Collegelove professor
Professor Saldivar is a very wise woman. While I did find myself getting bored often (she would have students come up and present for over half the almost 3-hour class), when she did get up and speak, she had very quality input. Assignments were easy, you just had to DO them and the readings. Easy work, but attendance was mandatory!
great professor and class
Professor showed up 15 minutes late to class, took out an orange ball and had us toss it around the room and introduce ourselves. The class was hectic. She said that her class on research was all about multitasking. Even though multitasking as a concept has been disproven by research. Her teaching style was too unstructured for me, personally.
Dr. Saldivar is an amazing professor. I have taken a few of her anthropology courses. She is very knowledgable and inspiring. She is one of the best and kindest professors at UCSB. I highly recommend taking her courses. They are very interesting and really open up your perspective on various topics from pedagogy to cultural anthropology topics.
This class was super easy and the professor is so sweet. I would recommend taking her course because homework is light and no exams, just a presentation and short final paper. She accepts late work and all you really have to do to get an A is not miss too many assignments. Assignment criteria is not always clear, but require minimal effort for an A
