Psych 124C with Professor Clewett as a great experience. He puts a lot of emphasis on learning the material instead of just learning it for exams (which there are 0 of) and that's something not many professors do.

You take a quiz once a week and they are solely based on that weeks material. There's 2 blog assignments which were easy and one final essay which was a little time consuming but very rewarding and fun if you're into research. There are 0 exams.

Professor Clewett makes the class engaging (in-person) and really makes you excited about memory. Thanks for making one of my last psych classes so enjoyable professor!

This class was fascinating, and I enjoyed Prof Clewett's engaging lecture style. He gave many in-class demos to demonstrate various theories and paradigms used in memory research. The work outside of lectures included: weekly quizzes (takes <15min), 2 blogposts (3pg casual scientific articles which you get to pick the topic for), and 1 final research paper. The research paper is probably the only rather difficult part of this class since it is an 7-8 pg paper and you have to pick your own topic, think of your own research study, and write a proposal on it. I found this challenging since you kind of have to start from scratch and research until you have a general understanding of where the field is at before you even pick what your study will test, so it was very time consuming. BUT having no midterms/final makes up for it. Overall, I would recommend taking this class: enjoyed lectures, work wasn't too bad, learned a lot.
