It is so important to take notes for this class. I really enjoyed this class and I found Professor Wittman to be interesting and engaging!! I would recommend getting notion or another app where you can insert pictures with your notes. Attend all lectures and use Quizlet to memorize dates, locations and sites. It is very hard for a G.E. though...

If you have an interest in architectural history then Wittman is an excellent professor to take. His courses are lecture heavy but they are very interesting (personally, I find them enthralling). 142F was a new course for this quarter and he was a bit disorganized but I've taken several other courses with him and that's typically not an issue.

Lecture slides have little information on them, so be prepared to takes lots of notes (attendance is also mandatory). Had a midterm, in-class essay and final - midterm was supposed to be 5 IDs and two short-essay questions but he made it 15 IDs without telling anyone ahead of time. Getting a good grade is doable you just have to put in lots of work
