Super easy class but lecture can be boring. Graded on weekly writing assignments and attendance. The midterm and final are based on readings/lecture but are super easy as they basically just ask how the content relates to you.

Such a caring and understanding person, but lectures were boring at times. The material was interesting, but for a 2 hour lecture I was falling asleep :( Section was boring too, TA just gave us questions to talk with each other about the whole time and some people wouldn't talk. Midterm/final were kinda intimidating, but I passed.

Prof Mireles-Rios truly cares about her students & is very approachable. Although she tends to go off a tangent, ppts are always available on canvas. Graded on weekly reading reflections, attendance, midterm, & final exam. TA was also very approachable & grading was fair. Exams are short essay questions mostly based on your experiences.

Professor Mireles-Rios means well but I found her presentation of the lecture disorganized at times. The expectation for citing and knowing certain materials in the midterm and final included some things that were not covered in the class or in the readings. Her communication with or ability to guide the TA also seemed inadequate.

One of the best professors I have ever had! Her course was a great combination of interesting material, thought provoking assignments, and insightful discussions. Would highly recommend.

Shes a very kind professor but spacey during lecture as if she doesnt know what shes talking about. Lectures are not synched with readings. Busy work here and there. Not as great as Id thought shed be
