Winter 2017 - This class is a joke. You basically teach yourself from his online articles he posts to his class website. He goes over the same articles in class and may not even get to them. Peterson is always off topic and going to class is a waste of time but participation is 20% of your grade even though he never takes attendance. The entire class is based on coming up with a product to sell and pitching the idea to investors or a team but he is super vague on everything he wants and going to his office hours is not even worth it or any way helpful. He expects a lot from this project which takes the entire semester but he does not explain anything well at all, so you basically have to figure it out on your own. The project is over 50% of your grade and he is not helpful at all. He also grades super harshly compared to the actual information and help he gives you. Take this class if you are serious about being an entrepreneur and have an actual idea you want to pursue, if not then don't even waste your time. This class is not worth taking if you need a communication practicum course!
