[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think once the lecture is 100, it makes no difference how much bigger. And again they have discussion classes of 20 for those classes. BTW intro econ is so popular at UVA because its a required pre-req or McIntire and the Batten School. This fall I think it has 450 which is far and away the biggest class my son has taken at UVA but he is applying to Batten which why he's taking it. His other classes are generally around 100 for popular profs.[/quote] Discussion classes can be helpful, but they're taught by TAs who are not infrequently pretty lousy at teaching and/or unmotivated.[/quote] My students at UVA have LOVED Their discussion class leaders who have all be post docs. [/quote] That's good to hear. I'm sure there are other great TAs at UVA as well. But we know from experience that there are also some crappy ones, like at all schools. [/quote]
