I was pleasantly surprised by this class. I think she's a great lecturer, she's clearly passionate about the topic, and she's very easy to talk to. Yes, there are 6 assignments spread out through the quarter but they aren't difficult and there are no midterms or finals. (Everything is chat-gptable too, but you didnt hear that from me lol)

Class was doable but the professor clearly didn't know what she was talking about, leaving the whole class confused every lecture. She had to be corrected by the TA several times and then would crash out every time because she didn't want to be wrong. Also her lectures are rambling sessions and extremely boring. Unnecessarily heavy work load.

Professor Taylor was a great professor. Her lectures were clear and easy to follow. There were seven (time consuming but easy) assignments and the expectations were made clear. Feedback was helpful and if you follow it you should improve. Lots of reading and weekly quizzes but the guiding questions are really helpful if you look over them.

The writing assignments in this class were a huge pain. Not only were they harshly graded, but got zero feedback. I had to keep bugging the ta to give me feedback on why I got points off?? Follows a weird version of ASA formatting. Quiz questions contradict the reading if you can even access the readings. Repetitive weekly assignments.

She has so much knowledge to offer and it was such an interesting course to take! I do think that the units material had a lot of work, but the quizzes + discussions were easy points. The 3 papers were fine as long as you carefully follow the instructions. She ended up giving us extra credit too, I definitely recommend taking her!

Nothing to complain about for the lectures, although a bit repetitive. The discussion posts and quizzes are easy points as long as you do them. However, the difficulty of this course comes with the grading of the three writing assignments. Prof. Taylor claims they are graded harsher to compensate for the easiness of the weekly assignments.
