Prof. is funny and enthusiastic but sometimes rambles. Lecture attendance is not required although you will be quizzed on the lecture material and participation in section. One essay and one group project. Final and midterm were not difficult but I would recommend paying at least some attention to the readings and lecture. Overall good class/GE.

Lectures are very interesting, but the professor does ramble at times. Midterm was difficult but had a generous curve. Final was free. The class is graded out of 105% and loaded with extra credit opportunities. The first five weeks are boring but the last five are genuinely great. Do the weekly readings and your A will be confirmed.

Make sure you do the readings. As someone who enjoys art history, this class was so boring and going to class was a struggle. It is also super dependent on your TA and they are kinda allowed to make different rubrics and do what they want. It is made up of a midterm, essay, group project, final, section questions and section attendance.

Before entering this class, remember it's an art history course! You will be asked to analyze art forms in an essay and lectures at the beginning could be boring before kicking off into the fun stuff after the midterm. White is a fun, sweet man, and I personally enjoyed him. Pay attention in lectures because you'll be quizzed in mandatory sections.

This class was not as fun as I'd hoped as it is a history class first and foremost. First half of the lectures very boring but as it got closer to present day it got better. 3 essays, 3 quizzes, and a final. All pretty easy and online. I would take as an easy GE, but it def isn't the most entertaining.

Content is based on lectures and readings, but not necessary to attend because he posts slides after each class (only pictures though). Short weekly quiz based on the lecture and readings. 3 essays (900-1200 words each), 3 online quizzes, and 1 online final exam.

Straightforward, boring lectures, but important to go and take notes to succeed in this class. Lenient grading on essays, easy quizzes. Section attendance mandatory, and beware of the lecture quiz questions in sections, they're sometimes tricky. White is an average lecturer but to his credit he's pretty chill and accessible outside of class.

Jerry is a fantastic professor. This is the third time I've taken one of his classes. I've taken big online classes with him as well but this class is a small seminar-style class. In either environment he's been a great lecturer and is very personable and helpful in smaller class settings.

its a lot of work but the professor lets you submit work multiple times for a better grade. grades quick so you don't need to wait until last minute and office hours are helpful

lectures were boring, but i found it helpful to go especially for the papers that weren't graded easily. part of the final is a group project, it wasn't hard, just tedious work. most of the tests were multiple choice and take home, but the final had some short answer responses. section for this class was unbearable, but mandatory.

He gives dull lectures but will sometimes have fun interactive in class activities. The readings are interesting, quizzes will have the most random things in the readings and the lectures, but I would just skim through the reading to find the keywords. 2 papers with interesting prompts that allows for creativity. Fun final game design project.

Professor White was really engaging with his lectures. He always brought students up to the front of class to demonstrate, and the class becomes really relevant towards the end. He posts the slides after class, but there is minimal text on them, mostly information comes from the mouth, so make sure to go to lecture.

ARTHI 136C was amazing with Prof White! In-class group assignments were a great way to apply textbook to real life scenarios and the lectures were very interesting. Relatively easy if you do the readings and pay attention in class

This class is a great GE. The content is super interesting even though the prof is a little boring. I watched the lecture videos but never did the reading (only skimmed it for the weekly quizzes). Finished with an A+. One major essay and two projects. The TAs are pretty lenient on grading. Highly recommend!

Prof White was a boring lecturer. The concept of the class seems kind of interesting but I found that this professor made the content boring. There are weekly open note quizzes based on the reading, online lectures, and in class lectures. It just seems like too much work for a 4 unit class, imo. There's also a paper and a group project.

Took this in Spring 2021. This class is suitable for anyone. Concepts about games are very basic. Untimed weekly quizzes based on lectures. 2 papers in total. TAs are generous in grading. A final group project is to make a board game. They are simple. He also gives a 5% extra credit with a super easy matching quiz. Getting A in GE is easy and fun.

I took the class just to get GE's out of the way and it didn't sound very interesting but professor White's passion for and presentation of the materials made the class super interesting.

Took this over the summer. Lots of readings of lectures and such, weekly quizzes for 40% of your grade. I pass/no passed the class and we had a single paper. Interesting content. Not completely about video games, more board games/table top.

Good class, lecture presentations are way too long.

Good professor. Lecture slides were terrible, because we had to read it on our own. But the video with the professor lecturing was very engaging.

Prof. White is an awesome guy who really knows his stuff about architecture, and can be quite funny with a dry sarcastic humor. Hes also very understanding, caring, and grades fairly. This seminar was fun despite the dry reading material and presentation project. I learned a lot about house museums; from their history, to their function. 10/10.

pretty easy! it is the second time for me to take his class, I really enjoy working with Jeremy.

For a class about games, it sure was a slog. Lectures were far too broad and unspecific. It seemed more like an archaeology class with a thin thread of games throughout. This was only his second time teaching it, so I'm optimistic the class will improve, particularly because he is very passionate about the subject, but maybe give it a few years.

I found ARTHI 6A to be fairly easy since I was interested in it. The sections have absolutely nothing to do with the lecture material, and very few grades come from section besides 1 paper and attendance. My TA was a nice grader so I got lucky with that.
