This was one of my favorite classes that I've taken at UCLA! Lectures were held in person but you didn't necessarily have to be there because they were recorded. I personally enjoyed going. Assignments include weekly reading responses (not too bad, sometimes fun), a final research project (very fun because you get to choose your own topic), and one other paper around midterms that includes a visual aspect (also fun). I really enjoyed the content of this course and how an attempt was made to make it more fun through little comments and more creative coursework. I loved my TA Patty as well. Overall, would recommend.
