Student Reports
How hard is the A?
A is doable but not automatic
The signal here is more do-the-work-and-you-should-be-fine than easy-A chatter. Students do not describe the A as automatic, but the evidence also does not paint grading as punishing.
Homework Load
Moderate homework load
Homework load looks moderate. The recurring signal is steady weekly work, but not a course that turns every assignment into a grind.
Lecture Load
Lighter lecture burden
Student comments describe this as more discussion-, seminar-, or workshop-driven than lecture-dependent. The lecture burden itself does not sound like the main source of friction.
Strengths
• Students repeatedly say the course teaches something concrete, whether that is content mastery, research skill, or a strong foundation.
• Discussion is a clear strength; students repeatedly describe the class conversation as engaging and useful.
Tradeoffs
• Difficulty runs high even when comments do not settle on one dominant complaint.

I developed translation skills, presentation skills, and knowledge about the overall Korean society that I hadn't known before.
Spring 2024 · Kim, Hae-Young
I learned about various social issues in South Korea which aren’t obvious to international audiences. I learned how to approach these issues with an outside perspective informed by South Korean society. I also learned how to write analytical items in Korean in a more effective way.
