Reviews of professor Kyle Caler

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I don't usually go out of my way to leave reviews online, especially negative ones, but I'd feel irresponsible if I didnt warn students about Dr. Caler. This prof is so clearly looking for acceptance and friends that it gets in the way of course material. I don;t know whats up with him, but I felt very uncomfortable around him. Grading is fine, but

My favorite teacher! His class is easy, he's very flexible, quizzes aren't too hard and cover everything we discussed, a few case studies but not a tough grader whatsoever, he keeps us involved during lectures and has breakout groups. He also plays the ukulele which is awesome. We have a book but I really didn't use it at all and still did well.

Got an A, didn't learn much, so theres that.. Talked to professor Caler outside of class and did not get the feeling he enjoys teaching. Ive got 65 units in SWK; looking forward to finishing

I took him for both 125A & B, we had discussion posts every week and had to reply to two peers. 5 quizzes of 10 questions super easy!! 2 papers one of 4 pages and the other of 6 pages, he is lenient if you do not do the fully 4 or 6. He does breakout rooms to discuss the lecture. I had him for 2 hours and 50 minutes but would always finish early.

Easy grader 4 regular assignments but when it came to the final, preparation bad. Throughout the semester it was clear the class was not understanding the many theories piled on us, yet he moves on. Exam study guide was LOADED yet there was only 30qs on it. Class expressed so much stress+confusion 4 the exambut he didnt do anything. Good luck yall

The information is a lot, but he doesn't expect too much from you. There isn't a lot of work but we do work in groups often. The lectures are really heavy but he posts the slides so you can look back if you need to. Overall really nice and pretty easy so I will be taking him again.

He is a good, friendly, knowledgeable professor. The class is pretty straight forward. Lectures using a powerpoint that is also available on Canvas, he asks that you read the chapter which isn't really necessary, gives a weekly assignment on a discussion board. I will say the podcasts he assigns us to listen to are really interesting and enjoyable!

In order to pass the class you need to read the textbook. He is accessible if you have any questions. The final was easier than expected. Do all the work and attend class and you will pass.

Took him for 235A and 235B. He lectures the whole class and the content is a little boring. He bring his ukulele and plays songs. Has easy weekly discussions and 2-3 essays and a presentation. Easy grader
