Jarrett is an awesome lecturer! He makes the information interesting and digestible, and the workload was totally reasonable and manageable. TAs always deducted a few points from every assignment, which was frustrating. But attend class, participate in section, and earn easy points from completion-based assignments and you'll be fine.

Clearly very passionate, great guy. Very iclicker heavy, section attendance and participation matters as it is part of your grade. No midterms and optional final that can only increase your grade. 3 labs, sections up til week 7 are reading heavy. Grades may also be TA dependent which kind of sucks. Overall fair class and it's not bad. Recommended.

Professor Jarett was a great. Loved taking his class and it was super chill and easy. Stay on top of the section readings and lecture notes. He does give his TA's a lot of power when grading. My TA, Christmas, was so bad. Her grading was horrible and feedback was little to none. However, Jarett was awesome and super passionate about his teachings.

Honestly one of the best professors I got this quarter. He is very chill. Yeah there's a lot of reading to do, but it's a history class, of course there is. Overall cool guy, great TAs, good lectures, would take again.

Passionate professor. Sections just depend on your TA, but there is a decent amount of reading for every section, and be prepared to actually read or at least heavily skim because the freewrites go into detail. Participation in section definitely matters, so get ready to talk. 3 labs and 1 final project but just pay attention and you will be fine.

Jarett is such a great professor!! Loved this class and him. Iclicker mandatory lecture, a couple fun and interesting history labs, graded free writes in section, and a project at the end of the quarter. No midterm or final, there is a easy quiz during lecture though. Great professor and great lecture.

Very energetic professor, extremely responsive, and knows what he's doing. Love Jarret. Lots of mandatory notes though! Don't procrastinate and you'll succeed easily.

Professor Henderson was so fun. His classes were always entertaining. It is a lot of reading, and you must submit notes twice a week with a minimum of 1200 words based on readings. It can be a lot, but it's not that bad. Final is a fun project. Weekly reflections. Need to participate in Canvas posts and class. You rate ur own participation. Easy A.

Very sweet guy, and very clear grading requirements. I think the only way you can do badly in this class is if you don't do the assigned work. There's a lot of reading but its helpful and stays consistent throughout the quarter so once you get a routine going its no big deal.

Prepare to do lots of readings and engage in class. But Jarett is one of my fav profs at UCSB bc he genkunely cares about students and enjoys teaching. he's very personable and i recommend getting to know him!

Jarett is such a nice guy. He's extremely passionate and always super driven in class. Big emphasis on participation, he makes you fill out a participation sheet to rate yourself so be prepared to talk on readings for a good grade. Assignments were straightforward and structured. Course material was really interesting. Super super chill guy.

I loved Professor Henderson!!! He encouraged questions and discussions, and is very passionate about teaching and history. Lectures seemed very thoughtfully organized, and readings were always interesting and manageable. He's very understanding and accommodating as well, which can be rare in the history department.
