Wrote a few papers and they were guided very easy. Big research paper but you have so much time. Dont purchase the grammar book just the ethics one. After covid still did zoom he works with you some assignments may seem pointless

Cool guy & understanding professor. Doesn't assign books so no money spent. His rubrics are pretty easy to get an A in and his grading is super clear. Sometimes has u write entries that he'll collect in the end so u can skip but find out what they did. Puts u into groups first day and that's ur group for the the sem and u do a final proj together.

John is so funny. We did readings in the beginning of the year then most of the class was spent writing papers and we did two presentations. There was no final, but we had a presentation.

Swanson is awesome. Super laid back class but you're still learning and getting things done. Assigns some reading with reflection. And a few long papers.

John is so funny. If you take his class be prepared to work in groups almost everyday. Also prepare for presentations and writing papers. He's a really nice guy and very understanding so if you ever need help he's willing to sit down and talk to you so you get the best grade possible in his class.

The class was actually pretty fun. The homework was small reading assignments and a few essays. He gave quizzes for the reading assignments. We were put into groups to discuss reading assignments as well. There were a few presentations but the class had about 20 people so it wasn't bad.
