This class was not very hard but extremely interesting, and made better because this professor really cares about her students. The material is really interesting and she makes an effort to answer any question you have!

Get a good group for the group work portion.

Probably one of my favorite courses I've taken at UW so far. Interactive approaches to typical lectures using lots of group discussion time (in a way that isn't boring) and a fun group project that takes up most of the quarter. Not a super hard class in terms of content and mastery, and the grading scale is easy to exploit or work around.

Amy Ko did a really good job teaching this class, and there was a surprisingly high amount of online student engagement. She cares about her students and their well-being, which can be seen by her sending out surveys each day to serve as a check-in and making sure nobody is left behind.

Ask for as much help/feedback of your projects from your TA, as they're the one grading them.
