ED125 . Duque J D 3 Months Ago

The best professor I ever had at UCSB. He cares deeply about his students and for the subjects he teaches. Some people were uncomfortable with his lecture style because he does play "devil's advocate" a lot but this is because he wants you to think critically. Attendance was mandatory but so interesting and inspirational if you care about it.

GOAT. Such an inspiring person who makes it obvious that he genuinely loves what he does. Made an effort to get to know and interact with us, and structured his lectures in a way that always felt safe and inviting to new perspectives. Lots of short HW assignments throughout the week, but graded off completion + 1final project. He is the best :)

Honestly the best professor I have ever had. Mr.Duque is truly passionate about what he teaches and it really shows during his lectures. Only 9:30am I have been excited to attend. I learned a lot and developed a new passion for education. Grading is super clear and easy, no midterm or final. Short assignments that take 2hrs a week. LOVE HIM!

Jason is the best professor I've ever had. Yes, there is a lot of busy work but it's easily doable. He is the most inspirational person I have met and I love how he makes our class think critically. This is the only professor that I have met who does truly not take sides, usually, you can tell but not with him. I cannot recommend him enough!!!

A lot of busywork with tight due dates (assignments due Tues/Thurs/Sat/Sun, activity Fri). Try to get as much done as possible, it takes ~3-6 hrs total. The work isn't difficult and isn't graded too harshly. There were a few technical issues and the professor does not respond to student emails, so email the TAs instead.

ED150 . Duque J D 1 Year, 3 Months Ago

Professor Duque is an amazing teacher who really cares about his students. ED 150 is a fun class to take. We explored what makes a good teacher/what does good teaching look like, as well as sticky problems you find while teaching. Prof is energetic and connects with students. Work is easy and grading as well. No final or midterm for us.
