Sir is....okay, I guess. If you're not a non-Polsci major who is part of the minority in a mostly-Polsci-students class. I could have learned more, I guess, but the way class was conducted made me wish I had more non-Polsci classmates, or that I hadn't spent all that money for reading. Most of the readings weren't even used.more

Just one thing to say: REPORTING! *coughs* BS *coughs*

negativePOLSC 14

Daming reporting tapos lagi na lang may make-up class, huhu! :((

Puro reports, parang tamad magturo.

positivePOLSC 14

Mabait at matalino si sir, kaso madalas siyang wala. Puro reporting, tapos dahil madalas walang nagbabantay, wala ring makikinig sa report mo (kahit classmates mo), kaya di ka na mag-eeffort. Mas marami sanang matututunan kung lagi siyang andyan.more

Actuallhy kahit masama mga review niya, di ko mapagkakailang marami akong natutunan sa kanya on more practical matters about Philippine politics. Pati magaganda yung readings na inassign niya. Yun nga lang puro report sa huli and generic (?) yung grade naming lahatmore

Magaling si Sir Rye.

Sobrang chill ni sir sa class. After 2 lessons, lahat na ng nasa syllabus irereport nalang. Hindi masyadong nagtuturo bukod sa minsang pagsingit niya sa mga nagrereport. Busy si sir sa admin work kaya laging wala lol. Attendance, pass all requirements especially his extra credit requirements for a more possible uno.more

You will learn mostly from the readings (actually read them because they are good) and some from his lectures/insights. Most of the meetings are for reportings. There are a couple of papers you have to do but I guess the overall experience comes from your groupmates. Find good group mates and the work will be ez and fun.more

I took him despite some of the comments made of him. I took his class and learned a lot!! He is a great teacher but his lectures are only useful if you read his readings. Magaling si Prof Rye and inspiring sya na teacher. Just be prepared for a lot of requirementsmore

positiveSTS

I had few expectations for a large class like STS. But I learned a lot from the style of Prof Rye!! He is one one of the best teachers i have had. His perspective is of the social sciences which i appreciates. His class has a lot of requirements but they are all group. I learned a lot from his class.more

Di ako informed na STS stands for Sleeping Through Science. Very chill! Natulog lang ako sa klase niya. Madalas absent si sir, busy sa admin work. Throughout the sem students ang magrereport tapos magsisingit nalang siya ng info. One group report, One group term paper and final exam. keri niyo 'tomore

positiveSTS

(1/2) The chillest of the chill. First 3 discussions are from him, then halos absent siya the rest of the sem kasi marami siyang gagawin hahaha puro reporting. Sipagan nyo yan kasi he will comment and add to the info you present. Pass all requirements, and DO THE EXTRA CREDIT for that uno.more

positiveSTS

(2/2) Study well for his exam. That exam and the extra credit makes a big difference whether you get a 1.25 or 1.75. Don't believe other people when they say "STS lang yan". Trust me, sobrang dali ang exam niya and you'll really wish you studied for it when you take itmore

positiveSTS

Group report + group term paper + final exam. Chill class overall. Legit, everyone's usually on their phones or asleep. Although Sir does have some interesting insights and teaches well. Study for the exam and do the extra credit to get that uno.more

positiveSTS

Disappointed on how this class was handled. Just a few lectures discussed by sir which is just one long ppt, the rest of the sem are student reports. Required attendance, 1 reflection paper (group), 1 final exam, 1 final group paper. Chill. High standards tho. Gave a lot of effort for this class, only got 1.5, idk how sir came up with his grading.more

take this class marami lang readings pero chill and easy af

Sir Rye is so incredibly kind. I will always commend a teacher for kindness because frankly not all teachers have that. Sir Rye is so precious, he's some kind of genius because he knows so much and when he lectures he doesn't even have notes. He just says stuff from his head, without stuttering, in a clear lay out and never misses a beat (1/2)more

positiveSTS

He has this self-depreciating humor considering the reputation of STS classes, but he really does care about what he's trying to deliver. He has so much love for our country and UP and understands us as students. I learned a damn lot from him, about technology and our country (2/2)more

Ang hassle ng class na 'to. Ang boring din. Hanap kayo ng ibang prof na mas mabait magbigay ng grade. 'Yung feeling na ginawa mo na lahat pero wala pa rin. Hindi mo deserve 'yung makukuha mong grade sa kanya. Report, Term paper, exam, extra credit pakulo niyang wala namang bearing. Basta... save yourselfmore

neutralSTS

Alam mong matalino talaga si Sir Rye and magaling siya magexplain ng concepts. Pero yun na nga yung problema eh. Sana siya na lang ang nagtuturo instead na puro reporting lang. Basta magpasa ng lahat ng requirements pati extra work. Pasadahan mo lang yung slides pag exam na, makakasagot ka pa rin. Multiple choice naman eh.more

negativeSTS

Boring and mababa magbigay for sts. feeling super important, wow, taas standards, parang gustong magpaboard exam.

negativeSTS

Report is life. Low grades is lifer.

negativeSTS

daig niya pa majors ko sa baba magbigay ng grades. save yourself

negativeSTS

magpaspeaker na lang kasi. taas pa grades.

Maganda yung discussion sa class kasi ginagamit niya si Heywood sa Philippine context. chill lang class. Nakaka bother lang na lagi niyang pinapalo yung mesa kasunod ng line na "Are you guys listening?" Mga 4-6 times per meeting. Saks lang requirements, saks lang din mag grade.more

positivePOLSCI 11

He somewhat requires you to read the chapters but low key knows that nobody actually reads them. Sir Rye is knowledgeable and really knows what he's teaching. He makes you be more aware of the current news and events related to the lessons. One of the greatest professors in UP! A bit intimidating especially during recitations.more

I'd rather take Pilapils class kesa dito. Magtatawag ng class beadles pero gagawin niya lang talagang alalay mga estudyante. Ew. Just no.
