I'm taking her for the lecture and the lab. In the lecture, she doesn't teach. She expects you to go home and teach everything yourself and when you come into class you're just going to do group activities. She's super tough and doesn't have a lot of mercy, you really have to study or you will seriously fail.

I liked the remote/distant learning class this summer. It was much easy to study at home and not go to BC and sit in the lecture hall. All lectures are recorded so I was able to review them on my own. All exams are online. I had technical issues during one exam and she was super nice and gave me another chance. Easy assignments worth few points.
