Course summary

Mixed

This course covers popular music from the US, Japan, South Korea, and Hong Kong, focusing on various genres but providing a broad overview rather than in-depth analysis. It's recommended for those interested in pop music, though the workload can be heavy with weekly journals and competitive exams.

Grading

Grading is competitive; achieving an A range requires high performance, especially on the reflective journal and midterm exam.

Workload

The workload is moderate to heavy, including a weekly reflective journal and two major exams. Students should expect around 3-5 hours of work per week outside of class.

Assessments

Assessment includes a reflective journal (weekly), midterm and final exams, and two essays.

Teaching

The professor is described as engaging but speaks quickly and can be difficult to follow at times. The course covers a lot of material in a superficial manner.

Tips

Prepare thoroughly for the listening sections in exams; memorizing slides may help with the quick-paced lectures.
