She provides tutoring and slide review in preparing students for tests. A term paper is required to pass in order to pass the class. Tests are both multiple choice and slide description.

Good luck! Very challenging

you can get an A if you plan to be a dedicated student..there are many study sessions and workshops available for her class-they're definitely worth going to. expect massive amounts of in class notes. she's nice

Not warm & fuzzy, but knows her stuff. Remember it's more *history* than *art.* Tough class, tough lectures, tough tests. OTOH lots of slide reviews, paper seminars and tutoring available. If you're up to the challenge, you can get an A.

Fell asleep most of the time but she is a really good teacher, funny sometiemes too but u have to really study hard. Her tests are multiple choice & little essays. Do well on the museum paper...counts for alot.

on sabbatical? you sit in a dark auditorium, very cozy, get to sit back, watch slides, listen to lecture, take notes. she did not talk about her family. she's professional & doesn't tolerate jackoffs, but she's not cold. no big essays in 4D.

Her paper was graded harshly. Her tests are ok, but the course is not as difficult as people say it is.

hard but good

the best

Mrs. Haynes conducts her class with professionality and does her best to teach everyone the material. It's not an easy class though, and you might find yourself dozing off sometimes unless you're really interested in Art History. Good teacher though.

Course is easy as long as you do the reading and go tot he tutoring :) Shes really fun.

Professor Haynes goes to great lengths to give lectures that are clear and concise. She is professional yet approachable. Class involves lots of notes, and make sure to do your reading before class. Term paper workshops, slide reviews, and tutoring is available outside of class, and is helpful!

great teacher

very interesting class but challenging

You can't be lazy in her class and you gotta read the materials. She seemed like she was really interested in what she was teaching, even though I didn't think so, but I do admire her attitude.

She is extremely well organized professor and knowledgeable on her subject. She goes the extra mile to supply tutoring and term paper workshops. If you really want to learn: this class will challenge you. Not for the lazy! Otherwise go take some other dope, which has never even seen what’s on the slides in person. Haynes is the definition of an ed

This class was pretty challenging, lots of images/facts to learn. It's not impossible to get a good grade but you must study her lecture and read the book.

I really enjoy this class, It reminds me of a private tour of a muesem. Im surprized that some people find this a difficult class. Just stop talking and take notes and maybe you'll do good. Shes very organzied and provides workshops and tutoring. Over all this is a wonderful class.

She teaches well and gets her point across. The only problem is she doesn't really remember you by name (one of those teachers who just know you by number) You have to talk to her after class and make yourself love the subject. Then you'll actually enjoy the class. Its pretty easy, you just have to stay awake and apply yourself.

the people who gave her a bad score bust be slackers. this is college and it is amazing how many people out there can't handle it. this is art history- it is demanding. get over it. if you read the material, you will get an A. grow up people.

I loved the way she gave her lectures. They sounded very professional, and this was reinforced even more when I noticed how the subs gave the lectures. I liked the way she dressed, very presentable. The only thing is that she is kind of strict in grading when it comes to the assignment where you have to visit a museum. I learned a TON in here.

She is very knowledgeable and funny. She has seen a lot of the art and makes it very real to learn about.

she is a very knoweldgable teacher, youll learn a lot from her, the only thing is she doesnt like it when you ask her questions ( yea i dont get it either *shrugs*)

she knows exactly what she is talking about.ALL of her class time is lecture and lecture and more lecture. you better take good notes and write good essays( she is english major). I did very well with all tests but bombed my final to recieve a final B in her class. Her essays are harsh.

Watch out for her tests! Write down everything she says, and double check your essays before turning them in bc she's harsh. One good thing, if u're unhappy with the paper's score, she'll read it again to make sure she gave you a fair grade. She gave me 11 extra points the 2nd time aroun1d! If you show you care, she'll do the same.

she is very informative and excited about her subject, do the extra credit and pay attention you will be fine!

her tests are very easy compared to Prof.Futhner. they are mostly multiple chioce with some essay but short essays. i missed one test and got a b on another and still managed to get an A. shes verry knowlegable and realy ets into the subject

Excellent speaker, professional in appearance and presentation. She will give you exactly the grade you deserve, just pay attention, study hard and prepare for the tests (which are typically easier than most art history classes) Not recommended for lazy students.

Very clear and precise information. she talks fast so it can be diffifult to take notes but I found that I did better on test than I expected to. she is passionate about what she does and I learned a great deal.

Beware of this teacher and her crazy grading. If you can pay attention to verbal lectures and take really really good notes, you'll be good. Otherwise, prepare to study your butt off and get your papers and tests shoved back at you with her dispassionate, high-and-mighty, "I know better than you" smirk.

great teacher very active , though long lectures most are fairly interesting and not to har grader take good notes and listen and class should be a walk in the park....

She is sooo good! Great teacher, she knows her stuff. Her explanations are just wonderful and very clear. If you want to get good grades, sit in the front row. Just be consistent and study smart! I got an A in her class! She's so dedicated and she doesn't intimidate students! If you just attend class every meeting, you're good.

I went into this class dreading it. But to my suprise I fell in love with art history from day 1. Prof Haynes is very knowledgeable in what she teaches and is very enthusiastic when lecturing. There are 3 tests (lowest one gets dropped) a term paper and a final. TIP: do not fall asleep in class because every class is important!

She made me love art history!!! She is very well spoken and enthusiastic. Do not show up to class late. This is a very scholarly class, you will learn a lot but you have to apply yourself. Read the text and follow along in the class and you'll do good!

I really enjoyed being in her class. She knows what she's actually talking about. Due to her, I have decided to change my major to Art History. If you attend classes everyday it might be a hard class to get an A on. Most of the tests are based on her lectures. She has a great quality of online resources. Her museum assignment was pretty fun.

I loved this class. Class is based on lectures, but she make it interesting. If you take good notes and study then tests aren't too difficult. She is a great teacher!

HARD CLASS! if you take it just because the GE requirement, i highly recommend take someone else.

HARD CLASS! if you take it just because the GE requirement, I highly recommend to take someone else. for the test, the multiple choice part is easy, but the description part is really hard. i don't think anybody can get 100 point on her test.

Relies heavily on note taking. You just have to show up for class, take notes and remember them for the tests Simple as that!!! very much like professros in UCs. So if you plan to transfer, this is the class for you. Trust me, it is NOT hard

Class is pretty hard if your lazy (I was). Tests and quizzes are can be hard if your a bad notetaker/book reader. Projects are dumb, but easy point. Doesn't curve ANYTHING so don't get excited. Does let you drop a lowest test grade prior to finals. Lectures can be boring, if your a good independent person then you won't even need to go to class.

I was excited to go into this class, but unfortunately it ended up being one of my least favorite. Professor Haynes gives long, boring, lectures and often lets class out a little late. She is very passionate about the subject, but her class is UNNECESSARILY DIFFICULT. The tests are VERY detailed and VERY hard. I don't recommend her class AT ALL.

Ms. Haynes is awesome! I took her Art5 online class and yeah it was a lot of work, but it wasn't brain surgery. You're in college; you're going to be expected to do work! I think she's a great teacher. :o) Her class really wasn't that hard.

i can't believe people are complaining.. We r in college! what do u expect! She emphasized that the prereq for her classes are English 1A because there are a lot of readings. People r just unbelievable

I took 1A. Taking 1B this semester. Never even bought the book. I just showed up to lectures and took good notes and still got an A. Tests are ALWAYS ONLY on lectures, so very easy to study. There are only two papers due the whole semester! 2 pages long too! That is not even college level difficulty.

I don't know what's wrong with you guys? Well, anyway, At least i think Ms. Haynes is pretty clear about what she expects from her students right at the beginning of the class...( thus she is extremely clear and thorough about her materials... compared to some other teachers... very organized)

Prof. Haynes is very clear in what she expects of her students and not unreasonably so. She is always very helpful and shares a great deal of information with her classes.

She's actually one of the easier art history professors because she doesn't have a Ph.D on the subject. And yes, she's picky about grammar and spelling because she has a degree in English, and Art1A and 1B are in fact COLLEGE courses. But she's a wonderful professor, easy to contact, and has great study tools on her class website.

people keep complaining about her being so stubborn to curve! the reason why she does not curve is because some people do very well in her class! if you put ur time and effort to this class then it's impossible to get lower than a B. If you do get lower than a B i suggest you go see her.

She grades fairly :) The information during lectures is a bit much to soak in if you haven't read the chapter beforehand. Do your best to stay awake and you should be fine. She reviews what she wants for the tests very well. It's not really mandatory to be there everyday, but I suggest you do because the tests are based on lectures, not readings.

Pure lecture class. 3 test (one a take home test) and a 2pg essay & final. Easy. She even throws out one test. Skim the book and take lots of notes, you'll be fine. She cracks me up but I dont think she's trying to be funny.

Her class is all lecture and power point, she's a good professor who is very passionate about art. Easy workload.

I loved this teacher! She really knows her stuff and she provides you with all the information you need to succeed in the class. If you don't plan on going to half the classes then don't take the class. She's a great lecturer and her knowledge makes the subject very interesting

I love her! She's so crazy and passionate. Her lectures are so engrossing and wonderful~! She offers a lot of extra credit. I recommend taking her especially if you love art history!

The people complaining were either slackers or stupid. You won't get an easy A in her class, you have to actually WORK for your grade *gasp*. She even says it on the first day of class, be prepared to work or drop the class! Took her and got an A w/o kissing a$$. She is a very clear & thorough teacher. I would def. take a class with her again.

Anyone that thinks this class is too difficult is a fool. Im getting a b in the class, and what I do is I come to class, I sit in the front and I listen. I rarely take notes, and I fall asleep from time to time. If you want to pass the class, all you have to do is listen to the lecture and do the tests and museum project. Simple class.

Tests on every chapter. Mostly multiple choice and some short answers. Two essays, two page for each. She grades very strict on essay writings, but tests are fairly easy as long as you attend the class and take good notes. You can see that she's really into some subject and very enthusiastic about the topic. GO TO HER OFFER HOUR! You'll get a lot!

Honestly, this class is very informative and interesting if you give it a chance. Prof H. is passionate about her classes, so she wants to challenge and prepare you for university work, not an easy A. Out of all the Art/H profs I've had she's been the most fun n articulate about the subject. READ, Study, Take good notes. 2exams,1takehome, 1 final

Yes, you really do have to work to get an A in any of Sandra's classes - you cannot afford to slack off. Only take this class if you have a genuine interest in art history. Sandra is very passionate about the subject, which made the class very enjoyable for others who shared the same passion.

Her class is really interesting, but make sure that you don't miss any of her classes, because she talks really fast, and you get tons of info in just one class. For tests you have to memorize a bunch of different art works, so make sure you actually STUDY!! Her class is big, so sit in the front, it's SO MUCH easier to pay attention!!

Literally everything on the tests are covered in her lectures so don't buy the textbook. It is supplementary at best. DON'T BELIEVE HER LIES. Not an easy class, but she's a fair grader. She's a stickler for grammar however, and, I think, for penmanship as well. That said, the subject is interesting as are her anecdotes of the places she's visited.

Professor Haynes is such a sweetheart! She can be tough at times, but you really have to work for your grade. If it isn't with your major and is just for a general ed, I suggest taking an easier class. The topic is interesting, but you seriously have to take notes and study for the tests in order to get at least a 90! Final is comprehensive.

Professor Haynes leads a interesting and knowledge-filled course. The lectures can get a bit boring, but if you're into history they're fun. You MUST either pay great attention during lectures or read the book(my preference) to pass test. EXTREMELY random questions. Paper is easy and enjoyable. Meet her for help. She's nice and gives good advice.

This is a hard class, but you will learn a lot. The text book will make studying easier. Lectures are fast and furious! Not boring. Questions are tricky. Fair grader and willing to help if you ask and show interest. If you have little interest in this subject better take a different class. Notice the poor reviews come from those with low interest.

Took her for Art 1B and I really enjoyed it. I took this class as a General Ed so I am no expert but I did really well. First week of class she put us into groups and that is the group you will have for the whole semester. Quizzes everyday on lecture videos you watch on canvas. 1 take home essay, a museum report and a group final. Enjoyed the class

This was an interesting class. Your not gonna be producing any art. Its more of the history and the way things are done. She does the lecture and then give you your weekly project due the night before the next class. You really have to follow the directions she gives for each assignment and read the outlines carefully before doing it.

"Flipped classroom" style, assigned reading along with Canvas pre-recorded lectures followed up with quizzed every meeting on the material. Strict but fair, clear with her expectations, she can be sassy. If you take this for GE, you will work your butt off but learn a lot. I'm taking her again for 1A.

Difficult tests- be prepared to match 25 paintings to their artists, date, style, etc. from memory. You're given everything you need in the study guides, but it is essential that you STUDY. Take advantage of the extra credit opportunities, pay attention in class, and you'll have fun. Interesting and concise lectures from a good professor.

Course is pretty difficult. memorize tons of information along with their images. Tests are moderately difficult. Essays not bad. Must write in college level English. I honestly think the course should be worth 4 to 5 units rather than just 3. She is a sweet heart, and crystal clear. Read the text, memorize images, and study hard then you'l be fine

Not an easy class, you will have to work for your grade! But if you read the assigned textbook chapters and study for exams, you should be fine! Written assignments are easy, just reference the textbook and do not overthink them. Also, lectures are easy to follow and are very interesting.

Great instructor. Working in a flipped classroom environment. Very enthusiastic.

This class was a lecture class, so there wasn't much interaction with the professor, but she is very knowledgable about art. It's helpful all her lectures are available online incase you miss a class or need to go over a lecture again. There's a lot to remember, so reviewing on your own is crucial. Oh, and she is not a fan of students leaving early

Sandra Haynes is definitely underrated here. She's very knowledgeable and serious about her field of expertise. She doesn't put up with slackers so keep up and READ. She appreciates participation so speak up. STUDY HARD! Some of my classmates said they weren't art majors and wanted an easy way through history THIS IS NOT AN EASY WAY OUT!

1A class was fairly interesting. I LOVE her lecture because she makes art history really fun! This class requires heavy notetaking, so put your effort on taking notes from her lecture (it would be really helpful). Textbook is not needed, but attend every class, pay full attention to her lecture, and study before exams then you will enjoy this class

Very influential, helped me pass the class with the final!

The start can be intimidating, the key parts are watch the lectures, quizes, be prepared for surprise no-prep group presentations (hence always watch the lecture videos before class) and the research paper is a heavy weight on the overall grade! Not too big on the group aspect of the class, as group members can be hit or miss. Textbook never used.

I loved this class. Assignments were due weekly, but they were straight forward and easy to do. If you couldn't submit the assignment, just contact her and she will re-open it if your reasoning seems legit. No midterm or final, but there were weekly OPEN book quizzes. Hard to not get an A.

I believe you should take her class if you truly would like to learn the material and this course is very interesting because you get to watch videos and look at different artworks that are very eye-catching. Ofc this class isn't an easy A but it's a class in which it shows the amount of work you do. There is extra credit but not that much.

I had the flipped classroom where we study with our assigned group mates and once in awhile she'd lecture for ab 10 minutes at the beginning of class. I was taking 3 other classes at the time, but I liked her class. You should be fine as long as you watch the videos, take notes, and read (not too many pgs usually).

You definitely have to put in the work by watching the eLearning videos and textbook reading, along with doing the discussions and projects. As long as you start the work early in the week, this class is easy and manageable. You cannot be lazy though, if you are, you will not pass.

I've taken her class twice, first was 1b and second class was 1a. Attend her class, try not to miss a day. She drops 3 quiz grades which is great. Quiz (10 q) is everyday so attendance is def mandatory but they are easy if you have watched her lectures. Theres 1 essay, 1 final "unkown", a few "unkowns", and short quizzes;seems a lot but not really

She was so sweet, understanding, and the most organized and ready online class I've taken. I was in her arthist1a class, now I'm taking her 1b class this semester. It is an adequate amount of work, but each week is no surprise on what you'll be doing. Her quizzes are open-notes and open-book, which honestly helps remember the material.

Professor Haynes is great! I took her online course.The quizzes are open book which in all honesty her quizzes are based off her lectures. If you watch her lectures you'll do fine on the quizzes. Her assignments are not hard at all. However you do have to put in the work for her discussion posts. She gives extra credit opportunities as well.

Haynes class is very easy 2-4 quizzes a week (open book) which seems like a lot but they are extremely easy, you just need to download the lecture transcript and you can find the answers, the textbook is free to download. She is caring if you reach out to her she will help. Recommend taking for need an easy A. Her lectures are 10-30 minutes long.

Pro. Haynes's online course is fun and interesting. She uploads lecture videos that range from 30-50 minutes long, some modules have multiple. Take notes on the videos and you won't need the textbook for the weekly quizzes. Very few assignments. There are 2 essays, both pretty simple. Extra credit is available. The discussion posts can be tedious.

Canvas course is very well organized, and the workload is very manageable. I don't really like the discussion assignments but it's hard to complain with an A. Professor certainly is passionate about the subject and that's pretty cool.

Very demanding for an online course as a freshman but wonderful course to truly explore several concepts of art in activities that are engaging. No actual art was made, just studying the meaning of it by analyzing modules & adding personal touches which made all the writing easy. Take if ur genuinely interested in learning ab art, not a GPA boost.

Definitely an easy class if you keep up with the course work and the readings. Lectures are easy to follow. Quizzes are based on the textbook and/or whatever is in the module. Written assignments are straightforward, so if you stick to the rubric, you should be fine.

Easiest class ever, just do your work and keep up with lecture videos (not even hard). Did not even buy textbook, weekly 1-3 quizzes on lecture, and a discussion post. Open note quizzes, so use ur resources. Tons of extra credit, ended with a 105% only doing 2/4 easy extra credit opportunities. Responded to email about group partner not doing work.

tests/quizzes are fairly easy since it's open textbook. I would say that discussion boards, projects, and papers we had to do in class were fine. They're just tedious but you can definitely do good on those assignments. I got A's on all of my quizzes and assignments so I'm not complaining too much + there's no final. Overall, solid professor.
