I found the mind maps easy to understand and it taught me a whole new way to study in other classes. It keeps all of the information in the course organized and if anyone can keep an open mind about learning something new, they would appriciate the mind maps as well. As an added bonus he's nice to look at for a semester ;)

Kris is a nice guy and he's very understanding. But he takes a very long time to mark. A one page test took longer than a month to be marked. I also feel like I didn't learn a lot in this course. He didn't teach the concepts very well and I felt unprepared for the quizes. If you put effort in you will get the marks. But I felt the class was useless

Alright class, the textbook helps for the quizzes, and you use it for in class exercises. You'll have to wait for assignments to get marked but they are really easy to do. Not much direction to the group paper but if you ask questions he's helpful. Easy marker for sure, definitely an easy A!

Worst teacher I've ever had. Sure, it was the easiest A I've ever gotten, but it was clear that he didn't care about the class. All he did was talk about his business and how great it was, and didn't teach us anything.

Kris is honestly a nice teacher, just don't take this class too seriously. There is a LOT of homework in this class - like weekly quizzes, assignments, and mini projects - but none of it is very hard. Just be prepared to read the articles every week and participate a bit, and you'll do fine.

I took MGT 2081 - Professional communication skills online with Kris through the University of Lethbridge. I have to say it was the class I enjoyed the least in my entire degree. I received a B in this class, but I feel like I learned nothing at all. If I had 2000 words it might be enough to complain but I cannot do it in 350. Terrible class.

absolute worst prof and person I have met. Don't expect any feedback only horrible grades that he will not explain :) He does not care about student success and frankly gets pissed off if you have any questions which he can't answer anyway. He sucks, he is rude, and fosters an environment of failure :) do urself a favour & don't ever take his class

Kris is a great prof. This class is hard as it is but material learned in class reflects the assignments you will be doing. He gives good feedback on your work and responds very quickly to emails. This is a very easy class if you attend lectures but if you don't it may be confusing. Work shops you do for it set you up to be prepared for the tests.

I am not too sure what people are saying about there being heavy quizzes. The readings you do before the quiz are literally so short and the group work is so easy. Put in the effort and go to class and you will get an A. Yes he wrote the readings himself but they align with the course. May seem like a lot but it truly is not...

Kris is not a good prof. His feedback is useless, takes forever to grade assignments, and nothing new was learned from the class. One benefit is attendance marks, participation is worth 20% so that is a nice grade boost. He is kind to students when it comes to being sick, and responsive in emails, but that is it.
