re: LSUS Online MBA Reviews

kikicub,

I'll chime in on your question regarding ISDS 705 and Lind even though I have two weeks left to go.

I signed up thinking Lind and Lin were/was the same person, yup, didn't catch the d at the end of the name.

So far? Poor class. I have learned very litte, the course work is nonsensical by form of a group project, quizzes, exams and forums.

The group project manual and grading sheets had Darban's name on it until she changed it a few weeks in so I can assume Darban requires a group project as well.

Group project is a nuissance and will depend on your 5 - 8 other team mates' effort. This requires your group to actually make contact with a company, interview them, conduct weekly VTC's with your team, and colloboration on both a written project 20 pages long AND a 15-20 min oral presentation accompanied with graphics. This eats up most of the time required for the course which or me has been roughly 3 - 4 hours a week on top of the other course work.

The quizzes are not challenging, the reading is out of date (2014) for a technical class, so thus far, I feel the class is a waste, albeit a requirement.

The professor is non-existent and the advisors who grade do not stick to the rubrics thus far. I look forward to ending this course and will avoid Prof. Lind's classes in the future.

Hope this helps.
