Wonderful teacher! He was so well versed in everything, providing a variety of ways to learn the material through lecture as well as helpful videos. On tests his grading, will take a variety of information as long as you answer the question. I learned a lot in his class and just enjoyed how it wasn't high maintenance, but provided a lot of info.

Good professor. He is really passionate about his work and is pretty easy-going. Is flexible with assignments and due dates. The only down-side is that a lot of the articles he assigns are long and unless you're a really big art history and art philosophy enthusiast, you're really not going to enjoy them.

Prof. Ouellette does a great job explaining the reading from within the book. With all the background knowledge of Art History that he has, he knows exactly how to explain the information being presented. He was an awesome teacher, I will definitely recommend him to anyone who is planning to take an Art history class.

Ouellette had this class set up so that his students get to learn about what we wanted to learn about, he gave us options on what he'd lecture about and have the class choose what interests them the most which is really cool. Two classes a week -one day is usually group work with the textbook and the other day for lectures. Fun class!

David is a great teacher, especially if you take his online course. Everything is laid out from day one for you to be successful. All assignments have "due dates," however, before the deadline you can submit anything as many times as you like until you get 100%. Just turn in the homework each week, and I promise that you will pass with an A!

Really easy teacher, almost no effort required. Made critiques to my writing that were invalid or unnecessary, should stick to teaching art. The online format was well laid out, but it was too easy to pass if that is what you are going for.

The online course is easy to navigate and you can even work ahead if you like. He was very generous with over due assignments (aside from the final project, thats a hard deadline). I only got to talk to him over zoom once for the project within the course, but he seemed very nice.

Cares about the material and what you have to say about the course content. Really clear about expectations, due dates, schedule, etc. You can tell he wants students to succeed and provides a lot of opportunity for reflection, response, and creative outlets rather than tests/quizzes.

My favorite professor I've had. Grading is basically just based on completion and late work is accepted. It was clear that he was passionate and knowledgeable about his subject and his course content and feedback reflected this. Overall really engaging class even if art isn't your main interest.

Prof. Ouellette is awesome! Super passionate and knowledgeable, genuinely wants everyone to learn and take away something of value from class. Class usually consists of going over our discussion board from the previous lesson, maybe doing an activity, and then a lecture. We even got to take a field trip to the Art Institute, which was a blast :)

My only caveat is that I didn't really get to experience his knowledge. It was just lectures and reading. It would be nice if he would make his own presentations and or his own videos explaining the subjects as he is very passionate about art history. I know more students would appreciate it from him. Great professor. Take him.

pretty easy.Only discussion board,reply and project divided in 7 parts and one part is due Sunday.Pretty tough grader if you don't follow his instructions so read thoroughly and watch the videos he posts about the assignment.If he gives you a zero,he'll let you re-do it as many times until he just gives you full points either you get 2pts or 0 pts.

So, when I chose this class, I thought it was going to be great because of his rating on here. The work is easy, but he came off as snobby or rude. In this class whenever I turned in the work, he would backhand complement me and make me feel like I did a bad job on something when I know I didn't. Be careful choosing him as a professor

In his grading process he is very clear on the minimum requirements to receive full credit. But beware if you only do the minimum requirements, he is very sensitive and will give you negative and unnecessary feedback. other than that, it was an easy A just be ready for the negativity. Would not recommend if you are a sensitive person

Clear guidelines and gives full credit if meet minimum requirements, and follows up with helpful feedback on how to improve your writing! I've met him in person and he's a very caring and understanding instructor that's easy to reach outside of class. I'm in the same course as some of these other critical students.. my advice- 100% take this class!

He is very lenient on late work and has very simple requirements of the assignments. If given feedback on a particular assignment, he is straightforward on what needs to be fixed, so you'll be able to correct it. He doesnt give to much work but when there is homework, he gives you a reasonable amount of time in order to do it before the deadline.

Love Prof O! In my second class with him now and couldn't recommend enough. Lots of reading/videos since it's an accelerated course but he's super clear on expectations and wants you to succeed, so just stay on top and you'll be fine! Super cool guy, invested in his students, passionate, and easy to contact. Really fostered my love of art history!

I took Art 2211, 2212, and 2213 with David. 2211 was an 8 week online course. It was a lot of work, but definitely doable. David is a fair grader, super helpful, and replies to emails quickly. If you get the chance to go on a field studies trip with David, DO IT! I went on the NYC and CDMX trips--All I can say is they were AWESOME experiences!

I enjoyed him. His online class was very easy, assignments are very minimal points (usually 2 or 3 points) so you have to stay on top of them. There is not a ton of work to do, everything is due Friday nights and takes me maybe an hour tops. He has clear grading criteria which makes the class easy and he ALWAYS gives feedback. Would take again!

Loved this 8 week class, the content for this course and the paper you have to write throughout the semester are really engaging and interesting. As long as you follow the criteria set for each assignment it is a very easy class. Mostly discussion boards and readings alongside a big paper that he gives you plenty of time to work on.

It was a pretty okay class. The assignment instructions were clear, and he was very strict about following them. Unfortunately, I fear Prof. Ouellette is allergic to emails. I emailed him maybe four times about my grade and did not receive a response, so take that how you will. Easy A though

If you find Art history interesting definitely pay attention to the lectures but you're never tested on the information so note taking is not necessary. We got graded on attendance and the final project and that was everything for the whole semester. The final project is almost completely self guided and the grading on it is not harsh at all.

Art Teacher with a snob mentality. Anytime you complete a discussion board and its not up to his expectations, he'll turn into a bob cut Karen and give you a zero for "vagueness" "Lack of effort" or the best one "unable to grant credit." Plus the project he makes you do in parts shows his "lack of effort" as a six figure salary teacher. Do better.
