the midterm and final combined were 50% of the grade, the rest of the class is P/NP assignments. so. much. information. you need to be an expert on the subject matter to do well on the exams. the final had me praying to god and calling on my ancestors. she's very passionate about what she teaches, but the course content needs to be halved. run.
Professor Badamo was excellent. We had weekly readings that were easy to understand and informative, and the lectures followed the readings. The course included 2-3 exams, and she provided a helpful study guide for each. We were also assigned a group project at the end of the quarter, which I enjoyed.
Sort of baffled by the bad reviews. I thought her lectures were clear, and she was very interested in our success. You really do have to take good notes, and pay attention to the readings (1/week), but I didn't find it more difficult than usual. Study guides are extremely similar to the actual test. She is clearly passionate about this subject.
I took ARTHI105Q and I really enjoyed the content. The lectures were easy to follow and she provided outlines before. There were 2 midterms (so easy) MCQ, SA and vocab matching. The final was a group presentation but she gave you plenty of time to work on it. Reading is important and shows up on tests. But overall really great class.
