Professor Maki seems very well educated in her field, and the class is not super hard overall. The mandatory daily in class assignments did seem a bit much to me, especially knowing that none of them would be dropped at the end of the semester. Exams are okay, and they are open note, but I still ended up getting around upper 70's on them. I believe that Professor Maki is a great professor, but there are definately adjustments that could be made to make this class even better.

I came into this class expecting a relatively easy class with some readings and discussions. But Professor Maki is genuinely the most pressed graduate student I've ever met in my life. When asked to explain a concept or instruction (because she writes them in a way that makes it feel like you are reading Shakespeare), she doesn't provide help or elaboration. She is a no nonsense type of professor and even the short readings are super confusing and hard to read.

Professor Maki is great! My only complaint is that a lot of her course feels like busy work. However, most of the assignments and exams are pretty easy. Definitely an easy A+ and a great course!

I cannot say enough good things about her she is a terrific teacher. This class is extremely easy and I definitely recommend taking it with her. She lectures well explains the concepts and gives you time during class with the people around you. There are reading reflections 1-2 times a week with some small assignments but literally, the class will not take you more than an hour to do the work. The exams are open notes and basically just about explaining the concepts and how they relate to each other so there are no right or wrong answers. It's a fairly enjoyable class and pretty interesting.
