ASAM8 . 1 Year, 13 Days Ago

AsAm8 with Professor Cho was my favorite class I've taken yet. Definitley attend lecture because the slides aren't posted online but lecture is never boring. Quizzes are easy as long as you do the readings. Study guides are given for midterm and final but study beyond that as well. Would def take the class again!

Professor Cho is a really good lecturer! The readings are usually short and if you just skim them you'll know enough to write the discussion posts. If you want to do good on the weekly quizzes definitely go to lecture. The content is also interesting and he tries his best to make it relevant to students.

Cho is an awesome person and really cares about his students. The small class size meant that students often had the space and time to discuss and debate. The assignments consist of weekly discussion board posts and readings, as well as two essays and participation. The workload and assignments were very easy and the class was a breath of fresh air
