HIST193AW . 7 Years Ago

For a History major, the class was probably fine. As someone who took it as an elective it was pretty uninteresting and had an obscene amount of reading. There's 2 quizzes, a 15 minute presentation, and a midterm of free response. No final but a 4,000 word essay. High expectations for that paper. Wouldn't recommend as an elective for anybody.

Dense lectures and a ton of reading. Difficult course, but interesting (if history is your thing). Lectures are a bit dry though.

Prof Covo is amazing! His lectures are easy to follow and slides are very clear (he also posts the slides so it's accessible outside of class) Attendance to section is mandatory but not lecture. Midterm is online and he gives two online quizzes that are very manageable! Would 100% take him again if I have the chance and great for a GE.

Most boring and non engaging professor I've had with awful slides. The amount of content covered in 4c is ridiculous, and students are expected to know the context behind tons of historical content while citing over 40 primary sources for the final which is closed book.

HIST4C . 1 Year, 5 Months Ago

The final was absolutely confusing, there was no study guide and we had to write two papers while citing sources. It was on topics from week 3-9, and he expected us to have sources relating to multiple parts of each week.
