I found this class very interesting and she brought so much life to every lecture. The readings are a little difficult but she explains them thoroughly in lecture. Class is overall easy but requires a good amount of memorizing. She would sometimes call on random people when nobody answers a question. We meditated before a midterm and it was lit.
Dr McMahon was so accommodating this quarter in the midst of everything going on. Read the plays, skim through the other readings, pay attention to lecture, and you'll get through the quizzes easily. The papers are a little harder because you have to come up with a prompt yourself but she's a lenient grader. Definitely take her for GEs!
Super reasonable in these difficult times. Class was really easy, probably the easiest GE I've taken. Gave good feedback on essay. Class was graded off of 2 essays, participation, attendance, and unit quizzes.
Super sweet lady and her expectations are very clear. She prepares you very well for her tests with study guides. I didn't fully read any of the plays and I still got an A. The content of the class itself is not super interesting but you can tell Dr. McMahon is passionate about her work.
Professor McMahon is a very sweet professor! The exams were really fair and she goes over everything in lecture that you would need to know. She really did a good job at making class interesting and would recommend for a GE!
Dr. McMahon is a really great professor - clearly cares about the subject and explains everything really well. Takes iClicker for attendance so be sure to go to lecture. All readings are from the textbook, but you can get it for a lot cheaper online. Weekly short online quizzes. Exams are fair and based off what is discussed in lecture.
