CollegeShe is very kind and I would recommend taking her online course. Don't let the other reviews persuade you otherwise.
This was a super straightforward class. The course material was clear and I learned a lot from it but my main issue was that the lectures were repetitive of the readings. I strongly recommend for a GE.
amazing :)
This class wasn't meant to be online, especially since it's about theatre, but Professor Diaz Sanchez kept it entertaining nevertheless! The entire grade is biweekly quizzes from the reading, attendance, and three different sections about a play group project (the script, the performance, and an analysis paper). Very easy class, highly recommend.
This class satisfy a lot of things. There are a lot of long readings, and one week we needed to read an entire book. Weekly quizzes were ok, and the grading was ok at first. However for the final paper, my TA thought my outline was good, and after I wrote a paper based on the outline, I got a D on the final paper.
Prof was very kind but the class was incredibly boring. No exams, five online quizzes, section participation, two 1-page lecture reflections, and a 5 page final essay. I got an A and only went to lecture twice during the whole quarter. If you just need the GE credit then go for it. If you actually want to learn something, look for a different prof.
