Very enjoyable class and the teacher is very passionate about the subject. The quizzes are really easy to complete, as long as you watch the lecture videos. The prof doesn't care if you show up to class, there are no midterms or finals, and the homework is very easy to complete (I didn't need to do the readings).
100% Recommend. TAs and Professor were deeply passionate about the course and always made time to attend to each student's needs. Even when the strike happened, she readjusted the expectations of the assignment and cancelled a project while also changing our final paper to be graded on submission
It was a pleasure to have the opportunity to take this course. The workload is relatively light with one weekly quiz (open notes) and discussion readings being the only homework that is mandated. The readings are generally quite intriguing and you will never be reading anything that isn't of interest if you are passionate about this area of study.
