Best POLSCI class, clear modules, still present

positive

• Retake?Yes
• WorkloadLight

Ma'am Anne's class was arguably one of the best classes I took in POLSCI. Learned a lot of tips and tricks on how to make our very theoretical course more practical. It's the only course she teaches in undergrad since she's very busy with admin work but you won't feel like she doesn't have time for the class. N.B. that I took this during the quarterly set up so there might be a change of style but her class was a very clear set of 5 modules designed to be learned asynchronously with synchro sessions at the end of each module. Each module essentially has a reading, the course content, discussion board, and recorded video of the topic for that specific module which is at most 12 mins. This made the module very easy to understand and digest especially because it was designed carefully. On course requirements, I believe there were 2 (?) indiv reflection papers, 2 DBs, and 1 Group Paper divided into, formative and summative assestments. If you do plan to take her, just read the rubrics and the syllabus carefully and always go back to that for your outputs to get a good grade. Maximize consultation with her as well for your group policy paper since a chunk of the grade will come from that. You'll surely learn a lot from her if you take her. Easy A? Not really. But she won't fail you naman. Goodluck 😊more

One of the best, practical, clear rubrics, no late reqs

• Retake?Yes
• 4.0 attainableYes
• LeniencyYes

Got her for a different class (and not online, not sure if she taught already since the pandemic started) but would say she's one of the best profs ever!! Public policy is really her stuff and she gives very practical insights on the topic considering her background in education policy and local governance. Gives great feedback and constructive criticism on your work, very clear rubrics. Make sure to stick to the deadline in your syllabus because if you miss a requirement, you miss it (at least pre-online setting). Also, stick to the rubrics bc she checks them very objectively, if you fail a requirement you fail talaga haha pero getting a good grade is not impossible either--again just read the instructions and rubrics carefully and you'll be fine. Very practical prof to get, gives you great insight on the messy and exciting life of being a public policy practitioner hehe don't miss the chance to take her class :)more

Highly recommend POLSC 121, no curve

positive

• CoursePOLSC 121
• Retake?Yes

Hi! I did end up taking her for POLSC 121, and I highly highly recommend doing so as well! She really knows what she's teaching, and not just in the academic type of way— she knows it because she has experience in education policy and local governance nga talaga. I agree tho 'di siya nagcucurve and not exactly life changing 'yung class mismo. But I was pretty excited to take Public Policy and she did not disappoint. Hope this helps!more
