CollegeSame structure as his other classes. 2 papers midterm and final. The TA for this class was such a nice grader. Online quizzes on reading. If you need a relatively easy class take one with him.
2 writing assignments (1 reflection 1 midterm), 5 discussion posts (out of a possible 8), 4 quizzes on lecture and films, and a group final. Grading on writing assignments can be a little tough but overall, very great professor. Final is a group object where you pick what you do.
Took this professor Spring quarter for queer/comm media and it was a very well planned out course. attendance is not mandatory but you won't understand what's going on if you miss. Learning checks weekly which is basically a quiz on the material we've learned so far, but he tells you what material to know going into it.
fun professor, really enjoyed his lectures and humor. the class wasn't super easy but it definitely wasn't hard. about 5 reading quizzes which were probably the most difficult thing in the course but you could pass if you read abstracts and skimmed. 2 papers that were doable, i would take another class with him
The professor and TA are tough graders. 5 learning checks, 1 Midterm paper, 6/10 reflections you have to answer and 1 Final paper/ Infographic. Attend class to be prepared for the learning checks. Professor has no slides or notes, just talks and you have to make your own notes. I am a visual learner so this was tough. Professor was cool though.
