She was very nice and presented information really well. An easy class to take for whatever major you are, but easy to not understand the content and do badly if you don't do the work or attend lectures, and sometimes the class is boring. However, she is very well informed in her field, and she provides a lot of feedback or help if you ask her, so there's no reason for you to have a bad grade. |

overall -took this class fall 2024 -i took this class to fulfill a credit for my major. the lectures were mind numbingly boring so I'd always do work for another class while she was talking. -the class was made up of reading quizzes, several small "research" design papers, a midterm, and a final. the workload wasn't overwhelming but just felt like a bunch of busy work recommendation/heads up -for my professor we had to do an in class activity every single class. which got kind of irritating over time because they would feel pointless or take a while to do. -do the extra credit assignments when they come. they are easy. -you pretty much have to come to class since there are in-class activities every class -if you use the study guide she gives/make your own and practice the concepts you'll be fine -make a friend or 2 in the class. it will make doing the in-class activities so much easier. |

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. |
