That is the class itself, averaged across everyone who taught it. Who taught it, and how each of them scored, is the board below — that is what a student picking a section is actually choosing between.

What the challenge rank is made of

3rdMore challenging than 3% of BC classesranked against every one we hold

74BC — “Intellectually Challenging”2 records · raw score out of 100

Boston College's own “intellectually challenging” question for this class only — students answer it positively about courses that stretched them, so it measures intellectual challenge and NOT grading, workload or quality. Almost every BC class scores high on it, which is why it is shown as a rank rather than a score.

What the workload rank is made of

2ndMore work than 2% of BC classesranked against every one we hold

30BC — “Workload”2 records · raw score out of 100

Boston College reports workload for this class only as one of five bands, not as a number of hours, and it does not publish what the bands mean — so this site will not translate it into hours. Higher means more work, which is not the same as worse.

The purpose of this course is to provide students with an introduction to the field of drama therapy and the theories and principles involved in its practice. The course defines Drama Therapy and differentiates it from related fields such as psychodrama and creative drama. The course will provide an overview of the history of drama therapy, exploration of theories and approaches, and typicalsites for practice including schools and educational settings, hospitals, clinics and other medical/psychiatric treatment settings, and community-based programs. Students will observe and participate in experientialdrama therapy exercises over the course of the semester to gain familiarity and practice various techniques.

WorkloadHow much work the course took outside class, on Boston College's five-band scale — the band boundaries are not published, so this is not a number of hours.

Attendance MattersAttending class was necessary to do well in this course.

9467th pctl

Bar length is the rank against every comparable record we hold, not the raw score: BC's questions all have a median around 4.5, so a raw-scale bar would be nearly full on every row and would tell you nothing. Every bar is one ink colour — nothing here is graded green or red. The hatched bars are not ratings at all: a higher number on either describes a different course, not a better one.

How to read this boardInstructors are ranked on their record in this class only, never on their average across everything they teach. Scores are out of 100 — Boston College's 1–5 agreement scale, ×20, the way these numbers were printed for years. Workload is BC's own five-band figure, not a number of hours, and is shown as a rank. A dash means the question was not reported, and is never a zero.
