    BLST1 . Lyons C D 5 Months Ago

    I've taken 3 classes with her. Her classes are always super interesting. She does weekly quiz for attendance its just a code that she puts in the slides(easy to have a friend give). She also doesnt mind if you dont attend class just email. She does blue book midterm and final. She goes over in slides/lecture. Also weekly discussion post.

    This was one of my favorite classes I've taken at UCSB so far. Dr. Lyons is well respected, but also so kind and wants everyone to learn. You learn a lot in this class and she is very good at keeping everyone engaged. There are weekly quizzes and bi-weekly discussion posts (only 2 paragraphs) and 2 tests. Attendance is a big factor. Highly rec!!!
