The class was pretty interesting but Professor Weber, while a nice guy, is not a good lecturer. One day he spent an hour and 15 minutes on one slide. Most of his lectures aren't very helpful. The tests are pretty hard even though the material is not difficult to understand. Your grade consists of a midterm, final, paper, and debate attendance.

This course is compromised of three grades; a midterm, a final, and a debate paper. He reads off the lecture slides which are also posted on canvas. He's a really nice professor, however the fact that your grade is based off of only three assignments was stressful.

One group project, one solo project, and one test. These are the only items in your grade book. The lectures do go on for a long time, sometimes more than necessary, but all of the material will be on the final exam at the end of the quarter.

This review isn't the most helpful as I dropped the class halfway through (the day before the final deadline). However, Professor Weber has to be the worst teacher I have had at UCSB in my four years here. The lectures are boring and dated. His accent makes it difficult to understand and he goes on tangents like no other. No one pays attention.
