Really interesting, insightful lectures. Goes beyond facts/dates and looks into why we think the way we do. Had to push myself a bit keeping up with comm b but nothing unreasonable.

I didn't care a whole lot about the actual subject, but I enjoyed her lectures. (If taking for comm b credit, I'd recommend maybe taking something slightly easier if you aren't interested in art/literature history). Bonus points for her fun british accent, also says very funny things. Overall a great professor!","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/1271884","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":3.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:27:37.194390+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTQzMDQ3MTg0","source_instructor_id":"rmp:1271884","instructor_name":"Karen Britland","course_label":"ILS204","course_id":"ILS 204","course_uid":"course_7f36deb1fb8912d0e9f1436c","review_date":"2026-05-06 17:35:33 +0000 UTC","comment":"Dr. Britland is a very sweet and passionate professor. She's very lecture heavy but loves what she's talking about. She adds to the lectures with her own experiences as well, which are fascinating. The grading criteria is sometimes confusing and there's a lot of out-of-class readings, but overall a great class.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/1271884","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":3.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:27:37.194390+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTQxMTM3MDM2","source_instructor_id":"rmp:1271884","instructor_name":"Karen Britland","course_label":"ILS204","course_id":"ILS 204","course_uid":"course_7f36deb1fb8912d0e9f1436c","review_date":"2025-05-02 19:30:14 +0000 UTC","comment":"Karen was awesome, if you are taking comm b for this class, discussion kinda sucks but nothing too bad.

I have never had a professor be so engaging like she was. There was very little homework and I opened the textbook once. The homework that we did have were four short essays and she didn't grade most of them until the last couple weeks of school which was a bummer. She is not a harsh grader though.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/1271884","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":2.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:27:37.194390+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTM4MDMzODg1","source_instructor_id":"rmp:1271884","instructor_name":"Karen Britland","course_label":"ILS204","course_id":"ILS 204","course_uid":"course_7f36deb1fb8912d0e9f1436c","review_date":"2023-06-09 15:03:26 +0000 UTC","comment":"AMAZING prof INCREDIBLE class. I have taken SO much from this course and specifically Britland's insight on W. Euro Culture. She opens your eyes to an entirely new realm of thinking and adds humor while synthesizing art and culture through history. Listen to her lectures - purely for your own learning, not just for the grade. She taught me so much.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/1271884","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":3.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:27:37.194390+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTM3Njg3ODky","source_instructor_id":"rmp:1271884","instructor_name":"Karen Britland","course_label":"ILS204","course_id":"ILS 204","course_uid":"course_7f36deb1fb8912d0e9f1436c","review_date":"2023-04-22 04:51:26 +0000 UTC","comment":"She has a cool accent and engages with students well. Very enthusiastic about course material, and often displays multiples forms of media in lectures. She is timely with emails, but a bit forgetful. The class is very straightforward and a good Com-B option with minimal presentations. ","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/1271884","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":2.0}]
