She was very nice and extremely helpful. Class was kind of boring sometimes and her grading is hard unless you know what she's looking for. She tries to make this class as easy as possible by giving study guides but studying for these tests takes a long time.

She is a very helpful, and nice professor. Her tests were a little hard, but overall she explains everything in well detail.

This class is definitely worthwhile. Dr. Whited is extremely well versed in the subject. The chronology of the French Rev gets a little lost in the analysis, but you'll feel like a French Rev/Napoleon expert when you're done. A LOT of reading and note taking, but if you ask questions when you don't understand you will truly benefit from the course.

Her class wasn't the easiest. Class was all mostly lecture and there is alot of reading. She is very approachable, and willing to help in any way possible. If you do the reading and pay attention in class you will be fine.

you really have to read the chapters she gives you, it's a lot but it's worth it to pass her tests.

Great teacher. Put in the effort and you will do well.

Dr. Whited is the best teacher at IUP. I learned so much in the class. Everyone should stop whining and realize that this is college!

Dr. Whited is adorable. You can tell that she actually is interested in what she is teaching, which made it more interesting for me. Her quizzes and exams were hard, but you should do ok if you took the time to study. She offered at least 3 different extra credit assignments. She says "Ok" after every sentence.

Professor Whited is an excellent teacher. If you are lazy, take someone else; if you want to learn, take her class.

Second time I've had her for class. Excellent professor. Challenging but in a way that helps you learn. Very intelligent, knows her stuff, and cares for students. Always helpful in office hours. Makes French history interesting. Class was jammed full of information. Exams were difficult but fun!

I like this professor and her class. She is hard but fair, and I didn't find her boring at all. Took her for 195 and French History class. People who are complaining might want to consider that they can't write a review without multiple writing errors--very telling of the students, and not surprising that they would rate Dr. Whited poorly.

I've had Dr. Whited for several classes, including HIST 195. Has high expectations in all classes and values class participation, especially thoughtful questions. Uses lecture outlines - just be sure to take copious notes!For 195: try the online study guides for the textbook. Kind and caring, too...she can be intimidating at first but is so sweet!

This class was very challenging, but I learned so much about European history from it. I really want to take another class with her. Be sure you are a good writer if you take this course, because that is what most of the assignments entail. Also be prepared to read textbook thoroughly for quizes!

Dr. Whited made all course material available via moodle, so lecture outlines were always posted. There are 3 quizzes that can be challenging and the midterm and final are the same format. She is a tough grader when it comes to papers. Overall, she is a very nice professor

I thought her lectures and notes were very much to write and comprehend, but if I got everything down okay and the notes were relatively easy to follow. She expects the class to answer many questions. Material is easily accessible on Moodle.

French Rev&Napoleon was best class I've taken at IUP and she is by far my favorite professor! I would recommend her to anyone. The most intelligent person I've ever met & has sincere care for students. Some writing assignments are difficult, and MUST read the book.If you keep up with notes readings & material all semester,short essay exams are easy

I was actually looking forward to taking european history. I do warn you though this class can be extremely hard, I was fortunate enough to survive with a low B. Class is manditory and counts for 10% of your grade. She has 4 exams over the semester that are worded to make the questions very hard (drops the lowest scoring). I wouldn't recommend

This woman is great. I went to her office many times throughout the semester. She is so helpful and she knows what she is talking about in lecture. She gives great advice. If you are a history major, you definitely need to take her before you leave. But make sure you are prepared to work and learn!

Perhaps other majors require less intellect and that's why others struggle. I've taken her a few time and recieved A's. Her humor is unique, her grading is a little more challenging than average but not bad if you know how to read and comprehend. Her vocabulary is certainly above average, maybe that's the issue some of you are having.

One of the most helpful professors I have ever had. She is wonderful and kind.See her for help with your writing assignments, if you do this you will be fine. She will point you in right direction! You must read in order to do well! Do not do your assignments at the last minute, she is not dumb and she can tell who does their work and who does not!

Dr. Whited was a really nice professor. Get ready to read, but the readings help with the tests and she does tell you what is important to remember. Attendance is important since she does not post the Power Points online. Nice lessons, easy to understand.

I had Dr. Whited in the Honors College, and she was great! She assigns a lot of writing assignments, but returns them in a timely manner and with a lot of feedback. You can tell she really wants her students to work and learn, which shows that she cares. Also, if you ever need help, she answers emails and is there to help during her office hours!

Dr. Whited is a great professor one of the best at IUP. She's excitable and gets everyone involved.

I really love this professor. She is extremely intelligent and made the class even more enjoyable for me. Easy to talk to and gives great feedback! I had to purchase 3 textbooks for this course but she put a lot of our reading assignments onto Moodle which was really nice to have.

I really enjoyed Dr. Whited's classes! She was very caring and positive. I feel liked I learned so much in her history class that I did not know before! If you have the chance to take her, do it!!

Honestly, this was an extremely interesting class with a the focus on WWI. She seems very well informed on the topic, and seems to really care. I will say that her tests are pretty hard; you definitely need to start studying the material as soon as you take the notes. Paying attention and studying will help you pass easily though.

Yes her class takes work but you will learn. Anyone disgruntled with the amount of effort just wants an easy A. Well if you actually do the work, it is an easy A. She is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the subject. Her instructions are clear and her feedback is helpful.

Great prof. Never had an interest in history before I took her class. Always available during office hours and super helpful, answers all questions. Reading outside of class but it's on the tests. Definitely makes you work for the A

In HIST 197 Dr Whited's lectures were very well explained and easy to follow. She doesn't make us memorize dates. She gives us the big picture of historical events. The pacing of the class was great! She covered all the material that we needed to know for finals. She shows a few videos so it isn't all lecture. There is not too much homework.

I needed an online humanities class and chose this class on world war I. Read the bio on Dr. Whited and IUP is lucky to have her. The syllabus spells all the requirements out and the information for the quizzes, exams and discussions are right there. Great information on WWI and how it relates to present day events happening. Loved it!

Absolute favorite professor I have had at IUP. Some people definitely struggle with this course though, if you're not very good at making connections between readings this may not be for you. Overall, as long as you come to class you should be perfectly fine.

HIST of 19th c europe was great! She knew how to help us. Both midterms and finals were difficult but possible to pass. There's plenty of assignments to raise your grade. Classroom participation and attendance count for points. There were 2 essays for 150 points each. The textbook was very cheep to find online. Every other reading was free on d2l.
