Great professor! She would have us watch documentaries and movies which kept the topic interesting rather than just lecturing over the book. There was a decent amount of reading so prepare but the textbooks are interesting compared to other history textbooks. Very passionate about the topic which helps keep students interested! Nice person too!

Stout is a super entertaining woman who definitely cares about her subject and her students. Real with her students & what she expects from them. She doesn't take any BS and will fail you if you do not put in the work. However, if you show interest, she'll notice. She's a cool lady. I took this pass/fail expecting to hate it but I didn't at all!

Very nice and easy.

Nice lady, easy A if you just do the assignments. weekly discussion and online quiz. I recommend getting the pdf for the textbook so you can search terms during the quizzes. 1 take home midterm and 1 paper. Easy grader, just follow the instructions and you'll get an A. 100 points EC so you don't have to show up for attendance ever if you do that.

Stout is an amazing professor if you tend to listen to stories. She gives all of her students a chance to reach 1000 points, so if you want an A, do all of the assignments, or go overboard and do extra credit. She takes the time to lecture on the stuff that we had to read before class began the following week. I would take her again for 110.

Prof. Stout is really nice and has an easy enough class with most class sessions just being watching videos with simple weekly quizzes and readings. It is a lot of reading though and coming to class can feel a bit dull with so many videos. It is an easy enough class to pass but isn't the most inspiring class either.

Great class and professor, learned a lot. Offers a lot of extra credit and makes the class interesting. I missed a decent amount of assignments and still received and A. Highly recommend.

Readings every week but the textbook is very interesting and simple. Weekly online quizzes and discussion posts about readings, not hard. Research paper seems intimidating but she tells you exactly how to write it. Her lectures are interesting and she shows lots of videos and movies. If you do the work, easy A.

Her class can be a little boring because of a lot of documentaries and listening to her lecture, but if you pay attention you'll pass. The quizzes are easy if you do the reading. She offers extra credit and really wants her students to do well. She works with you if you need help or extra time on things. Takes random attendance so show up to class!

This whole class is based on online work for points. In the beginning, she just plays videos in class to watch. Attendance does get mandatory towards the end of the semester because she does in-class work for loads of points. The final only adds to your current grade which makes it impossible to go down. 10/10 recommend

I really enjoyed Profesor Stouts History109 class. Weekly reading of chapters from the book followed by discussion questions and a quiz. Honestly, it is time consuming but prety easy if you do the work!

Her TA grades all the stuff, even the midterm. Hw consist of discussion questions from assigned readings + articles. some questions also came from videos. only need surface level answers to get full points on them. Does grade a bit tougher on midterm but not by much compared to homework. Nice professor, doesn't teach much but pretty easy class.

I liked her honors course a lot. She is an easy grader and assigns short reflections most weeks.

Proff. Stout is super nice and has great energy, you can tell she loves what she does! Although the reading is heavy weekly in this class, I found the information interesting and engaging. She assigns weekly discussion board posts and requires you to cite your work with every written assignment. Easy and fun A!

Stout is a great professor. Her class requires a textbook because you will need to read one chapter a week which is followed by a quiz and a discussion. Just do your work and you'll be fine.

Professor Stout is one of my favorite professors at SDSU! She's caring, friendly, and respectful towards students. You'll read lots of comics in this class! And I really enjoyed taking the time to read comics! She was super inspirational too! She inspired me to go explore comics in the SDSU library and city. There are easy weekly assignments too!

Super easy! Weekly readings with weekly quizzes that aren't difficult at all. Lectures are engaging too. Never took notes, just listened. One research paper due near the end of the semester but she tells you exactly how to write it.

History has never been my greatest subject but this is the best grade I got this semester. There are readings and discussion questions each week for homework which are a bit time consuming but not hard. There is a research paper/project that is worked on throughout the semester but the deadlines for each portion are clear.

The history of comic books and representation in them, very easy & entertaining. Around 2-3 graphic novels required for discussion boards, but they can be found online and are quick to read. Final projects are a group presentation and a 3-5 page paper about cultural representation in comics. If you like Marvel, DC, even anime, this class is for you

I normally don't enjoy history classes but Stout's class is actually enjoyable because you could tell she cared about the topic and is very knowledgeable. Class is pretty much mandatory as she covers much of what the weekly discussion posts are about. There's a research paper/presentation which was pretty easy and she helps you as much as you need.

Even though professor Stout assigns a lot of homework, it is very manageable and she grades very fairly. She is also very mindful of student's life outside the course and is easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend taking WMNST 341 B with professor Stout for the preparation it offers for other upper-division courses.

Professor Stout's class gave me a real taste of what I think majoring in history would be. Sometimes, it felt like a lot of work, but it was manageable. If you show up to class, follow to her directions and TAKE GOOD NOTES, you'll be more than okay. As for her email, use her non-sdsu one for quick replies. She provides it.

Very easy class, and the lectures are always easy clear. No tests or quizzes, but 1 midterm paper and 1 final paper. Weekly assignments help prepare for the papers.

One of my favorite professors and very easy class.

Professor Stout is a very caring teacher and it is a fairly easy class. I took this class as one day a week class and she rarely went over two hours. Attendance isn't necessarily mandatory but she does do attendance if there aren't many people in class. The class consists of weekly discussion posts and a paper due at the end of the semester.

She's so sweet and coming from someone who HATES history, I actually loved this class. Don't have to memorize dates or names or anything. Weekly-ish discussion questions that aren't very hard or long. No actual tests, midterm and final are discussion questions too. One big project but she breaks it up and it's easy to do well.

This class is very easy, however, there is a ton of work that is pretty boring to get through. Only one group project that is easy and you must present. She mostly just plays videos in class, and lectures are usually cut short. If you want an easy class to take, then take this class.

Make sure to attend each class, she has started to have in-class assignments to encourage students to come to class. Pretty easy class, only a couple of big projects but she gives the class a lot of time to work on it. If you take your time and follow the guidelines, you should get full points for every assignment.

Mary stout was a really easy professor. we didn't have any tests just essays for the midterm and final which were both fairly easy. Does some random in class participation question worth points but don't count for much, you can make it up by doing the extra credit she provides. Most of the homework is weekly questions with occasional video quizzes.

Professor Stout was an amazing professor. She gives plenty of extra credit. Does random participation days in class but can be made up easily through the extra credit. No tests, just take home essays. Really knows her stuff about history! Definitely take this class.

This class is graded by assignments that aren't at ball difficult, one presentation paper, and a final. The presentation is super easy and only needs to be about five minutes. Is overall very nice and I enjoyed her class :)

Pretty easy class, but time consuming considering the amount of reading. Lectures are boring but its only 50 minutes so it goes by pretty quick and most people are just on their laptop watching basketball anyway lol. She does random in class assignments to catch people not showing up but you can miss a few and still get an A

REALLY EASY CLASS. Just do the work and show up. It's a somewhat interesting topic if you're into comics. You have one term paper at the end (3pg) and one group project that is individually graded, which is nice. Just make sure you put some effort and you'll breeze through

Professor Stout was very good at adapting to changes that are unforeseen. Professor Stout gives amazing feedback and is always there for her students. She is amazing at explaining how to improve. It is difficult to fail her class. I would take her again.

i actually really like her. she is super nice and real and she understands that history isn't liked by many people and that they are just taking it bc they need to. her grading is not bad and her assignments are very straightforward. shes a great teacher! if you go to office hours too she loves that!

shes cool & understands that not every student loves to learn ab history. weekly discussion modules r fine as long as u quote the textbook. class is usually a slides lecture followed by a long video or several short ones. never fully used the almost 3 hr time period, always finished class early. instructions can b confusing, but u can ask 4 help

I honestly really liked her, really funny and taught interesting parts of history. Weekly discussion questions were straightforward and graded nicely. No multiple choice or memorization at all which was nice. Midterm and final were just longer discussion questions you did from home any time. Always ended class at least 15 mins early.

Attendance is taken 90% of the time, doesn't affect grade too much. Lectures usually done by 5:30-6, never left later than 6:15. Weekly modules due on Sunday, typically 2-4 questions per weekly module. Can answer most questions via online required textbook, need to site ur quotes. Tests are the same format as the modules, just worth more points.

She made history relatively interesting to learn, assignments are easy to do as long as you follow along in class. Lectures went from 4 - 6:40 but we were almost always out before 6.

Very easy class w/ simple 1-3 weekly assignments (some do require a lot of writing tho). Accepts ALL late work. We had a big class, so she never took attendance, but every once in a while had an in-person assignment. Lectures consist of watching 30-60 min long videos majority of the time. Only two big projects: final essay and group presentation.

Overall a great teacher, she likes to joke/chat with the class. Some lectures can be very boring(watching a long video). Many people do not show up to lectures, but being present makes the course very easy. Simply apply yourself in class and complete the homework and you will have a very easy time in this course.

Really chill class if you're looking for a history or art credit. Attendance is "mandatory" but she doesn't always take attendance. We just watch videos in class and usually there's one discussion post or reflection due on Sundays. There's one easy group project and a final paper.
