Collegetaken multiple classes with this prof, the last thing he wants is for you to fail the class. Extremely clear on what he expects on his papers so follow the rubric and you should get a near perfect score. lectures are just slides that he reads off of but they're also posted online
gradebook is very minimal, graded off two papers, two quizzes, and the final, all of which have a hefty weight. attendance is not mandatory, but some films we watch in class are featured on the quizzes so i would reccomend going anyway. very sweet, don't be afraid to ask questions, i only wish the papers' grading criteria were clearer
He is literally the sweatiest! The class was pretty easy he didn't give a lot of assignments and they were all pretty straightforward (mainly common sense). No need to do the readings cause he explains everything you need to know during lectures. His lectures are organized, and he always posts the slides. He is also very responsive and flexible.
Not a difficult class. Lecture slides were dense but basically everything you need is in there and I didn't really do the readings but still did well on tests. My TA was not harsh so class went by easily. Just make sure you refresh on key terms before tests and you should be good.
