The comments before are lame. This teacher is cool. Gets confussing at times but overall very intersting. All you need to do for the class is listen and take notes of his lectures and then you will pass the test with a good grade.

This class was, ahem, different. As far as the class, if you study and put a little effort into the class, you'll do fine. His/Her class is a break from the boring norm. If you get offended easily do not take him/her. He/She is a very pessismitic person but he/she is intelligent despite his ADD tangent. I would take him again.

The best professor I've had thus far in my college career. Don't be discouraged by her personal choices! If anything, you get a much different perspective on humanities than you would in any other class. Tests are based on notes, so take good ones and you'll be fine!

Humanities 101. Also taking his/her Humanities 102. Super good teacher if you don't mind hilarity. Extremely knowledgeable about everything in and out of the text. Isn't afraid to speak out about his/her opinions, which keeps the class pretty interesting. STUDY!! TAKE NOTES ON EVERYTHING HE SAYS ABOUT THE TEXT. ATTEND CLASS! Take notes. Study.

This was a fun class with a teacher that is very opionated, knowlegeable and passionate about the subject. She does take the class of on tangents (mostly related to her view on the mid-east) pretty often. Her exams/quizes often are very detailed so take good notes and read the book carfully.

Very funny. Has quite a pessimestic perspective of the modern world. He/she's almost like a comedian at certain points. Only 2 exams and 3 quiz that determines your grade so don't screw up. Tests are easy; Just fill-in-the-blanks, matchings, and things of that sort.

Easy class, don't let her scare you away. Take good notes, 4 quizzes and 2 exams based on lectures but asks for details. Requires the book for photos of sculptures, architechture etc. Knows the stuff well but soooo opinionated. Very repetitive with her views on religion, half of each class is digressions. If you show up and take notes an easy A.

great professor! take notes, go to class and pay attention. she's very opinionated so it keeps the class from getting to the boring side.

He/She is a shocker the first day, but you get used to her. She is extremely familiar with what she teaches and expects her students to know their facts. She will call you out if you don't so be prepaired and youll do fine. Tests are no notes, no books. So its lots of names, dates momorization. She keeps it interteresting, you will not fall asleep!

I'll admit, she's a little nuts, but I've taken all three classes she teaches and I've loved every second of them! She's opinionated and ADD but once you get used to it, she has some pretty awesome stories and knows her stuff. Tests were fairly easy if you followed along in class.

She was a great professor and knew the material off the top off her head. She lived the subject and I appreciated her passion for the subject. She was a bit negative on life but she warned before class so it wasn't toobad.

She is a great teacher. Make sure you come to class and pay attention. There isn't any hw but you have to read the book for the quizzes and tests. She is vocal about her opinions and sometimes talks about her life but she explains things really well and it was very enjoyable.

She is a great teacher. Yes, her tests are a little difficult but if you pay atten and take notes, you will be fine. She is very knowledgeble and very funny. She is also VERY libreal so if you have a prob with that, dont take her.

Good class. Those who are complaining about no extra credit & homework scores...I hope you're not transferring to a university. Most upper division classes DO NOT offer that grade inflating crap, so quit whining, read the freaking book, & get used to actually learning something. To the religious students, it's not her fault you've been brainwashed.

100% Lecture class. Grade is based on tests. no homework. it's a funny class. if you are good at taking notes and listen well, it's an easy A. Carrie is definitely unique. the personality definitely helps you remember the material.

At first I didn't like her class but now I actually enjoy it. She's far from ordinary, you can tell she has a passion for what she does. If your considering taking this class, be prepared to take good notes and read the chapter. Know all details and you'll do good. If you take this class, believe me you'll never forget her class :)

This teacher is actually really cool. If you don't mind being taught by a **** than you'll love him/her. Not in that way of course... but "it" is actually pretty damn smart, a lot smarter then it looks. yeah... So, basically a lot of teachers don't teach you anything but this teacher will teach you a lot as long as you pay attention.8/10

Extremely cynical; liked her right off the bat.Carrier knows what she's talking about, although sometimes she can veer slightly off topic (still related, yet not entirely test material). Her personality is what makes the class interesting. You definitely have to know how to take notes, but then again, that should be a prereq to college anyways.

Very interesting lectures, although the professor has some annoying but minor tendencies.

Professor is very, very knowledgeable and you will learn a lot by taking a class of her's. She is very easily distracted and can be somewhat odd and annoying at times, definitely eccentric. Conspiracy nut also believes a lot of what she sees on local tv and radio, makes a lot of stuff up too, but that doesn't really affect the material.

Read all the ratings on this teacher and I decided to take this class anyway. basically you have to get used to the way he/she looks.other than that she is very opinionated and everyday is interesting. the quizzes are fill in the blank. you have to come to class because she tells you what to study and goes over it in detail.

I don't really understand why some people find this course hard. This is the first class I took in the US and I got an A. I found her entertaining and, yes, she can be offensive at times so if you're sensitive, be prepared.

I honestly thought her class was easy, if you attend most of the lectures. The only need for the book is towards the quotes of plays and stories, for her lectures back up most of the material. I thot being offensive was fine b/c she takes stabs at everyone & I mean everyone, so it kind of eases the negativity. She gives great insight too! (:

2nd class w/her. 2 exams, 3quizzes. no ec. classes not hard, but you do need to study, show up for every class, take notes. used the book a lot. class was never boring. pay attention to test questions- some of them repeat in same test. fun class!

Prof. Carrier is an interesting professor. I looked forward to her class because of the lectures and her humor. Pay attention and take good notes. This class requires hard work to get a good grade.

This class scared the crap out of me at the beginning, but it is not too hard, if you study enough. She is a really good teacher and has a passion for the subject. She goes of topic sometimes though.

Not as bad as everyone says she is. Three 10 point fill-in-the-blank quizzes, 40 point true/false+matching+fill in+multiple choice midterm, 20 point short essay midterm, and 60 point final (same format as midterm). Take good notes and you'll only need the book for quotes. Pick 4 out of 6 prompts for short essay. Gives good advice for traveling.

Awesome professor. She really knows her stuff and she finds the most entertaining and interesting way to discuss the lecture. I don't know what some people are complaining about but this class was super easy. Plus, the hours go by so fast. Fun teacher, love her humor.

She is subjective and offensive, but it won't affect your grade. She isn't a bad teacher at all and she knows her stuff very well. Recommend for people who wouldn't mind being offended by inferior jokes and you will learn a lot of material after finishing her class.

She's a great professor; very intelligent and has great wisdom. She knows how to keep a boring subject entertaining and time flies in her class. She's one of my favorites at Miramar. You should take her before she retires. I love her lectures so much I am thinking of dropping by sometimes just to listen.

Funny Professor. She has been to nearly everywhere in the book. I got an A in the class, hardest A I've had to earn. Tests are based off the lecture, pretty impossible to study for b/c the ?'s are based on what she is thinking about. You litterly have to KNOW everything in the book b/c there is no study guide. NEED 4 hrs study time per chapter.

This was by far the easiest class I have taken. The instructor is upfront about what she expects and how she is, she does not hide how she is from day one. Basically, professor Carrier tests on solely on her lectures. So consistently taking notes is a good idea. She recommended to record her lectures which helps for the essay portion of the exams.

I actually learned a lot in this class, this teacher is not for everyone though, especially those who get offended lightly as this teacher has no filter whatsoever. If you want to do well; show up for class and study for the quizzes/test it's not that hard. No written papers or crazy projects, very straight forward.

You'll either love her or hate her. Personally, I loved her. She was a refreshing change from stick in the mud professors. Attend the classes and takes notes and you should have no problems getting an easy A. Skip classes or tune out during class then you'll be riding the B or C train.

Good professor but not for everyone. Banged on ALL religions, not just Muslims, as some may suggest. Take good notes, him /her talks fast. I used a recorder (it's allowed) and studied for about 4 hours for each quiz and midterm/final. I got A's on every assignment. He/she will not test you on anything that is not discussed in class.

This professor is amazing. She will make you think about your lifelong beliefs in a different way. She is very difficult for tests so I definitely suggest perfect attendance and note taking skills.

The professor makes lectures quite interesting and rarely misses class. Testing materials in the class for the quizzes, midterm and final are pretty tricky bc they are no where to be found in the book itself but invest in a recorder and record the lectures and you will do fine. The professor testing materials are based only on lectures in class and you will often find that she talks much about her trips with no relations to the materials covered in lecture class. That's the frustrating part!

Carrier is knows the material she/he is teaching and can answer all question pertaining to the course. No homework, 3 quizzes, a midterm and a final. Exams cab be tricky, fill in the blank style. I do not recommend this professor because she/he has an abrasive personality that I personally found to be offensive. I would not take this class again

Amazing instructor. She really knows her stuff and is more than willing to offer help to anyone with questions. She has been teaching for a long time and is great at spotting the lazy students, so don't be one of them. Class made me THINK and instructor challenged my ideals. 102 was the same. Read the book and go to lecture.

Great class! No homework, which is a plus, tests are exactly out of her lectures, which is nice. Syllabus is extremely accurate. Why not take an Easy A class!? I didn't realize how on point my notes would be if I had taken good ones, so TAKE NOTES! Recorders are even better! Plus, she cracked me up the whole class! Great teacher! Learned a lot!

Paula is a great teacher. I adore her personality and sense of humor. Wish all my classes are taught by her. :D

Extremely easy A. Write down whatever she says that actually pertains to that chapter and you'll pass every quiz and test. Her jokes and ramblings gets old quick, but just don't pay attention and you're set. No homework was a plus.

Loved her class! Listen to whatever she lectures and copy it down! Or you can ask to record her sessions, i think. She's very clear on how the test is. Hilarious teacher! I think you wouldn't take any offense if you are openminded and not so into religion. Very interesting class. Lots of travel experience to share and cool stories

Carrier is pretty funny but for some reason only I got her jokes. If you have a sense of humor and get her you will have fun and do well. The tests and quizzes are easy but you have to read the book and takes notes. She will only ask questions that she lectures on so bust out your highligher.

Carrier can be offensive if you take everything seriously. One thing I will say about her is that she has HUGE heart and is a fair grader. She tells you what is on the exam. She literally spells it out. There arent any trick questions. We had 10 ques. quiz the other day. I got 10/10 and the guy next to me got 4/10. The secret is: PAY ATTN in class!

Took her class because I was interested in learning about different religions. Learned a ton, loved her lectures, loved her stories, looked forward to class every week. Got a D. If you can't memorize EVERYTHING she says you aren't passing. She tries too hard to be a mean prof. I respect her knowledge and lecture skills but flying buttress-come on!

Overall good professor. Once you get past her crazy personality she's actually quite funny and extremely knowledgeable. Study and you will do well. Would recommend

She has good sense of humor and is passionate about this course as well other course. Make sure to listen in class and take good notes because what she says in class will be on the quizzes and 2-part exams. First part, will have multiple choice, t/f, matching, fill-in. Second, essay portion on movies, paintings, and so on.

As long as you attend class regularly and study, this will be an easy class to pass.

Took 2 of Prof. C's courses, and enjoyed both. She is my favorite teacher, and I've had a lot of great college teachers. She uses humor and sharp wit in her lectures, and offers excellent insights into the subject as well as the human condition in general. To do well in tests, study in the assigned books only what is mentioned in lectures.

Easy to pass but attendance is a big big plus. My best class this semester

Prof. P. Carrier is very knowledgeable. She knows her stuff extremely well and can answer all questions you might have. Reading the book is a waste of time, just attend EVERY class and pay attention to every little detail she gives because you might be quizzed on it. Only way to pass is to study what she goes over in class. Never gives homework!

She has good sense of humor!! Make sure to listen her lecture (you can record her lecture), and take good notes because what she says in her lecture will be on the quizzes(3 quizzes) and 2-part exams(Midterm and Final). Each quiz has 10 points, and 50 points on mid-term and 50 points on final. You will enjoy her lecture!!!

Carrier is interesting. She's a little crazy but her crazy mannerisms and actions are funny. She cracks jokes that I think are funny, but most don't. You need to write down everything she says, because she will test you on anything that comes out of her mouth, unless she specifies that she isn't. Overall solid. A lot of memorization!

Pros: The only homework you have is to study + READ, she doesn't make the lecture boring by throwing in some jokes and stories, short quizzes, decent tests very straight to the point Cons: In class essays I guess? TIP: QUIZLET FLASH CARDS HELP; In fact, for her 101 class, some nerd even did this quizlet . com class 1536879 (no spaces)

Prof Carrier is a little crazy & weird but her lectures are really interesting. She's very passionate & enthusiastic about her subject. There's 1 mid-term & 1 final, 3 quizzes. RECORD her lectures & take good notes, then MEMORIZE (get the app NOTABILITY) Guarantee you will ace it. I was dreading this class but it turned out great. Take her!

Tests are based only on what she lectures and her lectures are very clear. She gets off-topic sometimes, but she makes it clear that its not part of the lessons. Grade is based only on 100+ points, so every quiztest counts significantly. She is one hilarious teacher, telling students lessons in life and what happens in the real world.

3 (10 pt) quizzes, midterm & final (50 pts each). Total of 130 pts of grade. First 2 quizzes I got 5/10, the midterm I got a 33/50. When it came time to withdraw I considered it, but stuck with the class. I had a D before going into quiz 3 and final. Studied lots & got A on final and quiz 3. No homework or extra credit. if you study, you will pass.

Very well spoken lectures, Need book, either hardcopy or online (so you can look at pictures). She'll make you share with someone if not. No Homework, BUT you have to study lectures notes. Overall, I liked this class. Makes you work. Funny comments, and corny jokes.

The stuff you will learn from her will stay with you for years and rest of your life. Pay attention as I didn't and still find all the info I learned her useful after twenty years. Great teacher, bit funky, but that's characteristic of a good personality.

Adore her, She is unique to say the least and is very clear on her opinions. but your beliefs, likes, or preferences don't phase her in the slightest. She is clear on what to take notes on, and listening to her is as fun and exciting as reading a good book. i am quite fond of her and all of her eccentricness

Easy A. Just listen to the professor and you'll be prepared for the quizzes. Review notes for the midterm and final. Read textbook if your worried over it. This class is easy, because Prof literally tells you what she might test you on; hence, the quizzes, midterm, and finals are based off of her lectures.

Her entire class is lectured based. So by default, you have the parameters of what may be asked on the quizzes/tests. She may go off on tangents, but you should not be in college if you cannot differentiate between what is relevant and what is not. Attendance is a must, but that makes it easy -- what's your priority, to attend or not attend?

You're graded by 3 quizzes, a midterm, and a final. Attendance is crucial for this class, or you could just ask for notes from a friend. She goes off tangent and has a dry sense of humor, but she is incredibly smart and knows what she's talking about. She gets less stringent by the end of the semester. Overall a good professor.

Prof. Carrier was one of my favorite professors at Miramar. Her cynical sense of humor is not for everyone, but to me she's hilarious. She's super intelligent, and knows what she's talking about. Her lectures will stick with you. She's also very kind when you talk to her one on one. 2 Tests, 3 quizzes, that's it! STUDY HARD!!
