There isn't that much homework, and if there is, it's for you to use in your future papers that you have to write. I only had to write three papers for this class, which isn't a lot but that also means that you have to write them well.

Ms. Carr was an awesome instructor. She is very neutral with assigning porjects and is completely invested into her students. She is HILARIOUS! Makes you feel like you're actually a student, not somebody who pays $$$ to just get the degree. She is very accessible outside of class, likes to use Google Voice/Hangout, Skype, etc...

I took the online course. You get quite a bit of homework every week, but aslong as you are listening to the 5min recordings ur good to go, and its fairly clear what you need to do, and homework isnt too hard to do. She explains pretty well in the recordings but if you still have doubts she responds to messages rather quickly.

Dr. Carr's class this semester was pretty easy going. She provides all the assignments for the semester so you can complete at any time. She does explain each assignment, and provides student examples, but if you are confused just go to the wring and communication center, you get extra credit for going anyway.

In my opinion, I would not take this class again or the professor again. Grading was very harsh and also she was very late to grade things. She doesn't respond until a few days after the assignment. On assignments, she tells us to do one thing and then tells us to do another thing after she grades it. Things need to get fixed

Dr. Carr is a tough grader but she does give feedback and you are able to resubmit assignments. I took her online for COMP1500 and if you need help on an assignment, you have to make sure you ask ahead of time because she takes at least 1-2 days to respond. However, she's overall pretty nice and chill, just stay on top of assignments.
