Fall 2024 - Sweetest class I've ever taken. My TA gave us great discussion topics and reviews of lecture material. They also brought prizes sometimes; it was fun. There was hardly any homework and the final/midterm were projects/reflection essays. This class was perfect to take as a fourth class for me because the workload wasn't crazy and the material was very clear.

Summer 2025 - I took this class through the freshman summer AAP program. The lectures were clear and easy to follow, but the workload was light, including the final assignment. Over time I stopped taking notes since much of the class involved watching movies. While the instructor occasionally shared interesting personal insights, the teaching relied heavily on reading directly from the slides.
