This course consisted of many review question videos, which were graded based on accuracy, two midterm projects with your lab partner that required creativity and a solid foundation of knowledge that which you can apply to respond to a question, weekly peer mentoring sessions, and exams. The exams in this course are challenging, but the knowledge you become equipped with to reason out some of the questions is super impressive. Grading on all assignments is super fair, and Professor Crocker is always willing to help you out in office hours. The hour-long peer mentoring meetings on top of the 3 hrs. lecture & lab can seem like a lot at first, but you quickly get used to incorporating this into your schedule. I learned so much in this course, and Prof. Crocker does a great job challenging you while providing you with the resources to apply your knowledge to that challenge.

Crocker is very nice and understanding, and knows the material thoroughly, but her lectures can be convoluted. Her exams can be difficult, but she gives partial credit generously and grades very fairly. The lab is very straightforward, and there is only one lab report.

Crocker was chill. Very accommodating and definitely likes what she teaches. The course had a lot of weekly assignments, though, but she is pretty chill if you communicate with her. I recommend it to anyone
