JAP181 . 11 Years Ago

Excellent teacher, just very hands-off. Class was mostly reviewing homework and the content was almost all self-study. She let us know exactly what she expected on the tests. No complaints.

Lectures were unorganized and extremely difficult to follow.

sweet teacher and passionate about eacs !! however, for a ge, there was a quiz every lecture and a 10 page paper due right before the final. midterm and final were graded pretty harshly and you needed to remember basically everything and everyone you learned about.

Lots of reading (several books+reader that was put on reserve). She puts up slides online after each lecture, though the lectures go deeper. Papers are based off of reading and prompts are simple, so you don't need lecture. Final is based off of primary reading sources, so secondary sources aren't important. Easy A if you do most of the reading.
