Reviews of professor Seyram Avle

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
The class is tough. There's weekly readings, and you will need to write a 300 word response every single week. The grading is brutal. I never once got full marks on any of my assignments. There is a midterm paper, and a final group project. But if you take the time to really absorb and understand what's being taught, you'll be fine.

Seyram is a great professor and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone interested in communication. Weekly readings and 250 word response papers were not bad at all. She is very knowledgeable and encourages in class discussion. Very supportive with final research paper. 100% would take again!

Passionate about communication topics in global media but doesnt provide any quizzes or tests or homeworks about the lecture, however she still takes attendance. Lots of extra credit opportunities, if you win in class debates which you wont because its a 50/50 chance and theres two of them.

Don't take this class if you hate reading. Every week we have to read two readings that are about 40 pages long but they are sooo heavy and hard to understand and you have to write 300-400 words reflecting what you read. I dread it. She's also very strict with grading and isn't very flexible. I don't recommend this class, I wish I never took it.
