EXTREMELY easy class. Like, this is the way to go for a GE

I really enjoyed taking theater 10 over C-session online. Each week the teacher would post engaging lecture videos, occasionally a reading, and online quizzes to be completed through Canvas. The material was easy to understand and the teacher was very supportive. Easy GE that I would definitely recommend!

This class was asynchronous, but it is an extremely amazing GE to take and the workload is very manageable. There were two lecture modules per week with an associated 10 question quiz which was pretty simple if you listened to the lecture and did the readings. Additionally, you had to write a short 200 wordish discussion post each week and reply to another student as well. One lowest score in each category was dropped. There was also one term paper regarding a theater topic, but we were allowed to choose our own deadline, which was great and the paper was graded very fairly. Overall, I really recommend taking this class as a GE.

Super easy GE, just 2 easy quizzes and a discussion board a week, plus one essay on whatever play/musical you’d like. Really doable.

TAKE THIS GE!!!

Cannot stress enough how easy and flexible this class was especially when I combined it with two other summer courses (major reqs) and working a part-time job. Dr. Gorshein basically has everything laid out in the syllabus and there are routine discussion posts and quizzes each week relating to the screenings, reading and lecture. There is one essay in this class (~1000-1200 words) but you can write about anything theater-related and Dr. Gorshein is very helpful through the process. I ended up writing about Japanese theater and he gave me lots of resources to support my thesis. **also!! there are three different paper deadlines to choose from, all spaced two weeks from each other so you get to choose when you want to do it by. I chose the earliest just to get it out of the way**
I really liked how quick the TA and professor would respond to emails and the quick feedback we'd get for our quiz, discussion, and essay scores. I have no regrets with this class and highly recommend. It was so relaxing and I actually did enjoy learning about theater with Dr. Gorshein.

Didn't really learn that much but it was an easy A. Lectures were just him talking about theater and the readings were a bit long, but you don't have to read it if you didn't want to.

This class is the best move

This is a great and easy GE. I am a STEM major and not at all into acting lol! The only acting you actually have to do is a short video for extra credit (so it's completely optional). The readings and videos are interesting and pretty light in workload. The essays are graded fairly easy and it isn't hard to succeed in this class.

Professor Gorschein is awesome. The class is online anyway so there wasn't much change to his plan. I found a newfound appreciation for live theatre through his class and once things get back to normal I would really like to attend live performances. There was weekly homework based on the readings and a midterm paper and final. This was all simple and graded leniently.

This is the easiest class i've ever taken in UCLA. Not only is it easy, it is also interesting. During the summer, we have two lectures per week, accompanied by readings and screenings. All of the material are super interesting and you learn a lot about theater and different plays. Our grade consists of weekly quizzes, midterm paper, and final paper. The paper topics are flexible too, and it's really nice to choose which one you like the most. Grading is mostly lenient, and I highly recommend this class!
