Super nice guy. Participation matters, but he is very understanding. Grading can be a bit vague, but there are no tests, and homework is manageable. It was an interesting class, but got a little repetitive, in my opinion.
Overall it's an easy A class. The material was engaging and the class was interactive, however, sometimes Dr. Alexander can be a harsh grader when uncalled for.
Classes can get boring, but if you read and stay engage in class conversations it is very interesting and fun to be in. No exams and his papers are not hard to write and grading is chill. He's willing to help anyone and is really kind.
