Spring 2024 - This class was chill, and Paulson is overall a pretty solid professor. The class has weekly quizzes on the readings, and they were pretty fair for the most part. Some of them asked really bogus or random questions, but if you do the readings you'll be fine. The bulk of your grade is based on a final group project in which you do a deep dive into an emergent technology/practice that will reduce carbon emissions. Sometimes the lectures could get a little boring, as it was offered in weekly three hour seminars, but she normally gave us project work time which was nice. Overall I would recommend this class if you're looking for a relatively chill UD to take!

I loved this class! Professor Paulson is a very intelligent lady and you will learn a lot from her. She's very considerate, approachable and helpful. She makes really good power point slides and the best thing is she will print out all the slides for you so you don't have to waste time and money to do it. The subject itself and very interesting and I really enjoyed learning about it. The test material is a little lengthy and definitely doable. One might complain about what we tested it on was not relevant the the course material, I think this is not true because you need to use what you have learned to tackle the problem. This is a very good practice because I personally think memorizing concepts is useless, you will always have to apply the concepts you have learned. This is why the Professor Paulson give such questions and I liked them. Oh, when she says " I don't know, what do you think", she's not try to be vague or she really doesn't know the answer, she's trying to get you think, try to come up with your answer instead telling you the answer. Overall, Prof. Paulson is a very good professor, I learned a great deal in this class. I will definitely take her class again!
