Winter 2024 - Professor Brand is really funny, engaging, and very knowledgeable about the material! She always answers questions during lectures via an online poll. Lecture attendance is not required but she does not write down everything on her slides that are needed for the quizzes. The grading scheme included 3 quizzes that were take home and based on details from the lecture, a 5-page midterm, a 7-page final, and discussion attendance. The paper grading is dependent on the TA so ask your TA what they expect from your paper but the final paper is just adding on and editing the midterm paper with stuff from the later half of the class. Very chill class and an amazing professor!

Spring 2022 - Grade is based on 3 take home quizzes, midterm which was a 5 page essay outline, and the final which was a 7-10 page essay, and attending discussion section. The lectures were not very engaging, in my opinion, but they were recorded so that was nice. A lot of people in the class felt her grading was quite rigorous, which I agree with, so just be aware of that.
