class consists of lectures + weekly online quizzes, midterm/final exams. lectures are honestly kind of funny, and the quizzes and exams aren't super tough! welter doesn't allow technology like laptops during class.

Professor Welter is a delightful lecturer and has a good sense of humor. He's always very clear about class expectations and it's easy to do well on weekly quizzes if you pay attention to the readings and his presentations. Attendance wasn't mandatory this year but he said he'd change that next time because so few students showed up...

Professor Welter is really funny and his lectures are pretty interesting if you like Architecture. His class was super easy, consisting of weekly quizzes and 2 midterms. All of the questions from the midterms came directly from the quizzes, so make sure to write those answers down.

Only graded on weekly quizzes (get 2 attempts), midterm, and final - midterm and final questions pulled from quizzes. Everything is straight from the assigned weekly readings (which were pretty light) and lectures. Welter made a boring subject interesting and I would recommend taking this class with him if given the opportunity.

I loved Professor Welter. He was very passionate about the class material. The course was well organized and expectations were clear. Weekly readings and quizzes that could be taken twice for full credit on Canvas.

Professor Welter is a great lecturer and makes the class really easy to understand. I am by no means an art history major, but I found the content interesting and was able to be relatively successful in this class. Professor Welter is very passionate about architecture, and it really shows in this class.

Very kind and passionate despite what people say, not conceited or pretentious at all! Very approachable as well. Quizzes were online and based on lecture slides/readings and final/midterm based on these quizzes. His lectures were interesting for a non major as well.

He is super passionate and engaging. Attendance was not mandatory, and his class is based on entirely just the quizzes. All the quiz questions you've seen before get reused for the midterm and final so study those. Couldn't recommend this class enough. Great prof & fascinating material.

Professor Welter is a Professor I have extreme respect and admiration for. He is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about architecture, really tries to get students to engage with the subject in a critical/philosophical manner, and seems to really appreciate students ideas and work. Always a pleasure to take one of his classes!
