Summer 2025 - Class is overall pretty easy if you just pay attention to what she is saying in lecture. Though she has readings, the actual information you need to know for her midterm (in terms of topics referenced only in books) is all mentioned in lecture for you to know. The midterm is a bit long, took me around 1.5 hours to finish, it is all short answer with 6 questions and multiple parts. A lot of this class is based on having an opinion and backing it up with reason from the text. There is a final project at the end. As long as you answer all the questions she lays out in the instructions you will easily get an A. I did not really do much of the readings, I just made sure to pay attention in lecture (not recorded) and take noted. I know some people who just had an AI tool transcribe the lecture and summarize it for them, this also works but you miss the aspects of actual critically thinking.
