Course summary
The Memeing of Life: Metaphor and Meaning in the AI Era is an engaging yet potentially abstract course with a mix of positive and negative reviews. It's good for those interested in philosophy, critical thinking, and the intersection of AI and culture, though some find it slightly heavy on assignments towards the end of the semester. The professor and teaching assistant are generally praised for their helpfulness.
Grading seems generous; multiple students mention getting A- or higher without extensive preparation, but clarity in assignment guidelines can be an issue.
The workload is moderate to heavy, with assignments due near the end of the semester. The main tasks include a report on memes and a video presentation, along with occasional forum discussions.
Assessment includes a final grade based on assignments (report, video, meme collection), participation in class activities, and possibly quizzes or forums. No midterm exam mentioned.
The professor is described as engaging and kind, while the teaching assistant Claire is noted for her helpfulness. Some students find lectures can be abstract and potentially boring.
Start assignments early to avoid last-minute stress; take notes during class if you don't plan on attending every session due to the lack of PPTs on Moodle.
