I have been teaching this course for a number of years and work my hardest to make it an enjoyable, interactive experience. I expect you to treat this course like a job where I am your supervisor. We will work together to prepare you to be a better supervisor and a better employee.
The assignments and quizzes are based on the book, and I add my own personal experience to lectures and activities. Discussion boards are based in the book, lecture, activities, videos, and other classmates. I teach in a multi-modal style.
