Fox is a pretty good professor for this class. They are really understandable and has a really lenient grading system along with the participation/attendance requirements.GAME1110 2026-01-12 03:07:41 +0000 UTC
I absolutely loved Fox. They are by far one of the best professors I have ever had, and probably ever will have. Gets to know the students very well and genuinely cares. Graded mostly on effort so an easy A but they still push you to put your best into each project. All the projects were so fun and great portfolio pieces.GAME2500 2022-02-10 02:13:29 +0000 UTC
Unreasonable grading. Ridiculous. Type of class if you end up having bad teammates, you cooked.GAME1110 2026-01-09 21:36:39 +0000 UTC
Loved this class and this prof. Fox is a super dope and interesting person who grades very generously but also gives constructive and useful feedback. There was some reading early in the year but it was never mandatory to participate in class discussions. Soon you get into group projects, which can easily become valuable portfolio pieces.GAME2500 2021-12-11 01:50:50 +0000 UTC
I never went to class and ended with an A+. She's super nice and everyone loves her. Her classes are either interesting lectures about games, playtesting (playing games), or making you go on a field trip to a museum! HIGHLY recommend taking her.GAME1110 2024-12-05 21:10:13 +0000 UTC
Awesome.GAME1110 2022-09-22 02:00:33 +0000 UTC
Fox was absolutely an amazing Professor, 100% recommend taking a class with them if the opportunity is there. Throughout the semester there were readings then lectures/discussions based on the readings. The readings were never too difficult and they were always understanding if other classes got in the way. They always gave amazing feedback too:)GAME1110 2022-01-14 02:36:02 +0000 UTC
