Listening to Jazz

It's an interesting course if you like music in general. The first part is about jazz history and the first quiz is just memorizing the handout he gives you. The second main part of the course is "listening to jazz". We listen to different jazz pieces in class and the teacher tells you about the different styles, emotions, instruments, musicians... In the 3 other quizes, he basically gives you the song beforehand and you have to analyze it during the quiz (so it's basically also kind of memorization). He almost also tells you what to write so don't worry. There's no final. Considering assignments, he always tells us to complete stuff and email it to him, but he never replied back so I don't think he ever sees them. Just show him that you care about the course and high 90s are easily attainable. Don't take the course if you have no interest in music and just want an "easy" elective however.
