pretty hard grader, very long and dense readings and the lectures were kinda hard to follow takes attendance
Approachable, kind, and insightful professor. Readings and lectures for this course are thought-provoking. Grading might seem tough at first, but listening to him and asking questions will help you improve on each submission. Expectations for this course were very clear, and it has been one of my favorites at UCSB so far.
I don't recommend taking his classes. He graded so harshly without saying why and at the end of the quarter he made GS unavailable to us before he even finalized grades so idek what I got on my last two papers. Theres a million readings and theyre all over the place. The entire course itself wasn't focused enough he adds too much unrelated stuff
im trying so hard to like him hes nice but hes just a bad prof. goes on super long unrelated tangents and ends it with "whats my point? my point is" JUST GET TO THE POINT DAWG PLS grades everything late and hard and barely gives feedback. so much unnecessary reading he never even goes over. taking notes on his slides is impossible. very unorganized
Very caring prof and doesn't pack on extra coursework just because we're in an online format. His asynchronous lectures make difficult concepts very accessible and simple to understand, and I recommend going to office hours because he is very approachable.
Zulueta is honestly one of my favorite profs. He has been so helpful in understanding readings and concepts and is just an all around great guy. There are a lot of readings but its not too difficult to stay on top of it because they're really interesting! Highly recommend taking one of his classes
