CollegeI enjoyed taking this class in S22! I always looked forward to coming to lectures. Grading consisted of a topic video project (15%), two writing assignments (15% ea.), a midterm (20%), and a group research project (35%). You worked on the group project throughout the quarter so it wasn't difficult. I would recommend this class & professor!
Prof Gibbs is a very caring and intelligent lady. The lectures are engaging and inspiring. Papers and tests are graded generously as long as you work. Easy A!
I think Gibbs is a great professor, you can tell she's extremely intelligent and passionate about the material. I had more issues with the structure of the class, unfortunately, too much of the grade was centered around a group project which really sucks if you get stuck with a lazy group. I also wish the paper prompts were less vague.
The best professor in the Comm department!!!!!!!!!!!! Very caring and her lectures are very clear and full of interesting content.
