Easiest comm class and most interesting material. Less than an hour weekly lecture videos and 2 weekly discussion posts. There is a paper at the end but you choose from lots of topics and it's pretty interesting. This is my 8th upper div comm class and this is by far the easiest one. 100% recommend to anyone in the major to take this class!

Great prof, easy class (took it online), just doing weekly quizzes which are open book, readings were straight forward and you can skim

I enjoyed taking this class during S22! The online format was amazing. Grading was out of 200 points, with 10 quizzes at 10pts each, 2 discussion posts at 3pts each (every week), and a final paper at 40pts. Quizzes were open-book and had an hour time limit. The 3-5 page paper was straightforward. I would recommend this class & professor!

An online class shared with all UC campus. The content of deception detection is very intriguing, and Dunbar is really an expert in the field. The pre-recorded lectures are brief and informative. Weekly quiz is simple as long as you watch the lecture. The 3 pages paper is also fairly graded.

Deception Comm was so interesting and Dunbar is a great professor! The class was half online and will be entirely online next quarter, which makes it so much easier and less stressful. Just 10 weekly quizzes, 5 group discussion posts, and a short group paper. You can earn 2% extra credit by doing SONA studies. Take this class!

I took this class as it was transitioning from in-person to online, so it was a super unique experience. As this course switching to fully online in Fall 19 I would say you should definitely take this class if you have other challenging courses you need to take at the same time. Weekly quizzes instead of a midterm + final was literally the best.
