One of my favourite courses in my undergrad! Carrie is such an amazing prof. Shes extremely passionate about her field and is so so so nice. To be honest, her marking is seems really easy. The class is very discussion focused which is exactly what i like. Lots of group work and seminar-esque class discussion that makes the content engaging and good environment to learn.
