Fall 2019 - You guys, there isnt a review for this course and therefore I had to write one. Please take this class it is so easy. Only 3 essays (5 pages long), one group project, and two extra credit assignments. You must attend class because attendance is taken and mini in class assignments are given but they are easy. A strict rubric is given for each essay which breaks down each section and says expcility what one must do to receive full credit. Skimming through readings and or taking notes in class is enough to pass with an A. I received an A+ in this course, simply by showing up and paying attention to core concepts. Long story short professor Carpio is super kind, understanding, and helpful! If you have a lot on your plate this class is the one that dosent give you much stress and moves at a slower pace. You learn great new concepts but also are not overwhelmed. If you are ever confused, reach out to her after class, everyone can easly pass this course with some effort.
