Overall, a great, knowledgeable professor. Very clear grading criteria. Attendance is mandatory. Lectures are interesting, and readings are very supplemental to the in-class material. Very organized class structure.

She is the hardest grading teacher I have had at UCSB. TAs will grade something, then she regrades it with a lower grade with no explanation. She tests on specifics, rather than concepts, which is reflected in her lectures, which are not interesting or engaging. She is not a bad teacher necessarily, but she is just not good at explaining things.

she's an awesome prof! super knowledgeable and passionate about the subject! tests are all fine cause they're online. your TA makes/breaks your grade, not her.

Such jokes. There's a clear disconnect from the TAs and professor as things get graded by the TAs, then get regraded by the professor oftentimes dropping your initial grade by 10-20%. A lot of us also got cooked as the modules had to be redone due to unclear instructions. On top of it, the class is just boring. Midterm and final online though, lol.

I love this Queen! She instructs her students with conviction and power. She is concise with her teaching. Everything she says has purpose and always leads to her next part of the lesson so smoothly. She is funny and witty. Overall, an Amazing professor, and I feel fortunate to have been able to take two of her courses, this being one of them.

Do NOT take this class like seriously seriously seriously. This class was the most frustrating class I have ever taken in my years at UCSB. Made me want to drop out. The grading criteria is so inconsistent and the class is a mess.
