CollegeI took Raymond for 108C online during fall 20. Lecture are all async, and they aren't necessary to watch for the class, but I would recommend them anyway because she is super knowledgable and presents super interesting material. Graded on a long project with multiple parts, she gives extremely specific instructions. Readings were mostly interesting
She offers extra credit but she doesn't even give you a rubric for it. Better yet, the point value in comparison to the work required to do the extra credit makes doing it not even worth it. You're not even guaranteed full credit if you do the extra credit too. i.e 10-12 pages work for about 10 pt extra credit max but not even guaranteed.
There aren't any words I can describe this class, I extremely love this class, wish I could take her for my entire UCSB year, even know I have struggles regarding the environment, identity, registration but from her class, I feel passion, relatable, kind, and love if you just talk with her, she will always answer and solve a problem that you have.
Took SOC185C with her which was more heavy with work compared to previous classes I've taken with her. Weekly quizzes and discussion posts, one presentation, and a group final project. Definitely manageable, but DON'T FALL BEHIND!!
