Bravo is a nice guy. His lectures are well-structured, and rely heavily on the readings. If you read, you will be fine. The test questions are not tricky at all: if you know the main concepts, you will do well. His pop quizzes are usually really easy, if you have done the reading (surprisingly enough). He has a little bit of an annoying accent, but overall he's cool.
Very interesting course. I had wanted to learn more about Mexican Politics for a long time! Glad I could get into this course. His slides were good, even tho he didn't post them online. Not too hard exams, although the readings were challenging.
Well I have to say that he is dull using the banking method in such a small class! I wish there was more insight on the readings, but he never offered any! Overall yea got to agree that his quizzes are easy. If you keep up with the readings, understand the concepts and go to office hours will help a great deal on the exam. He is alright overall.
dead serious im sitting in this class right now. pos drop. worst lecturer. boring slides. tasteless. dece babes.
Monotone. You will fall asleep. And worst of all he just summarizes. Dece babes.
Knowledgeable but not experienced lecturer. If student asks a question he likes talking so his answer will be way over the top. My advice isn't stay away, he's probably fair, just know that he's not that good lecturing bc he'll never get through it all.
Great professor, extremely concern with student learning. The only thing you have to do is do the readings by the assign date and you are set. Lecture basically breaks down the readings and the quizzes keep you on top of your game. The midterm and final are not overwhelming if you done the reading.
Pretty straightfoward class. A couple of quizzes (which are simple, if you do the readings), powerpoint lectures with relevant information on tests. One midterm and final, multiple choice and lowest quiz score is dropped. Overall, good class. Highly recommend.
A bit intimidating at first, but worth it. I had always wanted to learn mroe about Mexican Politics in a more systematic way. This course was great. Made me revise a lot of what I thought I knew about Mexico.
Grading was fair. Not too hard. Some of the movies were really great.
I took IDS 191 with him, an upper division course on Migration and Development in Mexico. I thought I'd hate the course (lots of papers with stats and regressions), but I ended really liking it and appreciating why the readings were kinda technical and dry, but more systematic than anecdotes. It wasn't easy to get used to that way of looking at things, but I must say it changed how I view lots of things (migration, Mexico, the US, development, and evidence).
