you critically think.

I'm rating MGMT117. this class clears your intensive writing. Take his class and avoid buying the textbook. Bus. Ethics & Society was a good class. He tells stories but also teaches the class. Laid back but takes the syllabus seriously. Participate!

The debate was amazing, but the exams were horrible. He didn't give any test prep and was very vague with what would be on the exam. I heavily studied my notes and his notes but the test was composed of 95% of textbook material. It was also very specific material… never clarified if it was open book, just I open note… cooked.

This is for his BUS courses. He is extremely difficult to communicate with, never gives clear answers, and can't seem to understand anything he is asked. He gives zero feedback on what you did wrong on assignments. BUS 310 is completely useless as you can learn the material in any other class. Instructions are unhelpful and he is not understanding

Dr. Lovelace is an amazing instructor. He's professional but also has a sense of humor which is refreshing. Quizzes and exams require lots of critical thinking, you can't fly by without studying. The skills he teaches can be used in lots of other business classes. Syllabus outlines everything and he provides ample extra credit. Highly recommend!

Guy is nice, but at the same can be strict / emotional at times. Provides tips that can be applied to life and corporate career if you listen to lectures. He is more focused on tips for climbing up the ladder and corporate world which is solid. Exams have a bunch of trick questions and can have random stuff on there.
