Quarter: Winter 2024
Grade: A

I noticed that this professor had no reviews, so I will be the saving grace and explain my experience in this course. This was the professor's first time teaching 108, so it was off to a rocky start. We spent the first four weeks learning about different philosophers, Marxism, and the dialectic thinking approach (the professor wanted us to incorporate this into our final projects) and the whole class was wondering how this related to the research project we were supposed to present by the end of the quarter. These lectures were extremely hard to follow and grasp as there were no lecture slides and it felt like we were just listening to the professor's unorganized stream of consciousness. We also had two reading responses due and these were graded harshly. I was tempted to drop this class because of how difficult it was in the beginning, but I stuck it out and I'm glad I did.

We ended up telling her that the current class structure with the incorporation of readings and lectures wasn't helpful and that we all preferred to work on our group projects while in class. She was very willing to listen and shifted the class focus to our group projects. With all of this said, this class is an honors course and Dr. Carr does not tolerate lazy work. If you're struggling, she is very willing to help each and every student during office hours, it also demonstrates to her that you care! In hindsight, this was her very first time teaching this course, so it was all new to everyone.
