Highly recommend this course if you need a non-major upper division elective with no discussion and a very light workload. Readings are minimal, and the course content is interesting too. There are a few discussion posts and small creative writing assignments but they were all manageable within a full course load. Professor Harris was a generous (largely completion-based) grader and encouraged students to be creative and adapt the course content to their own culture.

I loved this class. Guaranteed A if u put in the work. The midterm exam is open book/open note, there’s no final exam instead u have to do a final project which can be an essay or presentation. This class did involve reading that needed to be done before class since during class you’d go into groups to discuss the readings. Overall, the workload was definitely manageable and the professor is really sweet
