This class was okay and doable. The class met twice a week which consisted of a movie one day and a short quiz and lecture the other. Every week there was also a short writing prompt based on the reading, with the majority being a minimum of 250 words, and then 2 longer ones at 500 words. The quiz was about 5 questions based on the movie and reading. The most annoying part was how much reading was assigned yet the quiz and writing focused on only 1 of the readings. Whatever reading was covered in the written assignment was also on the quiz, so it's important to read that one closely and be able to cite evidence from it in your writing. There was no midterm, but the final exam gave options between a 10-12 page essay or a more creative option. The lectures were a bit boring and had absolutely no relevance to the quizzes or writing assignments, but they were only an hour and 15 minutes so they went by fast. The TA was nice and graded the written assignments, while the professor just handled the weekly quizzes. Also, the grading system was confusing at first because assignments were initially graded on a scale of 1-3 points, but then other assignments started being graded differently, so it became unclear what your actual grade was. Ultimately, if you put in some effort and demonstrate understanding of the topic to the best of your ability, you'll likely get an A. If you need an easy upper division history course, I'd recommend taking this one.
