Quizzes track the lectures, memorize names and concepts

positive

Extra Info: - all her quizzes are doable. her questions all pertain to the actual theories/concepts themselves, no names of people (aside from maybe the bonus points, more on those later). listen to her discussions. the parts she places emphasis on (the ones she asks the class to give examples for) are more likely to come up. make sure to memorize the actual names of the theories/concepts, too. those come up in quizzes sometimes. occasionally, in quizzes, she will ask for important words or phrases that were used in relation to one of the concepts discussed, so be sure to actually Understand everything you see in her powerpoint/canvas modules. - she gives at least one bonus point for each quiz. what exactly you need to do to get the bonus point varies, but just follow her instructions as you go through the lecture. if she recommends you watch a specific video, watch it. if she tells you to go through a reading, go through it. those are usually hints to what bonus question will show up. - regarding the readings, we only had to do them for two modules. she gives you a gdrive with readings and asks you to read 1 or 2 of them before the quiz. you choose which ones to read, so you can literally just pick the shortest one and stick with it. when she asked our class about the reading/s, she asked for the author and one main point of the reading. so no need to memorize the whole thing, just understand it. - she lets you pick groups for non-binhi activities. this group will last the whole sem, so choose wisely. - i don’t recommend cramming… i had an easier time studying her lessons when i studied a little bit everyday for a few days. it’s definitely crammable, but i tried it once and did not enjoy (still got perfect in the quiz but i was so stressed abt it HAHAHHA) - for the minor creative outputs, she very much values varied examples. show her as many applications of the lesson/s as you can, and she’ll give you a high grade. i kind of did the bare minimum for the first output, and she still gave me a B so don’t worry about getting too low of a grade - DO NOT CRAM THE DISCUSSION BOARDS. i’ve seen people try to cram them, and all i can say is i’m grateful they were not me. i remember one of the modules took me like 4hrs to finish all the discussion boards (+ distraction time & procrastination tho so it could probably be finished in 2hrs if u really crunch) - another review on her i saw mentioned that she gets mad pretty easily… i have never seen her get even mildly frustrated in my time with her. it might possibly be because my class is goated (shoutout to my block), so she was suuuper nice with us hehe. if your class actively participates in lectures and doesn’t give her a hard time, i don’t think you’ll have any problems with her <33 best of luck and enjoy!!!more

CourseSOCSC 11

just finished my sem with maam lia for socsc 11, and i enjoyed her class!! i’ll leave a shorter review here and put more details in the replies for anyone interested Requirements: - 1 quiz per module (we had 4 quizzes) - 2 major creative outputs: 1 group, 1 solo - at least 2 minor creative outputs, 1 for each of the first two modules - a few group presentations (i forgot exactly how many, but definitely less than 5. one of these is your binhi presentation) Notes: - doesn’t like gadgets in her class and will ask you to put them away - discourages note-taking in class and places emphasis on participating in discussions instead. canvas modules are usually made ready before she starts discussing them, and she releases the powerpoint slides she used in class after she has finished discussing the whole module - really encourages students to share their own applications and experiences. her lectures feel like group therapy (in a good way) as in super chill. i had fun - has discussion boards. lots of them. but all the questions are usually just applying the lesson to your own experiences, which is pretty easy. these discussion boards contribute to your recitation, and you have a long time to get them all done. - her syllabus has clear rubrics, and she is open to any questions about your grades. she gives you feedback when you ask for it. - i wouldn’t say her class is groupwork-heavy, but i definitely had to work with my group more in the 2nd half of the sem. there are a few major outputs that are groupwork, but she also has individual reqs nmn - she’s almost always onsite, and she always an asynchronous activity for the days the class can’t meet - not heavy on readings. as in i almost forgot her class had any readings at all before writing this review. you’ll want to focus more on the canvas modules and powerpoints TL;DR: i would take her class again if given the chance!! she’s easy to talk to, and as long as you have a clear grasp of her lessons, you’ll do well. definitely A-able with some effort, but if you’re just here to have fun, you’ll still get a good grade.more

Particular and quiz-tricky, but lectures are fun

i had maam lia back in sy 23-24! the first thing i remember about her is how particular she is. she was expecting us to have read through the syllabus by the first meeting so she was kinda intimidating about that. after that though, her onsite lectures are a lot of fun especially since she asks for personal insights and experiences 🩷 requirements were mostly quizzes and activities, a group creative video/presentation, and a final solo presentation! however, her quizzes can be tricky but i suggest reading and knowing terms word for word because it’s very objective. also make sure your class recites a lot because she values student participation a lot. she gets pissed off really easily though so please don’t tick her off or your lectures will suffer trust me 😅 but overall she’s okay! definitely a-able but you have to make sure you don’t fail any of the quizzes ksi malaking hatakmore

4.0 attainableYes

i remember there being a 50/50 split of group and indiv work, but afaik it’s mostly solo work for the activities and especially the quizzes - study really well for the quizzes as mentioned — like terms, names, etc., also read the extra readings provided bc she gives bonus points sometimes. her quizzes are like identification and enumeration, with some short answer portions where you explain and expound on a certain idea. - do recite a lot in her class bc if she remembers you contributing to class discussion, chances are she’ll give you a high grade was able to get an a in her class with these!!more
