Spring 2023 - I rarely write reviews, but I just had to for this class. This was the lightest and the most enjoyable class I took at UCLA. The lecture portion is recorded. Videos are short and easily digestible. The material is clear and interesting. The sections are done mainly by the professor and she is amazing. Very engaging. There are 2 quizzes per week (one on the lecture with 10 questions and one on the section with 5 questions). Super easy and straightforward. If you watch lectures you will be able to answer everything and get 100% There is also a discussion weekly, a reflection paper, and a manuscript review. all of them very easy to do. I wish there were more classes like this one. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!
