Prof. Ogbechie doesn't help you prepare for the midterm or final, you're basically on your own and this class depends on your TA. He has an accent which makes it hard to understand him, on top of that, he has a deep voice and starts to get quiet and mumble when he says longer sentences. He also lacks the mutual respect that students give him.

Not the most approachable teacher, nevertheless he is a fair grader and explains his lessons fairly well.

Prof. Ogbechie is very knowledgable and incorporates very interesting artwork and content into the course. However, he does not prepare you for the midterm or final very well which is most of your grade. The midterm and final requires memorizing 30 ish artwork ID's, information about them, and artistic analysis. Too much reading, just skim.

Lectures can frankly be convoluted, monotonous, and confusing. The amount of reading in this class is PAINFUL. Your entire grade comes down to the midterm and final, both structured similarly. Do NOT take this class as a GE if you can avoid it. It wasn't the worst, but it was more stressful than I liked.

Expects you to know things that he never goes over in lecture. The lecture slides either have too much text or none and I never know what to take notes on. Grades you literally based on how he feels that day, and often gives a C when you've given full effort. Kept creating new submission modules for the final essay & I nearly missed the last one.

The MOST disorganized class I've ever taken with no visible grading criteria for assignments. Insanely tough grader for no reason. He cannot use canvas for the life of him, and will create assignments and not tell anyone. Sends out emails at 10 pm on Sun w vital info when class is at 9am Mon. SO unclear about requirements for midterm & final essay.
