This professor led one of the BEST structured online classes I have ever taken. All of her assignments were due at the end of the quarter and it was up to you to chose what grade you wanted by accumulating the minimum amount of assignment points that would be assigned to each grade. Only downside was you had to attend lectures through zoom but she kept them light, showed movies, and was very passionate and understanding regarding the circumstances of being a college student. She just wanted to teach her subject and did a great job at it.

I absolutely hated this professor, however, the content of the class was quite interesting. She had a horrible way of organizing lectures and the content in the class. She always went on a tangent and never spoke about the material we were supposed to go over. Her instructions on the midterm and final were very vague and when you asked her anything she would refer you back to the handout which did not answer the questions. Overall she was a lazy professor and although I got an A in the class, I felt like I wasted a quarter on this class. Its an easy A if you're looking for that but I prefer to get to know my professors, have intellectual conversations and learn something if I'm paying as much as I am for attending UCLA. Waste of time. the worst professor ever.

I really enjoyed taking this class. Professor Ribet is very kind and talks slowly so everyone can understand her. She loves asking for student's opinions and we often go on a tangent because of it. The course consists of a midterm, final, book review and discussion groups. The midterm and final are a collection of essays. She gives you four prompts and you pick three to write about. She has a 48 hour no penalty for late work policy. In this class we read court cases and pieces of legislature. The professor lecture goes at a slow pace. She does a really good job at teaching you how to brief court cases. There are no textbooks required for this class as all the reading are posted online. She also offers opportunities for extra credit. I definitely recommend taking her class!
