Great professor who is clearly very passionate. Sometimes this leads to her going off topic and rambling in lectures, but generally they are very good. Graded on in-class midterm with cheatsheet, project with lots of options, 5 forum posts, and take-home final. She really cares about her students and is a pretty easy grader if you try.

Great Professor. Very very helpful and will do all she can to help her students succeed. The writing assignments are relevant and graded very fairly. Lots of reading but hey its a history course!

She is a fantastic professor! She is very interested in the topic and her enthusiasm is inspiring. There is a lot of writing in this course, but it is all based on the reading and she is a fairly easy grader. I cannot recommend her enough.

For HIST193P. What an amazing and caring professor. 10/10 would take a class with her again. Course material was really interested. Class was graded on weekly reading question, in person midterm, group project, and final take home project. She respects her student's opinions and feedback, really wants to see students succeed in class. semi-easy A.

took this class for my PISJ minor, very easy!!! There are some basic world history aspects to it that make it boring sometimes, but most lectures were very interesting! So many opportunities for extra credit and exams were take-home. Dr. Rappaport is such a sweetheart, she wants everyone to have fun with learning. 10/10 class and professor.

Overall, if you put in some effort into the class, then you'll pass with an A. There were a lot of readings, but if you reach out to her, she'll work with you to find a middle ground. Graded by participation in discussion posts, midterm paper, project (could do it in a group), and final.
