I enjoyed this class. Professor Suarez comes to class with a lot of energy and makes an effort for things to be fun and interactive in a very unique way. My only complaint is that the assignments for the class were very vague and confusing and sometimes the TAs grading wasn't the most clear. But for the most part this class was enjoyable, stress free, and an interesting was to learn about product design.

I really enjoyed Professor Suarez's class. I know the reviews are mixed by his class is actually so fun. Every class that you go to is a new activity. It is super engaging and you will definetly make some friends in this class. There are no exams and nothing to study for. The only thing is, because there are few grades/assignments, you cannot be thoughtless about it. It's an easy A, IF you actually try and be creative on some of the projects.

idk how this man is bs-ing his way into staying a professor. was one of the worst classes, if not the worst, that I have taken at the business school. lectures were boring unless you're interested in learning about his life. I enjoyed a single reading we did (lencioni's 5 dysfunctions of a team) and bonding with the classmates who I complained to. nothing else.

What I gained from this class: nothing What I lost because of this class: My 4.0 GPA and 3 hrs of my Mondays every week The class is based off of 5 quizzes and one final group project which is graded SO HARSH. There are no possibilities to earn points back and only a total of 125 points in the semester making it impossible to end with a good grade. Do not take this class if you want to save your GPA!!

The grade data for this class is OLD and incorrect. The class USED TO be easy. Its not anymore. He updated it and its a good amount of work. You will struggle to get an A in this class. The quizzes, which are a large portion of your grade, are hard and basically nobody knows the answer to them. He gave nobody an A on the final project with is worth a big chunk of your grade. The average for the final project was a C+. This guy has changed the class and made it significantly harder. I do not suggest taking it and I am a CS major who ended with an A in most of my cs classes and could not end with an A in this class. I struggled for that B-.

This dude is nice but this class is so bad. I took it thinking it’ll be an easy A gened but it’s really not. I’m saying this as a CS major. I got an A in CMSC351 but a B- in this class. The quizzes are so hard and everyone fails them. Those are worth like half the points for the class. He grades harshly on the final project and the high on canvas for the final was a 85% and the average was a 75%. The class used to be really easy, so the grade data is incorrect. He patched it so the class is actually a real class now. I would recommend taking some other gened. This guy is a troll. He refused to bump me 0.14%. GPA gone because of him. NOT AN EASY CLASS. GRADE DATA IS OLD AND INCORRECT

Honestly the class is great for knocking out Gen Eds, but besides that I wouldn't take it. The class itself isn't horrible, and Professor Suarez is pretty great! However, there is not a lot of structure to the class and lots of expectations of group work. To get a good grade in the class, all you need to do is complete the assignments. But, remember to study for the quizzes since they are really specific and can knock off a bunch of points

Professor Saurez can be a very nice person and tries to keep his class entertained because of the length of the class and how he wants to integrate key points of innovation within you. The quizzes are very easy as they are matching so you just need to memorize them. The blogs are really easy, and the other assignments aren't too bad. However, the worst part about this class is the group work. Over time, there's this environment that's built within this class that makes students feel that they don't need to show up to class because they feel Professor Saurez isn't going to talk about anything important. It's important in retrospect but not showing up to class won't directly impact one's grade. At the very end of the semester for the final project, this behavior escalates to the point where if you have a bad group, you're basically screwed. It's not completely his fault because the learning in this class isn't conventional as well as it is held once a week, but I do still think that Professor Saurez is still somewhat responsible for creating an environment where many people think it's okay to skip class and let the rest of their group members pick up their slack.

In class professor Suarez is a very fun and engaging professor. His class is very easy and is very based on group work and class participation. His TA on the other time can be a little ridiculous with how harsh she grades blog assignments. The quizzes can also be a little annoying because oftentimes the study guide is given out via MURAL which in my opinion is a clunky and annoying system to work with. Be prepared to use MURAL a lot because it's almost always connected to the work in and out of class and make sure to follow the work guidelines to a tee and you should have no problems with this class.

I love Professor Suarez!!! He's engaging and fun and HONR258E is a really great course that encourages you to think about things in a different way than you usually would. I was a little worried about this class since it sounded like it would be a lot of work, but it's really manageable and a great class overall. Take him!!

Dr. Suarez is a very passionate professor, and it's a good course, but be prepared for a lot of group work.

Incredible professor and a great guy. His style of teaching is very unique but I've found it immensely valuable. You will be challenged but you will also learn a lot. Don't expect an easy A - it sounds cliche but this is truly a course where you get what you put in, and Professor Suarez can tell if you're not really trying. Highly recommend
