I went into Anthro 2 thinking, "hey, archaeology has a reputation for being boring, but I bet it'll be interesting because we're at UCLA."
Wrong. Nope. Most boring class I've been in in a long time. I went to class almost every day, but I could absolutely not pay any attention to the lecture for more than 5 minutes. I had to Bruincast (thank god for that) every single lecture and take notes before the exams.
Grade breakdown for Anthro 2 with Schachner:
2, four page essays = 15% each, graded by the TA, not hard
3 multiple choice exams = 20% each (not hard if you pay attention in class - everything comes from the lecture, but his slides aren't too fantastic) -- no "final" exam.
10% = going to discussion (discussion was boring and useless, but you gotta go for the attendance grade)
Two 4-5 page papers required. Pretty easy to write. Exams are kind of tricky, make sure to know the overall subject matter and you'll be okay. Lectures are Bruincasted, so you don't really have to go. Discussion is worth points. I never read a single reading assigned and still got an A.
I would say that his lectures would be really dry if you aren't interested in what he was talking about. I was kinda interested, so they were okay. Overall, is a decent GE to take.
