HIST4B . Bouley B A 24 Days Ago

I loved this professor. He was an amazing lecturer and I actually went to class. The grade mainly depends on your TA and mine was hard but AMAZING. I found this class very fulfilling and interesting. There was a midterm in-class essay and 2 vocab q's and a final paper. The rest of the grade is weekly writings and participation. Take this class!

He is a great lecturer and class was pretty easy. If you go to lecture and take notes you will get an A. There were weekly 300 word mini papers, pretty easy and top 6 count, a midterm where you get a full page of notes to bring, and a final paper that was pretty easy. This was a great class that I really enjoyed.

The professor gives good lectures. The grade is determined by the ta.

As someone who doesn't like history I found his lectures to be very engaging. The midterm is free response questions, where you get a page of notes. The final is a 5-7 page paper. Section is mandatory and you are expected to do a lot of reading some weeks, but it is definitely manageable. Only homework is 6 essay responses to the weekly readings.

He is a very good lecturer and makes the content fun to learn! This class was very easy as long as you do the reading and pay attention in lecture.

You could do well if you are passionate about history, otherwise you'll find the lectures and readings very boring. There are readings every week paired with a 300 word written response, a midterm exam, and a final paper, and they were all graded pretty harshly by my TA. Overall, the experience largely depends on your TA.

Super passionate and engaging. I'm not a history person, but I loved his lectures. The assigned readings are fairly easy to understand and pretty interesting. The lecture slides have ver y little information on them, so don't skip class :)

Professor Bouley is a great professor! I loved his lectures, they were very engaging and entertaining, there are weekly writing assignments but only 6 are required. The midterm is defining some terms and an essay and the final is a paper. I highly recommend this class as the content was interesting as well.

Professory Bouley is AMAZING. Very captivating lectures, and truly made class very entertaining. Grading Criteria is quite clear. If you want an A, you have to attend lecture, as slides are minimal, but attending lecture is so so worth it. Brad is such a G.

Professor Bouley is an awesome lecturer, extremely funny and engaging. You're graded on section participation, weekly response papers (6 mandatory but can retake to keep highest score), an in-class midterm, and a final paper. Grading can vary based on section, but overall pretty light. He wants you to succeed and is extremely accessible.

Prof Bouley is the best lecturer I've ever had, he makes it so fun and he didn't give an in person final. It was just the midterm and an essay + weekly reading responses but you only have to do 6 of them. He clearly cares about History and his students. He is extremely clear when lecturing always checking that people understand. LOVE PROF BOULEY!

Great teacher, lectures are very engaging and interesting- the only thing is that he talks pretty fast and doesn't put information on his slides. If you are a good notetaker, you will do great in this class. Highly recommend.

Great professor, made me minor in History. Loved this class, very entertaining lectures. Readings could also be fairly interesting, and overall the class is easy if you like history. Highly recommend.

This class made me switch to a history major! Loved how clear the grading was. There is a weekly paper but it was short and didn't take much time and lowest two grades dropped. Tests were easy as study guide was given. The real reason I loved this class though was the way Bouley lectured, as he made lectures both funny and engaging.

Professor Bouley lectures are entertaining, and very well detailed! He is always making sure that everyone in lecture understand and asking questions. I did not skip or miss any lectures which I can defintely say is the reason for my A in the class. If you're thinking about taking the class, do it!

Bouley is clearly passionate about the material and does his best to make lectures interesting. Go in w/ reasonable expectations bc RMP had me thinking lectures would be absolutely captivating. Not always - it's still class. He's extremely accessible during Office Hours. Rlly sweet guy. TA was a harsh grader but made section fun.

The readings were long but some of them were really interesting, and the fact that you only have to do six of them allows you to pick and choose in advance. Best history lecturer I've ever had, I'd literally spend the lecture before his thinking "I've just got to get through this and then I've got bouley". My section wasn't great but YMMV

Lectures are pretty interesting but you HAVE to go. Attendance only taken in section, but he lectures with few words on the slides so if you're gone you'll be lost. Super funny guy though. TAs vary but most are good. You read maybe

Overall pretty easy class. Lectures were super interesting because of Bouley. Quizzes were weekly straightforward but really relied on lecture. The assignments weekly were based on the readings and were pretty easy. The readings were super long though averaging 50 pages a week. Participation in section is also really important.

Good professor with some of the best lectures. Weekly assignments are easy with quizzes that follow the lectures word for word (not timed and 2 tries). Interesting readings! Grade depends mostly on your TA. Make sure to go to your TA's office hours.

Very enjoyable class and professor. He wants you to succeed and makes learning fun. Weekly quizzes are based on lectures and are designed to keep you engaged (easy A if you watch the lectures). Highly recommend Professor Bouley!
