I got a B- on the midterm paper and an A- on the final paper, but I ended up with a C. Confused? if you plan on taking this class make sure you actually go, or have a friend that goes, cause those weekly quizzes will murder you. The answers are usually not in the ppt, she writes on the chalkboard or says them orally. I liked her though, and the class was interesting, maybe because I'm interested in education.
Grade is based on 3 take home quizzes, midterm which was a 5 page essay outline, and the final which was a 7-10 page essay, and attending discussion section. The lectures were not very engaging, in my opinion, but they were recorded so that was nice. A lot of people in the class felt her grading was quite rigorous, which I agree with, so just be aware of that.
surprisingly enjoyed this class. it was really well paced and organized with take home quizzes every couple weeks and a 5 page draft for the final due around midterm season. this was tremendously helpful because the final is 7-10 pages and with a 5 page draft, it was basically half done. highly recommend taking this class
Professor Brand is really funny, engaging, and very knowledgeable about the material! She always answers questions during lectures via an online poll. Lecture attendance is not required but she does not write down everything on her slides that are needed for the quizzes. The grading scheme included 3 quizzes that were take home and based on details from the lecture, a 5-page midterm, a 7-page final, and discussion attendance. The paper grading is dependent on the TA so ask your TA what they expect from your paper but the final paper is just adding on and editing the midterm paper with stuff from the later half of the class. Very chill class and an amazing professor!
Professor Brand is very engaging and funny. She reads off her slides for the most part and allows class to ask questions via poll everywhere. Midterm is 5 page double space essay and final is 7 page double space essay that is a continuation of midterm. Chill class. Classes aren’t recorded and her quiz questions ask specific things about stuff that isn’t on slides so you do have to take detailed notes and pay attention, but her class is super straightforward. Take it!
Amazing professor and very approachable and understanding. She did recorded lectures with slides and explained things clearly while also hosting office hours after class for those who were able to watch lecture immediately. She broke things down clearly and asked always checked in with her students on how they are doing. Loved this class and the professor. Both midterm and final asked the same question for the prompt but had different page length recommendations (its do able). She also offered extra credit.
