HIST80 . Barbieri A J 4 Months Ago

SO many canvas quizzes that I would say are all moderately difficult. final essay is time consuming. everything in this class is time consuming. 90 % chance I get an A this quarter (fingers crossed) but summer session B is not for the weak. Professor is MIA the TA does everything. My TA (Wendy) was sweet. Late work is somewhat permitted.

HISTW80 . Barbieri A J 4 Months Ago

The class itself was interesting and I really liked it, but the amount of homework he assigned per week was astronomical. I did his online summer course, session B, and in the last week of the class, he assigned 8 assignments, not including all the lectures you have to watch, all the reading, and the final essay.

HIST2A . Barbieri A J 4 Years Ago

I took this class during Summer of 2021 during Covid so the class was asynchronous. This class has probably 20+ hours of lectures that you have to watch and understand to take the quizzes. The lectures had good content but had poor audio quality. There were 2 papers that need to be very well organized. The course was interesting but time consuming.
