Please write ONE GOOD takeaway you got from each presentation and include a cute or funny or informative GIF or MEME.

710901 — 2024-02-23 19:17:57 UTC

No curves in the grading system and make-up tests are usually more difficult than the actual exam.

735568 — 2024-02-23 19:18:08 UTC

They are all very confident and direct when explaining their slides and do not stutter much

Tests

2024-02-23 19:19:08 UTC

I learned that for this class the 3 tests you take are very important and determine 60% of your grade. -Jocelyn S

Easy to understand

2024-02-23 19:19:41 UTC

UC BERKELEY

2024-02-23 19:21:10 UTC

It scared me that this is not even an English class but an Essay that would have to be written every single week. Attendance is also mandatory if you don't want to fall behind in class. -Erick M.

722209 — 2024-02-23 19:22:27 UTC

The classroom looks really nice and also the class can be hard to get too with the parking being near causing traffic so leaving earlier is smart.

Yaretzi Hernandez

2024-02-23 19:22:41 UTC

-The group did a nice job of not filling the presentation slides just full of text. They kept it down to bullet points

Throughout 30 weeks you will need to write 13 essays and attendance is mandatory, NO phones

711067_ — 2024-02-23 19:23:01 UTC

sofia Gonzlaez

710639_5 — 2024-02-23 19:23:15 UTC

Their slides were very well formatted and had great information! Their presentation really opened my eyes to the difference between high school and college courses. you should always get to class early and not use your phone in class because it will be noted by your professor.

gisele contreras

2024-02-23 19:23:21 UTC

It's important to pay attention in class and attendance is mandatory. It's also advised to get to class early because the lecture hall is by public parking lots filled with a lot of car and foot traffic.

Evan Cabrera Per 3

2024-02-23 19:24:06 UTC

I learned that just a few exams can determine your grade and how horrible parking can be at college.

UC Berkeley -Brenda T.

2024-02-23 19:24:08 UTC

I learned that almost every week you will need to write an essay and in total of 13 weeks you will need to provide 13 essays. And how most grades are based on what you get on your exams.

Miguel

2024-02-23 19:24:59 UTC

I liked how they explained their whole presentation especially the grading portion. Just seems hard to comprehend how 3 exams determine 60 percent of your grade.

Lucas Davila

2024-02-23 19:25:22 UTC

I learned that test are worth more than half of your grade.

Fabio Ramirez

7160113 — 2024-02-23 19:25:34 UTC

You will have to write 13 essays and about 60% of your grades depend on 3 tests. There are no curves and there is mandatory attendance.

Berkeley Psych.

2024-02-23 19:25:54 UTC

This class requires 13 essays in a span of 13 weeks!

UC BERKELEY

7357051 — 2024-02-23 19:26:19 UTC

I learned homework requires is having to do thirty pages and requires participation from students also that psych teaches them the theories and having early classes is better to have rather then later because there would be foot and driving traffic and attendance is mandatory for all classes

2024-02-23 19:26:29 UTC

Getting to class early is recommended. Foot and car traffic is heavy near the building. -Em Moreno

Alexis Alvarez

2024-02-23 19:27:13 UTC

I loved how confident they were whole giving their presentation. Good job!

Great

2024-02-23 19:27:13 UTC

Very informative about the campus to maneuver through it easily

Andrew Mera

2024-02-23 19:27:56 UTC

I leaned that they have no curve, test are more than half the grade, and that the amount of essays you do can’t change your grade even if you do all of them. Better get to studying 😘

Alexis Alvarez

2024-02-23 19:33:03 UTC

late work is not accepted, and you're only allowed three missed reading responses. I also loved how they gave so much information and were very confident in speaking.

Evan Cabrera Per 3

2024-02-23 19:34:16 UTC

In Creative writing class you want make sure you only publish your work on Canvas because if you share it with someone it becomes public domain unless you have copy rights to it

gisele contreras

2024-02-23 19:34:24 UTC

Your final contains a rewritten poem, story, and a 5-8 page essay. This is all content you come up with yourself. You should also turn in your assignments about 1 week early in order to get it critiqued in time for the actual deadline.

You have to turn in a assignment a week before its due to be considered on time.

711067_ — 2024-02-23 19:35:46 UTC

$$$

7101032 — 2024-02-23 19:35:57 UTC

the cost of textbooks and studying materials can add up to 1500 dollars

CREATIVE WRITING

7357051 — 2024-02-23 19:35:58 UTC

I like how text books are not always required because it does seem like a hassle to get every book that you need to understand the class and to have the money is another thing sometimes just aint it

Miguel

2024-02-23 19:35:58 UTC

Per semester at NYU with textbooks and everything else included you are looking at $1300 per semester. I liked how they presented everything and explained everything well.

Diego Carrillo

2024-02-23 19:36:03 UTC

I didn't realize how many stories you have to come up with. Also you have to use a good amount of different types of writing like poems and fiction stories.

Intro to Creative Writing NYU- alia s.

-I love how colorful and detailed the presentation itself was

-I think it's cool how big the class collaboration is. As a writer myself, it's always nice to share my ideas.

2024-02-23 19:37:59 UTC

I didn’t know some professors only check their emails during their office hours - Lenetta

735568 — 2024-02-23 19:38:26 UTC

It is very useful get help from office hours, workshops and opinions of you peers to get you work/assignments into your best work

Lucas Davila

2024-02-23 19:39:25 UTC

The cost of books can be up to $1500.

Taleyah Oporta

2024-02-23 19:39:46 UTC

The books are expensive and can cost up to $1500 per semester. That's good that they are not usually required.

NYU

2024-02-23 19:41:16 UTC

Office are usually through the week from 9 Am till 5. You can turn in your work a week before when it's due to consider it as on time because you still have to critique your work. - Erick M.

2024-02-23 19:41:23 UTC

speaking in front of peers is a requirement for participation grade. -Em Moreno

710140_2 — 2024-02-23 19:41:26 UTC

4-6 page long essays along with poems sound like a lot of work. Also, the fact that you have to turn in your assignments early sounds stressful. - Daniel Munoz

Workshops

2024-02-23 19:41:33 UTC

I learned that there is a participation grade for this class so you need to talk a lot in front of others which makes it hard for introverts. -Jocelyn S

Andrew Mera

2024-02-23 19:41:59 UTC

People can plagiarize you work if you sent it to them without the use of Canvas. Canvas protects you from plagiarism. When getting to class it’s best to use an Uber or scooter to get around the campus, really packed in New York 😭

Intro to Creative Writing-Brenda T.

2024-02-23 19:42:42 UTC

Something interesting that I learned is that for the final essay every day that it's late, your grade will lower by one degree/grade. Some of the prices may vary from $35 up to $100 for textbooks. You will have a workshop every week, a total of 4 a month to build on your writing.

Intro to Creative Writing

2024-02-23 19:43:13 UTC

You would have to turn in assignments before it is due because you would have workshops on it with peers.

-Alondra

Sofia Gonzalez

710639_5 — 2024-02-23 19:45:38 UTC

fiction workshops and poetry workshops alternate through weeks. your work is always being critiqued by peers. Doctors notes are needed when absent.

difference between hs & college

7102211 — 2024-02-28 19:50:19 UTC

you will be responsible for yourself and you won't have a parent to guide you! your professors don't really tell you what you can't or can do, therefore, you're able to skip class, be on your phone, eating and many more.

Miguel

2024-02-28 19:50:56 UTC

When in college you have to be on top of everything. No one is there to help you on your schedule so it's important to be on top of all of your tasks.

You're on your own

7101032 — 2024-02-28 19:51:47 UTC

In college, you're responsible for yourself; that means you need to wake up early and arrive on time to class, cook for yourself, time manage, and finance.

gisele contreras

2024-02-28 19:51:55 UTC

It's up to you to make enough time for yourself to complete assignemnts and get to school on time. No one is holding you accountable for not going to class, it's your education and your money. Final exams are the most important in your classes.

Lenetta

2024-02-28 19:51:56 UTC

POV: if you failed a class in college

710901 — 2024-02-28 19:51:57 UTC

create a system that works for you, you get to create your OWN schedule so make it fit how you function!

Evan Cabrera

2024-02-28 19:52:04 UTC

Some takeaways from this presentation is that I can make my own schedule, no one cares if you skip, blow a grand per class, and have buy your own scantrons

722209 — 2024-02-28 19:52:46 UTC

Students have a lot of freedom and can be late to class or not even show up and no one to get in trouble with. But in the end, the only one who suffers and has the consequences is oneself, like falling behind and creating a bad habit.

Missing class

2024-02-28 19:53:05 UTC

I learned that missing class is not a big deal however because you pay for classes whenever you skip it is basically like you are throwing money away. - Jocelyn S

Sofia Gonzalez

710639_5 — 2024-02-28 19:53:32 UTC

a take away that I thought was important was the big jump in responsibility that you take on when you enter college. your parents are not involved in your schooling and you can make your days flexible to your liking. If you fail, its on you because of all the money involved.

Ingrid

2024-02-28 19:53:32 UTC

The difference from high school and college- I feel the part about the final essay or test being worth 50-75 percent of your grade is a big thing to know

2024-02-28 19:53:55 UTC

Final exams are worth a lot of your grade. Can tank your grade depending on how you're doing with other assignments. -Em Moreno

Differences between high school & college-Brenda T.

2024-02-28 19:55:28 UTC

You will be responsible for choosing your own schedule. Final exams are worth bigger chunks of your grade and are usually worth more than 10 or 15%.

Lucas Davila

2024-02-28 19:55:49 UTC

You can make your own schedule in college

710140_2 — 2024-02-28 19:56:07 UTC

This slide gave me a big reality check on how college is going to be a different world compared to high school. I am going to be responsible for everything in college and my grade is 100 percent determined on what I do.

Taleyah

2024-02-28 19:57:59 UTC

You need to make sure you are on top of your work and going to class. No one is there to push you, except yourself. It's up to you to pass your college classes.

Andrew Mera

2024-02-28 19:58:35 UTC

Tests in college can be up to 80 percent of your grade. We don't take tests as often so you better study! Study and watch yo grade

Diego Carrillo

2024-02-28 19:58:50 UTC

You have to use a lot of money for class. If you fail or get kicked out you're throwing money away to colleges.

Fabio Ramirez

7160113 — 2024-02-28 20:03:05 UTC

You have to create your own schedule and the professors don't care if you're in class or not. Final exams are worth a big part of your grade.

2024-02-28 20:04:02 UTC

Very helpful guide for understanding how classes will function with grades

German Aguilar

736504_1 — 2024-02-28 20:04:51 UTC

The group was very confident when speaking and I like how they gave information on late work as it is different to high school.

German Aguilar

736504_1 — 2024-02-28 20:05:35 UTC

There was little to no stuttering in their speech and made their information easy to understand.

Ingrid

your time use wisley

7357051 — 2024-02-28 20:07:55 UTC

in college you are responsible for the time you are using and putting it to the use of what you think is worth getting work done

Evan Cabrera

2024-02-28 20:08:30 UTC

POV:The required amount of reading per day. (They cost an arm and a leg)

722209 — 2024-02-28 20:09:04 UTC

Thats a lot of reading! and for only one class? I want to be able to have good time management but how is it possible with that much homework?

735568 — 2024-02-28 20:09:19 UTC

lectures maybe from the textbook, and are expected to understand the lessons

Diego Carrillo

2024-02-28 20:09:25 UTC

Two exams are 90% of your grade. Also good job on the slides I like how they set it up.

Homework

2024-02-28 20:09:26 UTC

There is a lot of homework assigned in this class like 8 pages which can make it hard to stay on top of other classes as well.- Jocelyn S

7102211 — 2024-02-28 20:11:13 UTC

textbooks can either be super pricey or not that pricey depending on how you want it! its better to save money or you'll be broke...

Andrew Mera

2024-02-28 20:11:23 UTC

Your grade is dependent on tests, 90 percent. 55 percent is based on your final exam and midterm is 35 percent. Better get to studying.

Harvard Stats Syllabus-Brenda T.

2024-02-28 20:11:57 UTC

For this class there is no late work policy however the class does have a 55% for the final exam. There are no textbooks required for the class because most of the material will be covered in class during lecture.

2024-02-28 20:12:10 UTC

Informative about project policies and prices for resources

710140_2 — 2024-02-28 20:12:11 UTC

The fact that 90 of your grade in a Harvard stats class is based on two exams is insane! However, group 4 slides were very detailed which was good.

Fabio Ramirez

7160113 — 2024-02-28 20:12:15 UTC

3 things determine your entire grade. With the midterm and the final making 90% of you're grade.

Textbooks are not required but are highly recommended. The professor has a textbook that will be referenced. -Em Moreno

Sofia Gonzalez

710639_5 — 2024-02-28 20:14:12 UTC

textbooks are specific towards each class.

Throughout the semester, expect many pop quizzes and difficult tests

Taleyah O

2024-02-28 20:15:45 UTC

The final exam is 55% and the midterm exam is 35%. The textbook is highly recommended, but not required and the cost is from $80-$170.

3 exams, 60% of your grade

Reading

736504_1 — 2024-02-28 20:16:01 UTC

You have to read about 20 pages per week! You also have to pay for a LOT of books.

735568 — 2024-02-28 20:16:03 UTC

Buying one book a week is crazy and expensive!

Miguel

2024-02-28 20:16:09 UTC

Your final grade is determined by 3 objectives such as quizzes, homework, and final exams.

Lenetta

2024-02-28 20:16:11 UTC

20 pages of reading A WEEK?

Lucas Davila

2024-02-28 20:16:18 UTC

You would need to buy 5 books just for that class.

Evan Cabrera

2024-02-28 20:16:26 UTC

POV:Professors trying to catch people who use Chat GPT

Purdue University

710901 — 2024-02-28 20:16:29 UTC

You are REQUIRED to purchase 5 textbooks which you WILL alternate reading weekly.

Andrew Mera

2024-02-28 20:16:46 UTC

The homework is worth more than that of a test. The only good thing about this class. I need 5 books, I’m gonna be broke and living on the streets with these books prices. They even got pop quizzes. 😭

Nick Nunez

2024-02-28 20:16:48 UTC

One takeaway is the requirements for textbooks which was a total of 5 textbooks, very informative

Ingrid

2024-02-28 20:17:15 UTC

Purdue university- exams worth 60% of grade and each day an assignment is late its a full letter grade down. You can be reading up to 20 pages a week! 5 books are required for this class!

You need to read 20 pages a week and buy 5 books for just that class.

710140_2 — 2024-02-28 20:19:05 UTC

Having to spend 500 dollars on books for a semester is crazy. And then having to write essays on the books too! Group 5 did an amazing job in their public speaking and very clear in their voices

722209 — 2024-02-28 20:19:14 UTC

Having to purchase 5 books for one class is a lot of money. Especially when other classes may also require one to buy books.

Purdue University-Brenda T.

2024-02-28 20:19:58 UTC

You're required to purchase 5 books and there's a book for each week. Which estimates to be about $400. You have to make an appointment for office hours.

2024-03-04 19:10:42 UTC

No late work, no extra credit, or no curves is so intense especially when only four tests are given for a regular U.S. History class

UC Berkeley-Brenda T.

2024-03-04 19:10:55 UTC

There's no late work policy and you are only allowed to make up one exam. And also no curving for grades. For the homework required, there's an average of 5-7 pages.

Fabio Ramirez
