I joined this class about a week ago, and I already do not like her. She removes the lecture slides from the D2L a week after each lecture, so you have to be active and take notes. Both of her tests are lockdown browser with webcam. She does not want you to succeed. Do not take her.

She doesn't teach, just posts stuff. TAs mark and answer questions. Can't look over the exam before turning it in because answers become locked in the lockdown browser. Taking up space.

AVOID THIS PROFESSOR!!! This was supposed to be an easy credit but half of the class ended up being accused of plagiarism. I had to do a whole court session and all of the 'evidence' I had was deemed irrelevant (literally my google doc history and the physical notes I took from her prerecorded lecture). She's mean, rude and racist!! STAY AWAY!!!

She "teaches" CMN279 fully online, but doesn't mark or interact with her students. I wish I was lying because this doesn't sound believable, but I'm convinced she's doing a legal robbery on TMU for salary. All she does is post pre-recorded videos that dont teach anything, and then has her TA's mark and respond to emails for her. LMAO

Makes the class harder than it needs to be. Requires her overpriced textbook but barely uses it. Constant last-minute changes, unclear videos, and no communication. For an online class, this was a mess. Avoid if you can

CMN279 with carolyn is an online class with no lectures posted. How does that work out? Its honestly laughable how bad of a teacher she is

Shes the only professor who teaches this course. She writes the expensive textbook that is required reading. The course is asynchronous, which is great.... except she doesn't allow you to view the lectures on the weekend? Why? Nobody knows. She swapped our final exam from being open book to being close book and proctored after the course drop date.

Worst professor in all of TMU. she doesnt know how to teach and is finessing the institution into paying her a 100k+ salary for posting terrible prerecorded lectures from COVID lmao. Her videos basically are her going over simple concepts and playing a 10 minute youtube clip. Horrible, absolutely do not reccommend.

She wrote the mandatory textbook needed for this class.... but doesn't supply the only 20 pages we needed from it, the textbook is 110 dollars from the campus store. Thank you to whoever uploaded the free PDF version online.

She changed our final exam to 'closed book 75 mcq in 38 minutes' a MONTH before our finals, and after the drop date. Her lectures are open only during mon-fri, which means no work can be done during the weekend, when students actually have time. She will not provide notes either, just a video. If I could give her 0 stars, I would happily do so.
