Winter 2020 - I had Phelan for LS 15 and loved his lectures so I decided to take this class with him. I really enjoyed his book (the one he is cowriting with his friend) and I found that it gave me a lot of helpful tips that I could utilize in the future. A lot of this class was based on participation. Some classes were more boring than others, but it was still doable. Also, there are homework assignments (reflections) and a final presentation, but it was very low stress. If you're curious about a UCLA "hacks" type class, I would definitely recommend Phelan because he is very knowledgeable and has a lot to share.
