If you behave, ask questions, do your work, and show some interest in the subject, she is a great teacher. She takes no nonsense, however, so don't expect to breeze by her.

Pretty easy as long as you did well in Ling101. She can sometimes be nasty but for the most part she's not bad at all. The class is very well rounded, with weekly homeworks, pop quizzes, and three exams. Semester is broken up into phonology, morphology, and syntax. Shouldn't be hard for a ling/cogsci major to get at least a B+/A-

Comment:
Such an easy class - if you took LING101 you can take this with your eyes closed. Vogel tends to over-elaborate on some slides in powerpoints and the class drags when she does. However, she knows what she's talking about and always answers questions when they're asked. Just don't challenge her - even if you're right, you're wrong.

Class is somewhat interesting. She really cares about linguistics. *Try to get a TA who speaks English as a first language!!

Comment:
The lectures are extremely helpful and clear. I attended every one and barely needed to study for the tests. The discussions are a waste of time generally, although thats where attendance is taken. My TA (Lan Kim) was more frustrating than helpful. There is a ton of extra credit. 2 tests total but most of the grade is from homework.

Easiest class ever. As long as you keep up with the homework and go to lecture, you are sure to get an A. Lots of extra credit opportunities to bring your grade up too

Comment:
The lectures with her are very boring, but the TAs really help you to understand the material during discussion. I found the class quite easy and interesting, but the later half was quite boring. The tests are just like the homeworks. 30% midterm, 30% final, 30% hmwk, 10% participation... nothing really to worry about.

I didn't think the class was that bad. The slides she used has all the notes you need for her tests and hw, and the discussion section works on the same kind of problems as the the assigned hw. Only thing I thought was weird were the 2 discussion q. we needed to send the TA the day before discussion which were never really answered.

Comment:
Words cannot describe how utterly stupid and pointless this class is. The teacher is boring and focuses on the most useless information. Watch out they think their subject should be a science.Its ridic.I don't know how anyone could dedicate their lives to the trivial pursuit of transcribing words and drawing language trees.Avoid like the plague

Lectures and discussion sections are equally boring. Pay attention because the course moves quickly and the tests and homework can be tricky.

If you like the material, you will do well. Type out her notes and read along in class. Her notes are helpful and outline the test material well. Tests can be a little tricky...but study and you should get an A. She is very helpful if you go to her with a positive attitude about the subject.

Pay attention in disc.b/c that is where you will learn everything thats on the exams. You only get one hw assignment per week, and if u split it up with your group members then it comes down to each person doing only ONE problem. So not a lot of work if u divide it up like u are supposed to!

Boring lectures. Don't go to them, just print out the notes. The discussions aren't helpful either, I learned all the material myself just from doing the homework, which is collected every lecture.
