Ok class. A little boring but the rest makes up for it. Interaction with your TA and doing work in discussion is the most important part imo.
Although I only had Professor Cleveland for 3 instead of 5 weeks I would say his classes were solid. Homework is usually reading a research paper and writing up a reflection on it. His lecture slides are clustered, it was hard taking notes during class because it was so information dense. It was hard to figure out what the main idea that we were supposed to understand, but it wasn't impossible. His quizzes were straightforward, but sometimes it felt like the questions were being nitpicky rather than asking you to know the main idea. He's friendly and tries to get to know the students by asking them for their names when you answer questions for him so that's nice, but I'd get it if everyone wasn't comfortable called out in front of the entire class. Professor Cleveland is a very passionate and knowledgable speaker in the topic, but some aspects of his classes can be more clearer. Luckily, he's friendly to talk to and ask questions. TLDR; If you miss some of the notes during lecture, the slides are on Bruinlearn and quizzes aren't too bad
