Mixed thoughts on Dr. Chambers. Requirements can be confusing & you need look in many places to find them as they can be scattered a bit - not exactly laid out in one spot. Overall though, she grades and responds quickly; will tell you what she wants if you don't submit what she's expecting. Sticky on turnitin.com (make sure <10%). Otherwise fair.

I took a class from this Prof in Sept. I had no issues with her at all. I had no need to ask for additional clarification/assistance. She graded quickly. My only issue was the "closed book" midterm. It's more on the course rather than the prof, but I took mine "closed book" but there's no guarantee others would do the same--so I got a low score.

This course required a lot of writing very long papers based on several different case studies. The strategic plan was a good assignment I learned a lot about the company I selected. I did not have any communication with the instructor outside the discussion postings the instructions for the assignments were clear cut and the template helped.

What a great disappointment. This course does not offer anything of substance. Run from this professor. Grading inconsistent. Forum questions are not masters level. This course will not provide you with an in depth review of global business practices. I truly don't understand why the professor is teaching this subject.

Dr. Chambers makes sure you follow the writing rules for her class. The problem is that she doesn't follow them herself. She expects you to use templates that she provides for her papers. All too often, these templates have grammatical and/or spelling errors that you have to make sure you correct. Read instructions carefully and you'll do fine.

Very tough grader. More interested in the proper structure of a sentence than actually learning about the business content. Her feedback was links to youtube videos. Easily the worst teach I have had at APUS/AMU. Assumes that all students have a background in business.

Extremely disappointed with the class and the professor. Avoid at all costs. AMU/APUS should do an audit for how this course is conducted. Course content is substandard. I don't believe this professor has enough of a business background to teach the basics. Do yourself a favor and try a different prof.

Each week a lot of case study reading and answering of questions and requires a lot of time. Make sure you read the directions and you should be fine. No specific issues to point out besides a lot of work.

I actually got a good grade. The odd thing is I never bothered to purchase a textbook and in retrospect many of my essays were sound as far as APA formatting was concerned but my knowledge of business was abysmal. I guess one good thing is the grades are primarily based on format. I can't help but think knowledge of the subject in not required.

I received a 0 for my first forum and she said that I posted it but it didn't show up. By the time I received the grade we were on week 2 and was unable to view the forum so that I could even verify she was correct. She said it was my responsibility to make sure it worked correctly and to "carry on." Withdrew from class immediately to save my gpa.

Tough grader, takes points off without explaining, format was more important than content of papers. weekly forums & papers due. Having a portfolio project part and a mid-term due on the same weekend, not realistic. portfolio project very time consuming, professor not helpful.

This was by far the worst class and professor throuhout my undergraduate and graduate classes. The professor was more worried about sentence structure than content. I would definately stay away from this class if you could help it.

Provides no feedback from quizzes or tests you are unable to see where you went wrong. 13 quizzes and 2 tests. If you have problems with McGraw-hill connect do not take this course. Problems with connect it is your problem and the school does not help you. If you are capable of teaching yourself this is the class for you.

I received an 'A' but this is the worst professor by far that I have had at APU. The majority of studying for this class is spent researching online & watching YouTube. Dr. Chamber's primary focus is essay format - not the content. She will not address problems. I'm going to do you a solid & say stay away from this prof.

She follows what she wants when grading, if you do not have the appropriate answers, she will fail you. She never responds to anyone she will ask something and not care what you have to say

All you need are forums, everything else is done via connect. Her feedback is helpful, makes you look things at a realistic scope, grading is quick, and content is interesting. She always posts helpful videos and articles to spike your interest even further. I think she is great and would recommend to anyone.

I really enjoyed this instructor. Be sure to participate and there are a lot of assignments but nothing is too extremely hard just be sure to use the text book and you will be fine. Paper due during Week 7 or 8. Most short quizzes or assignments with multiple choice and Midterm and Final also multiple choice. I would take this instructor again.

Run from this prof. Class content and forum questions were substandard. She expected me to use a template that she had a grammatical error in; and then she lowered my grade for her grammatical error! When I asked a question (even a 'yes' or 'no' one) she avoided giving an answer and instead skated around it. Worst prof I've taken at APU.

HORRIBLE TEACHER. Don't expect a good grade with her. Read her many reviews. Other professors would be A to A+ work, but barely getting by. She is condescending, inconsistent, instructions are vague, &amp; passive-aggressive comments prove she doesn't care about students. And dare you do not call her Dr., you'll get marked down. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS!!

Lots of homework
So many papers

Class dynamic was very smooth. Final essay was mentioned at the very start of class giving everyone plenty time to select the correct subject. She is willing to work with you on late assignments with reason. Highly recommend.
