Reviews of professor Heather Blackmore

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
She knows her stuff, has a nice choice of films. Provides alot of extra credit I mean ALOT. However she is so unorganized, shes a mess, and never ever responds to emails. Shes a little tough, very dry. Doesnt show she cares about her students. You will get a good grade in this class and watch some amazing films. She does NOT go by the syllabus.

You watch a movie everyday, sounds fun? Wrong, most of the film content is entertaining but you really have to pay attention to detail, like what someone wore through out the film, or what did the train logo say, because it'll be on the test. Blackmore offers minimal to no lecture, which is important to pass the class.

This class was challenging. Professor Blackmore truly cares about the subject and I enjoyed class discussions.

I discovered several films I love in this class. The course was pretty easy if you keep up with the work. I thought the course was well designed for the concepts covered. I did not like the textbook that much.

Pros: knowledgeable Great film content Makes you critically think Cons: lacks organization Takes long to post important assignments on canvas Lots of important work was given last minute *quizzes *essay *study guide Very few assignments graded, making it difficult to estimate your grade average

Really enjoyed the class. Met with me outside of class and gave excellent feedback on my major and scholarships. We watched great films.

The class isn't hard, though the blog posts take up lots of time. She is SO disorganized and won't give info or feedback to help you do well. The syllabus and assignment rollout was a mess. AVOID if you are a serious student. I prefer a teacher who cares about our education, not one who throws tons of Extra credit at us. Hope this rating helps

Lots of EC. If you visit her for office hours NOT at the last minute she can be a huge help with assignments. Overall great class, excellent film selection, blog post portion of the class needs stricter criteria, most classmates responses were poorly thought out with many grammatical and spelling errors. College isnt a charity, earn the grade.

I had a v. negative experience with Prof Blackmore and would not take her again. She is not attentive or professional with students, nothing was organized and help & feedback never came in a timely fashion. In fact I'd say my grade needlessly suffered because i had no way of assessing how I was doing through the course.

I liked this professor, if you want to pass with an A ,she is THE ONE. Watching movies is fun and I got to learn more about Hollywood. If it weren't for her care for her students, I would not have passed. She gave excessive extra credit! However, I really did not like having to post on the blog.
