This workshop is a graduate student driven initiative to foster critical research on theories of media and techniques in the wake of postcolonial & environmental humanities. By resituating/restructuring theories of media and techniques in the context of postcolonial and environmental humanities, it pursues two goals: 1. to discuss the potentials and shortcomings of existing theoretical frameworks of media and techniques in the context of postcolonial and environmental humanities research projects in order to sharpen the theoretical framework, and 2. to foster future graduate and faculty collaborations across departments and programs at the intersection of media theory, postcolonial, and environmental studies.

Honestly I was quite lost throughout this class; however, the criteria is very straightforward. The reading is heavy and confusing, but her lectures are pretty clarifying. The professor essentially tells you the exact questions that will be on the midterm/ final and she offers guidance on your paper if you seek it. An easy A if you put in effort.

Amazing class. One final and one midterm that she pretty much gives you the questions for. One final paper. Easy A and great teacher

At least two readings every week that are pretty dense but she'll try to break them down during lecture! The topics she presented throughout the course were kind of hard to understand but if you ever expressed confusion she would do her best to explain! Her midterm and final exam are very easy. One final essay as well (not too difficult).

She's nice but her lectures are very confusing - especially at the start. The language barrier does not help either. If you ask questions, she will answer and - she does want you to succeed, but the texts are difficult. The midterms and finals are ridiculously easy though. Final paper is very vague in instructions and much more difficult.

Class was confusing but professor is super kind. She genuinely cares about students and will give you good feedback if you ask her for help. There were def times when the readings/assignments confused me... but she was helpful during office hours.

There is weekly homework, but it is graded on a turn in/not turn in basis so do not worry about the amount! It is pretty confusing but grading is designed for everyone to do well. Not like other CLIT classes, attendance is mandatory, but she is pretty interesting. This class is meant to be confusing and it is!
