I truly underestimated this class. I thought this was going to the the basic philo class taking about the universe and God and all that, but what I took away from it was so much more than that. I will admit I was scared of the workload and everything seemed to be going way too quickly, but once you understand the pace, its all good from there. I always looked forward to going to that class because the environment was so sharp and deep, people wanted to learned and they started speaking about their lives and their view on the world. This is a class that I will never forget.
Not all the test material is reviewed in class, you will have to do a lot of reading the text book on your own, but every exam I had with him was open book. He mostly goes over slides in class, but he gives links to real world examples. We had one 5% group project which was to prepare us for our 20% group project at the end of the semester. We had 3 exams all worth 20% and we had 15 quizzes all adding up to 15% of the overall grade.
Drop the class, for me it was a nightmare with online class, he doesn't teach during class time he hands you 30 documents and youtube videos and expects you to know things for the test. it might just be me who doesn't work well in that environment but I found it terrible
I had this teacher for my introduction to Western Civilization class and she is a good teacher overall. However, make sure to attend all the classes as most of the quizzes depend on the class notes which are on the powerpoints. She does post them though, but be prepared to take a lot of notes. Paper notes are allowed during the quizzes and they do count for a lot, considering that they are quizzes (about 6% per quiz, for a total of 25%).
