CollegeThe lectures felt like story hour -- very engaging speaker and obviously very knowledgeable.
midterm gets a cheat sheet, and the final is a paper. Each week has a reading and a short writing assignment, but it's def manageable. He's really nice and passionate about the class. My TA was also great
Lecture is def mandatory, but he has been my fav lecturer so far!! He is so entertaining and makes lectures seem like a fun gossip sesh! Only prof I will ever glaze
take this class! graded on 1 midterm where he gives all possible q's + a cheat sheet, section participation, final essay, and 6 300 word papers. i didnt go to class at all after the midterm (go before to get notes and be able to do well on the midterm). i got a 99 in the class bc lectures are interesting, content+paper arent hard, midterm is easy.
I loved this professor. He was an amazing lecturer and I actually went to class. The grade mainly depends on your TA and mine was hard but AMAZING. I found this class very fulfilling and interesting. There was a midterm in-class essay and 2 vocab q's and a final paper. The rest of the grade is weekly writings and participation. Take this class!
He is a great lecturer and class was pretty easy. If you go to lecture and take notes you will get an A. There were weekly 300 word mini papers, pretty easy and top 6 count, a midterm where you get a full page of notes to bring, and a final paper that was pretty easy. This was a great class that I really enjoyed.
