Sadly, the prof left towards the end of the term on sick leave & was replaced by someone w a totally different approach to the material. Prof Brayton was funny, enthusiastic, & selected memorable clips appropriate to course topics. Would highly recommend her whenever she returns to teach this class again.
Hated this professor. Despite doing well at the end of it, the course description was misleading and the class not what I expected - and Professor Brayton was even worse. Cancelled many classes, provided unclear instructions for her assignments, marked unfairly as a result and took up class time talking about her personal life. AVOID at all costs.
BEST prof I've had so far. Interesting, helpful, easiest midterms and exams. Attendance is mandatory but fun anyways.
If you're looking for an easy A, take the other prof or take this class online. The essays you have to write are confusing and instructions and clarification from prof and TA did not make it any easier to write. I attended every lecture and they were decent but I have no idea what I was supposed to take from the class. DO NOT TAKE IF YOU WANT AN A.
If you like anything pop culture, then you will enjoy this class. The essay was a bit difficult as you had to do an outline and annotated bibliography. However, the examples in class are always good and relevant and the midterms are quite easy. Overall, good class.
Unclear on grades and too wordy for directions on essays. Not focused in class discussion therefore goes off topic and a lot of time. alot of examples of entertainment without any relevance to sociology or using terminology. Class was frustrating and very dragged out , no structure and exam heavy on content and terms never covered
Shes an awesome proff, very helpful and funny. I recommend it. She uses the funniest examples in class
Very nice, understanding and helpful professor. Class is interesting although some of the lectures could get a bit dull. Essay marking was slightly hard, but was given very good and helpful comments on the essay proposal. Easy tests and tutorials are very helpful. Textbook necessary.
Hard essay marker, but not a bad class :)
Awesome prof, one of my best and I received the highest grade from this class out of the others I took this semester. Paying attention in class is helpful and attending the mandatory tutorials are good too because you get 10 EASY marks by doing so!
