• FYI: in case anyone might be confused like I was, this course is not about LGBTQ+ sexuality, it's about sexual behaviours & sexual deviance/offences. Some of the course content might be triggering for some as it touches upon serious and violent sex offences (e.g., rape, pedophilia, etc).
  I took this course online in F21 with Allison Chenier. Course breakdown was: 2 discussion posts (15% each = 30% total), midterm (30%), and essay (40%). Since this was an online course, lecture videos + ppt slides were posted every week and students were responsible for staying up-to-date with them. There were required readings each week; I didn't keep up with them consistently tbh, but you'll need to do…

• Overrated, not a lot of stuff you can make up on marks with. Content is easy but quite disturbing. Marking is done entirely by TA’s, it’s rare the professor marks something themselves. Professor Chénier is really kind though quite engaging and understanding. But if you want 90+ i do not recommend this course. Rubrics also either not there or missing.

• I LOVE this course. The topics are super interesting ranging from discussions of p*rnography, institutional sexual offending, juvenile offenders, pedophilia and others. If you need a course with less week-to-week work to make your term more manageable, I would recommend this. The entire course consisted of a midterm worth 30%, a written assignment worth 30% and a final exam worth 40%. A total of three markables!
  Dr. Chenier is one of my all-time favourite professors as well. She makes the course fun!

• Not only is the material super easy to follow and understand, this class is only enjoyable because of Professor Allison. I had her online during covid and utterly wanted to be a student of her in-person class, so I enrolled in this course without knowing what it was about, primarily because I saw her name. I am sure you will already know 90% of what she will teach because it is all common sense and things you've already talked about in previous classes. If you've had her before, you'd know she is an INCREDIBLY easy marker. Just showing up and taking good notes, you'll get a 95% easily. I think at the end of the day, all she does is want to see her students succeed. She is very passionate…
