Summer 2024 - I really liked this class a lot and it is such a super easy GE to take during the summer. Each week there would be 2 Persuall lectures where you have to leave two comments, each at least 50 words, somewhere throughout the lecture, inputing your incite. You will receive 2pts for each lecture as long as you do just that. There were discussion posts each week, requiring citations from at least two of the readings or lecture videos posted for the week. This was really easy and I would just skim through most the readings to grab the general idea. Lastly, there were two "Mini-terms" one during Week 4 and another one during Week 6. The only thing I would critique is the lack of clarity on what they wanted for the Mini Terms, I was just a little confused on what exactly they were looking for, but I still received an A on both. I'm sure if you go to office hours this would be clarified but I never bothered to go lol. Overall, I liked this class a lot and I found it really inciteful and interesting.
