Great tito, reqs on the heavier side

positive

• WorkloadHeavy

Hi there! Had Sir Blue for Ethics last sem. Teaching style: sir is good at deconstructing texts and ideas into bite-sized discussions. Fixed but reasonable deadlines. He encourages active participation in class. Had him for a 9-11AM class but he always found ways to make topics relevant and relatable so you’d want to listen. Just a great tito prof overall with good insights. Also genuinely cares for his students. Requirements: manageable but on the heavier side. 6 modules with discussion boards at the start of every module, multiple group works (one was making an ethics meme lol), individual 10-point quizzes at the end (he’s really tricky with these), midterm elucidations, a creative group presentation, and oral exams by dyad (you’ll be with someone but it’s graded individually). Grading: B to B+ average but definitely A-able!!! To get an A: get good groupmates, be REALLY participative in class, be punctual w assessments (answer things ASAP), and don’t BS bc sir knows his stuff. Overall: take him if you can. His workload might be a bit much (esp if you have more than 5 subjects) but super kaya and worth it<3more

Light philo; engaging lawyer-tito

positive

ended up taking sir blue! i would recommend him for a light philo workload is saks lang (some in class group activities, 3-4 async multiple choice quizzes, 1 reflection paper, 1 recorded presentation, online orals) his discussions were engaging naman and he tied a lot of it back to his experience as a lawyer which was interesting! he appreciates when you participate in his discussions and it's part of the grade but he won't call people randomly (iirc) somehow got an A even if i got B+ or lower for all outputs. i personally got by without doing his readings until orals hehe.more

Cite the readings if you want an A

mixed

hmmm you have to show that you can do critical thinking, like you are ready to answer his follow up questions, that will get you a B+. But if you want to get an A, you should cite the readings so he knows that you did lots of extra studying. He is very madamot in giving A’s hahahahamore
