104LC . Boscagli M 4 Days Ago

no slides, extremely lecture heavy. assigned readings every week and need to read many full books but what she discusses in lecture is most important. at the same time, lecture put me to sleep. 1 midterm 1 final and 1 essay. also heavy on poetry. if you can, find another literature credit class. a hard A to get.

I was super worried about this class and almost dropped it, but I'm so glad I didn't. It can take some time to get used to the lack of slides in addition to the strong accent, but it's not too bad. Go to lecture, read (the texts are amazing), and MAKE A STUDY GROUP!!!!!!! Seriously! Sharing notes and studying together will be a lifesaver

Nowhere to submit assignments on Canvas, so don't forget to email them to her at a random, unclear due date.

Graded by final paper, final, and midterm. So much reading + the no lectures slides + only verbal lecture + thick accent + no canvas posts is a deadly combo if you're not very English-minded. I suggest you go to the lecture even though it isn't mandatory because most of the information/terms/prompts on the exams will come from there.

Lectures are ok but what makes her class so infuriating is that there is zero online correspondence. The responses everyone does are on different days and she only tells you your assigned days once at the beginning of the quarter. Idk why she doesn't use Canvas for an online class but it makes the class much less enjoyable.
