Knapp is totally cool. Smart guy, interesting class, very funny.
Funny guy. He keeps you interested. I didnt care about humanities at all until I took his class. He is a new teacher from TCC. Check him out in the Tallahassee Community College section for more ratings.
I learned alot. Knapp is a great teacher! If you fail you should give up on school. No homework and like three or four short papers.
Awesome teacher!!! Will do anything to help you succeed!! Very interesting classes, and he likes football. All and all, TAKE HIM, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!
He was a great teacher. All his tests were take-home and for the little assignments he did give, he only expects for it to be grammatically correct! Not hard at all! Very Down 2 Earth!
Awesome guy! His class is really cool and interesting. I strongly recommend him. He is very nice, laid back and most importantly FUNNY.
Professor Knapp is awesome. Very down to Earth and, shall we say, "hip" guy. He'll keep you entertained while he teaches. Two big (and easy) tests, two essays, and a few in-class writing assignments. You don't even need to show up (though you get points for doing so). This was my favorite class this semester.
The tests are take home so no reason for a wrong one. Also you dont have to take notes, you dont even have to show up, he could really care less. Chill as hell annnnd besides the take home test we just watched movies that was it. The second day of class we watched the gladiator.. too easy
He is really excited about what he teaches about which makes it easier to be in his class. He is also extremely obsessed with Rome so dont say anything bad about it. Overall it was my favorite class this semester
He passion for Rome makes it an exciting class!
Professor Knapp is a really cool, laid back guy. He gives take home tests, but don't let that fool you because you have to write essays. I would definitely take him again and recommend him to anyone!
He makes learning fun! Interacts well with the students. Tests are take home but heavy; a lot of writing.
Get ready to learn. Prof Knapp is a subject matter expert. Don't let the movies and take home test fool you! Prof K knows how to relate lectured material to each movie he shows. They aren't just for entertainment, they are course materials too. Do take notes. Some of the test questions are tricky. Notes help. Great class and good Prof.
I loved Professor Knapp he made class so much fun! This was by far my favorite class this semester! It shows when he teaches his love for what he does! I will deff miss that class.
professor knapp was awesome. i loved this class and would and have recommended it to others. i am also taking another class of his in a few semesters. his knowledge and enthusiasm makes the class interesting.
Great professor. His test are quite easy and verbatim.. I would highly recommend this class to anyone. It is an entertaining class.
This was one of the best classes I've ever taken. Mr. Knapp knows what he's talking about and makes it interesting. There's a lot of writing, but the test questions are all in notes which he provides, or in the book. Show up, write the essays, and enjoy.
Nice teacher. Every assignment was easy and interesting.
the best teacher. down to earth and very easy highly recommended
He is excellent professor and I highly recommend his any of his classe. I must say he sizzling hot and funny.
he is one of the best teachers I have had! he makes the lessons interesting and isnt to hard on grading. I would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to take humanities.
His class is very interesting and you will learn a lot. I highly recommend him to anyone. He is one of the best professors I've had at FSCJ so far.
Great teacher. Really loves teaching humanities and knows his stuff. Funny guy. You won't want to miss a class. Take him!
I had two of his classes in the same semester and he was totally Awesome, he made history interesting and come to life with his crazy story. If you take this class I guarantee youll have fun while learning at the same time. You have all take home tests and in class essays. I loved his class it was awesome, I would highly recommend this class. :)
Very good teacher. Relates quality information to class from his own knowledge and experience easily, and has a great personality. I laughed, but more importantly, I learned. Highly recommend this instructor
Knapp isn't just an academic; he understands and appreciates what he teaches, which is one of the best qualities to have in a professor. The exams are take-home, but contain a lot of material. If you make it a point to pay attention during class and retain he information, you'll do fine.
He is a Funny man! He class was great! I learn so much and he is a very smart man! Take his Class. You have take home exams, some quizzes ,and attendance. What more can you ask for in a teacher!
TAKE HIS CLASS! Professor Knapp is an awesome teacher and grades farely if you put in the effort. This was the perfect class to take for the summer. We watched movies and all exams were take home. Hell of a guy!
Very interesting class. Makes learning fun and easy, watched movies and learned about Rome. Take home tests, attendence needed though to really grasp all material. He shared personal experiences and knowledge to relate to the material. And he doesn't look too bad either.
Love this guy! Says UMMM a lot. He is very funny! Very interesting lectures super easy!
This class is very easy if you keep up with your notes and tuen in your work on time. We watch movies and all exams are take home, so make sure you all you notes. Sometimes the class is boring and at times it has its peak of interest. Overall i would advise you to take this class because its not hard, kinda interesting, and you watch mobies!!!
He definitely made the course worth while. Keep the livity up, much as possible. Instant feed back, accessiable, and ready to clarify any misunderstood material. Strong recommendations.
Prof Knapp loves what he teaches. He's a great professor who can make the class enjoyable. Even if you're not into humanities, you'll find yourself interested in what he's talking about. Extremely easy class, short quizzes and an essay. If you enjoy talking you'll enjoy this class
Funniest professor ive ever had
GREAT professor. I had a 3 hour class once a week and I was never bored! He kept things interesting. You watch a bunch of movies and all the test are take home. Easy A!
Very interesting class regarding Rome and films made in Rome.I was surprised to enjoy most of them. This would be a great elective class for anyone interested in Roman culture.
Very passionate about the subject and incredibly engaging of the entire class. Not an easy 'A' as some have stated; you do have to engage, and you do have to work. What I suspect some are referring to when they say "easy" is the fact that he makes the class enjoyable and is more concerned with educating his students than with tripping them up by qu
Great class to take, lectures are surprisingly interesting and quizzes are pretty straightforward. Great guy, if you're interested at all in humanities you gotta take this class.
You would be hard pressed in your academic career to find a professor as uniquely brilliant & passionate in his field. Relates the subject in a compelling manner that surveys the canvas of the human tradition. He is also HILARIOUS. His class is always an entertaining learning experience.It's his way connecting the student to the material.Take notes
Great Class. Kept it interesting.
Funniest professor I've had so far. Knows what he's talking about and will get you interested in humanities.
The lectures are pretty educational-his first hand experience also adds to the class. The book is pretty key for his exams as well as some things from his lectures but overall it's a pretty easy class if you pay attention.
Very interesting. Very easy class. Knows his stuff and likes to teach. highly recommended
Professor Knapp took a curiosity I had and turned it into an interest. The subject matter he talks about (art, poetry, literature) could easily become boring in the wrong hands, but he does a good job making it fun. He clearly enjoys what he does, and doesn't drown you with tedious/annoying schoolwork. I look forward to taking him again!
HUM2020:ROME was great!!!! Pro.Knapp made is so interesting and fun. I did not know what to expect, but it was good. Watched alot of movies in reference to Rome, which really helped bring the lectures to life. Would def reccommend to anyone who need a HUM class.
honestly the best professor i have ever had. took a subject that i was not interested in at all and made it the class i couldnt wait to go to. he is clear about everything and makes classes interesting. he is so funny. WINNING like charlie sheen. TAKE HIM!! seriously.
The Best professor I have ever had so far at FSCJ. Extremely interesting talker, knows what hes talking about. Grades quite fairly although you must do the assignments to pass. Take him!!!
BEST PROFESSOR EVER! I've never had so much fun in a class. He has a great sense of humor and makes you excited to come to class. He easily relates to his students. Expect quizzes, and a few essays. p.s. he also dresses nicely(;
Highly recommened Professor. He loves what he does and it shows. Makes class entertaining. I am enrolled in another of his classes for this summer.
Professor Knapp is the best professor at FSCJ hands down! His teaching style is totally different. He makes class very interesting. He is not hard on grading. Easy A! Just do your assignments and take home exams and you'll do fine ;) Trust me! Taking him again for Hum 2210 over the summer! Highly RECOMMEND
Professor Knapp is intelligent in his field, and makes class fun. There's not tons of hw, but it is expected to listen and keep notes. The exams are challenging but as long as you study and listen, an A is definitely possible. Everyday, listening to Knapp and learning more about Europe made me want to go there more and more! Great class.
Great teacher!! There is a few in class writing assignments but nothing really hard... if you pay attention and listen to his lectures you will understand and the exams will come easy to you. GREAT TEACHER!!! TAKE HIM!!!!!!!!
He was hilarious, easy and interesting. Enough said.
He is great. I definately recommend him! If he coul teach all my classes i would totally do it!
Professor Knapp was very enthusiastic about this class. He had actually been to the places he taught about which made the lectures more interesting. Multiple quizes, few tests, and short essays. Do what is expected of a good student, and get a good grade.
Professor Knapp is awesome. I learned a lot in his class. His way of teaching is clear and concise, and interesting enough to make you want to learn more. I would definitely recommend him to another student
I had taken one of his classed previously, so it wasn't a big surprise that I love this course. He's enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Attendence is required for full points!
Lectures were long, but he made them VERY interesting. Funny guy-uses modern times to relate text. I'm not one for lectures, but Professor Knapp kept my attention for three hours. I'd love to takr another one of his classes, but I don't need anymore HUM.
Teacher was very knowledgeable with his stuff. He genuinely has a passion for teaching. Interesting class. Had a lot of fun!
Show up for class, and do all the work and you will be fine! You will laugh alot, and we watched movies to go with each unit, one movie for every unit!
Interesting class thanx to Prof.Knapp. He is very knowledgeable. You will not need your book- He uses powerpoints and posts them on BB. His tests are pretty easy. You also get to watch a few movies throughout the semester. If you do the work and show up to class, there is no way you will fail. I highly recommend his class.
Professor Knapp is a great teacher, he makes the class very interesting, uses his sense of humor..Read the book but specially the handouts, be familiar with the pictures, works of art and vocabulary. Two essays, two tests, and quizes. Just go to class, read and do the study guides and you will do good, don't miss a class is worth the grade
Professor Knapp is a great professor who is clear on what he expects from you. This class is not hard, nor is it easy, You are graded on 2 midterms with 2 essays going along with each midterm. There are 5 quizes and a final with 3 essays. I found this class to be fair and I received an A. If you study your study guide, you will get an A or a B
Awesome professor and class
Great Teacher!! I loved how he taught the class. I had taken Humanities previously, and I hated it. Knapp made the class actually fun to attend. We had 3 tests based on class lectures and movies which we watched. We also had a couple of quizzes. I would definitely recommend him to any student!
Awesome!!
He makes the class very interesting by adding to it with his own humor and jokes. On the tests, you do 50 multiple choice and write two essays at HOME, then bring it to class the day of the test. You watch movies such The Gladiator in this class... Take it!
I'm madly in love with this man. No shame. Best professor I've ever had.
LOVE THIS PROFESSOR ! BEST SO FAR
If your looking for an easy A, this is not your class. Professor Knapp is an amazing teacher who is willing to teach his knowledge to those who want to learn. He is extremely interesting and will keep you on the edge of your seat with fun facts. Laughed the entire class and learned a lot. Amazing teacher but slackers, beware! Don't bs him.
Never used the textbook. Didn't need to, the man is full of knowledge. A couple of quizzes, 1 midterm, 1 final. As long as you pay attention during class (maybe) take some notes, then studying should be minimal. No homework except for the essays that are required with the midterm/final.
Wasn't to sure I would like this class, but Knapp is an amazing teacher. Keeps the class interesting and fun. I would def take him again.
Came into the class not interested in the subject but Knapp made it fun. Not alot of grades in the class so you do have to do good on the ones you have. If you study for his quizzes and test you should pass with no problem. Knapp gives great study guides as well! Best professor i have had yet!
This Guy knows his stuff about europe..really cool dude(HELla funny2). professor! TAKE HIM YOU WONT REGRET IT!!!. He's always open to help you again way he can!
Best professor I've had yet! He was extremely knowledgeable about the subject matter and he made class really interesting.
Professor Knapp is by far the best professor I have had since being at fscj. He is truly passionate about what he's teach, and he's extremely funny. I never had to study for a test, because I learned everything from the lectures themselves. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone.
If you have to take a humanities class, you have to take Prof. Knapp. He makes you feel the material, you really won't need to study for test because you cover the material so much in depth. He is very passionate about his classes - keeps you interested and awake.
Best professor at FSCJ. He loves what he teaches, therefore his lectures are knowledgable and funny. I didn't put much effort in studying, because I learned everything I needed with his lectures alone. He also gives study guides for quizzes and exams, which is very helpful. I highly recommend him to everyone.
BEST TEACHER @ FSCJ & FAVORITE ONE THERE!!!! He loves what he teaches and he actually makes humanities interesting. He is a personable out-going person which made the class enjoyable
Fantastic teacher! He's super smart and you will learn a lot of information. Studying is a must; take lots of notes! Overall: favorite class and teacher!
He was an amazing teacher. He made you like humanities and want to learn more. He is very passionate about his topic but that makes his class even better. His tests are easy there straight from his study guide. Its a really easy class and fun.
This class covers alot,but after all the reading the lectures brought it all together.Just be ready to read and show up. Great Professor..
If i had to sum up Professir Knapp with one word, it would be AMAZING!!! Professor Knapp is the best professor I've taken thus far. His lectures are entertaining, and you learn so much from them, you don't need to study for exams. He's passionate about what he's teaching. He also gives study guides for his exams, which are a HUGE help. His class is a must take!!!
The favorite professor I have had the pleasure of encountering at FSCJ so far. I learned more in this class than I did in any other class. Professor Knapp makes a three hour lecture actually interesting, and I didn't struggle to stay awake. And he was more than willing to stay after class and answer questions. Best professor ever.
Professor Knapp knows how to run a classroom and makes the material he teaches interesting even to people like myself that typically have no interest in Humanities. I learned so much through his style of teaching. The man is full of knowledge and knows his material inside and out and then some. He's a Great Professor! Highly Recommended.
Professor Knapp is probably the best professor ever. Great teaching, well explained course materials and very hilarious. You wont be disappointed.
Professor Knapp is probably the best professor ever. Great teaching, well explained course it actually keep me interested about Rome. Be aware there are 4 essays do. about the films you watch.
I'm not sure how to rate my interest in the class. Before taking this class, I didn't care about Rome, but after the class I am planning out a trip. Prof. Knapp knows his stuff and will teach you if you let him. He's passionate and loves his work. I'm going to be taking him again for another HUM class later this year. Looking forward to it!
Best teacher ever you won't regret this class
Professor Knapp is a fabulous lecturer. He would have done well as a comedian. Use the study guides he provides and you will not have any problems in this class.
I don't think I've ever looked forward to going to class as much as I do his. He is an awesome professor, funny, smart, nice and easy! I highly reccomend!!
This is by far my favorite professor I've had at FSCJ. He's very funny and makes the class engaging and interesting. If you're looking for an easy class then this isn't it.
awesome professor. He is funny and makes the class fun to learn! We watch a lot of movies that are interesting and have a lot to do with the class. best professor I have taken so far!
I walked in to this class not knowing what to expect. He's an amazing professor who is funny. He makes the class interesting. He gives you study guides for your midterm and final, if you use them you will be fine. Wish he taught more classes I needed :).
He was a great professor. He is really funny, very informative, and his class is overall entertaining.
Professor Knapp is great. I would strongly recommend him to anyone that enjoys a good laugh. He goes over everything in detail, so their is no reason why you shouldn't pass the class with an A. The class consist of lectures and movies pay attention and you'll do fine. But you have to pass the mid-term if you don't you stand no chance of passing.
OMG where do I start! Prof. Knapp is awesome, perfetto! The best instructor I've ever had! We got along very well and had a lot in common especially our interests in Italy! He is hilarious, intelligent and fun! I'm definitely taking another course with him! Won't use your book honestly! See the excitement in my tone, yeah he's just that great!
Prof. Knapp is awesome! He's so interesting, fun, intelligent and hilarious! I highly recommend him if you want to enjoy your semester and learn new things! Barely used the book always made it to class because I was that thrilled about it!
He is diverse, super smart. I am fascinated by all he knows, he is a wealth of information, the class was fun and he will make you laugh! Highly recomend him.
I came into the class very worried because I completely 'disliked' a previous humanities course. Prof. Knapp provides a unique style that is both entertaining and enjoyable while imparting knowledge about the subject. Attend class, listen and do your assignments and you will thrive.
Professor Knapp was the best instructor I have ever had in my educational career. He was very knowledgeable and did not rely on textbooks to teach. He kept my attention the entire class period, and I very much enjoyed going to his class each week. He is very helpful and charismatic, his teaching style is the best, and he is the beyond intelligent .
***LATIN REVIEW*** This is one of the most interesting classes I've ever taken. Not only do you get to learn the Latin language, but Prof. Knapp tosses in bits of useful info that can help you understand English, Spanish, French, and other languages better. This is a rough class, but very rewarding. If you need a second language. Take Latin!
*LATIN 2 REVIEW* This is my third class with Prof. Knapp. He is, as always, extremely passionate about the subject. Latin 2 was much easier than Latin 1. Why? I was able to use what I learned last semester and build on it. I'm kind of sad that there is no Latin 3 being offered in fall. Once again, I would highly recommend Prof. Knapp. Take Latin!!
this professor was very knowledgeable, He kept my attention the entire class period, He is very helpful and his teaching style is great. I would take this professor again.
By far hands down one of my favorite professors to date. He is very passionate about his teachings and really draws you in. Take him if you want a great teacher who knows his stuff. Dont think you are going to get an easy A, you have to do the work and research. THIS IS COLLEGE! I wish I needed another Humanities class just so I can take him. :(
This was my second class with Professor Knapp and it was just as fantastic as before! He has a great sense of humor, but also makes the class easy to understand. If you study for the midterm, final, and any possible random quiz, you should have no problem. Definitely take him!
Great Professor! He knows his materials very well. Must take notes and study. I love the movie part don't forget to bring POPCORN. Lol All in all HOT,SMART,GREAT PROFESSOR. I will give him a 100.
I LOVE PROFESSOR KNAPP! He knows what he's talking about and is so passionate about it! He's got a great sense of humor, cares about his students, and makes learning fun. Definitely recommend this guy to anyone, he's awesome. All you need to do is pay attention to his powerpoints and study! I would love to take another class from him.
He is amazing!!!! The best teacher you will ever have! He knows what he is talking about and he makes it so fun and interesting! He wants his students to understand the material and be successful so just go to every class and pay attention you will enjoy it i promise! I wish I could take him for every class I have !
Professor Knapp's class has been by far the most enjoyable experience I have had within education. He is hilarious, "real", and extremely knowledgable on Ancient Rome. The thing that makes him so great is his passion for what he teaches, its rather infectious. 10/10 would take this class again.
I love professor Knapp he made class very interesting and upbeat. Everything was easy to understand to fail this class you must not be trying at all. Does great with power points and is great with detail. and I took him online and in class both were great either which you choose.
Professor Knapp is a great teacher. He makes the subjects very interesting involves the students. I would recommend taking a class with him. He provides all necessary materials to succeed, you only have to study and pay attention.
GREAT CLASS!! He makes Rome super interesting and you get to watch movies! He gives you a study guide for the Midterm and Final and as long as you study those you are golden. You have a couple take home essays but they are cake.
A great lecturer. Professor Knapp is extremely knowledgeable and utilizes his knowledge to make the course more interesting.
Latin is a complicated language to learn, however professor Knapp has a casual style that engages students. Read and reread, you are expected to know the material, lots of memorizing, but he definitely makes it fun! Great professor, I highly recommend.
Second class I've take with Prof. Knapp, he is amazing! Love the lectures, he knows his stuff. If you want to learn and enjoy a great class TAKE HIM
He is one of the best professors,just study and you will pass
The class is wonderful. One of the benefits of studying a classical language like Latin is that you must also learn the culture of the people who spoke the language to really understand what is being said, and Prof. Knapp teaches is very well. Very down-to-Earth, intelligent, and humorous.
Best professor I've ever had. Made class interesting and fun. I hated when he cancelled class. The study guides were a cheat sheet. He's the best. Feels like an easy A, but you actually learn a lot. Knows exactly what he's talking about. Do not buy the text book.
Best humanities professor! You won't regret it.
He is a great professor. His lectures are funny and he will make boring topics interesting. His class is always fun. He gives pop quizzes but they are extremely easy. I would definitely recommend!
Best Humanity professor ever. He makes me love Rome. His lecturas are funny and you are going to learn in a different way. I would reconed him.
He is very funny and a great professor!
Great class great professor I would recommend him to anyone
Always looked forward to class. He is a great teacher and makes learning fun. You can tell he is very passionate about what he teaches. Learned a lot. Wish I needed another humanities just so I could take him again. Might do it anyway. 1010 And super fine.
Professor Knapp has a passion for teaching Humanities. He is funny and down to earth about the subject matter, engaging the students while allowing them to explore other cultures with an open mind. Highly recommend!
This is the most amazing and respectable professor in the world. He's extremely intelligent, but he's really down to earth too. He makes you feel comfortable enough that no question is ever too dumb to ask. Latin with Professor Knapp is the best!
Amazing professor. Mr. Knapp makes his lectures and learning exciting. As long as you go to class, listen, and study for the two exams you will pass this class.
He teaches with passion, and is a brilliant Instructor. He teaches Roman History in a way that you are eager to learn more, because of his teaching style. Lots of humor which keeps the class interested. He cares for your success, but overall you definitely learn a lot! Take Him!!!! Before his classes fill fast.....
Knapp is one of the funniest professors i have ever had. He lectures but he makes the topics so interesting and easy to understand. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. We had a midterm, final, and a couple essays but he gives helpful study guides and rubrics for everything.
Professor Knapp is such a great teacher!! He does lecture but he makes it so interesting and easy to follow! He doesn't give an overbearing amount of work, but he makes sure that you are following along and understanding the materials. The only time I used the textbook was for Part 2 of the midterm and final exam.
Without a doubt the best teacher I've ever taken. He's so into it and makes you want to learn. Anytime another student or I had a question he would make sure that you understood before moving on. If you pay attention in class the tests aren't too tough. He's actually funny too. If I had the chance I would definitely take one of his classes again.
Amazing teacher. Creates his lectures around things that people will understand. One small book required for the class but he creates powerpoints and handouts. Midterm and final with essays but he gives you a clear study guide. Loved this class and would reconmend for others and would take again.
Great teacher. Keeps lessons modern and interesting. Typically accepts late work if need be and awards effort. Always keeps you in the loop on assignments and provides great guidance. Rewards attendance with super easy pop quizes so showing up to class is reccomended. Easy going and relatable guy.
First and foremost THIS MAN IS GOD!!!!! Like he is the funniest teacher ever and so passionate about his humanities. It's 4 papers with clear instructions, the study guides really help too. Let me state again THIS MAN IS GOD OF HUMANITY TEACHERS!!!!!!! If you want to take a class and not be completely bored, then Knapp is where it's at.
Absolutely love him! best teacher on campus hes hilarious and makes the class very interesting. vary passable, take him you wont regret it
He's a hilarious professor. Very passionate when he teaches. He knows the material well and helps you understand what you're learning. He makes this class fun and you don't want to miss it or you'll miss his great personality and lectures. I recommend this professor heavy.
Favorite professor ever.
Great professor ! I would definitely recommend his class,he is very knowledgeable
Really easy class. Best professor ever. You learn a lot. There's barely any homework and it's really simple. Would recommend anyone to take him!!
Very youthful and funny. Clear on what was expected, and didn't give too much work. Cancels class every now and then.
Great Professor. Took Knapp for all my humanity courses.
He is a hilarious man that is passionate about what he teaches! I wish I could take him for all my classes
I have loved going to professor Knapps classes. He is very open minded, and enjoys his topic. He listens to his class. The only thing I don't like is he takes awhile to post grades. It was a couple months before I saw the first one posted.
Not a defined course syllabus to follow, stresses creativity so you won't get a lot of specific instructions on assignments. Show up, participate, do your assignments and you will have no problem passing.
I love him! Ive taken him for two of my humanities courses and I got an A in both! He is so funny and youthful! You will laugh EVERY TIME u go to his class. I almost want to be his friend in real life! his class is not stressful at all. Just follow along and you will be fine.
Attended first 2 or 3 classes then stopped going. All homework is online & you have 1 paper to turn in in person. Super easy A. I stopped going to lectures due to some false facts they he taught. He teaches the subject well but it's noticeable by some that he hasn't learned and studied Latin extensively. Do your work & you'll pace.
Professor Knapp is a must take! He changed my entire view on college professors! Straight forward, no book but his lectures and print-outs will get you through! He's a jokester but he knows his stuff & can speak different languages! Best professor I've had to date!
Professor Knapp is a fantastic professor! He was engaging during lectures and encouraged class participation. I'd take another class that he taught.
Knapp was amazing!! You can tell he is very passionate about what he does. His lectures make you want to give feedback and participate. He joked around with us while also teaching at the same time. I feel like i learned a lot in his class, even though he wasn't too lecture heavy. Would definitely enjoy having him as my professor again!
Great professor, One of the best Humanities classes I ever took. I learned a lot, He is very knowledgeable about ancient Greece in particular. Look forward to taking his rome class! Taught me things that i never knew, thought i was knowledgeable but i learned so much. Really cool guy, and easy to talk to.
Knapp is absolutely amazing and funny. When he lectures be ready, you do watch 3 good movies in the class that is part of your grade so stay up, 3 essays that are easy to do if you pay attention in class and watch the movies. No quizzes or exams. It's impossible to fail his class.
Great Professor and one of my favorite! Has a great personality you won't be bored in this class. If you do the work you'll pass.
Great Professor, if you show up to class and pay attention there is no way you won't pass. This is one professor I will take again he was wonderful and hilarious, definitely recommended!
This guy was hands down the best professor I have ever had. He really opened my eyes to what really goes on around us and is super relatable. He does a portion of his HUM 2020 class on poetry and it will really teach you how to read a poem.
Take him. No book required, he gives you Powerpoints. Easy class. A combination of short essays, easy quizzes and discussions.
I took him freshman year and as a junior I can honestly say he's still the best professor I've ever had. His classes are easy, but you still learn a lot. He's very passionate and educated about the subject matter and relates well to students. Highly recommend, but his classes can be difficult to get into as they fill up quickly!
I took him my first and my last semester he is amazing! His class was always interesting and his way of teaching allowed for people to really learn Follow the study guides as well, pay attention to his lessons in class and make sure you come and you will do fine Overall me and my service dog Bentley love him and recommend him! You wont regret it
Professor Knapp is amazing! I plan to take class with him every chance that I get! I am transferring to UNF next semester, but plan to take class with Knapp at FSCJ. (I will be paying out of pocket just to take his class) He was fun, funny, and caring! He wants his students to succeed, not because it looks good for him, but because he truly cares!
He's awesome. He focus on real life humanity more that textbook. we had to write a small paper every week about what we discussed in class, but he made the assignments so easy to understand. Please take him for you topic in humanity. because is the best. you cant fell his class unless you you don do the work or just don't show up in class
Super easy class .. show up do work you pass
Course was not what I expected but glad I took it. Professor was is way too fair in grading. He gives a lot of homework but then gain its not homework if you enjoy writing about the things that you learn and do in and out of class. I would say an easy A but you need to attend, participate in the class and do the work.
Professor Knapp is enjoys his job which makes this a great class to take. I would definitely recommend him. Im not an art connoisseur by any means but I definitely gained a small appreciation for certain types of art. Overall its a good class to take.
Professor Knapp is a wonderful professor. I passed with a B in the class. Make sure to take notes and pay attention to his lectures.
I learned so much from Professor Knapp. He makes you dig deep and really think before just giving him a generic response. He actually wants you to think outside the box. Show up for class, do the work and you will get a good grade and learn. No book required but you will read tons of articles.
Professor Knapp its excellent. I really really enjoyed this 7 week class. I actually learned so much, his material is very to the point, understanding and enlightening. He also gives great feedback that many online setting professors do not. There are 4 essays, the topics are challenging and make you think. There are 3 tests, all open notes.
Professor Knapp was the best professor I have ever had. He made the one class I was dreading one of my favorites. He is entertaining and he does a really good job helping you learn the information. I would 100% take his class again!!
He was an okay professor, pretty mediocre. Never had much interaction with him. There was a total of 7 assignments for a 7 week class, so beware each one counts as a major part of your grade. He never gave good feedback, just okay thanks yous. But overall, an easy A.
Professor Knapp has great energy! He is very passionate about Humanities. The course is not difficult but you will have to read and use your brain :)
Professor Knapp is able to make a boring subject entertaining, he is high energy, funny and willing to work with work schedules, illnesses, and parental responsibilities. 50% of what you will need to know is covered in class the rest is in the material he assigns you to read. All assignments can be submitted twice, time limits are liberal.
This is one of best professors I have ever taken. he really likes what is he teaching, and tries his best to make sure everyone understand. Respect to students, and let us share our opinions. Barely take on-campus class, but def worth it.
Topics in Humanities (Disease and Culture) I would highly recommend this course! The subject (content) is interesting and relevant. Professor Knapp is very knowledgeable about the course material and objective in his teaching to allow the class to form their own opinions!
Minimal assignments and quizzes. Very interesting essay prompts that require critical thinking about our culture today and how it relates to ancient cultures. Prompts are left wide open for creativity. Tests are very easy as long as you follow the study guides and read. Easy, clear grading expectations. Loved this class. I completed it in 3 weeks!
Probably the best professor I have had yet. You 100% need to take him and will have an amazing class no matter if its big or small. You will probably have 3 essays total. But he gives you plenty of time and is not a harsh grader over common mistakes. Wish he would teach my other classes
no textbook needed he provides material(four 20 questions exams taken online with two chances to take them three essays) engages students, understandable instructor, quick email response, advocate for his students, comical, clear understanding of what he expects, I wish all instructors follow his model of how to interact with students
Very rarely am I excited to read about an assignment, but I was always ahead in this class because I couldn't wait for the next module. Professor Knapp gives great, detailed feedback and is always encouraging and inspirational. I would definitely take a course taught by him again.
He'll relate the issues and events from the past, to current times.
can be unclear
I would take this class 100 times! It was so interesting like another commented stated I would read ahead. The class I took was about Disease and culture throughout history. Professor Knapp was super helpful and the assignments were very easy long as you read the material. 7 week course and passed with an A .
He is an easy grader. It is a fun class, but it still requires effort to get an A. He also replies to emails quickly for your questions, and he opens a discussion board for every module. He will announce the students every Friday morning to tell them what we will do next class. The final project is interesting because we build our own module.
His class was not hard. His class was my first online class and now I have a better opinion about online classes. Just do the work and go to tutoring. It was interesting to learn what was taught in this class.
Incredible professor. Fast at replying to emails and if you misunderstand anything he does a good job at helping/explaining how to do things. I 100% would take another class with him, and would recommend him to anyone who needs a humanities class still. His lectures are great as well, and he's really good at keeping energy up in the class.
Amazing lectures where he keeps you engaged. He balances learning with humor to keep the classroom light. He listens to his students. His grading is very fair. He supplies all the material need to pass his class. He is professional and very knowledgeable in his field and cares very much about Culture and how we are all connected.
This course was straight foward and not overly packed with assignments and quizzes which allowed study time. Overall great course and i would take again.
Pretty fair grader on essay's, there are a good amount but the essay's are fun and aren't that tough. If you complete the study guide, you WILL ace the test. Best study guides i've ever had. After taking the online course tho i wish i had gone to him in person.
For the A7 session, we ended up doing 3 essays, and 4 quizzes. I genuinely learned a lot about Disease and Culture & Professor Knapp was there to answer any questions. He is a very fair grader and has very clear expectations for your essays. I would take his course again. :)
Professor Knapp has been one of my favorites!! The material we learned was taught in a fascinating way and he was very motivating.
Professor Knapp made learning fun, and his lectures were inspirational. He has a great personality, was very knowledgeable about the subject material, and always found a way to get the whole class to participate. Professor Knapp provides clear instructions on assignments and good feedback. I recommend this professor!
Great class! Great structure. I had an amazing learning experience!
One of the Best Professors I have ever had the pleasure of taking.
I took a C7 (seven-week course in the back half of the semester), so everything was pretty truncated. I didn't learn much, but that is because I am an Anthropology nerd and already knew about 60% of what was covered. The teacher understood when I had a small mishap and let me turn in an essay late. Cool teacher. Would take it again.
Professor Knapp makes this class engaging and easy to learn. No textbook required, just his great lectures and clear expectations. Unstuckstudy helped me prep for the online exams. Definitely recommend taking this class if you need a humanities credit.
Professor Knapp was a gem of a teacher. To be honest, I did not want to take a Humanities class (it's not going to help me in my career). But since I HAD TO take a Humanities for a prerequisite, I thought the topic of diseases/plagues of the world was the most interesting. And my goodness it was! If you like history, you'll love this class.
I think Professor Knapp was amazing. The amount of reading was A LOT, however I found that it ended up being very informative. Being a some what fan of history, the idea of learning about disease as a topic was pretty clever. I learned a lot from this class and really enjoyed the reading selections chosen by Professor Knapp.
First time ever someone makes class history fun to attend.
Love this Professor ! Taught material that helped me gain more knowledge than what I already know. The classroom environment felt like we were all family
Professor Knapp is a very knowledgeable professor and cares about his students and wants them to success but also wants you to succeed and do well. I really enjoyed Professor Knapp and his lectures. I really enjoyed this class, and I did learn a lot about Diseases and Culture, and I am glad that choose this class.
I thoroughly enjoyed this class and feel I have finished Dr. Knapp's course with gained knowledge and understanding of the coursework. He was very involved and motivated to help us succeed in his class, keeping the coursework on our toes and maintaining fun, engaging lectures that encouraged the class to be cohesive and enjoyable. Would have again.
Dr. Knapp is an inspring professor. Excellent lectures and the assignments and tests are easy to understand to do. I highly urge people to take him!
Engaging and interesting! Exceptionally organized. Left little--no room for misunderstanding. The subject isn't easy- Knapp is just one of those rare teachers who actually teaches- by taking something difficult and making it easier to understand. Wish he taught other classes in other subjects required for my degree, because I would take them!
Fun & engaging! Exceptionally organized! Great lectures, interesting person. One of those rare teachers that actually teaches; by taking something overwhelming and making it easier to digest. Made me long for the days when one teacher taught all of the subjects- you will learn something in this class. There is little - no room for misunderstanding
Professor Knapp was great. HUM2020 is one of the first classes I took starting college and his class has encouraged me to continue. He's a great Professor, occasionally hilarious (if you understand his humor) and everything that you do (tests, assignments, and essays) will be taught in class. I would advise to opt for in-class - if possible.
Didn't think this would be a class I enjoy. Professor Knapp showed me how fun it is, and peaked an interest that I didn't know I had.
Don't be intimidated by all the reading. It actually starts go all make sense the more you read! This professor is always a message away to help out.
I have taken Professor Knapp twice for two different Hum classes, Both classes where super fun and very information. Professor Knapp is a amazing teacher and will gets you involved in the class to make it fun. As long as you take notes and listen to the professor you can not fail this class. Professor Knapp does everything to make you get an A!!
I really enjoyed this class and found it to be both engaging and informative. The material was presented in a way that made learning enjoyable, and I appreciated the opportunity to expand my knowledge. Overall, this class was a great learning experience, and I'm grateful for everything I've gained from it.
When I initially signed up for this class, I'll be honest I didn't have high hopes. However, Prof. Knapp exceeded my expectations. He always presented the material in an understanding way, he was always available if needed. I will say there is a bit of reading but nothing one cannot handle, and it is all needed. I appreciate his teaching style
second class with Professor Knapp and I've enjoyed both. His class is laid out smooth and all the information is easily accessible. He grades fair and true to his grading structure. He makes his course clear and simple yet you still need to do the work to pass. One of the few teachers I've learned from.
This class requires effort, but what you put in, you get back. The lectures were outstanding, and the professor is truly caring. Before taking this course, I didn't have much interest in history, but this professor makes the subject come alive in an engaging way.
Thoroughly enjoyed this class. Mr.Knapp is a very considerate, relatable professor. Just do the work and you will pass with flying colors.
It's not all work. It's conversations and real consideration for what you're the thinking. If you combat him, expect an in depth and RESPECTFUL debate with him. Even as a dual enrollment student, Professor Knapp is hilarious and when I think of him, I think: Life isn't fair. But he's a fair guy.
One of the best instructors at FSCJ, he helps you understand fully about the course work and gives positive ideas and tips on how to complete it
Incredible lectures that are both interesting and very educational. As a dual enrollment student, he's engaged and loves what he does. It's evident in his demeanor and the way he teaches. I don't like history, but if he taught another humanities class, I'd 100% retake it!
This professor was really sweet, and caring. He always made sure If we needed help to email him. I really didn't know too much about disease and culture before this. His assignments were detailed and well-structured, and he always took the time to ensure we fully grasped the concepts. I would for sure take his class again. Amazing class
This professor is one the few I really liked and learned so much from.
I loved taking Professor Knapp's class. At first, I thought I wouldn't enjoy it, but soon, I learned the material was much more interesting than I thought! The essay prompts were entertaining, too, and I enjoyed the writing assignments. He answered emails quickly when I had any questions regarding the course. He's a great professor!
Professor Knapp was very kind throughout the entirety of my course. He's not a tough grader, and he's very lenient when it comes to late work. As long as you do your assignments you'll get a good grade. His class material is also interesting, so I never dreaded any of my assignments.
Professor Knapp is a cool calm collected person, understanding and caring. He takes his time to explain the material. Gives great feedback and is wonderful to listen to. Highly recommended.
He will let you know when you are doing something wrong. An example is when I was doing a project, and If I was doing something wrong, he would try to contact me by inbox to let me know what I was doing wrong. I give him. Respect, and for that, he is a great Professor.
Professor Knapp was awesome, the course was exactly as expected. Get ready to read. Lots of essays but all prompts were open and fun to write about.
Professor Knapp is a very good professor in how he conducts his online class presence. He is also very knowledgeable and funny at times making you comfortable with the course work. He's a very patient person willing to help you in any area of understanding. I learned a lot of great aspects on life and culture in his course. Enjoyable class !!!
Professor Knapp was very kind and helpful. Always there to help grades quick and weekly video chats if you have any questions must take. I will choose him every time he is amazing.
Professor Knapp is one of the best instructors I've had. They explain the material clearly, make the class engaging, and genuinely care about their students' success. I always felt supported and encouraged to do my best
Amazing Lectures, Clear Grading Guidelines, Gave Great Feedback, and was Modern Day Hilarious.
Professor Knapp is amazing and helpful. He answers all questions you may have he grades quickly and weekly video chats if you have any questions, he answers everyone. He is Hilarious and cares about his students. Best teacher hands down I've ever had. There is a lot of reading but it's not boring at all. 100 out 10. The final project was very cool.
Professor Knapp is one of the best teachers I had. The class consist of 3 essays and 3 quizzes. as long as you read all the reading materials, you're good. Give yourself a big favor and take his class!
Take this class. Professor Knapp is awesome! There wasn't a lot of homework in the 7 week online class, but be prepared to write a couple of essays.
Professor Knapp is truly a great professor; you can tell he cares very deeply about what he teaches and about his students. Even though the class is online, he tries to stay connected with his students and get to know them personally. Overall, the class was very interesting, and the assignments aren't boring and are very interesting.
Professor Knapp is a top-notch Professor! He truly cares about Humanities/Culture, and he wants his students to absorb as much of it as possible. The quizzes and essays require a LOT of assigned reading beforehand, but the information is life changing, interesting, and worth learning. Highly recommend Disease & Culture - very transformative class!
He is an overall good professor; a simple course with a few quizzes and essays which are 750-1000 words. He's communicative, interactive and wants his students to do well. I'd recommend him to anyone, just read the required course material and you should do fine.
I appreciate that he appeals to all learning styles with a mix of reading materials and quirky videos. His study guides were spot-on and set me up for success. I truly did get a lot more out of this course than I expected to. Thoroughly enjoyed this course and wish more professors utilized his teaching style!
I honestly learned more in this humanities class than I have in any other one I've taken at this school. The way you explain things made the material feel real and connected to everyday life.I appreciated how thoughtful and organized the class was, and it pushed me to think differently. Thank you for teaching in a way that actually sticks.
Awesome professor, very well organized online course easy to navigate, and always sent out announcements as reminders!
Professor Knapp was my very first professor ever, and I greatly appreciated him because everytime i had questions he would answer within 24 hours, if im in class he makes sure we understand and if wedon't i felt comfortable asking any questions. He also made jokes and laughed with us, this class was only a few weeks long but I still enjoyed it.
Professor Knapp is a great professor, he is very straight forward with the expectations, and they aren't drastic "out of the norm" expectations. There were only about 7 assignments that were mainly quizzes and essays. There is lots of reading, but it was interesting and fun readings that helped your papers. He also encouraged to ask for help!
Professor Knapp is an outstanding instructor who brings genuine enthusiasm, clarity, and depth to every class. His lectures are well-organized and engaging, blending historical context, thoughtful analysis, and real-world connections that make the material feel meaningful and relevant. He encourages open discussion amd values student perspectives.
