Spring 2025 - I really liked Professor O'Grady and I would definitely take her again. Our grade was based on an online video presentation, 2-4 reading responses, 2-3 responses about our game updates/plans, and the biggest chunk of our grade was creating a game using archaeological techniques which wasn't bad at all. I just really did not like the grader, half of our work was graded by a grader and the other half by Professor O'Grady. Professor is really helpful though, and if you're ever confused you can ask her questions and she will let you know exactly what to do to receive the best grade possible. Attendance wasn't mandatory when I took her class but it may have changed.
