Linguistics 2E03
Hi!

I came across this course (Linguistics 2E03) and it seemed quite appealing . The course is taught by Dr. Stroinska. I'm just wondering if anyone could provide some feedback on this course - how the grading works, whether the workload is light, is it an easy elective etc...

I'd really appreciate your help, and thanks for taking the time out to help!

denisa002, please pay more attention to where you are posting your queries. Your forum post on Linguistics 2E03 should not have ended up in the Drafts (Queued for posting) folder. I have since moved it to Academics.

I haven't taken this class, but I've had Dr. Stroinska before. She's a really nice prof, and tries to engage her class in lectures. She typically uses powerpoint presentations that she posts online before lecture, and rarely adds anything to them. It makes going to class feel sort of useless at times, but she's always ready to answer questions and help you out.
