Spring 2021 - I really enjoyed this class with Professor Heise, because she is genuinely passionate about these topics. There were 5 assignments we had to do in total, and none of them were difficult in my opinion. She also offered extensions to students if they needed it. The discussion sections were pretty laid back and at least with my TA (Samantha), we did a lot of activities related to the content we talked about in class. There was a lot of material to cover and sometimes I felt a bit overwhelmed, but we would always discuss the readings in class, so if you didn't get a chance to finish everything before the lecture you'd still cover the main ideas. One of the things I really enjoyed about the class is that Professor Heise would give us a variety of media to study, not just books to read (we had graphic novels, podcasts, movies, short films, etc.). She is a clear and engaging lecturer, and she makes sure to take enough time to fully explain concepts. I would highly recommend this class!

Winter 2019 - Professor Heise's lectures had a good balance between discussion and lecture. She posted her slides after class and the concepts weren't difficult to grasp. We had around four smaller assignments and a large group project but the topics were all posted ahead of time so the workload was spread out well throughout the quarter.
