I enjoyed this class. He knows his stuff but expects people to pay attention and study. As long as you put the time in and know how to write decently, you will do well. Also, attend every class meeting if possible.

Also enjoyed his class. If you attend everyday you will get through the class. Take notes. He's not tough if you at least turn in your work.

Dr. Kallman is a very helpful and good profesoor.

Dr. Kallman is a good instructor who likes his students to show up on time and pay attention. He DOES NOT studder though. He is very smart, and knows his stuff. Although his lectures can be a little on the "long" side they are interesting and in

Dr. Kallman is a good teacher. He expects good work and attendence, but if you do that you will pass. I appreciate a teacher that takes his job seriously and has a passion for what he is teaching.

Don't you hate smart people who complain about a "B"? Very easy class. You're suppose to do the reading BEFORE hand, which is why he quizzes you in the first place. Its called a syllabus, read it. Papers are easy. He gives essay tests, but he grades more on content than on grammar. If you do the reading and LISTEN to lecture, you should do fine.

Kallman is passionate about history and it intrigued me and i hate history. All you have to do is do the reading before class which he tells you to read ahead of time. His tests seem scary at first but if you do the reading you will do fine. Interact in lectures it helps. He is a great teacher.

Extremely intelligent with a cynical sense of humor. Be prepared for nothing but pure lecture for at least an hour, and at least 1-2 hours of homework dedication (which is just reading the book). There will be a book critique at the end of the semester, so prepare for that EARLY. Teaching methods: That of a UC Berkeley professor. Hard, but good.

Very dedicated teacher. Knows his stuff. Requires his sudents to actually do their work, but has a reasonable amount of work to do at any time. His passion and love of the subject really shines through.

This class is only hard for students who do not try. I love this teacher, he's my favorite at delta so far. He is one of the few teachers I've had who really care about teaching. He really wants his students to work for their grade, he's the best

Dope teacher, quizzes are not bad if you do the readings and the tests are even easier if you were present for most of his classes there's no reason you could fail

He's the best history teacher on campus. Though he does have difficult tests, he teaches you how to love history. He makes history come alive, and not as some boring memorization of facts, dates, and events. He should be in a university!

I took him again. Great experience. You can get an A or B if you show up, do the readings, and listen to lectures. He's a cool teacher.

This class was easier, than US History I and II. He just kept getting better with each class. I took my last class with him in Spring 2004.

He's a great teacher. He made me love history, when I came in hating history. He gives you a quiz on the reading material. Some have said that he tests over stuff not covered...that's not true. You are supposed to read the material first, then you take

entertaining

Very clear on what he has to say and passionate. His quizzes take a lot out of you, but you just need to read the work ahead of time. His lectures are interesting and he makes taking notes easy to do. I recommend his class to anyone who wants to learn.

i actually enjoyed his class. while his views were biased, he was upfront about everything and liked having our input.

I found Dr. kallmans class enlightening,and enjoyed it immenseley.And by the way, everybody has a right to thier opinion,so if you drop his class because you disagree with his opinion, then you're missing the point.

He is an awesome professor that is not afraid of speaking his mind. He is very straight forward with everything. You HAVE TO read his assigned readings in order to get a decent grade. He gives about a quiz a week. If you like history and dont mind a little extra work, take him for sure!

This is not the easiest class. Professor expects students to act like college students and requires alot of work. You can't goof off and pass. Must read all assigned readings for a weekly quiz over them. You have two essay assignments out of class on readings. Two Midterms are essay questions and key term short answer. Final is comprehensive.

Highly recommend his online classes. I took 2A and 30A and fared really well in both. You will have to study a lot, but this is college after all!! Great classes. Thumbs up to Dr. Kallman.

Attend the classes and do minimal reading and you will be fine. Explains history and makes it interesting, always tying in what you are learning with what is happening now.

This class was hard, but as long as you pay attention, and Read the assignments you will do fine. Do not slack with the paper. He's hard, but he kept it interesting. If you don't like reading, don't try this professor.

I have taken 2 classes with this Prof and highly recommend him. Come to class and pay attention alot of what is on the tests and quizzes are covered in class. He really knows his stuff and is willing to listen to opposing opinions

Kallman is the greatest. If you stay with the study guide, you can't go wrong. Anyone who doesn't like this guy just doesn't want to learn. The BOMB teacher.

There was a lot to learn and it is proven that you know what you have studied when you watch a documentary about a time in history, and you know what your looking for.

Great guy and his lecture's are very interesting! However, you do have to read a lot, the test are from the book not the lecture,there is rarely an opportunity for extra credit and he grades hard on your essay's. Luckily, you don't have to write that much. Do the reading and you'll be fine!

Good guy, he makes history as interesting as possible...but its still somehow boring. His tests DO NOT come from his lecture! You MUST read the book to do well in this class.He gives you a study guide which helps a lot. If you do not want to read then DO NOT take this class. He'll make you work for your grade. Also you have to write a book review

Awesome and knowledgeable teacher. Especially great if you plan on majoring in History--his class WILL prepare you for university-level History classes.

I took this class online (I also took the history 2B with same teacher). The courses were not easy but they were fair. Also, each class had a required essay but if you did not wait until the week it was due, it wasn't too hard. If you want to think of history in a different way you might enjoy these classes.

I took his online class. LOTS OF READING. But as long as you actually read the chapters and take notes you should do fine on the tests. Critical Book Review towards the end of the semester. Make sure you know your stuff for the discussion questions. (theres 2 for each unit)Tough class, but a good grade is attainable, if you actually try.

Hard class with a lot of reading. I thought that I would be able to do the assignment without doing the reading, but the wasn't the case. READING IS A MUST! This class is the history of Islam and I honestly had no interest in learning about Islam. Reading assignments with about 80-100 pages/week. 1 quiz/week. 2 discussion board questions/week

An amazing teacher who is genuinely passionate about History. Never too busy to offer help, always willing to work with people who have problems with the course, as long as they are honest with him and speak directly about it. Excellent lectures, write down EVERY WORD he says or puts to the blackboard, because it's all relevant. No Bull in here.

Passed with an A and the class seemed easy because I never even got the books that was required LOL

This professor is great. He is extremely detailed and will help you understand the material if ask. I took his class once and did not pass (my own fault) because I just could not put in the time to do the work. His tests are very hard and take the whole 40 minutes to complete. I think it's a great class to prepare for college.

Top notch Prof, open minded and very knowledgeable in what he teaches. but a class not for the lazy.

Easy Class. Very straight forward. one essay and long detailed tests that are lw easy. 8 quizzes that are relatively simple, vocal and dates. Do discussion post and a solid job on essay and its a guaranteed passing grade. *

Taking 6C rn and it's awesome! Yes, you must study hard but quizzes are absolutely fair. Do not let bad reviews fool you, don't miss out on an amazing class and prof! He will answer emails quickly and makes the discussions extremely interesting. Midterm was great, 100 m/c. I was hoping to take US hist with him in the spring but he teaches 6C again.

Class is not for lazy peeps, be prepared to actually KNOW what you read or you won't pass tests. 16 discussions (2 per module), 8 tough tests, midterm is 100 questions in 100 min, final is 125 questions in 125 min; book report about 1500 wds. I do recommend taking his class; you'll learn a lot and the subject is very well taught and interesting.

I just took Dr.Kallman this summer, I was hesitant to because of the bad reviews but I would take him again. His class consisted of about 2 discussions a week on the assigned reading following a quiz. There are 4 exams total and a research paper. The hardest part of this class is the research paper but just do your work and study and you'll be ok.

An old school method teacher. Do the work on time and not cheat and you'll be ok. Will heavily deduct your grade if caught, not recommended. If Summer class, extremely condensed so lots of reading. Textbook 100% required. Not as hard as other reviews state. Don't take this class if you want easy credits or want to cheat. Very straightforward.

Prof Kallman is a very old school teacher. Would grade assignments without any commentary so if you got a very low score, he wouldn't tell you why. Discussion posts and timed quizzes weekly w/ required textbook. Do not cheat, do work on time (he gives a week in advance to do discussion posts). Time consuming class but was a fairly easy class.

Honestly my favorite teacher I've had this semester. The work is straightforward, there's nothing that's not answered by the book, and the workload is extremely doable. I'm glad I didn't go off of reviews to pick this class, tbh I'd take it again
