Quarter: Spring 2023
Grade: A

Writing this review in response to the individual describing it as "completely disgusting". Have you taken a class at Ucla before? Maybe Art Studies is not the most demanding, but I can assure this class is not either. Professor Levy-Storms is a saint and I cannot stand for such slander on her name. My grade is built on a tempurpedic memory foam cushion of reflective journals, a policy memo, and a life review (my TA throws around 100s like an NBA player at the club). Content is about as far from dense as you could dream up. Levy-Storms takes her time with each lecture, serenading the class with jokes along the way. At the hour mark, we kick our feet up and take a 10 minute break. I will admit that, shockingly, learning about aging can be like listenting to bedtime stories on occasion. But might I mention she is the only professor who knows who I am? I mean if she does not learn your name by the end of the quarter she will die trying. The exams can be a bit of blindside, and the format of the questions can feel like it disenfranchises your efforts. Though comparing the midterm to final I think some necessary changes were made to the questions presented. All things considered, I would recommend enrolling in this with a friend, but by your lonesome I have no doubts that you would be capable of succeeding in the course.

I would highly recommend taking this class with Professor Levy-Storms! The content is very interesting and the workload is manageable. Professor Levy-Storms is an engaging professor who cares a lot about the material and takes the time to learn each student's name. She is very approachable, helpful, and willing to provide feedback; she wants students to learn and succeed in this class. This course focuses on the interdisciplinary nature of aging, and she brings in guest lecturers a few times in the quarter from different departments. The assignments include 3 one page reflective journals, a policy memo, group debates, and a 10 page paper on an interview with an older adult. These are all manageable, though the quarter is backloaded, with more of the assignments in the second half of the quarter. There was one midterm and a final - each were 50 multiple choice questions and weren't cumulative. Overall, an A is doable and the TA graded nicely, but even more so I enjoyed this course and got a lot out of it. I would recommend this course!

Dr. Levy-Storms is such a sweet professor that really cares for her students. There were times where the class did stress me out in terms of workload in the second half but the TA is honestly a lenient grader if you follow the instructions of the assignments carefully. The exams were the part of the class that would stress me out the most as they tended to be pretty specific details from mostly lecture content with few questions pertaining to the textbook. However, Dr. Levy-Storms was very considerate and would make changes to scores by scaling them up if they were too low. I would recommend the class as it was interesting to learn about a topic that I did not have much interest in but then ended up gaining a lot of information and insight into so many topics relating to this field. Overall, a great class with a great professor!
