I love Professor Moe! She truly cares about her students and tries to make online seminars engaging. She makes sure everyone gets a chance to talk during class, and gives encouraging compliments. Content-wise, we watched The Plot Against America (a mini series), Get Out, and the Blackkklansman, which we were asked to write two essays on. The writing homework due before class usually took me less than 1 hour. Overall, the workload is fair and manageable. One thing to keep in mind is that politics and social justice play a huge part in class discussions and essays, so think twice if you're not that into politics.

I really liked professor Moe. We read the Handmaid's Tale along with a couple other stories. The readings aside from the novel were a fairly interesting and added perspective to what the main ideas of the book were. The class was very well designed holistically, and the final essay wasn't much of an issue with regards to formulating a thesis and backing it with citation. I'm not sure what other ENGCOMP3 classes are like, but this one is worth taking if you've got to get the GE out of the way.
Do the readings, don't cram the essays. It's like any other English class.

Loved the class! Professor Moe really knew how to incorporate everyone into discussions and challenge our ideas in her written and spoken feedback!

Hi everyone! This class is very interesting and productive. As a freshman student, it was easy to adapt and pass the class. Professor Moe is engaged with her students and expects everyone to participate in the weekly meetings. This quarter we had the theme of Art of Resistance, which mainly involve watching three films. For the most part, you read several articles and write a 200-300 word summary. There is a midterm and final paper, which is very important for your grade. If you do good on those two papers, then you pass the class. Here is the Grading Percentages:
Paper 1: 30%
Paper 2: 50%
Homework essays/Participation: 10%

Good Luck!

Class Review
I basically just took this class for the GE credits, but I would definitely recommend Prof. Moe and her classes to anyone out there looking for an engaging class with a passionate teacher. The class overall is what you would expect: an english class with reading assignments, group projects, and papers. However, what may differentiate this class with another english class would be Prof. Moe; as a teacher, Prof. Moe looks after every one of her students, looking to improve their understanding through her lectures or in-class discussions. She sometimes makes mistakes on small things like how far in the novel we are, or assigning the wrong set of reading homework, but those are negligible mistakes that the class simply laughs off. As a STEM major, I would be lying if I fully enjoyed every single day in that class, but I do admit that it could have been much worse had it not been for Prof. Moe.

I am not a huge fan of english classes in general, so when I realized that I had to take English Comp 3 I dreaded it. I took Dr. Moe because of her great bruinwalk reviews and her nice grading curve. I'm so glad I took this class as I think I would've struggled with anyone else. There is homework due every class but its a mere 200-300 words to which she gives you some questions to answer in response to some reading. I really enjoyed the way she gave us these 200-300 word assignments twice a week instead of writing essays. This was less dreadful but still useful for developing my skills. Participation was worth 20%, so as long as you said a couple things each class (even if you were just asking questions because you were confused), you would get full credit. The homework was worth 30% which was easy enough to get full credit for since each piece of HW is worth like 3 points and is essentially graded on completion. I can't remember the actual criteria for the HW but it was something along: reaching the word count, answering the questions, and showing that you read the articles (VERY EASY TO DO). Then 10% of the grade comes from the draft of the final essay, and 40% comes from the final draft of the essay. I HATE writing essays and struggled with this one, but despite doing average (89% on draft, and 83% on final), I still managed to get an A. Dr. Moe is super nice and really tries her best to make class engaging. She even brought donuts the first day of class!

I really liked this class! It is very heavy in both class participation and writing, but grading isn't too harsh on most assignments. Attendance is mandatory, but our class discussions were always engaging. I have no negatives to say about the class other than there was a quick turnaround with the assignment deadlines. Overall, I liked the class a lot and I think it helped improve my writing as well.

Selling required material! In brand-new shape - no marks or folds at all.
Course Reader: $50 (originally $65)
Signs of Resistance by Bonnie Siegler: $5
EDIT: both sold
This class has two parts: first few weeks are focused on events of national memory, while the second part is focused on the theme resistance through the miniseries The Plot Against America, which your paper analyzes as well. To be honest I'm not a fan of politics, but this class was manageable and I learnt a lot. Class participation counts toward your grade, but as long as you read the material and do some critical thinking and talk it's fine. Professor Moe is really nice and cares about including everybody in learning. For the final paper, read the rough draft comments carefully, go to the writing center (really helpful) and you should be fine. I would say that the homework is heavier compared to other writing classes but grading is generous (full marks as long as you show effort). To be concise, don't cram, put some effort into this class (it is 5 credits), be attentive to feedback, and it'll be a good quarter.

Professor Moe is super interesting. While others were taking Shakespeare or fairytale-themed classes, ours was about 9/11 and white supremacy. So, class was definitely engaging and thought provoking.
She is a great teacher, and knows how to assign work that will further your understanding of the concepts.
The only issue is that the workload is a bit much for a 5.0 unit ENGCOMP class. She asks for two short essays a week, that aren't very hard to write. The hard part is getting through the readings she assigns. The articles are often long and tedious to unpack. Although they are interesting, I was putting more effort into this class than my STEM ones.

tldr; take the class, she's a good professor and is helpful. you can get an A easily.
caveats: be prepared for some reading and a short essay twice a week.

The course reader had very interesting articles. Professor Moe always engaged with students, asking us to discuss with our peers and have larger group discussions as well. There are two small essay questions a week, as well as two large papers based on the reading and viewing homework. She is very eager to help students that ask for it. More than just an English class, 100% recommend.
