Very helpful and funny little man. His comments on people from history are pretty funny. Explains everything really well.

A great teacher and is very understanding. The test are straightforward and you get good perks for going to class.He is very funny and a nice man.

I LOVE HIM! he is an awesome teacher. Go to class, he makes history fun and interesting. I mean it still is a class so sometimes it gets lame, but still, he is a great teacher! Hilarious man from beauregard!

He is one of the best teachers I had at Auburn University. He is so funny and very approachable! He makes his classes so fun. He always helps you when you need it.

his class is hard but he is one of the best teachers that i have ever had

He is a very interesting professor and he makes his class interesting. Please go to class and pay attention because the notes you take will help you tremendously on the tests.

TAKE HIM! He is really funny and the tests are really easy if you do the study guide. Tests are multiple choice, some fill in the blank (easy ones), and maps. Easy A! Makes History fun!

i never knew history could be so interesting!!! still..you have to know this material in depth! and by the way...he's hilarious! says some outright crazy stuff all the time! HE KNOWS HIS HISTORY! GET HIM!

I liked his teaching. Good lectures. Made History interesting... somehow. But his tests are the hardest EVER. If your ok at History you'd like him, but i never really liked History to begin with.

Very funny during lectures. will keep your attention. tests are not east as pie, but alot of folks do pretty well.

Very interesting class. Not his exact area of expertiece, but still well versed. Also, final exam is multipule guess, which is THE HARDEST TEST I've taken at AU. Fair grader on paper and other tests.

This man is HILLARIOUS!!! He is really hyper and cracks jokes all the time. Be sure you can write fast b/c his lectures are tedious, but they are very interesting. DO NOT blow off studying for his tests!!!

I LOVE DR. KICKLIGHTER! He is such a great teacher and is always helpful. He really knows what he is talking about...and his tests are hard. Just study the lecture notes and you will be ok! (and the maps!!!) He is always funny and makes the class interesting. Take this class!

Here is the real deal about Kicklighter. I took him three years ago as a Freshman. He is the funniest and most knowledgeable guy you will meet but if you are not in a frat or soroity and don't have a test bank with his test forget about it. The only way I pulled a B in his class was because I kne

very funny guy, makes the class interesting to listen to, but very very hard tests. i studied sooo much and got a C in the class.

Very fun professor.His tests can be hard, but if you go to class and read the book you will do fine.he is so much fun that you will want to go to class.he makes history interesting and fun to learn.

Kicklighter is my favorite professor so far. His class was challenging but not at all impossible. As long as you know the study guide like the back of your hand before the test you will do fine. I highly recommend this professor!!!!!!!!!!!

Tests are very hard. He gives a study guide, but it takes a long time to fill out and learn. If you dont have the time to devote a week of studying before the test then get an old test. Maps are tough. Overall he is interesting and funny, but doesnt cover all test material in class.

Great class but tests are very hard. His grading method makes a good grade very possible though.

A very helpful professor. It is a necessity for you to go to class, study your notes, and read the book. If you don't understand go see him during his office hours. Also the S.I. sections help. He has a very fair grading system. When you take history try and take his class.

Kicklighter is probably one of the best history professors out there. Plus his little snipits are hilarious. Test are split into 3rd- fill in the blanks, multiple choice and map. By far the map is the hardest part. He also gives 3 extra credit questions on the test that are worth 1 point.Take hi

I had this guy for both World History 1 and 2. He is very nice and quite funny. His tests aren't that easy unless you get ahold of his old tests which aren't that much different. For World Hist. 2 I got an A, but for 1 he wouldn't give me a B b/c I misspelled "glorious revolution" by one letter "u".

It's not an easy class, but he's the best teacher for that subject. Made me want to go to class because well he made it interesting with his witty little comments.

I LOVE dr. kicklighter! he is hilarious! the tests are tricky with the fill-in-the-blanks and maps, but if you know the study guide backwards and forwards, you'll do fine.

He's a good teacher, but sometimes his tangents make you lose focus. His tests are impossibe unless you know every single detail and everything about that detail. You have to spell on the fill in the blank and most of the time they are tricky words.

Dr. Kicklighter has a great classroom instruction presence. He is very familiar with the material and will try to explain it whenever his students have problems. If you take his class you will have to study.

Class is very interesting. He really knows his material but you have to do a ton of studying! Must read the book and know every bit of material on the study guides. If you read and study then it is an easy A. Tests are tricky with fill in the blanks but just study!

Very fun class. Test are HARD. Go to class, and read everything in the book, and the study guide. Maps and fill in the blanks are difficult, but 2nd two tests (final included) were simple. Tests are also scaled, so your best counts for the most.

LOVED Dr. K. Very knowledgeable, very funny. He's been teaching at AU since the late 60s, and people enjoy him now as much as back then. Tests are quite hard, though, so don't expect an easy A, but come to class and study, and you should do fine.

Dr. Kicklighter is fabulous! His lectures are interesting and he is willing to help his students out. If you miss a class, he seems happy to go over the material with you. Tests aren't difficult if you use his study guide and read the book and go to class everyday you shouldn't have a major problem. He is one of the best professors at Auburn!

he was an awesome teacher. he knows what he is talking about and he makes it interesting to learn. he cracks jokes all the time about what you are learning so you want to pay attention to not miss any. his tests are hard but if you look at the study guide and take good notes it shouldn't be a problem

He's a really interesting teacher, BUT his tests are pretty in dept. The study guides are helpful but it takes a while to finish them. If you get the old tests for the first couple of tests it'll help you out alot! If you can get someone else easier (especially for freshman)I would! You have to put forth alot of effort!

Kicklighter is one of the best profs I've had. His teaching is very interesting, and tests are not bad at all. He usually weights tests so that your highest counts for 40%, next is 30%, and so on, so your lowest counts for 10%. He gives excellent study guides. Not a difficult class. (I'm a senior, so I have lots of others to compare it with.)

He is a good teacher, but his tests are EXTREMELY HARD! Get the University notes, read the book and do the study guide and you'll be luck to pass the test! His grading scale is awesome though, lowest test score =10%, then next =20% the next =30% and the highest is 40%....get an atlas to, it helps with the maps!

The most animated teacher I've ever had, would not trade the experience for anything, but I will not take another one of his classes. B/c he's a very hard grader, I've never had a professor rephrase sentences, that were already gramatically sound. Mid-term(30%), final(30%), paper(30%), participation/attendance(10%). You'll learn a lot of new vocab.

Really funny in class, keeps you awake. Does not give any homework, grade is solely based on tests. Tests are really hard. If you missed 3 or less classes he bumps your grade up a few percentage points at the end of the semester. If you buy UNOTES and study the study guide he sends you for each test you should make at least a B.

Dr. Kicklighter is AMAZING! It is a comedy show every class period and makes you interested in going to class. Hard test but it is college. I wish I could take more of his classes...he is GREAT! Take Kicklighter if you enjoy laughing and learning.

Dr. Kicklighter's class is a joke! If you have any of his previous tests then you will notice that the majority of the questions are the exact same. I've had all the tests so far and made high A's! Just find his old tests and the class will be a breeze. He is the most comical and entertaining teacher on this campus! No one will argue with that!

He makes learning about history both fun and entertaining. You can tell that he really enjoys teaching and being around his students. His tests can be hard, but not if you get his old tests!!

All I did was buy the UNOTES and I did fine. Fun teacher too.

Dr. Kicklighter is one of the best professors here! His tests can be tough but if you go to class and take notes, do the study guide, and go to S.I. you'll do fine. You will have to study to get a high grade but it isn't bad. He makes lectures interesting and entertaining. Take him if you can, you'll be glad you did.

All I can say is awesome! He is one of the most amazing people I have ever met. He is willing to help with anything. Plus he gives a study guide! Love him! TAKE HIM IF YOU CAN!!!!

Dr. Kicklighter is so funny. He has been teaching at Auburn for like 40 years. He is smart and he knows the information very well. Class is entertaining...I enjoyed going each day. But on the other hand the tests are VERY HARD. You have to study A LOT and know the stuff very well. Multiple choice, fill in the blank, and maps.

He was great for Historians Craft, very funny and gets to know EVERYONE in his class. He's very personal and knows everyone's life stories. His quizzes are hard though, they are very random and sometimes confusing multiple choice questions on the readings. GREAT TEACHER!!

Dr. Kicklighter is one of the best professors here at Auburn-very passionate, plus he's hilarious. Class was always great. The tests: there are 3 + a non-comprehensive final. If you miss 3 classes or fewer and are borderline letter grade, he'll bump you up. But you shouldn't be borderline: do the study guide, and you will make an A. That is all.

Kicklighter is one of my favorite professors here! His tests can be tough but if you do the study guide, go to class, and go to S.I. you'll do very well. I also recommend going to his office the week of the test: he drops lots of hints as to what will be on the test.

AMAZING!!! I hated history until I took his class. He his very funny and interesting. Get old tests and make sure you read the book. Go to class because he will bump a borderline grade up if you don't miss more than three days. Easy B, and an A is definitely possible.

I think I took every class this man taught. Very knowledgeable. Can be curt. Hysterical lecturer. You will learn so much vocabulary while taking his classes... he writes big words on the board after he uses them in the lecture and sometimes gives pop quizzes the next day in insure that you've looked them up overnight. Genius.

Oh my gah, Dr. Kicklighter is the best. He makes history fun and he takes time to learn the names of all 200 fo his students.He reminds me of that midget guy Beverly from Will & Grace that Karen hated at her country club.

His test are really hard and confusing! Too much material

My god, this is my all time favorite professor hands down. The class is easy sauce and all you have to do is go to it. Go to class, take notes, look up the words and readings you'll get an A. Go to class and take notes you'll get a B. Go to class sometimes and take notes, you'll get a C. Show up every now and then and maybe take notes, count on D-

I LOVE THIS MAN! He is HILARIOUS and the best teacher Ive taken at Auburn. He truly loves his students and his job. The key is getting old tests and going to class. If you have good attendence he'll bump your grade up. I loved going to his class and his lectures were intersting just because he explains stuff on the students level. TAKE HIM!!!!

easy class. just go and take notes, easy A. although, the powerpoints arent always that helpful for doing the study guides he posts online

Professor Kicklighter is definately my favorite teacher so far at Auburn. He is the cutest little man, and his lectures are histerical! Everything is interesting, and if you don't get something he can go to it from a different way so you get it. TAKE HIM IF YOU CAN! The worst part of this class was his horribly dressed and Horribly annoying GTA's.

Smart man, really knows his stuff. Class is pretty tough though and he tends to get sidetracked often in class. Read the book, take excellent notes, and MEMORIZE THE MAPS and you will do alright.

I like this guy personally. In his lectures, he would start on a topic, and then as my hand sat waiting on the rest of the info to write, he starts chasing rabbits with random stories...The problem for me in his class was, I seldom knew when he was done chasing the rabbits and back on the real topic of discussion. Hard to take good notes from him.

You need to take this man. He is entertaining, moves quickly and gives a study guide. if you know the entire study guide, you will get an A.

Harder than his 1010 class, but not that bad, just study a little more and expect questions that have nothing to do with the study guide.

LOVE this guy! He's an amazing teacher, one of those people who was born to be a teacher. One of my favorite teachers at Auburn. His lectures are hilarious! His tests are difficult though. Keep up with the reading and studying, and DO NOT wait til the night before the test. DO NOT skip class. It's not mandatory but it will REALLY help you.

Such a chiller, used story-style lectures to teach history and make it entertaining as well as clear. I didn't do too well in HIST 1010 but learned how to take his tests and rocked out second semester

He's soooooo funny! There is no question that I love attending his class because he's just an old southern guy that tries to be hip. He's hilarious. He knows what hes talking about but make sure you read. The tests are the only hard part about him. I love Kicklighter

BEST TEACHER EVER! take him for any history class you can. by far my favorite teacher i've ever had. he's hilarious and he knows what he is talking about! come to class and you'll do great.

AWESOME TEACHER! He is SUPER clear on exactly what he wants and what you need to do to get an A in his class from day one. As long as you go to class and keep up with the reading you should be fine! I was really worried about history because it is not my best subject, but he makes it fun and interesting! TAKE ANY CLASS YOU CAN WITH HIM!!!

I hate history but I am intertained evreyday in class. It is sometimes hard to fallow him inbetween his stories of Chick-fil-a and what not and the actual lecture. But he will provide you with a good laugh. Some say he reminds them of the guy on Family Guy... he is one of a kind! HAHA

Kicklighter is a great old man. His teaching style is great, even though he goes off on random stories at times, it is still good. If you sit up front he will talk to you, but it's pretty funny when he does. Go to class and take notes. If you use the study guides, like actually use them, you will come out with an A. No worries.

Professor Kicklighter is entertaining and makes going to class somewhat worthwhile. The study guides are long and vague, while his lectures don't cover all of the material you are lectured on. He's a funny guy that will make you laugh, but if you want a good grade, look at someone else.

I love his class and i look forward to it everyday. Everybody doesn't like history but he makes it worthwhile. He gives you a studyguide so USE IT, it really is helpful. He may not cover everything in lecture but that's why you have a book. Overall he is a good caring guy and loves what he does.

This class was harder than when I took him for 1010, but saying that you shouldn't worry because it was still easy. Seemed like there was more emphasis on the book this time, which I wasn't expecting. Generally everyone who doesn't like him hardly ever comes so people should know that about these ratings. Best professor at Auburn though easy.

Very good teacher, made history interesting for me and had no problem going to classes. Everything you need is in lecture, take good notes, and when filling out study guide (everything need to know is on this which he gives you) anything which may have been from book just go online for. Was glad to have gotten a teacher this passionate

Took him for World History 2 got an A. Not a bad teacher, many of the things on the study guide have to be found in the book as the slides don't cover all the material. The U-Notes helped out a lot too.

Great Professor. Adds humor to history which makes it entertaining. Bring a dictionary. He likes to throw bigs words at you and ask what they mean. Tests are relatively easy if you take notes. Go to class and participate. He'll like you more. Only 4 grades for the class so do work.

Very interesting approach to History

Dr. Kickligher was an amazing teacher. I was hesitant to take him because of his reviews of being hard, etc. He rambles during lectures, but if you listen, you will get the main points. Go to SI. It helps a lot. Go to his office hours. he explains alot. read book for study guide terms not mentioned in the lecture and you'll be fine

Awesome teacher. His tests are pretty hard, but he gives you a study guide. Go to SI, you'll be fine without even hardly opening the book. He'll help you with grades that are close if you go to class. He rambles a bit during lectures, but they are very entertaining. Take him, it's worth it to have a fun class.

dr.Kicklighter is awesome while his tests are hard if you can actually man up to what studying for a college class is like your first semester in it really really helps in the future when you wish you were still taking his 1010. He knows his history so well he makes it funny the lectures were entertaining, and he is pretty friendly

Dr. Kicklighter's class was very interesting and he makes it enjoyable. I took it during a summer mini-semester. It was a faster pace, however he enjoys teaching the summer classes, so I would recommend trying to take him then. He makes an effort to learn your name and if you do well he has no reservation about helping you out. Great professor.

He's cool. His tests are a bit rough, but everything's on the study guide. I always enjoy listening to his lectures.

His lectures are pretty entertaining. Few things to help though. He has the TAs walk around and make sure you aren't on Facebook. The Study Guide is good for a high C or low B on the exams, it doesn't include everything. Be sure to read the text! That is where everything comes from. The map questions are also stupid.

Very nice, very helpful, very funny, but can get off topic and test dont correlate to his lectures that much

Very funny, energetic, and helpful teacher. Loved his lectures, although he gets off topic a lot. Clearly loves what he does. GO TO THE SI SESSIONS! They helped me a lot. Do NOT fall asleep in class because he will embarrass you. Also, stay off Facebook, because the GTA's will mark you absent if they catch you browsing the internet. Study HARD!

Kicklighter was a very interesting and funny professor. I would gladly take him again! For tests, I recommend reading through the book.

Morphus got a hold of me alot, but he was an awesome teacher. Easy A.

Kicklighter is a fun guy. Go to class because if you're borderline grade he'll bump you up. Lectures are entertaining, take notes! Read the book thoroughly. I studied very hard and made an A. It definitely takes effort but the material isn't too terribly bad, just read-including the articles! Good luck!

Kicklighter is great; he's my favorite professor at Auburn. He makes everything interesting, he's really funny, and he's fair-minded. He's certainly not the easiest professor, but to go class, read, and contribute, and you'll be alright. I made an A and had a wonderful time. Definitely taking many more classes from him in the future!

Makes class engaging and fun! He is tough but fair. But his lectures kept me engaged... Real easy tontalk to if you have questions too

Kicklighter is awesome. His tests are incredibly hard but his grading scale makes your worst test almost not matter. He is hysterical and extremely smart. Yes, the class is incredibly hard, but you will learn a lot and be entertained. He won professor of the year in 2008 for a reason. Bottom line: hard but worth it.

Entertaining and helpful. If you like history and interesting stories, Kicklighter is a lot of fun, but you have to go to class or you will be hopelessly lost.

If you go to class every day and take good notes, there is no reason why you wont do well in this class. Make sur eyou read the essays in the book the night before the test because he always puts one or two questions from those on there. Multiple choice tests, and a couple basic maps. Pretty straight forward history class.

He's a cool dude, took his World History 2 class this summer; he held study groups the day before each test and reviewed during class.

Great teacher. With the higher level stuff he warns you it will be hard, and holds you to that. He does ramble off on things at times, and makes you wonder, "did he really just say that?" no quizes or anything on the readings, but comes test time you had best have done them. No way to pass if you dont go to class. Notes are a guide not everything

He is an excellent World History teacher. I re-learned all the history I learned in high school in his class and had a good time doing it because he is pretty funny, albeit strange sometimes. All I did was show up to class everyday, take notes, and go to Bobby's SI review session the night before the tests. Didn't really even have to study.

TAKE HIM. Absolutely incredible professor - loves what he does and teaches history like it's a story. He is extremely funny and easy to pay attention to. I went to all the SI sessions for his class and easily came out with an A without really studying. Be sure to take notes not just on the powerpoint but on everything he says, too. Loved him!!

Dr. Kicklighter is a good teacher. You can tell he loves what he does. He tells history in an interesting way, like it's a story. You have to read the book chapters and study a lot to do well on the tests. I could have easily received an A if I studied more.

His jokes and stories in lecture are funny at first, but then they just get old. His tests are pretty fair, but lecture is useless...

Very clear. He is into what he teaches. His test are very hard having; multiple choice, fill in the blanks, and geography section.

Read the book! Show up to class! Less that 3 absences = final grade being bumped up by 2 points. If you want an A, go to the SI sessions - Bobby is beyond amazing! Kicklighter is lots of fun, but his GTAs are blockheads. They disrupt class constantly, and have an unwarranted superiority complex. Volume control is a difficult concept for them.

Best teacher I've had at Auburn hands down. He loves his subject and is hysterical, his lectures are amazing. He's very helpful at office hours, especially if you like history. I found his tests fairly easy, but you MUST read the book, especially the articles and practice maps. Loved this class and highly recommend Dr. Kicklighter for any class.

I loved Dr. Kicklighter!! I took every class he offered. It is true that his test can be difficult, but as long as you attend class and actually do the readings you should be fine. He has a great personality and is obviously passionate about his subject.

Dr. Kicklighter is awesome! I really do not care about World History at all, but he is so enthusiastic about dead people that it sparked an interest for history in me, and that by itself is a miracle! If you just go to class and the SI sessions then you'll definitely be ok in this class.

History bores me to death but Dr. Kicklighter breathes life back into these people. He'll walk around the whole room acting out scenes from historical events. You have to get used to his teaching style-he won't outright say what happened, you'll have to draw facts from what he says. He's fun though so take his class if you can!

Dr. Kicklighter is awesome. He makes history interesting. You do have to read the book to do well on his tests. It can be annoying but take it from expierence, spending a few hours reading the chapters in the book is way worth the good grade youll get. His lectures aren't amazing but if you go to class and READ THE BOOK you will do great!

Dr. Kicklighter is great! His lectures are hysterical and he really makes it interesting. I am not a fan of recent history, but he made it fun. His multiple choice can be tricky. Read the book, know what he articles are about (he loves them), and take notes in class, the final was mostly from class notes, but not comprehensive. If you can take him!

Kicklighter is awesome. Yes you have to read the book, yes you have to listen, and yes you have to take notes. BUT you won't walk away without having learned something. He's truly passionate about teaching and history in general. TAKE HIM

This class is easy if you read the assigned readings in the textbook and go to class. Kicklighter is awesome.

Dr. Kicklighter is extremely entertaining and teaches history like one big story. You have to attend class and do the assigned readings other than that notes from lecture are about all. He is a great teacher and is willing to do what he can to help you succeed. Take him if you can.

His lectures aren't mandatory but I really enjoy them. He tells history like a story and the comments he makes and characters he impersonates are hilarious. Most of the test material comes from obscure parts of the textbook so if you don't read, you're not going to pass. Pretty difficult but manageable if you know how to study on your own.

Dr. Kickligher is great. He always keeps your attention through his humorous lectures. The SI's are essential to passing the class, as is taking notes and reading the textbook. You have to work for your grade. The tests are multiple choice, fill in the blank, and map based. You have to know your stuff, but he does make it fun. NO ESSAYS! I suggest.

He makes his test ridicously hard and if you are looking for an easy A do not take him. I have worked my butt off and still only have a C. Nice guy but take someone else

I love this man. He is hilarious and an amazing teacher, relating the history he teaches to modern situations. He has a lot of jokes and if you're having trouble in his class, just go and see him; he's really helpful. His tests are pretty hard but if you go to class and read the book, you'll be fine. I definitely recommend him.

I made a 68 on the first test by barely studying. Then I started making quizlets, went to two SI sessions to be able to get the practice test, and studied the map. I made a 94 on the second test! The way he weighs test made it so i could still have an A. funny guy! interesting class!

Dr. Kicklighter is an incredible instructor. He is a very kind man and is very willing to assist his students. As with most 5000 level courses, this is no walk-in-the-park. However, he is a VERY fair grader. Attend lectures and do the readings, and you will be fine. He also has a very unique sense of humor. Never a dull moment.

Kicklighter is a very funny guy who makes lectures fun. You will need to read the book for every chapter. His tests are composed of 20 Multiple Choice, 20 Fill in the blank, and 10 map questions. He gives a study guide so its not that hard, but you have to read to know your stuff. I enjoyed his class and am taking him for 1020.

Dr. Kicklighter is a great professor! It is clear what he expects from you right off the bat. You will have three tests over the course of the semester and a final that is not comprehensive. He also boosts your grade if you miss 3 or less unexcused days. His lectures are entertaining and he really knows what he is talking about!

OK so this is a super easy class if you show up(cause its mandatory) and you fill out the study guide and know the whole thing. Seriously its not hard. Also he is hysterical

Although the topic was one that was one that was not my favorite he had a way of weaving a narrative that made an uninteresting topic lively and enjoyable. Read, come to class, and remember specific details correctly for the test and you'll be good to go. You HAVE to take more notes than what he provides on the power points.

Kicklighter is a legend at Auburn. He's been here for years and he's one of the most dignified professors on campus. That being said, his class isn't easy. Had Bohanan for 1010 freshman year and she was much easier. His lectures are hilarious and he's happy to talk about material during office hours but you'll have to work to do well in his class.

I took dr. Kicklighter my first semester as a freshman and loved it so much that I took him again for World Hist. 2 my second semester. It's not an easy class but he made it enjoyable with his antics. Read the texts he assigns and study well before the night before the exam. Also, learn the maps because it's an easy 10 points on the exam

Professor Kicklighter is very engaging. He makes an effort to get to know his students. He is very witty and humorous. His tests are straightforward if you pay attention and study. Look up all words you don't know in the readings because he will ask you about them in class. Read the boxes in the textbooks for test questions. 3 tests. 1 book review.

I loved him and he is amazing. He really made me who I am and gave me the love to teach History.

Dr. Kicklighter is an awesome professor. Greco-roman was a very fun course. If you memorize his powerpoints and read the boxes he says to in the textbook, the exams are straightforward - you know it or you don't. A funny man who really cares about you and your success, but he isn't going to spoon feed you. Do the work and its very doable. 12/10.

4 exams in our class, each worth 25%, none were comprehensive. He's a hilarious guy and lectures are more conversational than anything else (think rambling uncle). Reading the book is a must because he often gets off track but expects you to know basically everything. If you learn well from reading, you'll do fine

Tough course, average was a 74 in my class. He is a republican Joe Biden and likes to get really close to his students and talk in their ear. Beware outside rows. Attendance is a must and you MUST read the book to get an A, or even B. He is really nice, though, and is more than willing to meet you in office hours to go over your test.

Prof. Kicklighters lectures are simple. The slides dont explain much, so you have to listen to what he says. Hes funny, but he can get off topic some days. Your grade will consist of 4 tests, which are multiple choice. Hes nice. Hes clear about his expectations. If you have 3 or less unexcused absences hell consider rounding your final grade.

Dr. Kicklighter is such a great person! I am NOT very good at history & found his class challenging. I started going to his office hours once a week & he did everything he could to make sure I was prepared going forward. He also showed lots of care for my personal life as well. At the end of the semester he rounded me from 88 to an A for my effort.

He clearly loves the subject and wants his students to do well. Had three exams (final not cumulative) and a book review, all worth the same. If you pay attention to lectures and read the textbook, he pulls from the individuals and events he shows the most interest in. As long as you try and show some enthusiasm when participating, youll do fine.

Dr. Kicklighter is the sweetest man you will ever meet. The lectures can be a little boring content wise, and he can get off topic, but he cares for his students and wants to make sure theyre satisfied with their grades. I went to office hours once a week and saw significant improvement in my grades. If he sees you put in effort, you will pass.

Dr. Kicklighter is amazing, students just don't want to read and blame him. His lectures can be tough to follow, but his help in office hours fully prepares you. I have never read the textbook and got a 98% in the class, the only grades are tests.

He gives a detailed study guide, and you can ask him about anything on it that you don't understand and he will give you the answer. You have to read the book, and pay attention in class. He is a story teller. I have never been a test taker but I always feel prepared. He is extremely straight forward on his exams if you know his study guide well.

Kicklighter is very lecture heavy but it is important to listen to what he says bc he gives hints to what will be on the test which makes reading and studying easier. He loves to use the textbook so even if you don't go to class you can just read the chapters and do fine. He also is just fun to listen to bc he jokes around and is passionate.

I love this guy. He walks around the room and does impersonations of historical figures/other countries the entire time. Lectures don't help at all though. His tests are not that hard if you read the textbook and study the study guide he. I would do both the night before the test, and made A's on all. Pray you don't sit on the outside though.

Dr. Kicklighter cares so much for his students.Your grade is solely based on four exams, and questions come from the required textbook. The study guides are not helpful, so read the textbook. GO TO CLASS because he is extremely generous with rounding grades if you make attendance a priority. Speaking from personal experience here.

Kicklighter was one of the favorite professors I've had. When it comes to the way he teaches, it's not the greatest I've had. Your grade is based on 4 tests which is kind of frustrating, but if you do attend class you get 2 bonus points. Along with that, his study guides are a little messy but they are really helpful for studying for the exam.

He is very sweet, but if you don't have time to put in the work for this class, don't take. 4 tests are the only grades. Attendance is not required, but if you have less than 3 absences, he will look at rounding your grade. Tests are easy if you listen in lectures, read the textbook, ESPECIALLY the passages that he speciifcally assigns.

I loved Dr. Kicklighter! He's a very funny and caring old man who is extremely knowledgable about history. If you aren't good at history I wouldn't recommend him though. The only grades are 4 tests which really aren't hard if you do the study guide and read the passages he tells you to read. He also does assigned seats which I personally liked.

Graded on only 4 exams. 3 regular, and the last being a largely non-comprehensive final. Can occasionally be dull, but he keeps it as interesting as history can get. Attendance recommended but not necessary. I didn't do great but that was on me. Be prepared for the tests which requires taking in a lot of information

Like another reviewer, I took Joseph Kicklighter's medieval history class in 1977 when he was teaching at Emory. He seems to have continued he same approach to teaching. He is amusing, even if not inspiring, which was suited to the subject matter. His characterization of medieval rulers are about all I remember. I felt lucky to escape with a B.

Professor Kicklighter's lectures can be dense, but he's engaging and passionate about history. Doing the textbook readings and using unstuckstudy ai for study prep really helps. Attend class to get the grade bump if you miss less than 3.
