The class consists of going through eras in art history and evaluating works of art with a group. You don't have to know what you are talking about in the discussion because there are some who get away with rambling nonsense. There is an online element that basically pats others on the back for talking about art. Caring professor that loves art.

This online class is for someone who likes to write rather than take tests. Her whole class is based on discussion posts and 3 papers. Both of which aren't hard for her class... although, she does require a certain number of words for everything. Not a hard class though!

The easiest class you will ever have! I was packing on six classes during spring semester and thought I was going to collapse. Luckily, this class was the best to fall back on (still kept up, obviously). 3 main essays, easy as can be. Only 3/4 pages. TAKE HER IF YOU GET THE CHANCE! She makes the class enjoyable. Attendance is a part of your grade!!

if you're an English major this class should be pretty simple. A response is due each week (300 words), there are 4 books I think (2 novels, 1 poetry, 1 short story) and we had to write a 1200 word essay for each. She has good taste in books except for "Casual Vacancy" by J K Rowling, that book pissed me off and it was dumb long.

Discussion and Feedbacks are the only homework you MUST do, or else it can really bring your grade down. Few essay requirements, but no more than 2. The only downfall is her lack of communication through email, sent her email asking about my grade never ever got a response even until the end of semester. So just do the work and you'll pass.

Prof Taylor is THE BEST. She's hilarious. 2 papers and 1 final paper. Canvas discussion posts and 3 replies to classmates. Very easy, but you learn a lot. Textbook lightly used, just use at the library if you can. Buy Illusions - it is cheap. Takes attendance.

Never updates grades... never knew my grade for the semester not one assignment was input on canvas. I feel like I would've done better in that class if I knew my grade

Attendance is graded and your entire grade is based one 3 essays. she does use the book and they are discussed in class however you can just use the one in the library. she assigns group work most of the time and there never is any homework besides the online discussions and the essays.

Weekly readings and discussions via Canvas. Sometimes up to 3 discussion posts required (minimum of 250-500 words sometimes) and 3 minimum responses to peers. Three major essays that are somewhat confusing. A lot of reading!

Do NOT take this professor. I missed ONE assignment and got a D. Its crazy amounts of reading and writing every week. I took this as an elective! I have taken many English classes and always got A's. I am still in disbelief over her grading criteria.

Lots of homework

I never knew my grade the entire semester. She doesn't enter anything in Canvas. Its so much reading and writing. Takes weeks to reply to emails. Not a good class if you're looking for an easy A. You might get a C if you try really hard or an A if you're only taking this class and not any others. Not recommended.

I agree with the others, she doesn't post any grades all semester so you don't really know and that's frustrating. But I did enjoy the class, as long as you do the weekly assignments and essays you should be good. It definitely is a lot of reading and writing, but it's an english class. I loved the novel she assigned, All The Light We Cannot See.

This is a very easy class. Every week we had two-three discussions and we had to reply to three other students. She provided an online book for us to read/ reference in the discussions. There were no tests, but we had three short essays. She responds very quickly to emails. However, she does not make grades visible on Canvas. Highly recommended!
