This class essentially consisted of coming in, sitting down, and listening to him speak for the entirety of the class about various news articles or social media posts. There were absolutely no rubrics, no details for the assignments, no explanation of concepts, no feedback on grades, and an extremely bare canvas page that expanded on nothing. In order to know how to do an assignment you basically have to piece together bits of information that he mention for 30 seconds at the beginning or end of class. He will help with assignments if you ask, but what would be even more beneficial than just watching him do your qualtrics for you or code for you would be explaining what is actually going on, what he expects etc. The content is easy, but. the absolute absence of directions and rubrics makes this class a pain. |

If you want to learn anything useful, take another class. Content is not hard but he does not know how to explain or expand on any of the concepts. No rubrics for assignments and no feedback on the grades given. |

I loved Professor Calvo's class - but it is nothing like any other government class you've likely taken. There's a focus on survey methodology and political psychology in this class, so get ready to explore big concepts like network theory and Qualtrics. Expect little coding, but what code you will have to do is mostly independent work. One minor gripe: no rubrics in sight in this class, but Calvo's a lenient grader so that wasn't an issue for me. |
