Dr. Stanica is a lovely professor, you can tell she is very knowledgable and knows how to make information digestible. The course requires you to read often but it is worth it as the material is sufficient enough to complete assignments thoroughly. She is very kind and offers good feedback in a timely manner. Great first course to take!PPUA6506 2024-11-12 00:32:57 +0000 UTC
Stanica uses old lectures, videos, and current literature to "teach" her course. It is asynchronous besides two guest lectures. She doesn't provide much context for assignments so you'll have to ask a lot of questions. Since this is a foundational course, I was disheartened that the course functions as a "teach yourself" class.PPUA6506 2024-09-10 21:01:40 +0000 UTC
