Comment:
This professor is so disorganized which made getting grades back at a reasonable time impossible. This professor loves group projects but doesn't grade them until the last day of the semester. Also, he grades based on vague criteria and does not give feedback to help you in the next projects.

Comment:
Professor Bailey Van Kuren is a nice guy and care so much about the course. He's nice and easy to talk to, however the set up of the course could get confusing. Its mainly group projects and is a big chunk of your grade so if you don't like group work, don't take this class. The class was easy enough to do well but attendance and effort is required

Comment:
Professor Bailey Van-Kuren truly cares about the course and about his students. The course itself was VERY project heavy so make sure you have free time outside of class to work on those with your groups. I enjoyed the class and the opportunities to be creative, but grading criteria was not always clear.

Really enjoyed this class and this professor. He's funny and adds insight to whatever you're working on. The grades are mostly in-class work, with a quiz or two every week. No exams.

Comment:
There is homework like watching TED Talks that are easy. Class becomes really boring most times, especially at the beginning of the semester. At the end, most classes you will be working on group projects: they will make you do stage by stage the way they want but it is easy and if you follow it you'll get a good grade. Take it for fine arts credit

Comment:
AVOID THIS CLASS - huge time waster! Co-taught with Todd Stuart. Professors contradicted each other, course was extremely unorganized, poorly paced, and uninformative. Lectures were very boring - just a repeat of the material from readings/videos assigned for homework. Most of your grade draws from assignments related to an awful group project.
