This class wasn't hard, I just procrastinated on my work and constantly turned it in late. Alexander is really unique because he doesn't believe in determining a student's knowledge through test-taking. Therefore, there are no tests in this class, only papers.

This class was so great because it wasn't graded, so there wasn't the pressure of writing good papers just for the grade. The content of the readings was very eye-opening to my past misconceptions about what history should look like. And I definitely recommend going to optional classes because you'll get more out of the class.

It was a pleasure being in his class. Sometimes the readings were a bit hard to understand, but if you get a gist of the content, you will do fine in your paper. We only have to do one short paper each week and if it is about the reading he will give you an A. A con is that some readings downgrade some religions such as Christianity.

I took his online asynchronous History 136 and it was pretty chill. There really was not much to it. For this online asynchronous class, I was assigned weekly readings and 1 reflection on those readings (at least 500 words) to write per week. He has a final reflection which is basically reflecting on everything you read (2-3 pages).

He is fantastic! I've seen a lot of positive comments about him. I agree. He's enthusiastic, supportive, and makes you feel confident in class. My only feedback is that he sometimes wander and could give more feedback on student work. He's been a little late a few times, but overall, his positivity and dedication make his class a great experience.

He is very patient and always willing to help when you need support. Sometimes he goes off topic unexpectedly, which can be a little confusing to me sometimes, and sometimes I have trouble understanding the material, but he always tries his best help and explain things again. He cares about his students and wants them to succeed.

He truly tries to make class inclusive and accommodating for everyone needs. He's supportive and thoughtful with assignments. He has a quirky style. Sometimes he use a strong language one or two times but it's not offensive to us. Sometimes he runs late or sometimes misses a session, but overall he's a kind professor.
