Prof. Teo was a delight. One of my favorite professors at UCLA. The class is very easy; three papers total and attendance/participation grade for the discussion section. Great class!
You don't have to go to lecture to be able to do well in the class. There are three papers that you have to write but if you reference his lecture a few times, you are guaranteed a good grade on the paper. The final was either a group performance or a paper and if your performance is somewhat good, then you should do good on the final as well.
teo was a great lecturer and really engaging; most of your grade is dependent on your ta; the class is mostly papers
Love this class!! super fun, genuinely one of my favorite classes ive ever taken
