I was definitely intimidated going into this class bc I knew it was only a midterm and a final and he would lecture for 3 hours, but it actually was not bad at all. His lectures are easy to follow along and his tests are pretty easy as long as you know the material. I would say you don't NEED the book bc he goes over most of what you need to know.

Taking the word lecture to the literal meaning, he sits and he talks. There are no online notes or any notes of any kind, you have to write your own. One three-hour lecture a week that goes over basically the same thing but with different perspectives makes this an easy class if you can understand the underlying messages.

His exams are the type where multiple of the answer choices may be the correct choice. Many of the Qs are from his textbook, basically what he lectures, and they're very specific. More of a philosophical approach merged with studies.

Klein doesn't use any lecture slides, so you have to go to class and listen to what he says and just write it all down. I was nervous about this at first but it wasn't bad AT ALL. The class was 40% midterm and 60% final, both MC exams. Mix of material from lecture and from the textbook. If you just study, exams are really straightforward. LOVE HIM!

He is an intelligent man who knows every answer to your question. There are no recorded lectures but if you attend his lectures, you will learn the material just fine. The class consists of only one midterm and final. He was very understanding about the situation regarding the strike.

Klein genuinely cares so much about his students. He prepares us to be intelligent consumers of information. He emphasizes questioning the information that we are given and encourages us to challenge things we don't agree with. I found myself looking forward to attending lectures, and the lack of technology used in the course was very refreshing.
