Horrible class. All she does is talk about what you were supposed to have read in the text book. Super unlcear of what she expects on assignments and never gives any feedback

Comment:
She doesn't have a criteria on her acorn, it's just a general outline and she grades un-reasonability hard. Taking this course is awful as a first year. She slowly over explains everything about 3 times to pass time and treats us like were in the 5th grade. Your every micro expression in the class will get judged and will prob reflect your grade.

Talks very briefly about what we need to know for the class. Gives horrible guidelines. Do everything she says to do and finish with a C, good luck.

I would not recommend Kendra Carmichael. She is vague and does not support students like other profs do. Classes were hard to sit through and the marking was so picky it wasn't even fair. Top it all off with a group project that's worth 20% of your mark where you get the exact same as all other members. AVOID

Kendra is the most ironic communications professor you could ask for. In what she lacks in commuting the expectations for projects/assignments, she makes up in always wearing a smile.

Awful teacher, does not have any empathy for student performance. Overload on untestable information and minimal feedback on work and group presentation.

One of the hardest markers I've had. She's horrible for feedback, will not tell you when she see's you doing something the wrong way, so that you continue to screw up. Don't even get me started about emailing her, you have to be so specific and formal or she refuses to answer. Drop her class as soon as you see it, trust me! Shes Acadias worst prof!

Comment:
The lectures she gives are incredibly boring and you are required to do an exceptional amount of reading and then talk about what you read in class or else you could face a steep penalty in your participation grade. The information presented was 90% useless filler material that I will never use.

I had worked terribly hard for just a D but she seems to overlook hard work. When I went to talk to her she didn't even seem to know what I was doing wrong so I blew up in her face. Lets just say I finally pulled it together at the end of the semester by letting her quelch all over my face.

I think she's great. The problem she has with a lot of students is that people really want a course called 'Communications 1' to be a joke. She actually has standards. The midterm is going to be more difficult than you think, so actually read the textbook. You'll get out of this class what you put in.

A lot of people do not like Kendra. However, I found that if you participated every class and made the best of bad grades she came through in the end. Though at times it seemed like she was just out to get the students, by going to her office hours frequently and showing her that you're trying she eases up on grading you significantly. GO SEE HER.

Comment:
Professor Carmichael seemed like a great instructor on the first day of class but quickly turned into my worst nightmare in my first year of University. Battling to keep my scholarship, she destroyed any hope I had left. She blindsided our group on what we thought was a 90+ presentation. She is terribly unclear and won't explain what we did wrong.
