CollegeThere 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!!
The professor reads of the powerpoint slides and is usually on topic. There is a lot a group project homework so it will depend on your group partners to do well in the class. She is reasonable about turning in some late work but would recommend not to try it, Lots of articles to read so be ready and she does have a strong accent but understandable
part 1: WORST lecturer I've ever taken at this uni. She has constantly referred to Black people as "Blacks" even though she has a lecture on the importance of language. I also noticed how every time a POC participated in class, she always questions their answers but when a White person speaks about inequalities she praises those students.
my answer HELL NO! every week have stupid group work, 2 pages at least, and make you to make your own podcast. This is very useless class unless you take it for graduation credit, you can learn nothing from this class. She just read the powerpoint. And she always think you don't come to class even you come and she will drop you!!
Can’t stress enough how good this class is!! Not a ton of work, it has a clear format every week. Lots of group work but I didn’t mind it because we fell into a routine. The professor is nice and her lectures and interesting. The readings aren’t really necessary except for the final paper
