Webb was a great teacher. The Class was middle eastern History. The only hard thing about the class was that alot of the names sounded similar that you had to study. Dates aren't a big deal and taking notes and be in class mixed with a lil' hard work will really pay off I promise. Just try...you'll do fine.

He doesn't stay on track with the syllabus so don't bother trying to plan too far ahead for his class. He shows up late often. He may take up to two weeks for his students to receive graded exams.

As long as you read the chapters and take good notes you will do fine. No visual aids, just straight lecture, so you have to pay attention. He goes off on random tangents but he's nice to look at. Show up to class because attendance is part of your final grade. Decent class and even if history is not your thing this class is worth taking.

Professor Webb is definitely a cool guy, without a doubt. But let's be honest, as a teacher, I'd avoid him. If you're taking History 101 or 102 because you think it will be easy (if you plan to take it with him) you're mistaken. His tests are almost all writing and he expects you to know a lot in great detail. Lesson: great guy, difficult class.

Made his lectures very interesting and funny. Tests on stuff mainly in his lectures but some questions can be from the book. Tests can be hard for someone who is not great at memorizing. Actively cared about students. Does base a part of the grade on participation and attendance.

His classes were hilarious and engaging. He was always trying to connect the dots to modern day events that would help us understand things easier. He would constantly make conversation with you every single day, and that was amazing to be part of. Especially if it was your first semester in college and very intimidated by everything (aka me lol).

Mr. Webb was a great instructor. The class I took was really lecture-focused, but the lectures were entertaining and he had lots of great, funny stories to tell. I really recommend taking a class of his if you need a history credit.

Easily my favorite professor at SWIC. Professor Webb is extremely accommodating, hilarious, and full of energy compared to most of the professors at SWIC. While his tests can be a bit difficult, the final exam, paper, and attendance points can score you an easy passing score. Easy credits for history.

The class is largely graded over attendance and tests, so showing up is important. Mainly lecture and discussion based, some reading would be good before the test to ensure you are more familiar with the material. Overall, a great professor who helped re-spark my interest in history, with a funny and light-hearted personality.

This class was perfect over the summer, with clear assignment requirements, generous due dates, and great workloads. The subject matter was interesting overall and the textbook was covered in perfect time, I recommend this as a summer course. Expect weekly attendance postings, one couple paragraph post every few weeks, one paper, and 3 tests.

Very clear criteria and expectations, with very tame amounts of work. Insanely laid-back and easy to talk to, one of my favorite instructors. Class material was interesting and fun to learn!

Professor Webb's HIST101 class is a fun, engaging experience. Lectures are entertaining, and he really connects the material to modern-day relevance. To succeed, attend class, read the textbook, and use study tools like unstuck ai for prep. Solid history credit.

He tries to make learning History fun. Can't be mad about that. Study for the tests and you should be fine.

Does not take long to respond to emails, very respectful, fixes mistakes on her end. Assignments are easy, she doesn't ask for much just literally read a chapter and write one or two paragraphs a week. Tests are kind of scary but there's only 2 plus the final.
