I was a little intimidated to take a 'literature' class. Actually, I enrolled in this class the morning of the first week of the quarter, and so I wasn't sure what to expect. However, I found myself thoroughly enjoying it. The class is designed in a way that's 'discussion-driven if that makes sense. The professor and the students are talking about the chapters and the discussion flows very naturally in that way. If you couldn't make the live online lectures, you could make up that participation by posting and responding to questions and comments on Slack. Professor was also easily reachable on there. We had short quizzes every other week about the chapters that were assigned, 1 midterm, and a final. The midterm was like 10 questions and we had to pick 8 to answer in a couple of sentences. I liked that it was more synthesizing or critical thinking type of q&a rather than knowing very specific details about the book. And it was graded leniently so that you didn't have to have profound meanings or interpretations of the books to get a good grade. The final was my favorite. It was completely up to us about what direction we wanted to take it. I chose to make a video, but blogs, tweets, traditional essays, art,[ really anything] was all acceptable and as long as the effort was put in, a good grade was almost guaranteed. I very much enjoyed this class and would take it again. Good luck!
